Day 29

an apple and a half a healthy choice 220 calories...why?...because I AM GOING TO THE STATE FAIR TONIGHT AND PLAN ON EATING A LOT!!!!!!!!!!!!...OK not a lot a lot, but I plan on tasting many things..Lets just assume the calories are going to reach 2,000 for the day. I have been trying to do as much active stuff as possible at work, but I know its not enough. We are going to see Mary Poppins tonight so I wont have time to work out when I get home. Not a good day for the diet. LOVE going to the fair with my brother. We do it every year and it is my favorite thing. We always see whatever musical is playing during the fair and give it to each other as our Christmas gift. so fun!

Ok so this is what I ate at the fair: Deep fried Brisket, Deep Fried jalapeno stuffed with hamburger meat and covered in queso, little sausage things (way overpriced and not that great), deep fried cookie dough, deep fried smores, deep fried peaches and cream, and deep fried pizza. Guess what! I didnt gain a single pound!

Day 28

After getting on the scale this morning, I was depressed (added a pound to my life). So, today I have had an apple (70 cals). two cups of green tea, and some string cheese (60 cals).

So, if you ever say to yourself, "Self, you should buy a frozen dish of tuna casserole. It looks good." Dont listen. It's not. I tried to eat that for lunch today, but only choked down a little over half of it. so thats about 150 calories. and some carrots about 50 calories so thats 330 for the day so far, and then Im going to get coffee with a friend which is 90 calories.

Had a turkey wrap 250 cals, some penut butter m&ms (no more than 100 calories worth) and a 60 calorie frozen thing. Also had a small salad with a little dressing about 70 calories

Thats 810 for the day and I burned 525 running.

Day 27

I didnt think I did poorly yesterday, but the scale said differently. I had a quiche for lunch and then some chips and queso (really not a ton) then I had a coconut crusted shrimp salad with like barely any dressing at all. I woke up this morning and weighed myself. I had added a pound of body weight. WHATEV!!!

Day 26

Day 26 was Saturday. I dont remember what I ate....hmmmm....Ok I went to Jasons Deli with my grandma and had a half a turkey wrap (tiny bit of ranch on the side) a cup of turkey chili and a frozen yogurt cone. About 550 calories

I cant remember what I ate after that....OH YEA I went over to Mark and Erins and ate chips, apples, bread, and cheese fondue YUMMY!!!! Then we had sausage and then chocolate and strawberrys and bananas. SO GOOD!...not great calories though...

So, thats day 26. not great. Sorry!

Day 25

I had to stay at the house all day because a plumber was coming to replace our toilet. So, I havent gone to work out yet, but I have been cleaning all day and Im re doing a rocking chair for John's friend's new baby. So I figure im doing more than I normally do at work every day.

So far today I have had a 12 count nugget from Chickfila. SO GOOD. I had bbq sauce with it. That puts me at 440 calories. Im going to either have a salad tonight or another 12 piece nugget. So good and so low in calories for the amount of food you get. I need to go work out at some point today and if I do, I will eat more for dinner.

I have the privilege of going to see FAME tonight with Heather, Annie, and Erin (my fabulous sister in law and her friends) I cant wait!

Ok so we went to the mall for dinner and I had a Greek Salad (minus the olives...YUCK) Dressing on the side. I would say about 350 calories. I also got a large half diet dr. Pepper half real. Im going to say it was prob 150 calories.

THEN I ate thin mints at the movie 220 calories

Then I came home and had this frozen sugar free thing for 60 calories and THEN I had a chocolate chip cookie (100 calories). I found it in the pantry from last week and couldnt say no to it! Horrible!

I didnt work out today either, but I feel like I was on my feet all day so I know I burned more calories than in a regular office setting day. 1310 calories for the day.

Day 24

Day 24 has left me tired and hungry. I tried the dress on last night and it still doesnt fit, so I have revved up my plan. I woke up at 6:45 this morning and hit the gym. I burned 400 calories and am headed back there this afternoon. I have eaten a string cheese (60 cals) a kolache (tore off most of the bread) 100 cals and a salad with peppers, carrots and spinach leaves (200 cals) That brings me to negative 40 calories. Not bad, not bad. I think I might get some chick fila nuggets after work ( I get off early today) because I need some protein!

