I'd like to say I'm having a good eating day but truth is it's 4pm and I'm at 160 carbs for the day. Not necessarily bad carbs...90% of them are from the fruit I've eaten.
Breakfast - Strawberries, blueberries, a banana
Snack - Grapes, 2 small apples, string cheese (eaten over the course of a few hours, of course)
Lunch - 2 slices whole wheat toast with 1 tblsp LF PB and a drizzle (maybe 1/4 tsp.) of honey
Supper - Not quite sure yet
Puts me at roughly 840 calories, 17g of fat, 164g carbs, 22g of protein. Yikes!
I have all this fruit to eat before it goes bad which explains the enormous consumption increase. I feel pretty bloated now and will try and stick to a light supper. We'll see how that goes!
And just for the heck of it, here's some recent weight stats:
All time low: 169.2 (Dec. 31st 2007)
Last week: 184.9
This morning: 182.3

Day 357
Breakfast - Strawberries, blueberries
Snack - 1 cheese stick, 1 banana, 1 iced soy SF latte
Lunch - Protein bar
Supper - I think we're going out for thai...eek.
Yesterday was a good day. I didn't end up going to the gym though and during the hockey game last night I ate about a cup of pretzels at work. My work had a crappy supper too so I didn't really eat much. I had a tiny bit of salad, a couple of oz of chicken and maybe 1/3 cup of white rice. I got home late with a huge headache and had some frozen yogurt and a couple of roasted baby potatoes leftover from my family's dinner.
So far so good today. I'm at the library and this morning I spent an hour sitting on one of the many terraces having my iced latte. It's so nice to finally have gotten through the rough winter we had. We still have quite a bit of snow on the ground though...it's weird because it's been so hot. It's like we never had a spring, we went straight from winter to summer weather.
Plan for today is simple...no eating unless it's a meal. I only had fruit for breakfast so I was pretty hungry by the time I got to school. I brought the banana and cheese with me and when I was at the coffee shop, I almost got a muffin but my friend gave me 'the look'. Thank goodness too because I didn't need the freaking muffin! I think we're going to this pad-thai place for supper tonight. They do have these non-fried eggrolls which are excellent. I wonder how bad they can be? I'll have to look it up...
I don't know when I'll be able to make it to the gym next. My last final is Saturday and it's a biggie!

Day 356
10 days until my big 1 year surgiversary! It's scary how quickly the past year has gone...where does time go?
I had my first support group meeting yesterday in a long time. I've been working on Sundays lately so hadn't been able to catch one in a while. It really clears my head when I go to these things and today I'm feeling 101% more confident in my eating than I have been.
What I need to do:
- Have a big breakfast which should keep me full for about 4 hours.
- I also need to stretch out my meals because I'm eating them too quickly and getting hungry quickly thereafter.
- Big'ish lunch & smaller suppers.
- Set a cutoff time for eating in the evening.
- Get back to exercising.
- Weigh myself regularly because I've gained weight and I've been in denial about it.
- BLOG MORE.
So...
Breakfast - 1 egg, 1 slice of whole wheat toast with 1/2 tsp. LF PB, 1 new potato with tiny piece of onion, about a cup of fresh fruits.
Lunch - 2 bocconcini balls, 2 roma tomatoes, some onion, some garlic, some EVOO with some form of protein which I have yet to figure out.
Supper - Whatever is made at work
Snack - Whole wheat crackers with cheese? Depends what time of day it is.
Water - Most certainly
Exercise - I sure hope so!

Boo!
I haven't updated in a long while and have gotten e-mails and messages like there's no tomorrow. So, here I am! Reason for not updating: I've just been really, really busy. School is taking up all of my time but the good news is I'm almost done. Classes officially end tomorrow and then all I have left to do is 1 term paper and 3 finals. Finals are the toughest part and just thinking about them makes me sick to my stomach from nervousness.
I had a horrible flu right after Easter and I was stuck in bed for a week. I'm just getting over the cold leftover from that. I didn't think it would ever go away...not cool!
My weight has been stuck since December. I've been bouncing up and down between the same 10 lbs. I can't say that I'm happy about it, but at the same time I'm not unhappy with what I weigh now. It wouldn't be the end of the world if this was it for me. Would I like to lose another 20lbs? Absofrikenlutely. However, maybe that just isn't realistic for me. There is a lot going on in my life right now so things will change.
I move out June 1st. Moving out of the house for the first time...and I'm terrified! Very excited, a little sad, and very nervous. Food is the number 1 issue in my life. Having surgery did not change that. I'll always struggle with making decisions. So not having as much crap in the house will probably do wonders for me...if I don't do the buying of course. I've always secretly resented my parents for buying junk food and making me fat and I've always said that if I lived alone, I wouldn't buy any of it. We shall see!
So that's my update. I'm house-sitting all week and then finals start and end April 26th. Oh and I start a second [full-time] job and summer school April 30th. It just doesn't end!

