yeah... you did it and you did good... now you are ready to go back to the real world without all those snack monsters bothering you... Good job... Carla

Bummer. My aunt just told me that wine coolers are made with malt (barley) and so those will be off limits too. I guess I mix my own with tequilla...Bummer. She says I can definately have oatmeal though..That's good. Breakfast: TVP and Mighty Tasty, soy milk and coffee.  Snack: 1 cheese stick and 1 medium orange Lunch (early lunch): 4 egg omelet and chili with cheese (gosh this stuffed me for HOURS) and a couple of bites of hash browns (just to soak up the chili).  Snack: late: 4 oz yogurt and 12 oz of V-8 Dinner: 1 cup of meat loaf made with corn meal instead of bread, left overs. Gave the rest to the dogs cuz it's not all that great and won't do for a third time.  Since I ate really early (6 pm) I may have a snack before bed. Not sure what but maybe an apple or something like that.  Totals (with out dessert): CAlories: 1642 Fat: 71 Carbs: 140 Protein: 113

Nice day for you.. yes a little more would be ok for you.. Sounds like you are learning alot about this new thing you are getting into. Carla

Hello Carla :) My journal is on a different puter which is being hogged by a young houseguest so I have to start journalling on this one for today :P I had an ok day yesterday. I ended in my usual zone of 1800 calories and 25 fiber but low on protein with a meger 95. Just not feeling the hunger I guess... Today has been a little low, so far but I do my best eating at night so we shall see by bed time ;) Have a great night!! HUGS PK