I walked the dogs after work and burned about 200 calories (walked for 40 minutes)

I then went to the Pregnancy Center banquet and ate mashed potatoes and some type of brisket. YUMMY. Thats all I ate though. I didnt eat the dessert! GO ME!!

I figure I ended the day up somewhere around 500 calories. Crazy. I prob ate around 1100

Day 23

So last night kicked my butt. I burned about 500 calories total. Crazy. I was sweating like crazy. I will be back at the gym again tonight doing the same thing, and can I just say that the Black Eyed Peas cd is the best cd ever to run to. Keeps you going.

OK so today. I went to Starbucks and got a turkey bacon egg white sandwich. 330 calories. I have had 40 calories of sugar free cranberry juice (supposed to rid me of all my toxins...who knows) and I also got a pumpkin spice latte non fat no whip. I had two sips of it and threw it away. If you are going to get a pumpkin Spice Latte...get the real thing with the whip, otherwise its a waste. We will call that 10 calories.

So I'm already at 380 for the day and its only 11. That's not good, but I'm going to go home tonight and have another turkey wrap. Its low in cals and then Ill go the gym again after homegroup.

Ok its 1:30 and I have eaten three California rolls from yesterday's purchase. Still delicious. That's 105 calories-ish. I'm going to have the last four before I leave for the day so that's another 140 calories. and another 8 oz cranberry juice for 40 calories. That brings me to 665 for the day. No good.

Had a wrap last night and some chips. 350 calories. Also had a few fries and some of a chocolate shake when John got Wendys last night. JERK! We will call that 150 calories. 1165 for the day. Not good, not bad. I didnt work out and the dress still doesnt fit.....

Day 22

Apple: Check
Coffee: Check

Calories so far: 130

Today is a new day. Today I will not eat 12 oreos. Today I will go to my pilates class and then run afterwards. Today I will eat a salad for lunch. Tonight when I get home I will not eat crap. I will eat healthy food....Thats my plan for now at least:)Its 10am so I have a ways to go...

Its 1:45 and I have now had TONS of water a spinach salad with chopped peppers and carrots and homemade dressing (Thank you brenna and Casey) Thats about 110 calories if that.

I then went to the grocery store to buy diapers and bought myself some california rolls with brown rice and no soy sauce. I have had two. Thats 70 calories. I will have two more before the day is over so lets just say 140

Im sipping on some hot green tea right now. NASTY!, but 0 calories and its supposed to help your metabolism. I wish I was that skinny little toothpick person that could eat whatever she wanted, but alas, I am not.

Just had another sushi roll. So thats another 35 calories.

So, total for the day so far is 415. Im going to try to stop until dinner. Its so boring at work today so there is nothing to do and so I have plenty of time to eat...

Ate a Hershey kiss before I left for work 26 calories

Came home and made a delicious wrap! turkey, basil paste, tiny tiny bit of mayo, mustard, and spinach leaves in a 50 calorie wrap. Ate that with a bag of 100 calorie Cheetos and a small cup of light cranberry juice. Im going call it a 540 calorie dinner, but I dont think it was that much. 981 calories for the day. I'm so going to eat a 100 calorie pack of cookies when I get home from the gym.

I was told today by a trainer that if I want to fit into that dress by the 10th, than I need to run 3-4 miles a day....

Day 21

Well, the weekend wasnt horrible to me. I got on the scale this morning and was ok. I have gone back up, but that is to be expected on a weekend. Today is a new day, but it is going to be a VERY HARD night.

So far today I have had an apple, coffee with cream and non fat cream, 8 chips, salsa, peppers, and string cheese. Calories for today so far are 310.

"Why so little calories?", you might ask. Well, let me tell you why. Tonight we are meeting our homegroup coaches at a delicious Mexican Restaurant called Matt's. They have freaking amazing Queso and I would like to be able to partake in the eating of some of that queso...then I will eat a salad. So, I have to save at least 1200 calories. Ill prob go over, but it will be to the gym with my butt after dinner.

