Let's see...the rest of today.

I had a chicken wrap instead of turkey and skipped the afternoon snack since dh wanted to go out to eat. I had more appetizers than I planned on, but had a healthy meal. I only ate 1/2 of my grilled chicken breast, most of my broccoli and some of the rice. Not bad.

I didn't eat any of the cookies I was decorating but I did have a few small tastes of the icing!

Today was a good day for me. I stayed on plan with my eating and did 15 minutes of step aerobics instead of 30 in case I am coming down with something. I do feel a little better today though! My lunch was at a cafe w/my boyfriend. I had a very yummy small bowl of turkey rice soup and small serving of pasta salad w/green pepper and tomatoes. Instead of Vegetable Lasagna for dinner,I had grilled chicken,rice and green beans. I will still call this on plan eating because what I had fits the healthy way I want to eat the majority of the time. Now here's my plan for Tuesday: Breakfast- Maple and brown sugar frosted mini wheats w/soymilk,orange juice and coffee w/Splenda. Lunch- Italian Vegetable soup,1/2 a ham & swiss sandwich on whole wheat. Dinner- Going to my mom's-so whatever she is having. Snacks- a banana muffin and 1/2 cup cranberry juice. Exercise- 20 min. step aerobics.

So far, so good. I've managed to stay pretty much on plan today. I didn't have my morning snack because I was out running around, but I did have an early afternoon snack already of a bowl of soup. I may need to have another snack before dinner because I'm feeling hungry.

I did walk this morning. The temperature was somewhere in the 2o's and the wind surely brought it down below that, but I bundled up and did 3 laps around the park. (almost 3 miles) Yeah for me! I still had time after that to get home and change and be in my sons classroom at 10:00 to read.

I will post the rest of my day later.

Thanks for encouragement, Sandy and Peg. I will try to stay accountable here even when I completely blow it.

Yesterday:
b-soy oatmeal w/1/2 banana, raspberries, milk and small o.j.
s-none, no time
l-roasted corn tortilla soup, chili wrap w/chicken strips, romaine lettuce and carrots
s-here is where I blew it. It was almost dinner time and I decided I should have a snack to tide me over. A measured amount of crackers and some horshradish cheese spread from Trader Joes. Only I didn't measure it out and I finished off the crackers and spread and paid for it with a stomach ache later on. So I wasn't hungry for any dinner!

I did have 2 small glasses of water and probably only 1 1/2 cups of coffee.

No exercise.

Today:
b-soy oatmeal w/banana, raspberries, milk and a small o.j.
s-will be at church. May allow myself a small piece of coffee cake
l-probably out
s-?
d-something light (soup maybe) before my choir concert. I need to be there at 5:00.
s-Now that I think about it I had better skip my morning coffee cake and I won't have an afternoon snack. There will be a reception for the choir after the concert with cookies and such. I will try not to go overboard. I will drink at least 3 small glasses of water today.

Exercise: probably none.
