Tues

Wheaties and banana (6)
Soup (1), turkey (1) and salami (1)

Back on Track... again?

Didn't journal over the weekend. Got no enthusiasm.

Today already wheaties (5), half a banana (1), and salami (1)... and it's not even eight in the morning.

Just kind of depressed. Yesterday was mom's birthday. The doc thinks I have sleep apnea. And quite frankly I'm having troubles giving have a rip about anything (including the house reconstruction). All I want to do is lie down and eat (not at the same time, but you get the picture).

popcorn snack (mmmm cheddar... bad Bill, bad Bill)... (3)
Lunch: veg soup (1), salami (1), turkey (2)... so far 14 for the day...

Wendy's: southwest taco salad (no dressing): 9... plus the jr. bacon cheeseburger... bad (8) (and some candy for dessert... 2)

Daily total: 33... very bad. but at least I'm journaling again.

And Peyton's pulling for me. So I've got that goin' for me... which is nice.

Surprise!

Okay, I'm checking in too. I'm still working at it too. I've recognized that I really don't like the lettuce in salad, so I've pretty much cut it out and am making salads with cucumber as the base for lunch at school. Sometimes I add spinach, but almost always include radish, red pepper, and small (cherry, strawberry, or grape) tomatoes. I like it best if I can add half an avocado. I like that it fills me, and most times I don't ned anything else for lunch. Unfortunately, I still want something to eat afterschool, whether or not I'm hungry.

The good news is I have lost since the beginning and am maintaining about 144. Still not what I want, but better. I will be happier when my pants aren't so tight--espcially my jeans.

Today we are going out to breakfast at IHOP before Kyle's game--his request last night. I will have dinner with my out-of-town famiy at City Buffet (could be dangerous, or unappealing...). I will try to have a light snack for lunch. Our "cupboard" (refrigerator) is bare, so we will stock it up once again with good goodies.

Joni and Bill, I respect how well you can journal regularly.

Mary, how are you?

I'm still here...

It has been a while and I have had my ups and downs, but I will not give up. Over the last couple os weeks I have consistenetly stayed about 3 pounds lower than when we started and for me that is a victory since every semester since I started at CSUCI I have gained, some more than others. Now that my classes are coming to an end I will try to write more consistently again too, it really does help.
So far today...
applesauce~1
sandwich~3
veg & dip~1
Granola bar~2
Tonight...BJ's...At least the day was not bad.

Back... again

OK, so it's two weeks since I journaled... and two and a half since I weighed myself. Both bad: 223 again. Feel like I've just blown the better part of two months: I'm only 3 pounds less than when we started this on August 20.

Oh, well.

Let us begin again (could this help the sleep apnea the doc thinks I have???):
Wheaties (5)
Salami snack (1)
Salami (1), turkey (2), cheese (1), and popcorn (0)