The word failure is in my dictionary. Im a failure. Im very mad at myself and very mad at John....I shall explain. We went to Matt's Mexican place for dinner and I did pretty well. Didnt eat to many chips and we split fajitas. I didnt load them down with all kinds of crap either. I also ordered water.

BUT!!! Then, we come home and its like all willpower leaves me and I decide to eat 12 oreo cookies and 3 chocolate chip cookies and then some chips and salsa (not many but still) What the HECK!!?!?! Thats so ridiculous! We never have this stuff in our house, but we had a bunch of guys over on Saturday and they were supposed to eat this food, but they didnt. So, now its in my house. Im throwing it all away tonight when I get home. Im so mad. I also didnt work out. So I suck. Dont even want to know the calories......

Day 20

Well, today started out well, but I think I have screwed it up. At the same time, my food guardian angels are taking care of me..Ill explain in a bit...

So we went to church this morning. I loved the sermon but I hate going to the 9am because I am always tired for the rest of the day.

Anyway, I digress, I ate like 6 oreos. Thats about 300 calories. I also had a cup of milk 130 calories. I also had Subway sandwich with turkey and swiss...I took off most of the bread so that was good. I had a 100 calorie pack of cheetos and a coke. Who knows how many calories...

Ok the good part. So its football day and on football day you make queso. So, I was making my family's famous queso (so hard to resist) I knew I was going to give in but decided it was worth it. So I get everything put in a start cooking it. A few minutes after that I sniff and smell a burnt smell. Thats right. I had burnt the queso and had to throw it all away. A gift from God. I would have eaten half of that. They were watching over me:)

I am also having some SERIOUS stomach issues, so we can just pretend that the oreos have all come out..if you know what Im saying....

I havent worked out yet. I am avoiding it at all costs.. we shall see.

Day 19

So its 10:30 and I need to go to the gym. I have had a chocolate chip cookie..healthy I know...and a bottle of Activia smoothie. I havent looked up the calories yet and dont want to get off my butt, but I will post it later. Today is not starting out great....

I went to the gym and did weights and then I also walked the dogs for 40 minutes.

THEN>>> I went to Brennas and Casey brought Hummus, Sushi, Cracker things (70 calories for two) and chicken salad, and I brought brownies that were 130 calories per each tiny brownie. I only ate one brownie but who knows how much the rest of that stuff was

THEN, John and I went to Chick Fil A and I got a 12 piece nugget (400 cals) and then we went to a movie and I failed! I got a small popcorn, a small kids coke, and a kids gummy candy thing. I stopped counting then. Bad day

Day 18...not so good

I went to Jasons Deli with my family for lunch and had a bowl of soup. Chicken Chili with cheese and onions...I tried to get the cheese on the side but then just ate it anyway.Its 269 without the cheese so lets say 310. Then I had a free frozen yogurt and cone. Thats about 200 calories. I also had a diet Dr. Pepper 0 cals Thats 510 for lunch.

After lunch my mom and I went to Third Monday Trade Days and I got a small snow cone. I cant even imagine how many calories this was..... about 300 calories...what a waste...it was soo freaking small.

For dinner we went to On the Border. We should just call that 1000 calories. I got the soup without chicken, but I also ate lots of chips and had a few bites of Johns brisket tacos. I drank water..

Then I came home and had a few of those root bear coke bottle things...those gummies. I didnt eat many so we will call that 130.

What a wasted day of food. I started out so well with my soup...oh well. Total for the day 1940 WOW. Crazy. Oh I did walk a lot yesterday so thats good.

Day 17

Hello weight 1_9.5 I havent seen you in six months. Welcome back!

Today I have had an apple and am currently drinking a fabulous cup of coffee with half real have fat free cream. Assuming I drink it all thats 130 calories for breakfast. We shall see what the rest of the day brings!

