Urgh. Not great today. I'm going to post my foods on Fitday anyway (will update later) but I think it's going to be BAD. You will get it all sorted out... no worries!

Anyway, my protein consumption and water intake are good today and I'm not feeling quite so dehydrated as yesterday either. great!!

Hi ya'll,

Well, it is only 11 Am here so I have not had much but have a plan so here it is.. A "PLAN" is a good thing!!!!

Breakfast: (Had already) Nutz over Chocolate Luna Bar be sure to check out this post about NEW flavors!!

Snack: (Had already)About 6 arrowroot cookies, I was feeling really nauseous and acidy and it usually helps but not much luck today, icky! bummer...

Snack: (About to have) 3/4 cup mango/peach applesauce

Lunch: (Not yet!) Lean Cuisine "Glazed Chicken" with rice and green beans. this has always been my fav....ever since LC came out on the market... Small cup of peaches, juices drained.

Snack: (Not yet!)Pretzels (I have some with me, I figure I'll probably snack on them on the way home as it takes forever to get home and I get pretty grumpy by then if I get hungry, hee hee) good plan

Dinner: Well, the plan is to make egg-white omletes. I have NEVER liked eggs and have never had an omlette but I said I would give it a try. I am going to put mushrooms and salsa in mine. We will have some boiled potatoes, but I will only have a very small portion as I am trying to cut down on carbs, but we don't want to waste groceries we already have. Sounds PERFECT!!

After dinner: I am going to baby-sit at my sisters and she said she left twizzlers for me, so I will probably have a few of those, maybe some more pretzels depending on how the omlette goes over, hee hee. go easy on the twizzlers.... lots of empty calories

Drinks: So far have had 2 cups of water and one cup decaf green tea. Will probably have two more cups of tea, and as much water as I can drink. good!

Will update later! OK, let us know how it goes!!
Cheers!

She has already lost 10 lbs and is doing WW but we are both going to help motivate each other too and I am so competitive that I won't give up as I will want to lose as much as she does! Oh, good.. it is cool to have a partner in crime!!

Well...traveling was so-so. I made the best choices I could though, and refrained from any of those "oh-I-can-eat-this-cheese-dip-and-then-what-the-heck-I-may-as-well-have-a-gooey-chocolate-doughnut" type decisions, so I'm proud of that. I took my own food for allot of it... that is great... I'm proud of you for being so strong

Friday
Breakfast--Honeycomb cereal
Lunch--Potato with Salt and Pepper (at Wendy's), split a Luna Bar for dessert
Snack--(when we stopped at Dairy Queen ) Twizzlers
Dinner--Chicken Teriyaki with Rice
Snack-- Nilla Wafers (did just read that there are whey and eggs in these. Grrr....I thought they were safe? Does anyone know is there is a safer generic version?) I'm not sure, the reduced fat have whey but no eggs....

Saturday
Breakfast--Instant Oatmeal that I brought
Lunch--"Kaiser Roll with BBQ Chicken, Lettuce Tomato, and Avacado" I took off the veggies and just had the chicken (a very dry breast, and I sure didn't taste any BBQ ) and the bread. I didn't feel so well, so I'm guessing the bread had dairy or somthing. It was a "boxed lunch" and I was separated from my food bag. Oh, that is too bad...it is hard when you can see the ingrediants...
Dinner--Dry Corn Pops, Sourdough Bread, and FF Saltines (at a college caf)

Sunday
Breakfast--It was an eggs-and-bacon type buffet, I ate a Luna Bar instead good girl!
Lunch--French Bread with Turkey and Mustard; a few Honey Mustard Kettle Potato Chips
Snack (just after Lunch)--Extra extra dark chocolate (A great find!!! It is 75% cocoa powder, then sugar, then lethicin to hold it together. Yay for safe chocolate!) sounds good!

About an hour later, I had a terrible allergic reaction to something. Food? Something? I have no idea... oh no!

My mouth was burning so I ate a few tangerine Altoids.

