For Wed actuals, you can click on my fitday log at the bottom of my sig. line.
(the reason I'm doing it this way is because I want to be posting it both places, but find that if it takes me more than just a few minutes each day, I won't do it to either place, so I can hit two birds with one stone this way )
Blessings,
Lori

Fer is getting back up on her horse today, or at least trying to.
None of my meals came from my own kitchen yesterday, unless of course you include the diet cherry cokes and Minute Maid lights I grabbed from the fridge. Tsk tsk! bagel, indian wrap, chinese food. A severe lack of vegetation in my diet.
B&L are already set unfortunately - bagel and leftovers from dinner. I am stopping at the farmer's market on the way home. I have an idea of what will be there, so I can plan some meals ahead and make a shopping list.

I felt that way about Panera's veggie sandwich which I always thought was such a great choice until I read the nutritional information on the website. I was shocked to find out how bad it was for you! After that experience, I always go on line whenever possible and check out the nutritional information so I know what the healthiest choices are.

I need to start planning my days food and exercise again. I tried just posting actuals for a while, but I ended up feeling lost and making bad choices.
Plan for Tuesday: Exercise: Lower body giant sets, core work a couple of miles on the bike this morning while waiting for clients and then 200 flights on the stairmaster this afternoon (woke up too late to get in my run this morning) B: ww english muffin w/cream cheese L: ww tortilla with hummus and veggies; 1 oz of tortilla chips, 1/2 a peach S: cereal bar and an apple D: chicken sausage, eggplant and roasted potatoes; 1 glass of wine; skinny cow
It was a good day food wise despite lots of added family stress today.
Wednesday's plan: Exercise: Dh is out of town so I won't be able to go for an outdoor run. I plan on running at the gym and then doing upper body weights (hopefully kettlebell stuff). B: Dd and I have a leisurely morning planned. I may make ww pancakes with 1 T of maple syrup as a treat. L: ww tortilla with hummus, tomatoes, arugula and onion, 1 cup of tomatoes, 1 oz of tortilla chips, a piece of fruit (either an apple or a peach) S: cereal bar and an apple D: broiled lamb chops, ww couscous and zucchini; 1 glass of wine; 1 skinny cowThis message has been edited.

I just returned from another week on the road. All this eating out is just horrible.
Sunday B/L: too much bread, 3 onion rings, steamed broccoli, baked potato w/ a wee bit of sour cream and butter, small salad w/ blue cheese on the side
D: 1 ear of sweet corn, 3 small pieces of bread, 1 cup of zucchini, slice of fresh blueberry pie w/ ff cool whip
Monday B: a few chips w/ homemade black bean salsa and guac L: cup of cauliflower cheese soup, 3 rolls, fresh tomato and strawberries w/ cottage cheese D1 (pre-flight): 2 bean soft tacos from Taco Bell D2 (post-flight): 1 small egg roll, 1 cup white rice, veggie sesame chicken, veggie curry beef
Tuesday B: asiago cheese bagel, 2 T veggie cream cheese L: small egg roll, 1/2 cup rice, leftover sesame chicken and curry beef
Dinner isn't planned yet. There is no food in the house, as is always the case when I return.
I know I'm not doing well. I'm guzzling the diet coke, craving salt and feeling very fatigued.