So I just ate a frozen smart balance meal. SUCKED. The beef tasted like rubber. The good news is that it was 180 calories so I can maybe go downstairs later and get a Dr. Pepper! Im going to try to avoid doing that and instead talk myself into a diet Dr. Pepper. So far for the day Im at 310 calories.

The dress zipped up a little bit further today, so thats always nice!

1:50 pm: OUCH Big blow to any confidence I had today... A volunteer, who I have not seen in a while, came in today and upon seeing me asked if I was pregnant....yea, that hurt. Although, since I like to look at the positives, it did stop me from drinking a Dr. Pepper that I was very tempted with.

3:56: Just ate a 100 calorie bag of Sun Chips. So good. I love Sun Chips....I'm now at 410 for the day and might have another later because I'm so dang bored at work. No one is showing up for their appointments and boredom=time to eat..a habbit I must break.

OK so John couldnt come home for dinner (I was going to make Taco Soup) so I went to Chick Fil A. Can you tell I love it? I could eat it every single day for both meals and not get tired of it. Sadly, the calories will not allow that. So total, because I got a diet Dr. Pepper, was 735 calories for dinner. Brings my total for tonight to 1145. Im going to the gym in a bit and will not leave until I have at least burned 200 calories and then I will eat a 100 calorie cookie packet which will bring me back to 1045 for the day. Tomorrow starts the weekend for me, so we shall see......

Day 16

I have lost 6 lbs. I think some of it is water weight but as long as the scale keeps dropping, I'm a happy girl. Now, my dress still does not fit, so Im about to take it to the extreme and try to cut out carbs. I only have 23 days left to fit into the dress...Jennifer (the bride) if you are reading this, no worries. I will fit into it!...No carbs. What a sad life. Im going to try to stick to veggies and eggs and skim milk and boneless skinless chicken breast and fish and fruit. hmmmm we shall see.

On another note, I decided this AFTER I ate breakfast. I had a breakfast burrito from Sonic. I didn't eat the tortilla or the tater tots. I ate sausage, egg, some cheese (not much) jalapenos, onions, and tomatoes. That was about 250 calories! Not worth it. I also had one strawberry for 10 cals and some coffee with cream for about 20 cals (didn't drink much and it was half and half) So far because of my STUPID burrito, im at 280 cals for the day and its 11.

Woe is me. Its 1:45 and I have just eaten lunch. Im having a pity party for myself because I just ate carrots and cucumbers with a tiny bit of balsamic and olive oil. I mean, If I'm going to be honest with myself, it didn't taste bad, its just not what I want!

Oh also, when I started this diet I weighed 1_6 (you dont need to know the middle number) and as of this morning I weigh 1_0, which means I have lost 6 lbs. ROCK ON!

Ok, so I have no will power. I just ate tiramisu. It was soo good. I had less that 1/4 a cups worth. Internet is telling me that thats only 55 calories but Im going to call it 100 because it was so freaking good. I also went to Chick fil a and got my co workers lunch. I got myself a half diet half real dr. Pepper. I dont think ill drink most of it so we will call it 25 cals. We shall start the no carb thing tomorrow! 495 for the day. I quit until dinner!

For dinner and leading up to dinner because we didnt eat dinner until 9.

100 calorie bag of cheetos

one small and flat cinomin role that our friend brought for homegroup. So good, but small so Im thinking it was about 50 cals (about the size of a packaged chocolate chip cookie)

A Chick Fil A kids meal...SO WORTH IT! 480 plus some of Johns sandwich because he didnt want anymore and I was still hungry. Im calling that 100 calories and then I had sauce. BBQ and Honey Roasted BBQ. We will call that 100. BIG DINNER...so dissapointed in myself, but the scale read half a pound lower this morning so I am a happy lady.

Total for the day...drum role please....1325..not horrible

Day 15

Today I have had an apple 60 calories

coffe with half real cream/ fat free cream 60 cals because I didn't drink it all

and right now I am eating carrots, cucumbers and a dressing that I made last night thanks to Brenna's gift that she gave me!!! I'm going to call this (with the dressing) about 100 calories. might be less, might be a bit more, but you cant get healthier than this!

