Valentines' Day... a land mine of candy & SWEETS TODAY! I had as sweets:  1/2 ounce buttery cookie + 1 bite pudding thing + 2 bites of cake after supper. 6:30= 1/2 scoop prtein pdr + 1/2 c nf milk + 1 tsp psyllium 9:00 = 1/2 protein bar lunch = veggies, feta cheese, 1/4 enchilada, 1 deviled egg Supper out with DH = bento box:  1 c tempura + 3 california rolls + 3 oz teri chicken + 1 c sticky rice + 1 potsticker + 1/2 c salad + hot tea Done for the night. Confession:  after psoting last night, i ate 2 pieces toast - put me over bad for yesterday.  Could not sleep, felt way hungry.

B: Roast Beef, Spicy Hummus, Eggbeaters, Lettuce Rollup L: Herb & Garlic Tuna pack, 1 pita, green leaf lettuce with spicy hummus, 1 naval orange S: 1 oz brie, 1 Kashi Peanut Butter Granola protein bar D: 1.5 bowls lean ground beef spaghetti with mushrooms over wheat rotini noodles Pretty good day overall.  I wasn't hungry. I have another F'ING sinus infection. That could be perhaps why.  I ate only because I knew I should. I was a little hungry at dinner though. I could've forgone the snack but it was routine. I think I will continue to leave out the fruit at breakfast. I'm finding that my breakfast lasts longer and I don't get as hungry if I don't eat fruit during the morning. It's contrary to what my nut says but I'm not gonna go hungry.

Hmmm... I think I had: B: 2 Oh Yeah! Wafers L: 4 oz Gorgonzola/Tomato Chicken D: A piece of artisan bread with olive oil      A bite of chicken      Insides of two cheese canneloni with chicken      Half a piece of chocolate mousse torte      Three chocolate covered strawberries (told ya, not a dumper!) Was great fun and tasty and well worth it-- not counting calories on holidays! This is part of my new lifestyle I've decided on. Dig! -S.
