Monday, and off to a good start with minimal hurdles!
Yes, today is the day -- got the new eating plan all worked out and
definitely sticking to it. And I did, really -- but we ended up at the
in-laws house longer than expected and I was getting rather hungry and
they had a platter of snacks out that everyone was munching on. Well, I
had a handful of roasted, salted peanuts. But I counted them in -- so
while today's calorie count was supposed to come in at about 1500, it's
more like 1630 -- but hey, I'm still good with that. I did well with
the situation only having the handful of peanuts, and it actually did
tide me over so I didn't feel hungry. So here's today's actual menu,
including the peanuts, which made it a bit higher in fat than I'd
planned.
60g Special K with 3/4c lite soy milk
1 medium apple
Bombay potatoes & salad with FF dressing
2 kiwifruits
1 Special K bar
about 36 peanuts
Samosa scramble (1/3 recipe, but no wraps)
1 cup steamed broccoli
1 Soy Life blueberry yogurt

I did get in a half hour walk with the dogs this morning before the
rain started. Tomorrow it's back to work after 2 weeks off. That's
always tough - but I'm actually looking forward to getting back to my
normal daily routine.
