Accountability... what did you eat Tuesday

Now stop that.. you did great.  a couple of mash potatos is not a bad thing...  You are doing so great.. and remember they are not bad bad carbs so once in a while it is fine.  Barely see them on the page.  The cornbread was almost double you mashed potatos.  be good Carla

Yikes. I feel like a fat pig compared to the others. I'm so sorry. Don't attempt this at home. I'm still early out (18 months) and below goal, struggling to get UP to goal and plus 5 pounds..Sorry.  Breakfast: Malto Meal, Soy Milk, Protein Powder, Wheat Germ (5:30 am) Snack: 1 oz cheese stick and a banana (8 am) Lunch: 4 oz moist cooked shrimp, romaine lettuce salad w/tomatoes and Rasp Pomegranate dressing (found it again at Walmart).  (11 am) - Post lunch little snack: 1 oz Bison Jerky while in line to return the boost high protein drink at Walmart. (12:15) Snack: 1 medium Bosc Pear, 1 4 oz Dannon Light/Fit Yogurt, 12 oz V8 Juice (2 pm) Pre Dinner drink: 1/2 a wine cooler, Hawaiian flavor (blue) (5:15) Dinner: Buffalo Steak Burger patty with romaine lettuce and thousand island dressing (6 pm) Dessert: 4 multi grain crackers (8 pm) Totals for the day: Calories: 1757 Fat: 57 Carbs: 175 Protein: 130 In retrospect, that buffalo burger was a bit wasted cuz it's 43 grams of protein. The crackers and fruit made my carb number a bit high (pear=25, banana=28) but no more so than the malto meal (=27).  On a side note, I believe I've found my grandson's other grandmother for him so my research is turning up at least good solid leads. When it gets lighter in the mornings I'll be walking the neighborhood rather than sitting on the computer so much. Hopefully that will help some.  They are complaining at work that I look like I've lost more weight. I insist that I have not but my leggings that were fitting at Christmas are loose. Damn it. So I'm toning up and getting SMALLER..I don't know which is worse. Being a mini blob or a microscopic muscle.. Don't worry, I know how rediculous this sounds. Boo friggin woo on me. Sorry guys.

You are just to silly my friend.. the body is catching up as time goes buy.  I told you I am in a size 0 to 3 right.  they were tight before as well.  I havent lost anything but people keep saying I have.  it comes with the territory.  EXCEPT FOR ONE GUY.... grr.. he said.. "you look good, have you gained weight."  I almost killed him...lol.. Fruit is a good thing. and you are doing great.. remember we all sail our ships differently and are trying to get to different places.  All that matters is we are all here to support eachother and do the best we can to keep that ship sailing upright.  There is no "boo friggin woo" here... For all of us it's a learning process. You little muscle woman... smile... Carla

How do you keep from decking the guy who said you gained weight? I don't have that sort of restraint...

Thanks...I feel better now...
