Whatcha Eating Today VSGers? - Thursday
Feeling better today -- but I am so tired of not sleeping!! Can't sleep at night--my mind is always racing, so I end up dozing during the day. Hate that - makes me feel like I'm wasting my life away. I have to drive a friend to an appointment every morning at 6:00 - if I take my axiety medication, I can sleep but then I'm way too groggy first thing in the morning. Can't wait for the frigid weather to be over - seems I have more energy when it's warmer. (I know, ***** ***** ***** - never happy!)

Went to the dentist, it seems your teeth do not get better with weightloss. LOL Although the dentist did tell me one of my BP meds I am scheduled to stop CAN help my gums. Anyway, it really messed up my eating schedule so I have been improvising.
B: String Cheese, coffee
L: Cosi Turkey Chili medium sized.
S: Dannon Light and Fit Yogurt
D: Roast beef, veg (probably 1oz potato)
Oh yeah! I use two packages of perdue ground chicken. Finely mince veggies in the food processor, squeeze a little I'd the juice out. Add it to the chicken with one egg and a bunch of spices like chili powder, onion powder, parsley. Form into meatballs and bake until done at 375. I heat them as needed in a pan with buffalo sauce.
I usually use different veggies depending on what I have in the fridge. This time i used carrots, celery, onion, few cloves of garlic.
B: 1 Atkins Cafe Caramel Shake
S: 1/3 Premier Protein shake - chocolate
L: P3 protein pack
S: spicy peanuts
D: Beef stew w/ veg
S: Triscuits and pimento cheese
Hi Mary,
I've been having trouble sleeping as well. I lay in bed and think about what might calm me - a glass of wine or a serving of some food. I don't give in to it. I'm not going to blow my weight loss with late night snacks, but its been frustrating. Sorry you are having trouble, as well. I hope it passes soon.
