Another good day. GREAT

B - Crumpet and jam
L - Sandwich
D - Clay pot chicken and veggies

Snacks - 4 chocolate biscuits

Exercise - Puppy school, 2 hours digging in my garden (tired now!) and 45 minutes dog walk. sounds like another full but fun day

I'm just about to sit down with a well deserved glass of white wine and olives to celebrate a good day and a million calories burned levelling the veggie patch (damm that clay soil).

I AM OFFICIALLY BACK ON TRACK Good for you!!

Breakfast : Rice Krispies and Chocolate soy milk

Lunch: Tuna, corn, mayo, toasted sandwich

Dinner: Sausage & Rice Skillet with my amendments (!) I just LOVED this!!

and that's all so far....

Calories Consumed: 1503

Activities: Painting for 2.5 hours (Looks like we were all at it today Linz!); lots of housework - walking around town for hours,total burned 510 great

So BMR 2308+510 activites- 1503 food =2665 -500 to lose weight= 2165. So I can consume another 662 calories and still be on budget! Good girl!!

I will post later how I broke out ...but there is a crunchie bar upstairs with my name on it (chocolate covered honeycomb 195cals) chocolate covered honeycomb? did you make those?

I had the crunchie and the last three brownie cookies that I broke out on earlier in the week, so that leaves my total at 1983 which is still 182 under budget OK... now STOP and get to bed before chocolate covered honeycombs get ya!!

B: the usual
snacks: 1 banana and 1 1/2 luna bars
lunch: 2 homemade frozen toasted pancakes and lite syrup
early dinner: Noodles and Co. Pad Thai made without oil and 1 bite roll and tea which was so yummy -the orange kind also one potsticker sounds good

Exercise: shopping at an outlet mall with a lot of walking but otherwise off exercise day today.
Funny story about dinner: I was going to make shrimp Pad Thai tonight for dinner but then we were shopping all day and I thought we might as well go out to eat since it didn't matter. I wanted Noodles and Co. After some light arguing we tried this "Potbelly Sandwich Works" menu showed nothing I could eat. DH recanted his calling me selfish when he realized how there was nothing there that was safe. So I still wanted Noodles but he said lets try Panera this time. I couldn't find anything great right away and wanted port and mozz sandwich. DH decided we should go to Noodles as nothing at Panera excited him anyway. So then we walked over there and I ordered shrimp pad thai just like I had at home (mine is never very good). He was pretty satisfied with his meal but I was completely satisfied with mine. I remarked how I really didn't need to go anywhere else. I think he was sweet and empathetic in the long run about my whole eating situation. I think he concedes I am not selfish but just can't eat ANYTHING at certain restaurants. that was nice of him to go there for you. Shane had to learn that the hard way in the begining....if he insisted on eating at a place where there was nothing safe for me....I better not hear him complain later that night when he wanted some and I was too sick to give it up!! LOL

9am:
Banana Oatmeal

12noon:
Tomato Soup, with FF Turkey Hotdog and Veggie Parm yum

3pm:
4 FF Saltines, 2 each with hummus and guacamole

6pm:
Baked Chicken, Sweet Potato, another trial spoonful of veggies

9pm:
Fresh Sourdough with melted soy margarine and veggie parm
Lil Dreamers Soy Ice Cream Bar (back to vanilla)

I can't really tell how I'm doing with the veggies. It's that glorious time of the month, sorry...just finished mine... with the obligatory severe cramps and D that come with it. Tried a bit of ginger tea, but was quite repulsed. I just put a bit of honey in it. I'll try that with the lemon someone suggested tomorrow, but this just may not be my "cup of tea"...hehe.

Signed up for fitday, and I was suprisingly impressed. They did the counting! cool

Total for today : 929 calories

Also counted fat which I had been neglecting to count. Right at 21% of calories from fat today. A little high, especially since I'm not exactly stable. I was shocked to see that 74% of my fat intake for the day was in those two bites of guacamole. Yikes! yes, that can do it But I enjoyed it so much! Well, maybe it ought to be 1 cracker guac, 3 crackers hummus the next time, hehe.
