Pre-breakfast: 2 slices toast w/ honey Breakfast: oatmeal w/ brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, & canned peaches, and a banana Lunch: luna bar & another banana Snacks: a few gumdrops, a piece of cake, a slice of applesauce bread, junior mints Dinner: vietnamese grilled honey chicken, jasmine rice Drinks: 4 mugs teeccino w/ stevia & nondairy creamer, 1 glass water = 70oz so far
Food & drinks total: 1762 Fruits & veggies: peaches, 2 bananas = 3
Activity: No real exercise, but we did some grocery shopping & general errand-running... I'm too lazy to count the calories burned, but it wasn't very many anyway. 
Goal for tomorrow: less junk food! This should be pretty easy... I tend to eat more trash when we're out and about, and I have no plans to leave the house.

Ok - I finished the leftovers yesterday so I can be "good" the rest of the week!
B - UFO food item UFO beveredge item Soluble fiber serving (along with all of my meds and vitamins) - It takes two glasses of water to get it all down total = 246 cal
S - Vanilla Nut Goodee (Another ebay acquisition - my local grocery store does not have Luna bars. I will have to go out and "hunt" for some). Total = 150 Calories
L - Chicken sandwhich made with three slices of thin sliced chicken breast (Wal Mart Deli oven roasted), two slices of Wal Mart "Toasting Bread" and a slice of swiss ***** (ufo dairy item) one cup of tortilla chips Soluble fiber supplement (with my meds again) - I rattle when I walk! Total = 495 calories
D - Greek UFO (vegetable dish) Lean Cuisine "Pork with Cherry Sauce" UFO beverege Total = 531 Calories
Total food eaten 1422 Calories Activity = walk 3 miles on treadmill = 131 BMR = 2037
I keep forgeting about adding my water. I drink water all day. Some of my medications make my mouth dry.
Tomorrow I will need to skip my walking. I will make it up on Saturday. I have a job interview (as does my husband except he is in another state for his).
I have not shared with this board about my job/financial woes. I have not been able to find a job since we moved here. My husband got laid off on February 11. He does not qualify for unemployment until his severence runs out. Our insurance (Cobra) is 860.00. My rabbit needs surgery...and I need to decide whether to put him to sleep because the surgery will cost more than a months worth of grocerys (the last time he needed surgery it was 600.00 - this is something he will need about every six months for the rest of his life - he is almost four years old). We both need jobs and prayers.
It is wonder that I do not eat myself back up to where I was before I started on the "eating healthy" lifestyle.
Take care,
Karen

You eat the same thing everyday. (and you like candy too)
-------------------- IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!

Yah, pretty much... I eat different dinners, but I tend to eat the same breakfast and snacks every day. I suppose it makes for a boring reporting-in, haha.
And candy... don't even get me started... I can't wait till easter is over (the last of the "candy holidays" until Halloween!).

Well, I broke down already and it is not even 10AM. I was feeling the effects of going cold turkey so I got myself a (smaller) cup. Maybe I will do this gradually . . .
So now my coffee plan is to just have smaller cups in the morning, none in the evening and maybe by next week I can go every other day!
Karen - sorry to hear about your job difficulties - good luck on the interview.
Casey - welcome back and thanks again for the tip about eating 1/2 serving of oatmeal - I feel sooo much better than when I was eating the whole serving!! 
Tuesday:
Breakfast - Vanilla soy milk w/fiber powder, 1/2 red grapefruit snack - coffee w/the works (only ~10 oz today), apple Lunch - hummus wrap w/red pepper, avacado, mushrooms, sprouts, spinach, and a little soy cheddar. YUM but I made it too big. Snack - handful dried cherries Dinner - 1 c. soy milk, Chicken fajita w/condiments - I really tried to look at the serving size and only have one serving. But who only eats 2T of salsa at once??? Me I guess  Dessert - none! YAY me!!!
Excercise - 1 hr pilates class. Didn't feel like I got as much out of it as usual.
Water - about 70 oz.

Snack- leftover oatmeal from this morning with some chocolate sauce DH and I were laughing about your snack. Sorry.
Don't be sorry, I wanted something creamy and chocolatey and it worked! A soon as I let myself back into the biscuit tin I am doomed, In retrospect I still have loadsa luna bars though...

OK... here is my reporting in...... My BMR = 2385 + I burned 691 calories 60 minutes Power Sculpt Class) (No cardio because the whole class waited after class to have body fat % checked) - 1246 less calories to get to my goal = 1830 calorie food budget.
POWER SCULPT Class designed to utilize Group X equipment for resistance training. Band, weights and tubing will be used to sculpt and define.
*Trainer (Heather) checked my bodyfat percentage... since May 28, 2004 I have gone down 7.4% .... I'm still considered "unhealthy" but not for long baby...not for long!! I'm also going to be talking with her about doing so HARD CORE one on one kicking my @$$ sessions with her....she is NOT cheap...she gets paid LOTS more then the other trainers there. For example.... with any other trainer there at the gym I could today walk in and get 5 sessions for $75....but with Heather... 10 sessions is gonna cost me $500-600 ($50-60 PER session)....But I think it will really be worth it. I will let ya all know what happens with that
Breakfast: 225 calories Chocolate Peppermint Stick Luna Bar, 12oz Peppermint Tea w/3 Teaspoons Sugar (the sugar is what kills me there) & Water
Lunch : 352 calories brought my own sandwich (Tuna w/RF Mayo and Pickles), 1 Mini AD Brownie, & Water
Snacks during the day not in any order: 384 calories 10 Rice Sembei Snacks - Tamari (soy sauce), 6 JellyBelly's, 2 UFO's, Toasted Nutz N Cranberry Luna Bar & Water
Before Working Out: 196 calories Spiru-Tein Energy Drink (Chocolate w/Vanilla Silk Soy Milk) I think this is REALLY helping me to have this before working out!! & Water
While Working Out: 11 calories 3 Altoids & Water
Dinner: 426 calories Asian Baked Chicken (Turkey Breast Tenderloin) in Vinegar Sauce & Water
Fiber Pills: 2.25 calories total
Without any more snacks at all....(subject to change) = 1596.25 calories
Total Water intake = 88 oz
I DID have UFO w/water. That DID added 250 calories for a total of 1846.25 . Oh, I went over my food budget by 16.25 I guess that is what I get for skipping cardio today!!
