Exercise was a 10min walk with the dog.   Not good enough.   I'm going to get onto a better schedule.  I'm struggling to make my body move, and the less I move, the more it hurts.   Its a vicious negative cycle that I've created the last 6 months.  Must make a change.

Wednesday Food - Catching up

OMG... catching up and starting to blog again is hard.  But, as the next three posts of food happenings have shown...not tracking is a big issue for me.  I'm a consumption specialist.   As soon as its over the lips, I've already forgotten that it went down.

did anyone get the number....

of the wagon that ran me over?!


OMG, what a nightmare 2 weeks.  I was away and managed to get strep throat again... and was laid out at home on meds, sweating, groaning and feeling very sorry for myself.

Then back to work, where I was swamped... but enough about all the excuses.

I fell off the tracking and managing wagon... and have spent the last 4 days avoiding blogging and weighing in because I'm so scared of what those 2 weeks of lounging around has done.  Especially since I was eating badly, not drinking much water, and generally lazy.

*sigh*   back on the wagon tomorrow.  Starting with a weigh in.   Ug.   Habits... you are so hard to keep the good ones???  WHY!!! 

:)

AFK!

I have my food tracked from  yesterday, but I'm headed out of town this morning and I just haven't found time to put it all down here.

I'm going to be logging my calories this weekend.   Being out of town isn't an excuse for me anymore!

TTFN!

Its almost 10, I feel full and satisfied.  What a change from yesterday.  Eating more in the daytime is defiantly where its at for me.  More breakfast and lunch!!   I actually had to force myself to get my yogurt snack this afternoon. 

okay.  bed time!   Resting up for a big weekend!!

Better!

Wow, do I feel better today with my eating.  Yesterday at this time I was panicked and freaking.  Today, I've had two 600 calorie meals and feel so much better.

Well - breakfast was spread out.   Banana at home.  Egg biscuit at the office at 8.30.  Coffee at 9.  Yogurt at 10.30.   So I guess its grazing.  (610 calories)

Just finished my lunch about 20 minutes ago.   4 deviled egg halves, 2c coleslaw, 1 bag of pop chips, 1 diet dr. pepper, I piece of baklava.  (643 calories)

I have my oatmeal and another yogurt for a snack this afternoon - but I'm not likely going to need both, but if I did it would be (310 calories).

Tonight's dinner is the super yummy, super low calorie meal of spaghetti squash, with ground turkey, onion & pasta sauce, with spinach side. (375 calories)

So Today is looking like an awesome 1,938 calorie day!  Super pumped!

Balancing my Daily Calories

Man, I was DRAGGING today.   I just could not get enough sleep last night.   I can't wait to hit the hay tonight.  But first... blogging my food.

I didn't get any real exercise today, I was beat from all the walking yesterday.  So I'm hoping to get a good nights rest and be chipper tomorrow.

Funny.  I'm REALLY glad that I did this today.  This is one of the better calories days I've had.  But this afternoon I was totally ravenous. I just couldn't figure it out. I felt almost out of control hungry. I had my "poor mans mocha latte", then I had some gummie candy, I really felt like I was on the verge of freaking out. 

But looking at this I realize that my problem is that I had TOO LITTLE food in the morning.   My lunch was too small.   I need to make sure that I get in a big breakfast and getting into the 600's for those meals so that I don't have horrible afternoons of snack attacks. 

At dinner tonight I was only going to have 2 sausages, but then there was just one left and we were hungry so we split it.   However, if I had made better lunch and breakfast choices, I wouldn't have had to eat so much in the evening.

So... note to self.   BETTER BREAKFAST.

Its the old adage..... eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a lord, and dinner like a pauper.


15 weeks until my Iceland trip.  The rest of this week is for the Ponies!!!
