Day 12

I have been really off about the posting because I have been sick with the stomach flu for a while.  My eating and dieting has been off, as well.   I have hardly had any appetite and when I do, it is for something completey unhealthy.  Luckily, throughout these few days, I have yet to gain anymore weight and I actually lost a pound.  Today, I am almost completely recovered and feeling back on track.  Now, I am down to 157.  Also, my boyfriend and I discussed having a contest to see who can lose 15 pounds first.  He is about 5 9 and weights 186.   The winner gets some cold, hard cash.  I know it will also be a motivator having my boyfriend see what I weigh everyday! I didnt let him see my first weigh in, but I told him I would let him know when I dropped a few more pounds :) Luckily, he trusts me.  This morning for breakfast, I had an energy bar and a bottle of water for about 250 calories.

I already packed my lunch, so I know I will be having a big bowl of homemade vegetable soup for about 200 calories and a turkey wrap for about 300 calories.  That will put me at 750 total for the day.  My boyfriend and I are going out to dinner, so that will leave me with a pretty big calorie allowance for dinner.  I'll probably do some seafood or a salad.  I'll keep you posted :)
