Wednesday -accountability (I have the right day this time!)

 Hmmm...let's think back to yesterday.   Seems I'm a day late and a dollar short.

1/2 a turkey / american cheese sandwich for breakfast

snack was a few pretzels dipped in peanut butter

lunch was homemade vegetable beef soup - maybe a cup

snack was five pretzels dipped in peanut butter

dinner was boneless, skinless chicken thigh cooked with my homemade salsa, few bites of potatoes and four bites of fried okra.

Then to be really bad I had 1/2 cup of Blue Bell Southern Hospitality Ice Cream - yeah bad but I was stressing.

 peanutbutter day for you huh?  :)

Yesterday was an o.k. food day---not bad.  I had to get my B12 shot yesterday so hopefully that will help with my energy level.

 Hey Penni, how about working on increasing your protein intake....would like to see it more 90 and above???

Ok here was my wednesday!  I've been doing good and I'm weighing in tomorrow and hoping the scale has gone down!

Breakfast - Fuzzy navel protein shake and low sugar yogurt

Snack - String cheese

Lunch - Turkey and cheese on a multrigrain english muffin and grapes

Dinner - Grilled shrimp and grilled zucchinni (fresh out of our garden!) spritzed with olive oil - so yummy!

Snack - String cheese and an orange

64 oz of water and a 30 minutes exercise dvd

 ok, not bad for you!!

Wednesday was day two of the 5 day pouch test.  It was definitely harder than the day before, but I survived.  Here's what I had in no particular order.  I actually feel bad about the banana, but I atleast I ate it with a protein.   

3 EAS Carbvantage Protein Shakes
2 cups of coffee with  SF vanilla creamer
1 SF pudding with whole scoop of Unjury
2 low sugar yogurts
SF jello (no protein)
1 banana
2 mozzie sticks

calories around 985- protein 104 grams - carbs around 66ish
 

 two down, 3 to go,,,,,stick with it!!

So I was having a really great day yesterday and then I decided to take an ambien.

I really ought to know by now that I need to go straight to bed when I take one of those. I decided to stay up until I felt drowsy and paid the price.

B: greens, chicken and beans soup (135 cal)
S: honey almond flax protein bar (140 cal)
L: shrimp, beans and greens soup (135 cal)
S: glucerna mini snack bar (80 cal)
D: turkey chili (180 cal)
S: 2 cups popcorn popped in 1 tbsp. EVOO (50 cal)

Here's where it gets interesting:
S: Kashi cinnamon coffee cake protein/fiber bar (150 cal)
S: honey almond flax bar (140 cal)
S: nsa fudgesicle (40 cal)

I don't remember any of them--but I ate them!
Calories: 1050, Protein: 89, Carbs: 129

Calories and protein were fine, but I try to keep my carbs under 100. Plus it was late evening eating, ugh.

The moral of the story is that I should have gone to bed. Live and learn I suppose.

Got any Ambien to share?    lol

I got hit with the snacky snacky monster late last night, which is why I had a banana and string cheese.  If only I had been tired enough to sleep - I told my husband three different times that I wish I could just go to sleep to keep from eating.
