Hi Roz.  Ugh - my girlfriend has a lot of junk in the house - like crackers and chps.  If it were sweets I wouldn't be tempted.  I told her as long as the bag isn't open I won't touch it - so she gets out these Tostitos twists and it's open... I've already had a handful, but KNOW that tostitos will make my blood sugar wonky so I will stay away.  I may eat the apple on the counter tho.

Today:  well - we'll see how I do.  I'm planning on doing well.

B - coffee x2

L - leftover piece of steak/cheese quesadilla on wheat tortilla

S - I need to make me a protein drink to battle cravings of the junk

D - probably go out

water:  doing ok.

Munchies get to me too especially if there is dip involved.  I'm much better when there's other people around. Did this friend know you when you were heavier?  I always feel like people watch me.  Not to see if I screw up but out of curiosity.

Hope you stuck to your plan!! 

Went to the gym this morning for body scan.  I was 24%fat which is still below the recommended 25-31% for women.  I am kind of sad to no longer be 19% fat but the therapist assured me that 19% isn't healthy for someone my age and that 24% was much better.  I guess.  I did 10 min on the elliptical and 20 min on the treadmill after.

decaf protein coffee  33g
low carb pita, 1/2 cheese toast, 1/2 cinnamon toast
lemon tea protein  13g
salad w/ turkey
lemon tea protein  13g
almonds
burger patty,1/2 low carb pita, brussel sprouts
protein shake   33g

It probably is healthier to have a little fat.  I wonder what it was before WLS.  I know I fee healthier now than I was at my low of 103.

Sounds Good Price!
