CampCook's CheckIn
Hi! I just started today and am thrilled with what I read in the Woman's World magazine. I'm a cook at a Christian camp, and I have such a hard time sticking with a diet while I'm cooking all the time. But I think this is doable for me.
Today was a wonderful day! I had a bagel and pineapple for breakfast. I was at work for lunch (tuna sandwich, banana, and salad) and dinner (chicken parmagiana, pasta (of which I only had a few bites), and a salad). I even made cookies today and didn't take a bite of batter or eat any of them. Woohoo!!!
Looking forward to this!!

Day 2
Yahoo! I woke up this morning hungry!! It's such a good feeling. I'm not stuffing myself!
Ate breakfast this morning (chicken biscuit and hash browns from McD's along with fresh pineapple) and I'm not snacking at all today. I was amazed yesterday at work to realize how many things I pop into my mouth while I'm cooking. I'm going to be aware today and watch out!!

DAY 3
It is such a wonderful feeling to hear my stomach growl. I was so tempted to eat something last night but I didn't give in. I went up to bed and read and then went to sleep lots earlier than normal! I have been eating so much lately at night. It's nice to just be able to relax and enjoy the evening.
I did eat more than I should have at dinner last night, but I'll work on amounts later as I get accustomed to eating only at meals.
I guess I should do a little more of an introduction. I've been married for 18 years and we have a 14yos and 12yod. Unfortunately my son has picked up my bad habits and is overweight, which is why we're doing this together. DH and DD are both skinny. I didn't start putting on weight until after I got married, and I now have about 60+ pounds I would like to lose. The summer Before hubby and I were married I weighed 135 pounds, which is skinny for 5'8" -- that was pretty low for me as I normally weighed around 145. I'll be satisfied if I can get down to 150-160. I know it's a lifestyle change I need -- one that will last and not a temporary thing.
I'm a full-time cook at a Christian camp, so I'm always around food. It's the desserts that kill me. But you know, I haven't had any desire to eat any cookies or cakes the past few days. It's great!! I'm just going to have to be careful on the S days!
Breakfast this morning was a bagel and pineapple. Lunch will be chicken stir fry (I think) and dinner will be a salad and veggies and maybe some fruit too.
Toodles!
