It's been a rough couple of days. My FIL was having chest pains at work yesterday, so he went to the hospital and ended up having 3 stints put in. Thankfully, he didn't actually have a heart attack and a lot of damage. So glad they caught it early.

Today

B- Activia yogurt

L- 1 cup Fiber One cereal, 1/2 cup Hood milk

S- Oatmeal raisin cereal bar

D- Spaghetti

Glad to hear your fil is ok. I'm sure it was such a scare for the family.

Georgia girl - sorry bout your fil - glad he's on the mend.

TOday:

B: 6 oz ff icelandic yogurt

S: 2 sf popsicles, 1 c. smartfood popcorn (ugghh - so good new flavor - peanut butter apple)

L: 2 tbls pb, 2 slices apple - shouldnt have had snack

D: 2.5 oz chicken mirabella, 1/3 c. sauteed zucchini

might have chocolate milk later (local dairy farm makes the best chocolate skim milk - using splenda - only has 10 more calories than regular skim - so good!)

Hi Everyone!

This is my first time posting my meals. Can someone tell me if they feel I am eating well? I feel I am eating small portions and healthy but I am losing slowly. I'm sure it's me being impatient.

B: 1/2 of a protein shake (vanilla soymilk, 1/4 banana, protein, ice)

l: Gyro (only ate the lamb/beef meat inside and it had some taziki sauce-- maybe 3 ounces), 5 french fries-- too full

d: 1 filet of Orangy rought fish (100 calories/20 grams of protein... so delicious and sooo filling!)

s: string cheese wrapped in slic of turkey meat

I am at a stand still. I have had 2 fills and hardly eat anything... but I am going to log everything HERE. Any feed back is welcomed!

B- 1/2 serving of egg beaters

S - low fat string cheese

L - Lean Cuisine Salisbury Steak & Mac - ate about 1/2

D - 3 pieces of baked shrimp tempura and some tempura veggies

My band is VERY tight in the AM. I drink a little warm water before I eat to help loosen it up.

Okay, I'm trying out this new site I found. I orginally used it to make my tracker only. But I've found that it has a lot more to offer too.

I hate having to track my food but this was easy so I'm going to give it a try. www.myfitnesspal.com

I don't get it, breakfast doesn't want to go down, but I am starving this evening. So strange.

I don't think I could handle a fill. I am going to have to get the carbs in order. Eating them is causing me to crave them even more.

Today, I had a pretty typical day...

Lunch: 1 cup pistachios in the shell (maybe 1/2 cup without shells?) eaten over a period of time

My dinner varies but I usually have similar breakfasts and lunches... I mix it up a little, but I rely on my favorites.
