Lunch #1 -- leftover rice and beans Lunch #2 -- corn tortilla with cheese and avocado and salsa Dinner -- onion rings as appetizer ( I need to get my head around "no, we're not kidding ONE PL...

An S day and not a good one. I know I can snack etc on an S day, partly to avoid the feelings of deprivation which will inevitably sabotage me. And last weekend I managed to loosen up a bit without feeling binge-y. Today felt binge-y. Not that I ate so so much - but there is a sense of rushing throu...

Breakfast: perfectly scrumptious huevos rancheros -- two corn tortillas, pinto beans cooked with chipotle hot sauce, two fried eggs, and salsa. Mighty fine. Also four strips of veg fake bacon and a small juice with my vitamins. Definitely worth taking the time to prepare the huevos rancheros! Lunch:...

Luddites were 19th century workers who destroyed textile machines which they felt would be threats to their jobs. Now used to refer to folks who are in opposition to technology. Some folks become "luddites" on weekends or even one day a week, trying to avoid technology -- ie not logging onto the com...

Breakfast: oatbran, protein/green drink Lunch: amy's frozen rice/tofu bowl (not bad, and 260 calories Dinner: out to the 99. Not very hungry. Cup of chowder, and fish and chips -- ate most of the fish, some tartar sauce, only a few fries, that was all. Still not very hungry. There is an element of e...

Breakfast: scrambled eggs, bagel with cream cheese Lunch #1: tuna wrap and salad Lunch #2 at the airport: small pizza and a handful of raw almonds Dinner at home: PB&J, milk Not a great day - within the letter of the "no-s" law, but I'm not happy about how many calories were included in breakfast an...

breakfast: eggs and oatmeal
lunch: gardenburger and salad
dinner at the hotel: salad, shrimp cocktail, crab cakes. Bread and butter. (following no-s faithfully... but on this business trip I am definitely adding some "usually do not eat" things like bread and butter with meals)

15 minutes on hotel treadmill early this morning - but my knee really hated it. I do better on the elliptical at home. But enough to put an E in today's subject line. Breakfast at work: oatmeal and breakfast burrito (because I know that I need some protein or I will be ravenous by 10AM -- at home I ...

No go on the exercise this morning - did not get up in time. Spent 15 minutes on treadmill yesterday - not much, but at least *something.* Breakfast at the hotel: scrambled eggs, fruit, biscuit, hash browns. (I found my way to work this morning -- first time at this site. I know how to find the cafe...

The rules really do help. I went to a grocery store yesterday, and realized just how many calories I've been taking in on those trips.... samples, a cup of soup, a container of smoked mussels, a container of veg sushi. There were lots of samples available yesterday, and I walked by each and every on...

My first S day, and I actually made a point of eating a bit more - I like the logic of eating more calories on weekend as a way to keep my metabolism stoked and my feelings of deprivation under control, even if it slows my weight loss a bit. Breakfast - out for breakfast. Veggie cheese omelet, hash ...

Actually entering this on the 15th... note to self -- important to do this every day! Probably best to open the report after breakfast and then just update. Thursday and Friday went mostly according to plan Usual breakfast -- oatbran, protein drink Two lunch strategy continues to work Dinner -- Frid...

Usual breakfast -- oatbran, protein drink Usual two smallish lunches -- stewed tomatoes with boca (veg) sausage, and later a sandwich with some lowfat chips Dinner - green beans, pasta/pesto (I find it helpful to put a large serving of green beans in the bowl *before* I top with a smaller serving of...

Regular breakfast -- oatbran, protein drink

Two small lunches as planned -- rice and beans, sandwich plus some almonds

Regular dinner -- casserole, broccoli, salad.

Good day. Need to get back on track with exercise!

OK, sign me up. I eat pretty sensibly most of the time - rarely go for seconds, and don't have much of a sweet tooth. BUT -- I work at home, and it's WAY too easy for me to graze during the day. We eat early breakfast, and I know that many days I eat two smaller lunches, one around 11 and the other ...
