What are you eating/doing today? (Wednesday)

Good morning!

Off to work, then I have my 9-month follow-up appt at the hospital.  Working on cover letters as I'm trying to line up a practicum for the spring/summer so that I can finish this degree, and am really hoping that someone will actually pay me for my practicum (almost unheard of in social work).

B - Greek yogurt, strawberries, Kashi cereal (2T)
S - oz old cheddar, grapes
L - baby spinach, sesame seeds, LF dressing, turkey
S - 1/2 protein bar
D - don't know yet, maybe tuna and a few ww crackers
S - don't know

Have a great day, everyone!

Good morning Karen!!! Where do you live? what area are you looking to do your practicum? good luck with getting paid, that'll be a challenge.

i had a much better day yesterday. I went back to using my timer on my phone to remind me about 30 minutes no drinking, which really helped. Not just with the no drinking, but to remind myself to wait. I was "hungry" last night, but made myself wait till 8pm to have a snack, which really worked well. Thanks to everyone who chimed in yesterday to remind me about the bigger picture, and the techniques to stop stupidness!

B- egg scrambled in microwave, 1 oz light cheese
S - bran muffin and cheese
L - meatballs and broccoli
S - yogurt with bran
D - fish, some kind of veggie
S - banana

Morning all :)

I miss you guys! Busy, buys, busy! Council today but not sure if I'm going yet.  Kind of hoping not, as I can watch it on my desktop AND my TOM is freakin' out of control (kinda hard to keep getting up to leave in the middle of the meeting. lol)  We have the most awesome cafe here at City Hall - the menu is unbelievable, quite frankly.  Going to get lunch there today.

B - coffee with milk x 2, protein shake
S - 1 mini babybel cheese, 1/2 Kashi pumpkin bar
L - 1/2 wrap (Grilled AAA beef with romaine lettuce, bean sprouts, peppers and chili aioli)
S - leftover lunch if I'm hungry, tea in the afternoon
D - leftover pasta with tons of veggies and beef

REALLY need to work on my water intake - I'm finding myself quite dehydrated.  Dilemma - drink lots = pee lots for me, pee lots = leaving meetings to pee. LOL  Anyway, I'm going to be much more mindful of my water.

Have a wonderful Wednesday!

I am soooo tired lately I feel like I just can't catch up on my sleep. Very slow drive into Ottawa this morning took me nearly 2 hours from Rockland. Moving in less then a week can't wait thats going to cut my driving

B - 5 tbsp of oatmeal with 1 tbsp sucralose
S - Cheese String
L - Homemade Chili
S - Peperette
D - Chicken with salad
S - Protein Shake

Have a good day everyone

1228cals, 53.8g fats, 88.3g carbs, 125g protein and 21.4g fibre

have a good day

EDITED: How can I add about 10g/15g more of fibre per day??? I need to get in more fibre to help my issue out.. thanks gals :)

it was suggested to me by the dietitian at HRRH to add bran to my diet, you know the bran you make muffins out of (not all bran buds or flakes, but the actual bran). I add two Tbsp to yogurt, and its actually pretty good. I'm sure you could add it to other things too. It's kind of dry and flaky, so you need to add it to something moist. I havent added it to anything savoury, like soup, but it'd be worth a try if you wanted to.

Thank you Monica! I will give it a try!