Dinner--My whole body felt on fire, my mouth and throat burned and itched, the skin by my mouth and eyes was on fire, even my knees itched. I was sneezing and coughing and my throat was swelling. I ate in desperation to calm the feeling in my mouth.
Mexican restruant--7 flour torillas, with guacamole and chicken (from chicken fajitas--someone else ate the veggies). (And yes...I was so sick after.)
Finally got some Benadryl, took a shower, and rubbed cortisone and ice over my body.
Ate some Fennel crackers and ginger chews to help the bloat. you poor thing.....

Monday
Breakfast--Dry Rice Krispies (grim...they are kind of dehydrating feeling dry...)
Lunch--BBQ Chicken Pizza (without the cheese--Confused the heck out of the cook, he come out to see if it was true! ...This was all confused by my dad, who asked for the cheese in a bowl on the side...lol!) lol
Dinner--Subway Chicken Teriyaki on White (with just the FF Sweet Onion sauce)
Snacks--crazy amount of Jelly Beans, each time the Benadryl wore off.

Sorry so long...am hoping someone has an idea about the allergic reaction???

Will report on today later this evening...

Hi ya'll,

Snack: (Had already)About 6 arrowroot cookies, I was feeling really nauseous and acidy and it usually helps but not much luck today, icky!

Snack: (About to have) 3/4 cup mango/peach applesauce

Snack: (Not yet!)Pretzels (I have some with me, I figure I'll probably snack on them on the way home as it takes forever to get home and I get pretty grumpy by then if I get hungry, hee hee)
I did not get hungry on the way home, so I did not eat any pretzels. I left as quick as I could so I got home a bit faster. When I got home, though, I ate some baked tortilla chips.

Dinner: Well, the plan is to make egg-white omletes. I have NEVER liked eggs and have never had an omlette but I said I would give it a try. I am going to put mushrooms and salsa in mine. We will have some boiled potatoes, but I will only have a very small portion as I am trying to cut down on carbs, but we don't want to waste groceries we already have.
Okay, so Adrian made us omlettes for dinner. I had about 4 pieces of potato, so probably one and a half of those small potatoes - boiled.
Bad news is: I still don't like eggs!! I tried to eat them, but I just still can't stand them. I think it is the consistency. Anyway, so I ate a little bit.. and I picked out the mushrooms and ate them, hee hee.
After dinner: I am going to baby-sit at my sisters and she said she left twizzlers for me, so I will probably have a few of those, maybe some more pretzels depending on how the omlette goes over, hee hee.
Did not have any pretzels at my sister's either, but did have 3 twizzlers.
Drinks: So far have had 2 cups of water and one cup decaf green tea. Will probably have two more cups of tea, and as much water as I can drink.

Only had one more cup of tea, but lots of water.

My mom looked at me this morning and said, "You've lost weight!" Now, according to the scale I have actually not lost weight but if it looks like I have, all the better, hee hee.
Was going to go to the gym tonight, but am tutoring so will have to go tomorrow after work - there is one 5 minutes away from my office.

So there's the update! Will report in for today (Wednesday) later on!

So far? Hmmmm....it's been a hot day.

Re: Activity: walk in the woods behind my house (34 minutes), about 20 min. yoga.

Food:

smoothie (papaya/strawberry/soy protein)

homeade miso soup (with fresh watercress, about 1/4 c silken fat-fre tofu, kombu, sprouts, baby spinach)
rice crackers sounds interesting, I still have not tried miso...bought it two times and never use it...I'm chicken I guess...lol

baby banana

a few new potatoes with fresh dill and lemon
steamed asparagus, dulse
cremini mushrooms (lots!!!!)
some spring mix and sprouts (alfalfa, clover, pea), english cucumber
balamic vinegar/dijon/lemon

Lots of Rooibos with fresh lemons, bottled water. I'll probably eat some more food later. I'm a grazer. Hmmm...maybe I'll whip up some mango sorbet. It's as easy as sticking a mango in the food processor and sticking it in the freezer. YUM. well, that is easy!!
