Keeping it honest - Day 2

it is the chicken in garlic sauce with creamed spinach. Turns out to be only 17 grams of carbs (I will throw some fruit in this afternoon) and try this posting tomorrow...even if I am not a grad

Lord woman you've been posting on OH long enough to be an honorary grad (though some may disagree ). That sounds REALLY good!

I am beginning to enjoy being accountable to myself and you. I think it helps. If I think about eating anything I think woops I can't do that, I will have to tell Tooter. 1- 2 eggs 1 slice cheese 2- 3 oz. shrimp 1/2 c green beans 3- 1/2 rock n roll bar. I had just got them and had not tried one so I did. I did not realize they had sooooooo many cals. and carbs. 4- 3 oz. ground sirloin 1/2 c broc/caul mix will have later- 5- 1/2 c cottage cheese 6- 2 string cheese ( maybe) 1004 cal 31 carbs 99 protein It looks like I am eating way too much.

Good day! Even with that R&R bar lol. Ya know, the calories aren't really all that bad - as an occasional treat - I avoid them because they are loaded with fractionated palm oil. Nasty stuff! Reading this reminds me I NEED to go to the store and get some Cottage cheese! (((HUGS))) I think it helps to post it too. I'm glad you find it to be true also!

Okey Dokey... I'm doing good this week (of course don;t ask me about the holidays!!) B: 2 eggs, skinny piece of ham, half banana L: apple with peanut butter and cheese stick and rest of that banana S: bowl of cherries (fresh from Chile via Safeway on sale for 2.00 a pound!!! I love cherries can ya tell...) and a small bagel D: boneless/skinless chicken breast with mushrooms sipping a cup of fragrant Jasmine tea.....now I've had all my water (80 oz) but will drink some more after dinner Bedtime: vitamins with Carb Countdown I dont know how many calories or anything else today.... trying to relax but keep it under control..... preparing for a treadmill test tomorrow morning for my pre op TT surgery.... hope I pass this time....) Laurie - minus 174 lbs!!

I read your post on the main board. I hope your test comes out CLEAN and healthy!!! Let us know!

1. low sugar quaker apples & cinnamon oatmeal with splenda, milk and raisins 2. cheez-its 3. turkey burger patty - no bun 4. a small piece of meat loaf - that frankly isn't sitting right - BLEH The cheezits were VERY nawty! -me

Cheezits make me DUMP...thank goodness lol. Hope your meatloaf behaves!

Cheezits are ok for me in small doses. The queasy feeling is passing from the meatloaf, I think it was probably borderline too high in fat. Michele

I cook mine on a rack (broiler pan) so most of the fat drips away. I cover it with foil for the first 3/4 time of cooking though so it doesn't dry out and put about a 1/2 inch of water with garlic in the bottom of the drip pan - kind of steams it. Very good!