Day 314
No updates in a couple of days, oops! I had a busy weekend and we got dumped on by snow big time Saturday. They still haven't cleared the snow and they say it won't be done until the end of the week!
Eating-wise I didn't do too well this weekend. I was crabby, tired and just reaching for convenient food rather than cooking my own healthy stuff. Today is going well although the world seems to be handing me carbs. I had 1/2 a bagel for breakfast and tonight's dinner at the club was penne with meat sauce. I don't know whether my coffee shop screwed up my latte or what this morning but I'm thinking maybe she put in regular syrup instead of SF. I felt awful after it and still feel a bit queasy now. What sucks is that I left my gym bag at the gym because I didn't feel like lugging it around all day...so now I have to go all the way back there after work and pick it up before heading home.
Breakfast - 1/2 cinnamon/raisin bagel with a tiny bit of butter, 2 protein balls (right before gym)
Snack - Latte
Lunch - SB protein bar
Supper - 1 cup penne with meat sauce
Snack - Maybe protein pretzels, maybe SF pudding?
Aaaaand burnt 600 calories at the gym this morning, and got 2L of water in, yay!

Day 310 pt. 2
I haven't had a 2-parter day in a while! I just got back from the gym and it was amazing. I was going to do a 20-20-20 class but I got there early and decided to restart my C25K program. It went great and I spent an extra 15 minutes on the treadmill walking. I also did about 10 minutes of elliptical and I thought my legs are going to fall off afterwards they were shaking so much. Tomorrow morning I'm going a bootcamp class. Should be a blast!
Eating today is going super. I edited my journal down below in part 1!

Day 310
After a nice long chat with one of my best WLS buds last night, I've decided that I need to become obsessed with calories tracking once again. Last fall it came to the point where I just refused to eat something I didn't have complete nutritional info on. It was making me crazy and I decided to stop my food journal because I wasn't eating enough and I didn't feel that I needed to worry about a few extra calories here and there. That was then! I need to seriously crackdown on this night time behaviour if it kills me.
I've mentioned it on here several times over the past couple of months and lately I've talked about it openly to my friends and family. I do fine all day long. I have no (almost) problem pushing food away, making healthy balanced meals, keep snacks reasonable and small...but once 9-10-11pm comes around, all that work goes to waste. It's like a completely lose control and just binge on anything I can pick up. It's completely self-destructive, almost completely unconscious and most of all, totally sick. Worst part is, I've probably followed this pattern of behaviour my entire life and never noticed it until now. It scares the crap out of me that I can't seem to stop this from happening night after night. And no, sipping on water won't do anything, neither will sucking on a SF popsicle. The past 2 nights I've had fruit late at night and my scale magically dropped almost 3 lbs. Good sign!
So here it is, my food intake of the day:
Breakfast - 1/2 cup berries, 1 package McCann's SF maple cinnamon oatmeal
Lunch - Detour protein bar
Supper - 1 cup left-over stir-fry from last night. My mom mixed the noodles with the veggies and chicken and I picked as much out of it as I could.
Snack - Cantaloupe, and/or latte, maybe a yogurt if I really need to eat something. I got back from the gym pretty late, so no eating after 9pm.
I'm going to the gym now - yay!!!! I'm so excited. I've been counting down the days since November!
Weight this morning: 177.8 [lowest weight recorded was 169.2 on Dec. 31st]

Day 309
I declared today a snow day for myself! The weather has been so awful this winter, I just don't understand where all this snow is coming from! I'm gonna try and take pics soon because the snow on our front lawn goes right up to the leafy part of our big tree! I kept waking up because of the wind and freezing rain so I was in no mood to haul my butt downtown this morning. That's a good excuse, right? I thought so too!
I decided to skip my regular morning protein shake to see if maybe my protein powder is causing the deadly gas I've experienced on and off for like 2 months now. I figured that I may be lactose intolerant and have switched to lactose-free skim milk since. It certainly helped my problem...but it hasn't gone away yet. I thought I was going to die the last night I had a shake with regular skim milk so maybe I'll ask for tests when I see my doctor next. So...no protein shake for the next couple of morning. As yummy as they are, they're actually really calorie packed (260 calories, 2g of fat, 26 carbs, 35g of protein) so cutting them out may even be a good thing.
Breakfast - 3/4 cup Special K 'Satisfaction', 1/2 cup LF skim milk
Lunch - Tomato, feta, onion, green pepper salad with balsamic & olive oil. Along with 1 egg, 1/2tsp spinach pesto, couple of tablespoons of parmesan cheese. Big lunch, yes!
Snack - Probably cantaloupe and berries
Supper - Apparently stir-fry!
Snack - I'll just focus on not eating after 8pm.
I'm gonna bravely plug this stuff into fitday and see what comes out...

