Before After

Decisions

I have been thinking about foood a lot--LOL : )  Tatumsmom (sorry I am not computer savvy enough to put in a link) has inspired me to think ahead about meals and since I am going back to work soon I need to know what to eat for lunch.  Dinners aren't such a problem except for portion control.  For lunches I have decided to bake or grill a bunch of chicken breasts on the weekends and then I can have a sandwich with sides of veggies and fruit plus a yogurt or just a heated up breast with some steamed veggies and fruit. Birds Eye makes Steamfresh single serving veggies which would be perfect to take to work with me.  On the days I don't eat chicken I'll take a salad with all kinds of peppers, onions, pea pods, carrots and other fun and colorful stuff but no cheese!!  True confessions--I LOVE CHEESE!!  And yes I did try the Atkins diet.  I lost 30 lbs. and then my husband died and I gave myself permission to eat anything because we all know when people die EVERYTHING SUCKS!  That was ten years ago and I am very happily remarried and everything is great but I am still eating anything I want. 

Still not doing great on food so I won't start listing on EP what I eat each day but I am going to put a before picture and enter my measurements and use the activity log.  I do write all my food for each day in my food/exercise journal so I am taking responsibility for what I put in my mouth.  I'm just too embarassed for anyone else to see what I eat.

I'm with ya!

Hey ~ don't be embarrassed by what you eat...  if you knew what I ate today ~ you'd be feelin' golden about now...      I'm currently on this cheese and bacon kick...  that's my pms-cravings for the month I guess...

I'm trying to figure out how to eat better too;  I hate veges ~ so that makes things difficult for me...  but ya know... you just do the best you can TODAY and try again tomorrow...

and you don't replace the empty ice cream container when it's gone...  (I'm still working on this one...)
