 Great Day Anita!!! And YES you are in control again - repeat after me - I AM THE CAPTAIN, I AM THE CAPTAIN, I AM THE CAPTAIN... All really good choices, and of course it helps when you can get the temptations out of the house, which I also know you worked on and did...Keep it comin' this way... See ya tomorrow, glad to have you back posting with us...Alesia

Alesia, Yes I have to keep saying I am the captain. i am very easy tempted... i have to be in control and use my tool. i want to loose and not gain... did you see i had white bread but just a slice , today also. i will try and limit the white bread. i am out of my wheat bread and ate hubby's white bread.. see you tommorow...  I am glad to be back with you all....  Anita

Hi Connie, Appreciate the thoughts coming my way, will post as I recover from the affects of GOOD DRUGS ...Don't worry too much about the totals for the day, some days are just going to be higher than others, just keep it in a good range and keep making the right choices - was probably a combination of the cheese and the power crunch that pushed you so high, I know these 2 items can ring in quite a few cals on my Fitday page too... Have a good day tomorrow...See ya soon...Alesia

Ok, so I haven't been keeping track of nothing lately. I make sure I get at least one protein drink in per day. So, I want to make some better changes in my diet. I don't really need to loose weight, just want to eat healthier. I've made some very poor food choices this past year just to maintain my weight and stay off of TPN. Now that my health is better and I'm doing well, it's time to think long term health.  Here's my day.  B - weight control oatmeal S - sf hot chocolate w/ vanilla protein L - dbl cheese burger (no bun) apple dipper (no carmel**** tea D - steak sandwich (no bun) 1/2 order curly fries Totals:  Cals - 1110  Fat - 53g  Carbs - 67g  Protein - 90g Laurie

Hi Laurie, Nice to see you in the postings...I found accountability to be very beneficial in helping me in making the right choices, hope this post helps you achieve your goals... Food choices look great, if you have been off track in the past with poorer choices I don't see them reflected here, protein is good, carbs great (as compared to me, usually over 100 a day), cals are a little low but if this amount is keeping you in maintenance and you are not losing any muscle mass then its probably a good amount for you ( have you ever been in a tracker to calculate the range of cals you need a day to maintain your weight? there are a couple of good ones out there)... Anyway, hope to see you often on our post...Have a great evening...  Alesia

B- atkins shake                           160 L- tuna salad                                296 cup celery, cup cucumbers,   19+29 1 1/2 T ranch dressing               111 S- 1 oz cashews                           163 S- 10 oz baked haddock (I overate that and my gut is killing me!)  365 1 cup cucumbers                           29 1 1/2 T ranch dressing                   111 SF lime jello this is something I feel is more work, but I am working ON it!

Hi Melody I'm sorry, what is that you are working on, I think I missed something in the posting?  Food choices looked good - nice and healthy...Added up you cal total 1283 , seems about right from what I see in others totals...Have you ever tried a tracker to calculate a calorie range to shoot for to keep in maintenance, once you have those numbers you can adjust if you still are trying to drop a few more... I think I would definately be if I overate, so if you are not barfing, that is good and the little belly ache is a great teaching mechanism for not making the same mistake twice (kinda like my dumping on too much sugar, hate that feeling so try not to overdo and make myself miserable) Did you have any luck getting up with someone to help you cut and paste the fitday stuff? See ya in the next accountability post... Alesia

Hi all.

First I will post how I copy and paste from sparkpeople. I have each site open on my computer and after I click on this messageboard Where it says message I click on and change HTML to text then click ok. That only keeps the extra lines from transferring over but keeps all the totals.Then I copy my list from spark people and paste it in message area. Then I can add whatever else I want to my message. I hope this helps.
