    Good morning! Well....last night I had a BLAST, drank a TON, and danced my butt off!!! Today I'm going to try and eat light and I just got home from a hour of running at the gym. SO...feeling pretty good right now. Here's what I ate so far:

    Breakfast:
    1 c. Multigrain Cheerios, 1/2 c. Skim milk, 1 med. banana, 10 red raspberries, 1 multivitamin, 2 c. coffee with 2 tbsp. creamer.

    AM Snack:
    Soft baked Kashi TLC Blackberry Graham bar

    And now it's 2:30, I'm gonna shower and then probably make myself a BIG salad as a lunch/dinner. We are going to watch some stock-car races tonight so I doubt I'll have any thing else for dinner. Just gonna take some healthy snacks with me and drink LOTS of water. Tomorrow I should be back to a normal day and eat ALL my calories for the day!

    Hope everyone else is having a good weekend so far!!!:flowerforyou:

    Good Morning Everyone.

    I just wanted to let everyone know that I lost two inches overall!!!! I am so excited.

    I had my morning coffee and then one whole grain blueberry waffle plain.

    I can finally eat!!!!

    Hope that everyone is having a restful weekend. My Sunday is going to be quiet... well that is as quiet as it can be with a two year old :laugh:

    Happy Sunday! Sorry it's SO late in the day for me to post! Yesterday I was good...stayed within calories. Had a hot dog while we were out watching Stock Car racing. And I had a McDonalds Asian Salad as a late lunch. Also ran for an hour.

    Today I've done well also although made some poor choices, stayed under my limit. Here's what I've had:

    Breakfast:
    2 c. coffee with 2 tbsp. Sugar Free vanilla caramel creamer, Lenders Blueberry Bagel with 2 tbsp fat free strawberry cream cheese, 8 oz. Diet cran-grape juice, 1 multivitamin, 1 med. banana.

    AM snack:
    Soft-baked Kashi TLC blackberry graham bar

    Lunch:
    28 Flour Tostitos chips (2 servings), 1 2% milk string cheese, 1 med. apple.

    Afternoon snack:
    8 Big marshmallows (oops!:noway: ), 100 calorie pack chocolate granola bites.

    Dinner:
    1 whole wheat Carb balance fajita, 1/2 egg beaters single cup with 1/4 c. free shredded mozzarella, 1/8 c. mushrooms, 1/8 c. spinach.

    Exercise--I ran/incline intervals for 1 hour on the treadmill.

    So...I still have about 500 calories remaining for the day. Not sure what I'll have yet, but I'll figure something out.

    **On another note, I'm still having some issues going to the bathroom...even after relief on Friday from the special, never-failing laxatives! Wish my body would just go back to normal! SO...not sure what the scale will say for Tuesday, but I was down...so let's hope I still am! This is SO Frustrating!!!!!**

    Well...I wish you all good luck! Have a great rest of the evening and I'll check back tomorrow!!!:flowerforyou:

    Good morning folks!

    Well, I must say I'm proud of myself right now. I had a relatively stressful weekend (and sadly the stress will continue for a while - it's a LONG story but there's a chance we may have to declare bankruptcy :noway: :cry: ...we rent and so on so it wouldn't be like losing our home but a really $#itty situation regardless!) but I'm NOT tempted to make up for my stress with eating. It's *almost* enough to compensate for this possible financial bombshell.

    I'll try to post my meals later - busy day ahead!

    Happy Monday everyone and let's stick to it!! :flowerforyou:

    I'm sorry to hear about your so-called stress! I'd be in a PANIC! But sounds like you have control of yourself...so GOOD JOB!:flowerforyou: We are here if you ever need to talk!!!

    Thanks Kristin :flowerforyou:

    It's a really big deal to me to see that this prospect isn't making me bottom out. IF this should happen, it's around for 6 years of my life, but the fact that food isn't what I'm looking to for comfort is a change that will matter for the rest of my life :smile:

    Just keep thinking positive. My husband and I have been looking at the same thing. It is a hard situation ... and it makes it harder when their are little ones involved. I have found a solution to my part but my husbands ... well like you said it's around for six years. I wish you all the luck and patience. Keep yourself healthy!!!

    Here if you need someone to vent to.

    Dinner:
    1 c. HomeMade Creamy Mac & Cheese (for recipe see "Healthier mac & Cheese?" thread), HomeMade basic Salad with Spritzer dressing.

    PM Snacks:
    1/2 c. Sherbet with 2 tbsp. cool whip free.

    Workout plan--1/2 hour running at the gym and 1 hour Body Pump class.

    So...I actually ended up NOT eating the almonds and instead of Mac and Cheese we had turkey brats and corn on the cob. But I still stayed within calories. My workout went as planned and I did have Sherbet and cool whip this evening. Just took a laxative again...my tummy is totally bunched up and hard like rock. I bought a bunch of things to try naturally to help...hopefully I can go back to normal! But tonight it's a laxative. I'll start a new thread in the morning...or if anyone is up and on here before me, go ahead with the week 3 thread!

    Good night friends!!!:yawn:
