Holding Myself Accountable (Day 2)

Well yesterday wasnt too bad really. Because I scheduled my meals with a snack, I almost felt like I was eating all the time. Here is what I ended up doing - a little modified from the original plan: Breafast - Protein shake Lunch - 2 hard boiled eggs, 1c Jello Snack - Stick of cheese, Protein shake, 2 Hersheys Kisses Dinner - 1 hard boiled egg, 1c Jello 830pm snack at night job - Protein shake 1145pm snack at night job - 90cal Chewy Granola bar Total: 775 calories, 94g+ protein Today is going to be about the same but instead of the Chewy granola bar tonight at work I am gonna do a low-carb yogurt. (Total: 724 calories, 103g protein). Today will be harder because it is the second Tuesday of the month. This means at work that we have TREATS in the cafeteria at 3pm to celebrate the month's birthdays. You may have guessed that this usually is not a HEALTHY treat.... and damn my boss for brining in chocolates today! I had ONE so +60cal for today. Well there is nothing like weight loss to motivated you!!! We can all attest to that! Monday Weight: 194.5lbs Today's Weight: 191.5lbs We will see what tomorrow brings!

It sounds like you're doing great!!!! This is a hard time of year so I give you credit for sticking with your plan!!!! And its working so that's awesome!!!! Tracy B

Yea - and its crazy because I get even more motivation knowing that I have that much will power to stick with it!!! LOL - silly minds. We will see what tomorrow bring and then the rest of the week... I might add in some chix breast by the end of the week. I'll keep ya updated... and thanks for the support!

Great start! And, your six month hold at 194 is breaking! Woo Hoo! Sandy

Well I have fluxuated before - I even got down to 189 - so I am not exstatic just yet... but 3 lbs is 3 lbs!!! Jump for Joy

Wow Melissa! You did great. What a good idea to post this. I have been struggling for about a year now. I stayed the same for 10 months and just the last month or two have gone up 5 pounds. I eat too much sugar. I get sick if I over do it, but I still can eat too much. I've been really trying to get back to the basics and everyday I have good intentions and then I don't follow them. But, your idea is great. Keep it up. It gives me incentive and ideas to follow. I'll be boiling eggs tonight. I really wish more graduates posted on this site. I was on the main board for a long time, but so much doesn't fit with where I'm at now. I like coming to this board and see what everyone else is doing. I'll be following your posts! Good luck, Nancy

Yea - I fugure if I didnt post it, then I wouldnt do it... this way everyone *****ads it holds me accountable too! The eggs are GOOD! I will post again in the morning.

Great Job!!! I am going to start this afternoon. It has been a food fest in the office for the past week. Our venders and managers keep buying lunch and breakfast but this is the last luncheon so I am back on track this afternoon!! Keep up the great work!!! Valerie