So my day was going well until I ate a piece of chocolate cake. Sad. One of my favorite volunteers was leaving us today so we had cake to say goodbye. I had a small piece but looked it up and think it was around 280 calories. SAD! What a waste!

That brings my total to 500 calories. I'm done till dinner. Woe is me.

Tonight I had half a chicken breast that i fried in a skillet with EVOO and bread crumbs over whole wheat pasta and fresh tomatoes. Im going to say it was about 600 calories.

After that, I was starving, so I had string cheese 60 calories and then I had a 100 calorie cookie pack. I then went and walk/ran 3 miles at 9 because I skipped out on Pilates (I was feeling sick and light headed) After I finished working out I ate about 75 calories in snack mix that Casey made. YUMMO!

Total of 1335 minus about 220 for my exercise. 1115 for the day!!!

Day 14

Day 14 is proving to be a healthier day.
I have had an apple. 60 calories
a little bit of coffee with half real creamer and half fat free creamer and then I only drank half of it. 35 calories
Then I had cucumbers, tuna, and carrots. YUCK, but still healthy. 100 calories (if that)

So, its 1:17 and I have only had 195 calories, but have eaten quite a lot.

To jill, mixing half fat free and half real is a great idea! It tastes almost the same. It really doesnt save that many calories, but its good. 1 tablespoon of fat free is 25 cals and one real is 45 cals. I think its going to help me get used to the taste of the fat free though.

For the rest of the day I had 2 hershy kisses and a bag of 100 calorie doritos. Then I went to PARADISE!!! and had a chocolate chip cookie, an asian chicken salad, and a half turkey sandwich with bacon on a croissant with mayo and ranch. dont worry. I counted in these calories for the day and ended with 1275 calories for the day. SOrry I havent been posting pics. I went to a coupon clipping class last night and got home late!

Day 13

We went to church and then headed to Freebirds. I had the chicken Ranchero salad...soo good. Im giving it 500 calories. I also had a dr. pepper/diet dr. pepper drink for about 75 calories. I then came home and screwed it up. I had a big bowel of icecream! YUM. Then for dinner we went to the HARD8 SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Good and I had a bbq sandwich and banana pudding. anyone who has been there, knows that you cant not have the banana pudding. It added up trust me.

Day 12

Day 12...hmmm. that was a Saturday...hmmmm It didnt go well. As I recall, it started out well. We went to volunteer at cornerstone church in downtown Dallas where I ate half a pb&J and then an apple. Then, I had these two candy things at my parents...soo good...chocolate,peanut butter, and pretzels. YUMM! Then I went to a wedding shower and had some healthy looking chips with this delicious dip and a petifore (prob like 200 calories on its own!). After that, I blew it. I had some cold pasta salad at my parents house and then went to Jasons Deli with my parents and had a ranchero wrap. I gave almost all of my chips away, but then had frozen yogurt. The next morning the scale said I had upped my weight 1 1/2 lbs. So, that was Saturday. Sunday looked a lot like Saturday!

Day 11

So today I went to lunch with Erin and Grandma and Ryann Cate. We went to Celebrity Bakery. I got a delicious salad. It had greens, carrots, dried raspberries, pecans, and I dipped my fork in honey mustard. I had a small Dr. Pepper with it. Im calling it 500 calories total because I dont think the salad had many calories at all. I then had a tiny bit of a chocolate shake..only a little. I threw the rest away. Im calling that 75 calories and then, sad to say for dinner, I had Wendys Spicy Chicken sandwich, small fries, and a "small" Dr. Pepper. After I took off part of the bun, that brought my total for dinner to 900..such a waste.

Total for today: 1475

I might go work out. Still not sure. John is at a concert, and Im currently enjoying looking at food network and watching Under the Tuscan Sun...we shall see.

Day 10

So, how do you lose weight quickly? You puke your guts out from food poisoning. That's what I hoped was happening to me last night, but instead of puking, I was just nauseous from 5am till now. No puking, which I guess was God answering my prayer because every time I sat down by that toilet and prepared myself, I said, "Please God no. Please God no." and He answered my prayers because I didn't throw up once. I do think he was punishing me however, for eating that hamburger yesterday. Its the only thing I can think of that would have given me a mild case of food poisoning.

