Pre-breakfast: 2 tea biscuits (32)
Breakfast: oatmeal w/ banana (244)

AM Snack: canned peaches & 2 tea biscuits (84)

Lunch: tuna-veggie pasta salad (364), 3 cinnamon altoids to lose the tuna breath! (10) lol

PM Snacks: luna bar (180), 2 tea biscuits (32)

Dinner: turkey ham, herbed baked potatoes (291) yum

Dessert/Late Snacks: Norwegian Apple Pan Pie w/o the nuts (125) gotta try this one too! , UFO (170), ff saltines (120)

Drinks: 3 cups teeccino w/ stevia & nondairy creamer (30), 3 glasses water = 60oz

Food & drinks total: 1682

Activity:
45 min hatha yoga -110 GREAT

It's funny, I find myself eating less on days that I get exercise... presumably because I'm keeping myself busy and therefore not snacking out of boredom. More incentive to keep at it! YES

I'm having to cut down my Teeccino intake, not because it's causing me problems, but because it's so darn expensive and I can't afford to keep drinking a pot a day like I have been. So now an additional thing for me to work on is getting enough to drink, because water is still difficult for me - I like drinks that taste like something.

Wow I ate alot today! I think excersize makes me hungrier. I ran for 45 minutes doing intervals of 4 1200's and a lap of jogging in between + stretching. I don't count calories so I don't know how many I ate today...probably more then I should have...hehehe. depends on the portions you ate.... you might have done just fine...

Ugg, moderate day. Didn't get out of bed until noon, still feeling the effects of yesterday's disaster.

12noon:
Banana Oatmeal (120 calories)

3pm:
Grilled Tortilla (with the non stick spray) (120 calories)
¼ cup Pizza Sauce (35 calories)
2 Tbsp Veggie Parmesan (15 calories) great

6pm:
Flour Tortilla (120 calories)
Half a can of tuna (30 calories)
1 Tbsp of Hellman's Lowfat Mayo (25 calories)
1 Egg Beater (30 calories)

9pm:
Banana Mocha Mousse (FF SF Jello Instant Banana Pudding, SF Decaf Mocha mix, Soy Milk and Cool Whip Free) (100 calories)
Lil' Dreamers Soy Ice Cream Bars (100 calories)

Total Calories--695

Btw--I'm still trying to get stable, and I'm really trying to eat safely (sans yesterday's "adventure") so if anything I'm eating from this point forward is a red flag trigger food, or even a "might want to be careful about that" food, please let me know. I'm not too sure about the "Banana Mocha Mousse (FF SF Jello Instant Banana Pudding, SF Decaf Mocha mix, Soy Milk and Cool Whip Free) " you should really check the ingrediants...but also, if it does not bother you... then don't worry about it...

Thanks so much!

Not too bad on the food front, although chocolate biscuits may have been involved. LOL Did two 45 mins fast walks with the dog and 1 hour 30 mins of Yoga class. great

Tomorrow I'm digging my huge veggie patch, so that should burn a few hundred calories! fun....

Well, after such good news yesterday, I did not do so hot today. And it looks like this could be a tough weekend ahead . . . I am moving back home on Saturday - high stress levels plus my mom keeps foods in the house that I don't allow myself to buy b/c if they're there I will eat them. Good luck sweetie....keep us posted Plus Easter (Casey, I hear ya about those evil jelly beans - BE STRONG!!) always lots of food and candy. Thank goodness I have encouragement from y'all!

breakfast - 2/3 serving cream of wheat made w/soy milk, OJ w/fiber, mint tea (252)
snack - baby carrots (46), UFO beverage (155)
lunch - sliced apple and PB wrapped in a flour tortilla (2 for a total of 427)
snack - pita chips and hummus (417)
dinner - Soy milk, few bites of leftover chicken, homemade sweet potato fries (roasted w/Pam and spices) baked chips&salsa (should not have had that last part) (420)
dessert - UFO naughty Easter treat (215) hehehe

Excercise - 20 min pilates tape - maybe burned 100 cal IF I'm lucky. better then nothing...

So my total food calories were WAY high today - 1833!!! I ate that extra snack since we are all talking about eating MORE to weigh LESS, and how many small meals help. I don't think that was the problem; it was the chips&salsa that made me feel too full, then I managed to still eat dessert! I find I have dessert more often when I am MORE full after dinner - WEIRD. I understand that too...strange how that happens Oh, well. Today is a new day and so far so good.
