EDITED BELOW TO FINISH YESTERDAY'S FOOD!
In addition to trying to hit the gym as much as possible (or other exercise, like biking a lot of miles and what not), and drinking lots and lots of water, I think I will be trying to post here everyday. AND I'm going to post my food! Boring for you? Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps!
But I didn't do it yesterday, so I'll post yesterday's here and today's too!
Monday's food:
Breakfast: egg sandwich, strawberries - 4pts
Lunch: 3/4lb fresh veggies, 2T low fat dip, 1/2c cooked carrots, 1/2c brown rice, 1c mexican fiesta chicken - 8 pts
Snack: broccoli salad, apple - 3pts
Dinner: Tuscan chicken breast, 1/2c corn - 5 pts
Snack: Sugar Free pudding, Kashi cookie - 3 pts
Total - 23pts (about 1377 calories)
Today's food:
Breakfast: E.S., strawberries - 4pts
Snack: 1 mini chocolate meringue, south beach living water - 0 pts
Lunch: Pecan crusted tilapia filet, 1/2c cooked carrots, 3/4lb fresh veggies, 2T lf dip, 3 mini meringues, 1 blueberry fiber cake, 1/2c strawberries - 8 pts
Snack: 1c turkey chili, broccoli salad - 5 pts
Dinner: I went out for Indian food with friends and therefore, had to approximate a lot of these values...
Garlic Naan (1 piece of 6" diameter) - 4pts
Chicken Tikka (about 1/2 to 3/4c of chicken, onions and peppers) - 4pts
A spoonful of chicken tikka masala, saag chicken and tandoori paneer - 3pts
Total for the day: 28pts (this is 5 points over my allowed 23 points for the day, but I had 2 activity points from exercising in the morning and I pulled the remaining three from my weekly flex points - I had 29 left and I reset them on Thursday mornings, so I think I'll be okay there!)
Total - 12pts (about ? calories, I'll have to enter them in SparkPeople later on)

Not so boring. If it will help keep you accountable, go for it.
Just don't forget to keep posting pictures of your puppies now & then!!
Mmmmmm pecan crusted tilapia! That sounds sooooo good! I have been eating crap lately and it shows. *sigh*
Seriously. I can't even begin to remember what I ate for breakfast today, let alone what I had yesterday! Do you write it down as you go or what?!
@squintz22 - I write everything down. Everyday. Everytime. I carry my little journal in my purse - EVERYWHERE. To the grocery store (to write down samples), to work (for lunches) or even out to eat. Otherwise, I would never remember what I ate or know if I had points left over and available! I purchase the 3 month journals from WWs - I'll show it to you when I visit. It's a lot like the quick trackers that I sent you but it allows me to keep them and keep track of what I've eaten for MONTHS.
I'm anal. It's the science background. I also have an excel spreadsheet for daily, weekly and monthly weightloss. The daily one includes a trend in weigh loss graph that has a 10% smooth factored in to help take out the crazy up and downs of daily weigh in, as well as a bar graph of how my weight fluctuates from day to day...I can send you a copy if you want to see what it looks like.
I also plan to start doing better tracking my 0 point beverages (SODA and what not) to see how much I consume per day, per week and to see what I can do to lower that...
