I was bad and didn't post to my journal for yesterday. Let's see if I can remember what I ate....
9/6/03: It was a pretty rushed day. I went to work for six hours, then took my eldest son shopping AGAIN! I don't know if I like this high school teenagery thing. It sure is getting expensive (I sure adore that boy though). But that's another topic, back to the subject at hand.
Breakfast-Chorizo and egg, milk.
Lunch-Got too busy with paperwork at the office, so only had 1/2 cup cottage cheese.
Dinner-It was pretty late when I got home, about 8:00 so I didn't feel like eating a full meal. Had one piece of leftover chicken and about 1 cup of salad.
Dessert-Two sugar free jellos with whipped cream. Very yummy.
9/7/03: May as well post what I ate today because I know I won't have time tomorrow. It was a busy day again. Was about to go out the door this morning to do groceries at Costco when my eldest son ran upstairs and said that he lost hold of a heavy speaker while he was helping his dad unload DJ equipment from our minivan and it crushed the tip of his right middle finger. Fortunately we leave 1/2 mile away from the doctor (also where I work) so I took him in. He only suffered a hairline fracture with skin avulsion. Poor guy, he's an artist (extremely talented if I may say so myself) and was so worried as the injury was on his dominant hand. He should be fine in about a week or so. After that I had to run to the pharmacy for his antibiotic, ran to Costco to do groceries, rushed home to put them away, then was out the door to take my other two boys shopping for MORE clothes, then to Target for household stuff, and last but not least picked up a few more school necessities. Boy am I chatty tonight.
Breakfast-Needless to say, not time.
Lunch-Bought a hot dog at Costco but threw out the bun, diet coke.
Dinner-By the time I was able to sit down and have a moment to myself it was already 10:00. Had two pieces of lunch turkey rolled with cream cheese, a cup of stawberries with whipped cream.
Oh, I almost forgot, I lost another pound! I'm down to 214 and have lost 10 pounds, whoohoo!
Hey there Doe, thanks for the vote of confidence. I was worried about the scale at first, but I'm over that now (at least for a little while). Are you on Atkins too?
Karen, you're right, I think the problem may have been that we weren't eating enough. I had fears about adding more carbs, but I haven't had a problem. Glad to see you're having more veggies. I remember you saying you didn't eat them as much before. Keep up the good work, you're doing great.
MeMe, I cant' wait to go clothes shopping for myself. I think I've gone down one dress size. I don't want to hit the mall until my clothes are sloppy big though. That way it'll be a shock to see what my new size is.
Ok, I've edited three times now, time to hit the hay. Good night!
