Last time I tracked my food I did it in a notebook. I also like doing it that way! I would buy cute little half sized notebooks and have fun filling them up.
So what are your goals for April hmmm? ;)
I'm actually not sure what specific goal I have for April. Well, actually I guess it would be to get past and beyond my comfort zone on the dang scale. I know that sounds simple, but I've been having a hell of a time with it for the past several years. So regarding that, I guess I might want to say also that my goal is to stick with my plan the whole month and don't go wondering into different plans. I'm really, really bad at that and it causes me to go off plan all together.
I just had to say one thing. I noticed someone asking someone on how they are counting their calories. I just had to make a comment on this. Over the years I have done it all ways, you name I have done it. Never seems to stick and it always seems like a lot of work. This time I went back to the old fashion way all together. I went back to a notebook and pen to write down everything. I LOVE it! Reminds me that once before I wrote everything down and i did so well on it. I forgot all about that time. Just thought I would put in my two cents. :)

"I got on here for the first time since early 2009 seeking support!! I really need it this time. I hope some of you great ladies will stick around this year. Let's all get back at it. Why not!?! We all did it before- let's support each other again!"
AMEN
My day went OK. My mom came in today and I woke up and rushed out to the airport (2 hrs away) and ate my normal muffin in the car. Lunch was tricky because she wanted to eat out and I just have a hard time with that. We stopped at Jason's Deli and I got a turkey sandwich off the "Light" menu. I looked it up when I got home: 510 calories WTH!?!
I did get a very easy/light walk in with my mom after we got back home. Her stamina isn't up and I took it easy for her. It just made me happy to see her willing to walk!
Good morning,
Well it's on Wednesday anymore, but I'll still post it here anyway. Yesterday I jinxed myself. I wrote about like four different people tootin' my horn and it blew in my face.lol Yes of course it's about weight loss. I just don't get it why I hold onto weight RIGHT when I start dieting? It just doesn't make sense to me. Anywho, it's not getting me down, well maybe a little, but I'm not giving up. Just very frustrating! grr
Someone just mentioned pizza..sorry, I didn't catch who it was. But I am someone that cannot live without pizza. That is actually a tiny little part of why I wanted to calorie count.lol Just wanted to tell you what I did last night. I chopped up tons of veggies, and a few different kinds of meats, and of course cheese (for every one else..I didn't actually use any). I used flour tortillas as the crust! I not only had pizza sauce (we actually used spaghetti sauce because I didn't have anything else), but I also opened a can of cheddar soup mix. Think the spicy one would probably be better for this. I don't like red sauce that much, so I used this as my sauce. Cooked it in the oven on 400 between 10-13 minutes. It wasn't that half bad! My husband actually really enjoyed it, so did the kids. I'm sure it will start being a regular dinner around here.