Anyway, so no sudden weight loss but that's ok:) I have 29 days to get food poisoning again:)

So far today, I have had coffee with 90 calories of coffee creamer. Don't judge me. Its the only thing that sounded really good to me after being sick all night. I have also been drinking my water. Charlotte, one of my favorite volunteers here at the pregnancy center is coming today and she always brings Kolaches. I plan on eating them. I will sacrifice by eating an apple for lunch.

That's all for now. John's best friend's wife is in labor so pray for safety for the baby and her if you think about it! Yay TA and Katherine!!!!

Ok so I had two Koloches but I spread them out and just had my second one. (its 1:20) The first one was 160 calories, but the second one I tore most of the bread off of, so Im calling it 140 cals. So far for the day I have had 390 calories. Im going to have an apple here in a little bit. Fun fun.

Its 3:00 and I had to go buy some water, so I stopped by McDonalds and got a four peice chicken nugget. Its 190 calories. That puts me at 580.

OK so I had a hershey kiss before I left work. Thats 26 calories.

Then I went to Randy and Allisons and Allison made me AWESOME Tilapia and Green beans with whole wheat toast. We'll call it 450 cals. For dessert when I got home I had..... a bowel of icecream. I KNOW I KNOW. I gave into temptation. We will say that was 500 cals. That brings me to 1556 I think. I didnt work out. But Im ok with tonight. The end.

Food Diary Day 9

So so far this morning I have had 2/3 a cup of cheerios and some water. I am about to go get some coffee and have some cream with it. Although, I am not smelling the coffee which makes me think I forgot to press the start button. Maybe there wont be any coffee after all.

Coffee 20 cals..got cold and I didnt drink most of it

Cereal 110 cals

apple 60 cals

Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger 310 cals

Side salad with a little cheese and some fat free dressing 125

afternoon coffee 45 cals

small baked potato with 4 oz of grilled chicken and salsa 410 cals

10 cheezits 75 cals

Thats 1155 for the day and I did 150 calories at the gym and then walk/ran for about 17 minutes which is prob about 75 calories thats 930 for the day. Not bad. I took pics of everything but really dont want to deal with putting them all on tonight. We had homegroup and its late and I'm tired.

Back In The Saddle Again!! Day 8

Today is a new day, and today I got on the scale. I lost four pounds last week (water weight i know) and I gained them all back this weekend. Fun! So today I am starting over. Today is a new day. Today I can conquer the world. Today I am a new woman. Today, all things are possible. Today I have a positive attitude. Today, I slept past my alarm clock and did not work out. Today I can barely open my eyes and I have a headache, but today I am not going to be upset by that because today, when I get home, I am going to go workout! In the great words of Whitney Houston "I aint braggin cause Im the one. Just ask me ooh, and it shall be done, and dont bother to compare. I got it. Im every woman, Its all in me!"...just looked up these lyrics. Ridiculous song...ridiculous.



I had oatmeal for breakfast. YUCK 100 calories and I am now drinking half a cup of coffee and trying not to have any cream in it. I put in one tablespoon so thats 45 calories. 1 bottle of water down, 5 more to go.


Its 12:30 and I have now had a half of a veggie sandwich that consisted of one slice of whole wheat bread, lettuce, cucumbers, carrots, mayo, and one slice of swiss cheese. about 180 calories!!! (not worth it!)I have also had two more bottles of water which means 3 more to go for the day!


Its 2:30 and I just had a lean cuisine. I was hungry. 250 calories because I didnt eat the chicken. Thats 575 for the day so far. Not good!


Its 5:12 and I am currently eating a bag of 100 calorie baked cheetos. They are fabulous and Im going to make them last until 5:30. Then Im going home to walk the dogs and prepare dinner. Im thinking grilled chicken breast, broccoli, and something else. We shall see.


