Acountability - Tuesday

Busy stressful day. But I kept on task and didn't miss much. Hubby made burger patties for dinner and I chose to NOT have the sandwich thin with it. A dab (about an ounce) of meatless spaghetti sauce on it and it was YUMMY..

My eats for the day:

coffee w/NSA Swiss Miss

breakfast: 1/4 recipe protein waffles, 1 nectarine, 1/2 sf pancake syrup

double espresso latte

24 oz iced tea with splenda

24 oz drink mix with the rest of the ice from the tea

1 oz mozzarella cheese, 1 pc deli ham

24 oz drink mix with ice, non-caffeinated

lunch: 2 flour tortillas, 4 oz cooked steak, 3 oz cooked chicken breast, 2 slices processed cheese (yeah, this was a big lunch but it took a long time to eat it)

24 oz drink mix with ice, caffeinated

1 hard boiled egg

24 oz drink mix with ice, non-caffeinated

Dinner: burger patty: 5.5 oz after cooking, 1 slice processed cheese slice, 1 oz meatless spaghetti sauce

Totals for the day (don't faint!)

Calories: 1868
Fat: 98.1
Carbs: 91.2
Protein: 156.0

Really not bad. 35% protein for the day. 19% carbs.

How did you do?

Looks good to me!  It makes me feel better to see your calorie intake vary so much - mine sure does!  Since you are my WLS idol:)

I am still pleased with myself b/c I am posting, tracking and really watching the water thing.  The later is the most helpful!!  I ran yesterday but not today!  Sure, I could use the fitbit, track my carbs, etc, etc, but one day at a time.  That's how I am feeling right now.  I declined going out with friends tonight and went on a bike ride with my son - saved the calories and the $$$!

coffee	50
1/2 avacado	125
chicken sandwich	480
salad (homeade dressing w/ garbonzo beans)	250
1 chicken enchilada	350

Total - 1225

BEST NEWS IN TEXAS:  We are expecting a cool front:)  That means I can start running in the afternoon!!

Happy Tuesday everyeone!

Tomorrow's goal:  LESS CARBS:)

Thanks for the vote of confidence..I really felt let down when my idols early out started to re-gain their weight so I took it to heart when people said "Wait till you gain it all back!" I guess I'm the stubborn kind and "I'll show YOU." attitude. LOL.

beans are a good carb, avocado is a good carb (and good fat)..the only thing wrong with the sandwich is the bread and if you picked whole wheat or whole grain, it's not so bad..I do chicken salad or tuna salad on rolled up romaine leaves. Sometimes I just don't like the carbs that bread adds to my numbers but then I'm an OCD accountant and numbers are my life!

LOL..have a great Wednesday!

 Hello everyone.  I am going to get this posted before I pass out.  Hot and tired.  Good day not much happened.  Food was pretty good, standard not a lot of deviation except for my new cookies which I am in love with...

Here it is:

32oz water and am vitamins
B: 1/2 cup 2% cottage cheese, 14 almonds, 5 prunes, 2 tbsp golden ground flaxseed
Iced venti sugar free vanilla 2% latte
16oz water
L: 1 cup white chicken chili, 1 sugar free almond/banana/oatmeal cookie
48oz water and pm vitamins
D: 2 slices protein bread, 3 thin slices ham, 1 slice cheddar cheese, 2 tbsp cream cheese
S: 3 sugar free almond/banana/oatmeal cookies

Cals: 1605, fat: 63, carbs: 126.5, protein: 114.5

Yay its time for bed.  Sleep tight, stay cool and I'll type at you later :)

Ooooo. Yum on those cookies. it's a GOOD thing I'm allergic to tree nuts. That's probably the only thing that helps me during the holidays. Everyone puts nuts (walnuts, pecans, almonds...) in their baking and even if I wanted to do the sugar stuff or they made them sugar free, I sorta like breathing so no tree nuts for me. Keeps me on the straight and narrow!

I've been scoping out protein bread recipes and I'm gonna probably have to make my own recipe to get the numbers I like.

Keep up the good work. See ya!

Would you be willing to share the recipe for your Almond/Banana/Oatmeal Cookies?  Do they have protein powder in them?  Thanks! 

 Here is the link:

Instead of peanut butter I use the crunchy almond almond butter.  I use Max Protein by SEI (the one that Eggface uses), I used Motts sugar free applesauce and I used roasted, salted almonds and I didn't use any chocolate/carob chips.  When I made my batch I was able to get 20 cookies and my nutritional stats using the ingredients I used were per cookie: cals: 79, fat: 4, carbs: 8, protein: 3

Had my first microdermabrasion yesterday!  

My food:

2 coffee with splenda and 1/2 and 1/2

Breakfast and night snack:
1/4 cup quinoa and small piece of curried chicken

Lunch:
lettuce salad, cucumber, tomato, 1 hard boiled egg, feta cheese and creamy cucumber dressing

Supper:
BAD!  
3/4 small Arby roast beef sandwich, 1/2 small curly fries
horsy sauce

Yeah, the nice fluffy bun on those roast beef sammies at Arbys are soo soo good but soo soo high in white carbs. I can't think of anything to use instead other than a tortilla but occasionally it's not a bad thing. It's a nice change.

Keep up the good work. See ya.
