Yesterday I did not do too well. B and L were good. I had good exercise, but grabbed a handful of goldfish crackers with freinds. (It happened so suddenly- I left my mind and body for the split second it took to down them.) the handful left me struggling, wanting more. I resisited, but was stressed. At dinner I ate my pizza and was still hungry. I took 3 bites of dd's ravioli and 3 bites of dh's sandwich. Could have been worse. I see more and more how crackers of any kind (especially goldfish or cheddar bunnies) set me off. Today's plan: Exercise: step/strenght class (taking dd- she reads) B: done- oatmeal mix L: leftover orzo pasta- preportioned S: milk tea D: veggie sandwiches with 2 oz lf cheese at pool.
Annended to add 1 large carrott with ff dip and 1 T pb as I was VERY hungry after exercise and did not want to blow it on Cheddar bunnies or whatever seemed "stuffable" at the moment.

The rest of Sunday: d-leftover vegie pad thai, plum s-dh made rootbeer floats, I was going to skip it but he made me one. It was good, but I would have saved the calories for something else.
90 day goal: 4 days of cardio, 3 days of strength training each week.
I've eaten out every meal today wasn't home at all!! Go figure, but I kept it ok
B = WW bread, turkey blt at Mcds..with side salad and thai dressing with diet coke (I know..bad but was good) L2- veggie burrito (no sour cream or cheese)..rice, beans, tomato, lettuce..but I added chicken to it...all in a whole wheat wrap. Then a nsa/ff fudgsicle S- small strawberry sundae D- Mcds...2 chicken fajitas with hot sauce, yogurt parfait and water.
I'm gonna try posting in the evening a report of what I've eaten that day instead of pre-planning the day like I've done in the past. I think it will free me up to be more flexible to eat what I really want and need at that time. I think being accountable to you all at the end of the day will help keep me in line.
Here's how my Sunday went:
Breakfast- Egg and fat-free cheese slice on whole wheat toast, veggie sausage patty, 1/2 cup cranberry juice, coffee w/Splenda & skim milk.
Lunch- Turkey & reduced fat cheddar cheese wrap in whole wheat tortilla w/tomato & dijon mustard, 1 cup split pea soup.
Dinner- Hot dog w/homemade chili on bun, small salad w/ff Italian dressing, light icecream sandwich.
Snacks-snack size bag of popcorn, 1/2 cup cranberry juice.
Sunday so far: b-oatmeal s-cherries l-1/2 grilled bbq chicken breast, salad, green pepper Exercise: swam quite a few laps Well, I missed my afternoon snack but it's almost dinner time. Will probably have leftover vegie pad thai and some fruit.
90 day goal: 4 days of cardio, 3 days of strength training each week.
Sunday: Breakfast: fresh fruit Exercise: 60 min. on treadmill Lunch: sole, brown rice, spinach, cabbage slaw Snack if necessary: fresh fruit Dinner: depends on what I pick up at the grocery store
the rest of Saturday: s-yogurt w/raspberries and ff blueberry muesli d-out. 1 soft shell chicken taco (I took the other one home even though I wanted to eat it. I realized that I wasn't really hungry, I just liked the taste.) blue tortilla chips, 6 of my sons french fries.
Oh yes, a nectarine after lunch and some cherries.

90 day goal: 4 days of cardio, 3 days of strength training each week.
We are going out tomorrow - a caual Italian place where I usually have a small (6 inch individual veggie pizza) This is a small meal in terms of volumes, but I am usre packed with calories. My plan is to have a lean day up unitl then and to eat VERY SLOWLY so that the pizza lasts. Exercise: 45 minute walk B: Oatmeal and milk with pb L: lightened up version of Tyler Florence's shrimp, feta and orzo salad- actually I am morphing it quite a bit. This will include 3/4 c white orzo. A side of broc. D: pizza
