The first night of a three day weekend? Nobody but me is around, I figure. But I'm still keeping track of my food. I just had NO room for dinner tonight. I didn't have that promised margarita either but we had a nice visit with friends at the casino and our son went too. It's not too often that you can get a 17+ age boy to spend time with his mom and dad. The Buffet was pork loin roast (done perfectly!) with mashed potatoes, greenbeans almondine, gravy, rolls, rice pilaf..salad (two different kinds, one with berries and walnuts). I put roast on the plate, salad, mashed, gravy, beans and a dinner roll. See below to see exactly what I could eat:

5:30 am 10 oz coffee w/NSA Swiss Miss
6:30 am 1/3 cup instant oatmeal, 1/4 cup fine granule TVP, 1 cup plain soy milk, 1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce
7:00 am 24 oz Drink Mix, Fruit Punch
8:00 am 10 oz coffee w/NSA Swiss Miss
9:00 am 1 oz cheese stick, 1/2 medium apple, 2 T Reduced Fat peanut Butter
10:00 am 12 oz Drink Mix, Berry Splash
11:00 am 1 cup lettuce, 4 oz shrimp, 2 slices tomato, 1.5 oz Thousand Island Dressing
11:30 am 12 oz Drink Mix, Berry Splash
1:00 pm 1 medium orange
2:00 pm 24 oz Drink Mix, SoBe Tropical
3:20 pm 1 hardboiled egg
4:15 pm 24 oz Drink Mix, Orange

7:00 pm 4 oz pork loin roast(I figure about the size of a deck of cards), a bite of mashed potatoes and gravy, no greenbeans, a bite of salad and 1/2 a dinner roll..sigh..I didn't even put butter on the roll..

Totals for the day:
Calories: 1587
Fat: 61.7
Carbs: 136.1
Protein: 129.3

Too much protein. I should have left the pork and had the mashed potatoes! But it looked so good.

Oh well, tomorrow is another day. How did you do?

I have myself so convinced that I'll get deathly ill from M&M's they can have huge bowls of them at work (I'm glad they don't!) . but a small fun size is good. I'd be okay if I could stop at one fun size. LOL. That's why I stay away. Can't be done here.

You did really good. Even with the M&Ms you did awesome.

Keep up the good work. See ya.

My children don't come home much anymore. So I had a can of beanie wennies and 4 crackers. Didn't get in much water. Was a real lonely day. Like today will be.

Hi! How great to hear from you. We're always here. Well, not really but someone is always around on the interntet.

Did you get the new house? Did you plant some flowers?  What kind of neighborhood are you in? Nice walking? Nice neighbors?

You just cant count on kids, I figure. I've got myself so ready for this last one to be gone, he'll probably never leave. That's what's great about going to work..lots of people there. Even nasty rotten people are better than no people.

At church last week our sunday school teacher said he went to a convention and heard that the elder group in churches is growing by leaps and bounds but most churches put most of their money and resources into youth services. Finally I'm in a growing group but no one wants to spend money on me. LOL.

You know what you need to do, Girl. You need to get out and meet some people and make a difference..That's a life: making a difference.

I have got settled in now. Been here for about 3 or 4 weeks now. The funeral home I will go to is across the street. I know that is not funny but it kinda is if you knew my kids. The man next door is a police. I feel very safe. I don't worrie about anyone here it is a very nice neighborhood. The best I have ever lived in. It is close to everything. I can see cars passing. I am not stuck down in a dirt road trailer park anymore. God was so good to answer my prayers and get me out of there. I have lots of flowers and cut back a few bushes today. Had 2 men to ask me out tonight. But the only thing is they don't want to go out. If ya know what I mean. I am to broken for sex. Not on my list of things to do. I never thought I would be this lonely. I was looking so forward to being alone. What happen? I guess we get what we ask for. I think I will go and pop in on my son and bug the hell out of him for a while. Thanks for being here. It is so funny people think I have tons of men falling at my feet. And I am the most lonely person in the world. I know God is always with me and my angles. Have a good weekend.

Now if those men who asked you out were good quality men, they'd be nice to get you out of the house and spend time in public but if they don't want more than what they can get...forget it. You're better than that, even broken...No one is that broken!

Around here those dirt road trailer parks are full of mean and nasty dogs. You can't even take a walk because they would kill you as soon as they see you.

You need to find something to do..whether it's tending flowers or just taking a walk around your lovely neighborhood..I'm glad it's a safe neighborhood. We have a neighbor who is a guard at the maximum security prision and that makes us feel very safe!

Is there a way that you can help out the homeless or less fortunate than you? If I didn't work, I'd have projects around the house or go to the food bank and help serve and pass out food to people who have none. Our church holds a souper-dinner once a month where they serve a spaghetti meal. They always need help. My son volunteered there when he had to do community service for school.

Actually, this morning I was 129.4...so I'm up from 127 alittle. I was working out with the wii but haven't in some time.

The idea was to add muscle but I will settle for just being fit. I did the MS walk this year and my time for the 5K was about 15 minutes less than last year. We walked at a pretty good clip. Generally, I do move around alot more than I did before surgery. I have too much energy to sit still even to watch a movie anymore. LOL.
