January 5, 2010 - Day 2

Day number 2 and it was good (on the eating front mainly). Well, except for the afternoon... man was I starving as we were shopping around Target. It was all I could do not to pull into the grocery store at a high speed to buy everything in sight, even after subtly hinting to my husband that we needed to buy food. I think he saw through my ploy and said (paraphrasing) "Nah, let's keep going home." Thanks honey! :)

My day:
For breakfast
  • 2 whole-wheat pancakes w/blueberries and a tablespoon of syrup
  • 1/2 cup of coffee w/vanilla creamer

    For lunch
  • 1 bologna and cheese sandwich w/mustard
    * Bread was white (I know, I know...)
    * Cheese was American

  • 5 grapes
  • Water

    For dinner
  • 1 slice of Tofurkey w/chicken gravy (I only had chicken...)
    * We had this in our freezer after getting intrigued by it on Food Network's "Unwrapped." It wasn't bad. In the words of my husband (not paraphrased) "It wasn't the worst thing."

  • A 1/2 cup of stuffing (that came with the Tofurkey)
  • A 1/2 cup of carrots
  • Water

    Snacks
  • A bite of my daughter's banana (that she had decided she was done with)
  • About 5 pretzel sticks
  • 1/2 cup bowl of cheerios with 1% milk
    * This was to satisfy my afternoon melt-down!
  • 1 mocha latte (w/1% milk)

    The following were done randomly throughout the day and mainly because my daughter (21 months) was literally shoving this food in my face! :)
  • A bite of my daughter's string cheese
  • A raisin or two


    Exercise
    Okay I didn't really anything too much today! But I did do...
  • Does raking the yard for about 20 minutes straight count?

      For breakfast, try a small bowl of shredded wheat with fat free milk. Believe me you won't be hungry. I eat that every morning with the exception of Saturday (when I splurge on some bacon and eggs). For a snack last night besides raw carrots and celery I tried some frozen strawberries mixed with fat free cool whip. Pretty good.

      Thanks! Maybe I will try that, although it'll have to be 1% milk as I can't stand fat free milk. :S I'm eliminating night snacks except for night-time coffee. Essentially I'm not eating anything after 8pm.

      I always hated fat free milk when I was younger, but I have no problem now.
