Here is what yesterday was like.....
breakfast 1/2 c lowfat yogert 240
2 cups coffee w/ skim milk & 2 tsp sugar- the real stuff(not sure how many calories????)
snack apple 80
lunch 1/2 c pinto beans,1/2 c lowfat cottage cheese,3 prunes & carrots 190
snack 1 Nestle push up pop (yum) 90 & worth every bite!
dinner 1/2 cup white rice w/ sweet chilli sauce, 1/2 cup steamed veggies 230
total 830 + the coffee & water with every meal & snack.
So tell me what you think.
I stayed very satisfied. I was not hungary and miserable. My main problem is when I skip breakfast and lunch, then I over eat like a crazy woman!
Well, I have not yet figuired out how to get a ticker so I will tell you...
I started at 235...now I am 233...my short term goal is 190...long term 140
I plan on taking in fewer calories, and exersizing every day. I am not going to deprive myself of food that I love. So, I'll just eat less. I know I won't always have great days, but I am going to take it one day at a time. If I mess up, I'll just keep going. In the past when I mess up, I give up. Not anymore. I am almost 30 and I have 2 kids and a husband who loves me. He has never said anything rude about me gaining all this weight. Not even polite critism. When we were dating I was 135. I am two of those now.
I am doing this for me. I am sick of being tired, slow, grumpy, feeling ugly and wearing clothes I don't like. I have really lost myself and I am going on a exciting journey to get back to me. I already am feeling better.
