Hi Youse Guys ... Well looking over everyones posts so far this morning, it seems the concensus is:  bananas=bad, of course I like to put on a couple tbsp of pb  too, so talk about a ship sinker, carbs and fat definately = bad  ...Does this stop me for having them occasionally though, no, just know that I'm going to be very careful of my other choices during the day to balance it all out... Back to the topic at hand - Wednesday's food...Definately could have done better, few too many carbs, was holding on pretty well until dinner...Decided to have a couple of the cocunut shrimp I made for the DH & kids with our fish, just had 2 -OMG- then I looked at the box to put it on my tracking, guess I should have checked the box before I checked them into my mouth ( only 3 shrimps and they were not big by any means = 240 cals, 12 fat, 21 carbs and 12 protein )...Wish I could have given those 2 back for sure ! B - banana/choc protein frappachino       1 shortbread cookie S - chocolate Oh Yeah! protein bar L - 4 oz meatloaf        2 clusters of bacon wrapped aspargus S - 1 sf pb cup       1" square pb fudge D - sm broiled salmon filet       2 cococut shrimp S - 2 sf candies       1 sf  banana - n- chocolate pudding cup PLUS  - 67 oz water/crystal light and 20 oz hot tea Cals  -  1446     Fat  -  75     Carbs  -  115     Protein  -  98 Thursday - new day, better choices, I WILL CONTROL MY DESTINY - I AM THE CAPTAIN OF MY SHIP !!!  .....  Alesia

I think the key as you already stated, is balance. Bananas are not potato chips.  yes they have carbs, but we have to remember good carbs vs bad carbs.  Fit day does not delinate between them, but I believe our bodies do.  What do you all think? 30 grams of carbs from fruit vs 30 grams from p ringles??? Blessings, Tami

Well, I know for sure my body uses the carbs from the fruit ( complex ) more efficiently, the pringles are just a quick carb high...Its one of the reasons I still continue to eat the banana's and also other complex carbs, besides you need carbs to have good brain function... Alesia

I know that feeling. lol.. I've eaten it and than looked and wished I could pull it back out. I have a friend who is always telling me she is only eating 1200 so one day I logged it for her and there it was 2000 calories.. an average day for her. now she logs her food. Food can be so deceiving cause it looks so tiny.. it couldnt be much.. but they say dynomite comes in small packages sometimes.. look at candy verses chicken..hehehehe..

You still had a good day captain. that chocolate monster is a tough one to break.. Our choices resemble each other a bit..lol..

Keep on smooth sailing captain. you have got it.

I know, don't you hate seeing a new weight, but only for a HOT minute...You have still done a fantastic job and have TONS to be proud of even if your bod never lets you loose those last few, whats really important is how far you've come and keeping "the ship" on an even keel...  Alesia
