6/19 Monitor Monday

[Billie]

Here's a chance to get some feedback on your menu as well as share you great eating tips with others. Just record your menu and on Tuesday we will have a chance to comment and give you some encouragement and helpful tips. (I will be on Chicago on Tuesday so I will be unable to do Feedback Tuesday, so jump in everyone)

Breakfast: 2 eggs, 3 slices freshly-sliced bacon (no regularity of size, there, since I was the one slicing it); scone {similar to last weeks, but with the addition of rice bran and sesame seeds in the mix, and baked flat, so it's more like the size of a slice of bread}; coffee

Lunch: We were out with son and girlfriend, standing in line to pay for his upcoming road test. Time passed, and we ended up going to a Chinese Buffet. Lots of veggies, bit of pork and chicken on skewers, plus a couple of chicken drummettes (wing pieces). Water to drink; no dessert for me.

Snack (6:23 p.m. ;) :( ): Wishing for a meal, but we were delayed by walking/running the dogs and a number of other things, and it isn't ready, so I grabbed a piece of nut/coconut bark I made recently to try to fill the gap while I waited for things to get cooked. Of course, we just put things in the oven (stuffed chicken - the guys just won't drop my stuffing, so I endulge them occasionally). I'll probably have a salad (broccoli, carrots, cabbage mixture, pre-packaged) or something instead of corn on the cob and the stuffing (which has both bread and potatoes in it).

Whether it counts or not - mixed (and drank some of) a replenishment drink (amino acids) to have after the run/walk, as it was very hot, and felt we needed something back in our systems.

Supper: 1/2 small chicken with handful of snowpeas and few grape tomatoes. I think I inhaled it. It was nearly 8:30 by the time we ate. The rest of the family had the stuffing, corn on the cob and potato salad with their chicken. They, obviously, do not follow a low carb plan:crybaby:

Vitamins before bed.

I'm having trouble fitting alot of veggies in, because the ones I really like are giving my newborn baby lots of gas....This will all get figured out, but for now I'm mostly meats and fats...

I could use some encouragement! There's so much going on right now (computer going kablooey a couple of months ago but finally replaced recently, fortunately could borrow a laptop for some of the time but I lost my well-personalized food tracking sheet, kept track by hand for a while but that's not as successful for me --found an older version of the tracking sheet, so can rebuild it--, there was travel a couple of weekends, and my relocation/getting things closed out here have all gone toward increasing the stresses) and the past three weeks I haven't been all that faithful to myself. I've been eating too much, too much of the time. There were few times when it involved a non-PP friendly food, however, so that's good. And I got offtrack with my exercise, so that doesn't help. My relocation is a very good thing, there's just so much to do and until today, my date was just out there. Now I know it will be either the week of August 7 or 14. My boss is retiring in a few months and I had the opportunity to return home (West Texas) and work with the company out there, actually, returning to where I started! My family is still out there, so this is an awesome opportunity. My stepdad is fighting lung cancer and my grandmother is now 98, so this timing is perfect. My boss will move to his new retirement home in TN in late July, then I'll make my move shortly after that and will just continue to help him from afar. His retirement is 9-30-06.

I've got a good day going today, and feel more like myself, so hopefully this tap of the 'resume' button will hold for a good long time.

Anyway, here's today:

#1 - Slim-Fast LC Ready-to-drink chocolate shake
#2 - 3-1/2oz can salmon, 1T mayo, 1T dill pickle relish
#3 - 3oz grilled, blackened chicken breast, 1-3/4c canned green beans, 2T ranch dressing
#4 - Slim-Fast LC Ready-to-drink chocolate shake
#5 - 5oz grilled, blackened chicken breast, 1 LC whole grain tortilla, 1T mayo
#6 - 3 breakfast turkey sausage links, 3 oz chicken breast with a small amount of breading (only blemish on the day)
Throughout the day, 6 tea bags, 2 splenda packets

All supps and CLO down. 2L water today. Won't get exercise in today but will run some errands which can count for a little walking.

I needed to cook tonight but didn't get it done.

Veggies are lacking today.

No snacks, but I know I'll be hungry when I get home late tonite. Maybe a slice of cheese.
