Well the important thing is that you are back on track taking control of the situation. I'm taking it one day at time, every day when I wake up I'm saying to myself "TODAY, I will eat healthy and I will exercise. If I want a day off, that day is TOMORROW not TODAY" And then the next day I say the same thing.

Let me knwo when ya find oneOr maybe you need invent somethign that you can take along with you that will take a picture of the food and spit out a calorie count and everything else for you on the spot Aaawww - well cannon is right at least you stop and restarted before it got to outta controladn you are doign it now and doing great Hee hee hee - tha tis cute
Ya know even when I wanna be bad I cant really be bad anymore...my stupid healthier living mindset takes over...ok well with exceptions to Mcdonalds the other day...and to be honest I order the meal I did because I was pressured and stressed for tiem and couldnt make a decision but that meal was so rare for me...Once we get this down it is hard to shake...which is a good thing...
Ya sometimes whenI get off that bastard thing I have a hard time walking for a few secs...or like last night when I went to goon my walk...my right thigh was having some major issues, lol...it was complaining quite badly....
The coo coo scale I would assume is muscel ???

hey hillbillylee,
I figured I should say hello since I read your journal a bit. It would be rude of me not to at least pop in and say something.
What did you end up eating for breakfast? Or have you eaten yet?

Hey sunny thanks for stopping by. Since I slept so late I started right in with lunch. I had an indian food frozen dinner and that was about 320 calories. That leaves me room for a big dinner. It's till early at 4 pm lol.
I have never had that but it looks really good lol.

Well it's been a long day. I got a job at an environmental contract company. It's decent pay and plenty of hours. The only bad thing is it's a 24hr on call type of thing. It has a full benefits package so it will be good for the family.
The family wants to go out for Chinese food so if I do I'll just have to watch what I eat. I don't know much about the calories in Chinese but since most is a starch base I'm sure they are high. I have room because for brunch was an Indian food frozen dinner at 320 calories and about an hour ago I had a slice of watermelon and I don't think they have alot of calories.
I have to do the whole drug test and physical tomorrow morning. I have to be there at 7:30 am. Man thats gonna be a shock to my system. Thats normally the time I'm just sleeping good.
As far as dinner I really don't want the extra calories of Chinese so we will just see what happens.....

I ended up at a Chinese buffet. I kept my wits about me and only had a small piece of chocolate cake and a chocolate chip cookie. The only calories I had had before that was brunch and a snack which only came to about 420 or so. I know I didn't get out of my maintenance calories so I'm sure it was a good day.
Brunch: Frozen Indian food dinner.
(320 calories)
Dinner: Chinese; I was pretty good. The only bad thing I had was a small piece of chocolate cake and 1 chocolate chip cookie.
Snack: Slice of watermelon.
(100 calories)
Drinks: water, Iced tea.
(0 calories)
Total: 420 calories + dinner so I should be under my maintenance calories.

Don't you dare lol. And in my own defense the piece of chocolate cake was this wide 1---------1 and about this long 1-------------------1 and to keep all the perverts at rest we are talking about chocolate cake lol. I am going to the gym but still kinda full so not sure about the elliptical. I think I'm gonna go and mess with some of the free weights and see how it goes. I'm not having anything else today to eat except maybe some grapes after the gym.
It's strange when you cut out sugar and then eat some; it's almost a sickly sweet. I'm heading out now;I have to go do the pre employment DOT physical in the morning which checks everything under the sun. It's about a 4 hour physical and then I'll be able to start going to the safety classes Monday.
Goodnight all........

Well back from the gym. I did a hard half hour on the elliptical and thats about 595 calories for someone 374 pounds. After that I worked on my biceps, triceps and back extensions. I just didn't have the energy for a bunch. Since I have to get up about 6:30 am I was in a hurry but I wanted to get at least a few calories burned off. I hope everyones night has been going well....
