Accountability - Monday

I had a really nice day. I went out to lunch with the girls in our office..I rarely get to do that because we have different lunches so I asked my boss to change my lunch this once and it was fun! And tonight I was going to go out to dinner with my husband but decided against it and had a relaxing time at home..
 

5:30 am 1/4 serving protein waffles with 1/2 tablespoon flax seeds (this whole week is going to have this added to the mix) with 1/2 apple and 1/3 serving sugar free syrup  

6:00 am 12 oz coffee w/NSA Swiss Miss  

7:00 am 24 oz Drink Mix, GV Strawberry  

8:30 am 1 oz mozzarella cheese stick, 1 pc turkey breast deli meat, 1 cup raw grapes  

9:00 am small piece of Pillsbury Sugar Free Yellow Cake with sugar free frosting, 1/24 of the whole cake. A single serving is 1/12 of the whole mix. This was really good and I highly recommend it...I'm going to make a pineapple upside down cake with this, this Christmas..  

10:00 am 24 oz Drink Mix, Hawaiian Punch Berry Limeade  

12:30 pm 12 oz Drink Mix, Morning Spark Grapefruit Caffeinated  

1:00 pm (ate at Hometown Buffet) 1 cup minestrone soup, 1 baked chicken leg, 2 oz baked fish, 1 cup salad greens(broccoli salad, cole slaw, sunflower seeds), low cal italian dressing - brought back a small piece of reduced sugar apple pie but never got a chance to eat it cuz I was stuffed completely. Maybe tomorrow!  

2:30 pm 12 oz Drink Mix, Morning Spark Grapefruit Caffeinated  

3:15 pm 24 oz Drink Mix, Hawaiian Punch Orange  

6:00 pm 4 oz chicken thigh, cooked and 1/2 cup spaghetti sauce, then the reduced sugar apple pie from lunch. yum.

7:00 pm 24 oz Drink Mix, Hawaiian Punch Orange (I think the minestrone was too salty..too thirsty today!)

Well, the apple pie wasn't the smartest of choices and I didn't eat a whole apple today...the grapes weren't as good as the apple but there is always tomorrow..I did alright..How did you do? 

Nice post and very helpful insight into maintenance.

When you get to maintenance it's sort of a foreign concept for most of us MO people..Myself I never stayed stationary in weight. I was ALWAYS either going up or going down..so when I found this accountability thread being maintained by a soon to be friend of mine years ago, I jumped on and it's been very therapeutic for me! I also have fun seeing what others eat and it always gives me an idea for the next meals..It's kind of like a very public blog for me. Lately not many have posted but alot are looking..That's okay. I don't do it for just them or just myself..

I have to say this is the longest period in my life (3 years +) that I've stayed nearly the EXACT same weight. This morning 128.8 but then I"m up a pound to a pound and a half due to water gain for that time of the month..I've REALLY gotten to know my body!

Sorry it was so hard to read. Sometimes the line spacing messes with me. I've fixed it.

I had a pleasant Monday. Lunch with the girls is always a treat!

Well, all in all the late night snacks weren't a total deal breaker but I know what you mean. It's a bad habit to get started..You tried to stay good even after the cheetos but...it got pretty late and the resolve faded..I can TOTALLY relate!

Run an  extra mile and you're absolved. LOL. j/k. Have a great day!
