Accountability - Thursday
Getting back into the swing of things today..doing alot, keeping busy but still making it look WAY easier than it is.
5:30 am 12 oz coffee w/NSA Swiss Miss
6:15 am 1/4 waffle, 1/2 small apple, 1/2 sf pancake syrup and butter buds
6:45 am double espresso latte
7:00 am 24 oz herb tea..Celestial Seasons, Sugar Cookie Sleigh Ride (I bought several boxes of this last Christmas! It's NUMMY)
8:30 am 1 oz jack cheese wrapped with 1 service smoked turkey deli meat
10:00 am 24 oz drink mix with ice, non-caffeinated
11:15 am 5 oz pork chop, 4 broccoli floweretts (at least a start on it)
12:40 pm the rest of the pork and a slice of banana bread
1:15 pm 24 oz drink mix with ice, non-caffeinated
3:15 pm 24 oz drink mix with ice, non-caffeinated
4:00 pm 1 hard boiled egg
4:30 pm The rest of the 24 oz caffeinated drink..I will need more water!
5:30 pm 2 sugar free cookies..yeah, I made 'em and they're okay but they have carbs..and not the great ones even though I subbed oat flour (made myself) for half the flour
6:00 pm 4 oz chicken breast cooked, 2/3 cup canned green beans, 1/2 mashed potatoes, margarine
Totals for the day:
Calories: 1370
Fat: 64.4
Carbs: 98.5
Protein: 106.9
Actually not bad. I'm good with those numbers. I think maybe a nice warm cup of tea and some tylenol PM and Valerian Root..It's the best to get a good night sleep. Maybe just the Valerian root..
How did you do today?

LOL..I had some oatmeal left from when I was eating oatmeal each morning..not so much anymore cuz I can't take the high carb thing anymore..so I took the uncooked oats and put them in my spice grinder (repurposed coffee grinder)..a 1/2 cup at a time..I was bored on vacation and wanted to bake something and opened that canister by accident...hmmm. I figured oatmeal raisin cookies, maybe oatmeal peanut butter cookies, oatmeal banana peanut butter cookies (you know, using up the stuff I have a ton of just hanging around..)
Your numbers are pretty darn spiffy too,there..NICE WORK..See ya Friday.

Welcome Sis'ta! It is really helpful for me to come here and account for my food. I also track it in writing. I like to plan my meals in advance and try to stay within 1600-1800 calories. Sometimes I fail but coming here and accounting for what I did helps me get back on track. Glad you decided to join us!