For dinner I had spanish rice, broccoli, and grilled chicken with some ketchup. Im giving it 400 calories but I think it was less because that is a salad plat...a big salad plate, but a salad plate none the less and its mostly broccoli on the plate. Very small piece of chicken and not much rice at all.



For dessert I had a 100 calorie cookie packet and then later tonight I had a frozen ice thing for 60 calories. That brings me to a total of 1235 for the day. BUT I went to the gym with my friend and did weights...because we were switching off and on it was prob only for a grand total of 15 minutes, but 15 minutes of constant weight lifting aint bad. Then I went and speed walked for 45 minutes. Total calories burned for that is about 350. Thats 885 for the day. Not bad!!!

Day 7

Still part of the weekend. I dont really want to talk about it.

Day 6

hmmm so Im thinking holiday weekends are just hard to eat right. I had a waffle for breakfast, half a ranchero wrap for lunch, a subway turkey sandwich, a bag of chips, and a LOT of cookies for dinner. I didnt even bother counting the calories. We can just call this weekend a big failure!

My Guatemalan babies! 09

Food Diary Day 5

Ok so today I didnt take any pictures...Its hard to do on the weekends. Crazy day. Today I had two blueberry waffles with a TINY bit of syrup. 90 calories each. Brings me to 180 plus 20 for syrup. Then I had an apple 50? calories and two packages of 100 calorie cookies and chips...so healthy. That brings me to 450 calories. I then went to ON the Border and blew it. I ate one cheese enchilada and a small bowel of tortilla soup. I also had Dr. Pepper and chips and tortillas and butter....etc. I failed!!! But tomorrow is a new day and I will get back on the diet horse and ride again!

Day 6 is a new day!!! Until then enjoy this next post of my Guatemalan sweeties!

Day 4 Food Diary

So I have decided that Im going to give myself one day week to not count calories. This would be day 4 because it was Friday and I went out for Mexican:)

Food Diary Day 3

IM HUNGRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ive had 585 calories and im freaking starving.

Food today so far

Cereal and soy milk (not that good) 140
Coffee and soy milk (Blah!) 30
Egg Salad that I stopped eating because it wasnt worth the calories 75
Healthy choice with grilled chicken 240
3 bottles of water 0
100 calorie right bite cookies 100

Going to a movie later so I want to save my calories for Penut M&Ms!

Ok so I went to Baker brothers and got a salad with beans, corn, cheese (not much) tomatoes, chicken (not much) and lettuce. I didnt use very much dressing at all. So Im giving it 500 calories and it was prob less. Then I wen to the movies and got a king size bag of M&Ms and gave at least 1/4 of them away which brings be to about 315 calories.

Total for today: 1400 and I didnt work out. Sad. On another note. I saw Time Traveler's Wife. SOOOOOO GOOOOOOD!!!!! Dont see it if you are a guy because they show Rachel McAdams butt, but if you are a girl I highly recommend it! SO GOOD!

Food Diary Day 2

So, so far today I have eaten:
Honey Nut chereos with skim milk = 130 cals
Coffee with French Vanilla Cream (dont judge) = 80
Healthy Choice Pasta and Chicken..sooo good = 290
Red Apple = 50

Food Diary Day 1

OK friends. Today is day one of my food diary. I can already tell that this will be helpful because today instead of putting French Vanilla Creamer in my coffee, I put splenda and skim milk. So, below you will see pictures of everything that I have eaten for the day. Below that will be the calorie count. Im also going to try to drink 100 oz of water each day. I will be peeing a lot! Below the calorie counting, I will put my exercise for the day! My goal is no more than 1500 calories intake in food and I would like to burn about 400 a day working out.







So far: Coffee with Splenda and skim milk = 15 calories...only drank half of it
Cereal with skim milk = 130 calories
salad with carrots and fat free honey mustard = 100
6 bottles of water = 0 CALORIES!!!!
1 chicken in peanut sauce lean cuisine = 280
1 Turkey Sandwich from Great Outdoors with lettuce/onions/peppers/low fat mayo/vinegar/oil = 450....Didnt eat all of it! Left a little less than half so thats gonna bring it back to about 350 prob less.
