I really don't know what I'm at today and that's kinda sucky. I was at 694 before dinner. DH wanted to go out. I had a funcky looking grilled chicken leg, fries, garlic bread (palm sized). I'm still off the diet cokes today. It was harder to stay off of it today. I was eye balling DH's diet coke all during dinner. The caffeine withdrawals equals a big old headache part of the day.  I'm on this eating plan hard core this week, no cheating, no exceptions.... let's hope I see some results come Monday.

Shoulda ate more veggies, no fruit at all! EDIT:  oops!  I did eat one medium golden delicious apple at noonish.

B: 2 egg patties, 3 slices canadian bacon, 1 sausage pattie, sprinkle of fiesta cheese to make it stick together as a sandwich. L: A delicious romaine salad with fiesta cheese, parmesan cheese, feta cheese stuffed green olives, pepperoni, a crumbled turkey burger patty, and spicy ranch dressing.

Oh Beth.. I did NO exercise as usual.  I'm still nursing this freaking hip~!  (Luckily there's much less hip to lug around). Yesterday was a dumb food day... 1 slice of roast beast w/1 slice of provolone the legs off of a rotisserie chicken My sister, Carol,  made me no carb meatloaf and I ate a bunch of that... I dunno how much... several thinner slices and I indulged in about 1/2 teaspoon of ketchup with it. In the middle of the night I had another slice of roast beast w/1 slice of provolone I'm hitting up the heavy cream in my coffee today.. 2 cups so far.. so I gotta ease up. I don't think I got my food in the other night when 2 of my sisters came with me to the diner.  I ordered chicken wings, ham and cheese omelet and a side of sausage.  I ate the side of sausage and 1 chicken wing (my eyes were bigger than my stomache). We're hoping to kidnap Joyce over to the city tonight.  We're just going to pretend to make a wrong turn when we go for her wig in Jersey City later... take her to ferrare's for a canoli and a nice cappucino.  Of course I won't have either, but I'll have a cup of coffee and pick my daughter up some nice torrone to send back home. Be good everyone!

Have you tried that low carb ketchup from Heinz?  I've been buying it from Wal-Mart and I'm using it in my meatloaf along with romano, parmesan and various veggies.  It's really good and has a great tomatoey flavor.  I actually prefer it over other ketchup because it's not as sweet.  Indulge, guilt free!

I've never even heard of it!!!   I've managed to eat my eggs plain.. but it's so hard with meatloaf... it just cries for ketchup! Thanks for the tip, Chris!!

It's marketed two different ways I believe:  Heinz® Reduced Sugar Ketchup The new Heinz® Reduced Sugar Ketchup offers 75 percent less sugar, two-thirds fewer calories and only one gram of carbohydrates. The latest in the line of lifestyle-oriented products, Heinz Reduced Sugar Ketchup has much of the same great, thick and rich taste of traditional Heinz Ketchup." Pour It On... Now you can pour on the Heinz Ketchup without piling on carbs or calories. That’s because Heinz has introduced Heinz One Carb Ketchup. The product has – you guessed it – one gram of total carbohydrates per serving vs. four grams per serving in traditional Heinz Ketchup. And Heinz One Carb Ketchup is no one-trick pony. The condiment also has 75 percent less sugar and only one-third the calories of the traditional variety. Probably the only thing it doesn’t have less of is flavor – the taste of One Carb Ketchup is comparable to the classic Heinz version. View some recipe ideas now.

Chris, Try mixing the Heinz Low Carb ketchup with equal amount of balsamic vinegar and using it as a glaze for your meatloaf...I know it sounds weird, but it is yummy.

Low carb ketchup?? I've really got to start paying more attention at the grocery store when I get back home! Thanks for the tip.
