New Week - New Attempts on consistency - What's on your plate?
I started this, then fell off again. Trying to keep this thread going.
I had hoped to sleep late this morning, but it didn't happen. According to my BodyMedia Fit Link I slept 5:35 last night. (Got the BFM for Christmas and LOVE it!!). Today's agenda - take it easy except for come cardio later this evening (probably going to work on my lack of skills jumping rope). I work 12 hours, but plan to walk the floor a lot so I can add up my steps on BMF lol.
B1 - mint cookie protein made w/ water
B2 - egg stirs, turkey bacon, tomato on ww tortilla
L - Nik's Taco Casserole (that I somehow forgot to add taco seasoning to... still good), mega salad
S - gala apple, maybe a click
D - mega salad w/ Tyson ready grilled steak strips
S - turkey/cheese/pickle rollups, maybe another click or mint cookie?
- mega salad with Tyson grilled chicken
I usually end up with random protein drinks throughout the day as well... so with those, so far it is looking like about an 1800 calorie day
I am working my third double of the week so I brought the rest of my salad from yesterday. It takes me 3-4 days to eat a whole salad, lol.
B:Click with my coffee
S:baby bel light swiss roll
L:salad with pepperoni
S:protein shake
D:rest of salad
S:sardines in mustard sauce
Consistency! I was thinking about it whilst I lolled about in bed this morning. If I were consistent--not necessarily perfect, but consistent--I could lose enough weight--supposing my body goes along with the plan-- to go to Europe next fall and not feel like an immobile, fat lump. For some reason I don't want to go to Paris or Venice fat. I would prefer to wait until I'm young, beautiful, and skinny. [cue sardonic laughter]
Anyway, consistency as it looks today:
9:30 -- bite of cheese for the pouch, one Wasa Light for the brain
10:30 -- 1/2 Premier, baked apple
1:30 -- 3 oz. chicken and green beans, and I will weigh the chicken this time!
4:00 -- 1/2 Premier, blueberries
7:00 -- 4 or 5 oz. chicken and brussels sprouts. Weigh that chicken, baby.
10:00 -- 100 calorie popcorn and diet cocoa
Aiming for consistent balance of protein and carbohydrates and to placate the afternoon and nighttime munchie monster.
Good luck, everyone!

Should've read this earlier in the day - maybe it would've kept me on track better. Ugh.
B - Protein shake
L - out with family - split steak with hubby. had some bites of mashed potato and zucchini. Should've been just that but I did have one piece of flatbread and some chips/salsa too. Grrr - bad Amy!
Snack - munched on some fritos? WTH. Where is the nutrients in those?! AHHH!
Dinner - WILL DO BETTER - roast beef, peas
Snack - WILL DO BETTER - apple with greek yogurt, cheesestick if needed
Looking forward to "back to routine" on Wednesday...which for me is going to include back to the Y with the rest of the New Years Resolution folks. Except I won't be a new member - I've been "donating" my fee to them for awhile. I am giving up on waiting for my foot to get "all better" and going to find something that I can handle doing while it continues to heal. I need to do it - I just can't keep putting it off and waiting for change to happen if I am not going to do anything to make it happen! In the meantime, it may be time to purge the cupboards here as I obviously can't be trusted lately. Ugh.
