I'm Not Even Posting Sunday's Food

Okay, that's a lie, but it was a terrible day. The only good thing about it is it's in the past.

Breakfast: Skim milk with whey protein, cinnamon, and nutmeg; fruit smoothie (banana and yogurt).

Festival of shame: Seriously, the rest of the day was crazy. Candy, Pringles snack sticks or something like that, mixed nuts, and so on. I lost track of how much.

Cheat meal (dinner): Leftover Chinese food of some sort, slice of pizza, some snack crackers, some m&ms.

Yeah, not the best day. Whatever. It's in the past. Moving on.

And now the goal is to make sure I lose this week.

Party Rules Apply

Well, count this as an extra cheat day--not the I need an extra one, as I've had "bad" days this week already. But we had a family game night tonight, so party rules apply...

Breakfast: Skim milk with whey protein, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Fruit smoothie (yogurt and banana).

Lunch: Sharp cheddar cheese, salad (cup of spinach, cup of Romaine, serving of bell peppers (red, orange, yellow, and green mix), serving of grilled chicken, olive oil, balsamic vinegar), carrots, apple.

Dinner: About three slices of pizza (Chicago or party cut, about 10 squares)--cheese, various meats, peppers, onions, black olives, and so on. Piece of chocolate cake with icing, Triple chocolate ice cream--maybe 1.5 scoops in "normal" scoops.

Yes, there was cake and ice cream. Ruth turns 29 again tomorrow, so we had cake and ice cream. So it goes...

A Loss Makes Everything Okay, Right?

So I did lose this week, just not as much as I could have. That's what I get for giving in to cravings, I suppose!

Breakfast: Skim milk with whey protein, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Fruit smoothie (yogurt and banana).

Lunch: Salad (cup of spinach, cup of Romaine, serving of bell peppers (red, orange, yellow, and green mix), serving of grilled chicken, olive oil, balsamic vinegar), carrots, apple.

Dinner: Chicken breast, two servings of asparagus.

The magic number for today: 7.496.

Yeah, I need to get back to losing an average of 3 pounds a week...

Thursday was Okay

And Thursday wasn't the hottest, either... More chips, but that's done now.

Breakfast: Skim milk with whey protein, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Fruit smoothie (yogurt and banana).

Lunch: Salad (cup of spinach, cup of Romaine, serving of bell peppers (red, orange, yellow, and green mix), serving of grilled chicken, olive oil, balsamic vinegar), carrots, apple.

Dinner: A couple of servings of potato chips, bottom round, about half a serving of broccoli, and three slices of whole-grain wheat bread.

Yeah, the bread is not the best, either. But there you have it. Not the worst I've done, really.

Wednesday, Wednesday...

Wednesday wasn't the best. Nothing too crazy, but a bit heavy on the bread and cheese at the end of the day. Okay, a double- or triple-bit.

Breakfast: Skim milk with whey protein, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Fruit smoothie (yogurt and banana).

Lunch: Salad (cup of spinach, cup of Romaine, serving of bell peppers (red, orange, yellow, and green mix), serving of grilled chicken, olive oil, balsamic vinegar), carrots, apple.

Dinner: No actual dinner. Several servings of sharp cheddar cheese, four slices of whole-grain wheat bread, and a few servings of chips. Okay, the chips were very bad. The rest was just sort-of bad.

I'm here to tell you, Thursday wasn't much better...

Home Sick

Wasn't a good start to the day, as it involved me realizing there was no way I was going to make it through the day at school and thus had to go to the school to get things ready for my not being there. Breakfast ended up being late, and lunch later, so dinner was really lunch, and there were only two meals.

However, I had stuff I shouldn't, so I guess I made up for missing a meal by eating junk.

Breakfast: Skim milk with whey protein, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Fruit smoothie (banana and yogurt).

Snack (?): I had a Pringles wheat stick thing, honey butter flavor. Cody wanted me to try it. Crazy good. I must never have these in my home.

Lunch: Salad (cup of spinach, cup of Romaine, serving of bell peppers (red, orange, yellow, and green mix), serving of grilled chicken, olive oil, balsamic vinegar), carrots, apple, slice of whole-grain wheat bread, sharp cheddar cheese, a couple of Snickers Peanut Butter square things (long story, not happy about it, but moving on).

Snack: Slice of whole-grain wheat bread, sharp cheddar cheese, potato chips (maybe two servings).

That's it for today. Back on track tomorrow, I swear!

Oh Yeah... Fish!

I've been neglecting my fish needs... or the fish I'm supposed to be eating, anyway. I got on that tonight. Let's hope it makes a huge difference or something!

Breakfast: Skim milk with whey protein and cinnamon, fruit smoothie (yogurt and banana).

Lunch: Salad (cup of spinach, cup of Romaine, serving of bell peppers (red, orange, yellow, and green mix), serving of grilled chicken, olive oil, balsamic vinegar), carrots, apple.

Snack: Prunes.

Dinner: Baked tilapia, two servings of asparagus, sharp cheddar cheese.

Of course, the grocery store only had frozen chicken breasts... so they are thawing in the sink right now. I think I'll be up very early, as I'm now out of grilled chicken. Nothing says "Good morning," like the smell of grilled chicken!
