Hello all!


I'm another newbie. I am determined to get off the yo-yo dieting track and begin exercising daily again. My biggest problem is food temptations (I LOVE to snack) and not making time to exercise. Think I've started out well though:


Yesterday - walked to the grocery store and back, almost three miles (40 min) round trip

Today - walked to a meeting across town and back, almost two miles (25 min) round trip


Food today:


Breakfast = half raisin bagel with butter, glass of juice

Lunch = banana, yogurt, low-fat whole grain crackers with peanut butter, steamed vegees with low fat cheese shreads

Snack = high fiber granola bar


I'll post my dinner later .... hard to eat well and feed the kids something they'll eat!
 
Dinner went well. Fixed a chicken/vegee alfredo meal and only ate just over a cup. Did have a small piece of bread too.



Am in LOVE with sparkling water with a bit of flavoring. Even got the girls (10 and 8) to choose it over soda or juice drinks!
 
AToday has gone well ...

Breakfast - banana, protein bar
Lunch - vegetable soup, cheese and crackers
Snack - small piece cake (party), banana

The plan for dinner is chicken, green beans, and rice

Haven't worked out today .... Doing the single parent thing while significant other is out of town.
 
Welcome to WLF! I hear you about getting off the yoyo. And, love perrier mixed with a little bit of POM (and sometimes a smidgen of vodka ;))


Hope to see you become a consistent poster and loser (in a good way) here. Good luck!
 
Thanks OldSchool! I think the small piece of cake was a catalyst yesterday though .... was starving in late afternoon and had some peanut butter on crackers, then had a chocolate chip cookie last night before bed .... well, it was just one cookie :0)
 
AToday was not too bad .....

Breakfast - 1/2 cinnamon raisen bagel and yogurt
Snack - banana and protein bar
Lunch - chiabatta bread with peanut butter
Snack - crackers
Dinner - pizza (I know, I know ....)
