Don't be too hard on yourself bizi, aa is not for everyone and you are addressing this with your T. You are also honest here about how much you've been drinking, that says a lot.

Ate stir fry chicken with spinach and potatoes a simmering sauce packet, indian food stuff. very good.

Ate a bagel for breakfast.

Going downtown to a recruiting event near MIT to recruit people for an internship at my company. I'm hoping to go to my favorite college lunch spot and eat some crispy pad kra pow. (I don't think I'll leave without it! )

I just have to talk to people and collect resumes, so it shouldn't be too difficult. And really, I just have to make marks about who is good.

I am actually looking at dieting myself. I'm hoping that going to the gym would give me some confidence.

[hopeless2015]

I'm going today on my lunch hour to sign up at planet fitness, my friend talked me into going to work out with her, she has worked out for years so she will get me going with a routine. I'm excited about this, but will have to get up at 5:30 am on those days....yikes lol. This will be so good for me physically and mentally.

[Lifeischallenging]

To Hopeless,

Good for you. Thats exactly what I plan on doing as well. I wasn't talked into it since I don't have many friends. Rather, I thought of doing it because I want to lead a healthier lifestyle. Again, good for you.

[bizi]

good for both of you! Planet fitness is great! I have been a member for years although I don't go. Paying $10 a month doesn't hurt like a regular gym if you don't go. Still I should go!!!!

Two lassi drinks, one without sugar and the other with sugar:

- milk and kefir in equal parts
- ground cumin
- lime juice

Also, buckwheat with milk for breakfast, as usual on workdays.

Planet Fitness is where I go too. Gets the job done!

Today so far I had one protein shake in whole milk and a burger with no bun and a few tortilla chips.

I'd love a nap but not gonna get one. Oh well. At the mall about to walk around.

[Unrigged64072835]

Breakfast: oatmeal with strawberries, banana slices and pecans, and a slice of ham
Lunch: Breaded chicken sandwich
Dinner: Baked Garlic Parmesan Chicken and mixed vegetables

Didn't take my blood sugar yet. Will do that before dinner. On the plus side, my husband found out he lost almost 30 pounds. Happy with that.

[bizi]

good going!
salmon for lunch with bok choy and beets and squash.
chipotle for dinner.
bottle of wine.

I lost TWO pounds this week! Yay! I was super strict with carbs all week. Today I had a small fry at McDonald's though. And I'm going to have wine. But I'm not drinking tomorrow and not planning to go off track so it should be fine. Also, I can't remember if I mentioned it already, but I tried on my size 16 jeans that didn't fit two months ago and they fit! That's very exciting. I have about 20 more pounds to get to my first goal. If I'm strict I might be able to get there by summer, and then all my summer clothes will fit and I won't have to buy new ones! Yay!

[Moose72]

I had a protein shake and a bunless cheese burger. I had maybe 5 tortilla chips. They were good and salty!

[bizi]

I am sorry I totally blew my diet today.
started off good with a double grass fed cheese burger with smothered onions mushrooms and pepper jack cheese. no bun. a side of salad with ceasar dressing. But I ordered a fattening beer. then I had a piece of chantilly cake thena piece of pizza and another beer.
sigh
I failed tonight.
This is the weekend before mardi gras so we are celebrating!
had a good time at trivia.

[Naynay99]

Not a great day for me diet wise...
I am going to exercise in the am so hopefully that will help undo the damage a little bit.

I lost almost five pounds! And i got up early two days in a row!

[wildflowerchild25]

Congratulations Jane!

I had a ton of snacks last night because I was drinking but they were all low carb. Drinking tons of water today to flush the water weight from the alcohol.

On a side note I ordered a ravenclaw (Harry Potter) tee shirt last night while I was a little drunk lol. Size men's large, hopefully in a year it will be huge on me!

[Moose72]

I had roast beef and milk for lunch. Coffee with cream and a little sugar before that. I didn't weigh myself today but my jeans are looser because the huge hematomas on my belly are finally shrinking.

[Unrigged64072835]

Breakfast: oatmeal, and sausage
Lunch: ½ a ham sandwich and ½ a PB&J (weird, I know)
Snack: Cheese sticks
Dinner: Favorite Skillet Lasagna (It needed some seasoning; the spaghetti sauce I used was rather bland)

Blood sugar has been good.

[bizi]

all bets are off until ash wednesday then I go on vacation saturday for a week with my family at pompano beach florida.

I am going to try a protein drink tonight. I bought samples at Vitamin Shoppe. I will try banana and strawberries tonight, in my regular smoothie recipe. Thanks for reminding me - I bought them a week or two ago but have not gotten round to trying them!

Lunch: scrambled eggs with shredded cheese. Simply and tasty. Ate it with tomato wedges, so it was a healthy lunch. Also, tea with milk.

[bizi]

I ate a lot today then had brats and tomatoes.. was good.
lots of wine.
oh well this is mardi gras! lots of beads, parades. fun fun fun!

[Unrigged64072835]

Breakfast: Oatmeal and ham at Cracker Barrel
Lunch: PB&J (whole sandwich)
Snack: Cheese sticks and cashews
Dinner: Feta-Tomato Basil Fish and broccoli. I made it with cod so it took a little longer to cook. I also added some extra spices. Very good though.

Blood sugar is at the low end of the normal range. Think it has to do with a stomach bug I might have picked up.

[wildflowerchild25]

I had trouble this weekend. I was on track Saturday until I showed up at my in laws and they had cheesecake and lots of appetizer type snacks. I couldn't resist even though I wasn't drinking. Then today I went to the flower show. I brought an Atkins bar but I wanted to try some dip mixes and they only had pretzel sticks to dip in. So I ate a lot of those. Bought some dip mixes for home to use with cucumbers and cheese chips. And my flax seed crackers. Then I had some sesame chicken at wegman's. I'd say maybe half a cup of chicken and a whole cup of asparagus but still, the chicken is battered and fried and the sauce is full of sugar.

Oh well. I'll get back on tomorrow!