Day 307
I'm at work, there's no kids, and mid-terms are finally done and over with so I figured I'd give a boring update!
This morning I had my appointment with the nutritionist at the hospital. I made this appointment back in early January and have been counting down the days because I was looking really forward to learning more about food...I even took the time to print out my fitday logs. I got to the hospital (anyone in Montreal knows that getting and parking at the Royal Vic is a pain in the butt) and waited for the nutritionist. I waited about 20 minutes and decided to go up to Dr. Christou's office and ask to have her paged. She didn't answer her page and we then called her desk...no answer. So I guess she forgot. I had a mid-term at 1, so I had to leave, pay my $10 parking and hope that she calls to re-schedule. Soon.
Oh and I spoke to the nurse coordinator about getting psychological help and he said "Call me tomorrow, today isn't a good day". Alrighty, then.
I was kind of irritated, definitely disappointed in the after-care I've received. I mean I understand how busy it is...but still.
I also brought my dad's application in this morning. I'm so worried for my dad though. I don't feel like he's exhausted all of his options and I really do worry that he thinks this surgery will cure all. I've made this whole process look pretty darn easy and I think I've almost tried convincing him not to go for it right away because he doesn't seem to get it. Will it be the best for him? Definietely, maybe. He's 52, hypertensive, diabetic, has bad sleep apnea...I just don't think he knows how much work is actually involved.
I've had a rough few days eating-wise. Today is going good so far but everyday is great until 10pm or so when I willingly mess it up by binging. I went to the gym on Friday and played squash and my own gym membership (complementary of the gym I work at) begins this Thursday, finally! Maybe it'll re-motivate me and certainly keep me busier than I already am. Spare time, what? What's that?

Day 300
Just a quick post since I'm leaving work in a few. I have a headache and so much studying to do tonight. It's going to be a long week I can tell.
I had a pretty good eating day yesterday so needless to say I was very surprised to see a 3 lbs gain this morning! It better be water weight. I did have a heavy supper, but I was so proud of it. I ended up getting a great big bag of baby spinach at Costco. I made some spinach pesto with it and had that with ricotta over whole wheat penne for supper. It was so yummy and filling. I know what you may be thinking - the pasta. I'd been craving pasta and had 3/4 of a cup at most. The sauce came out really rich and creamy though. I also found these Wasabi Peas at Costco. I may have had too many. They had such a unique taste, I couldn't figure out if I liked them or not! I also had lots of blueberries last night. Maybe I did overdo it last night...but I'm certainly making up for it today!
Breakfast - Protein shake, the usual
Snacks/Lunch - 2 protein bars: 1 atkins, 1 south beach + a SF soy latte
Supper - 2 chicken thighs (at least I think they were thighs?), 1/4 cup mashed potatoes, 3 bites of salad...seems like a lot but I ate this at work and had a 30 minute break in the middle.
Snack - Lots of studying to do tonight, doubt I'll get any sleep...will probably have coffee, blueberries, or maybe a couple of oatmeal cookies, maybe yogurt or a SF pudding. I haven't decided yet but I'm going to have to stay out of the kitchen and limit my snacks.
I get to use my free gym membership starting next Thursday, yay!

Day 299
Back home and back on track! Surprisingly, I managed to lose about 2lbs in Florida. I shouldn't say surprisingly because I knew I'd be able to eat a lot better staying at my grandparent's place than at home. It was hard though...and once again I acknowledge that I need help, but nighttime was difficult! I would actually sneak small handfuls of peanuts while my grandparents left the room. Almost completely unaware of it too. It's incredible these habits we get into when we're fat!
Yesterday was a long day because my flight ended up being delayed about half an hour and because of the weather, my grandparents dropped me off at the airport really early. And the entertainment on the flight wasn't working so I literally sat there for 3 hours doing nothing. I had some nuts with me, and my pretzels, and I had a protein bar while waiting at the airport because they don't feed you on these flights anymore.
That's about it for the updating. Eating this morning is going well. I had a protein shake this morning with frozen melon, peaches, strawberries, and grapes...very yummy! Then I had an orange. I'm going grocery shopping with my dad so hopefully I'll be able to stock up on some things for the week. Before I left I had prepared and frozen a bunch of veggies knowing they'd go bad if I didn't, so that'll be nice to fall back on. Good thing because I've got 3 mid-terms this week, yikes!
I promised pictures...but since I was on vacation by myself for the most-part, they all kind of suck.
Breakfast - Protein shake (lactose-free skim milk, frozen fruit, vanilla protein powder), an orange
Lunch - Maybe some edamame and a boca burger
Snack - Probably a latte
Supper - Not sure yet but I have a big container of FF ricotta that expires this week!
Snack - Yogurt? Another orange?

Yet another one
Not much to report - I've been having a nice relaxing time. Doing some more shopping. Shopping, yes. I officially had to buy a second suitcase today because there was no way I'd fit all my new stuff in the suitcase I took with me. I've got 14 new shirts, 3 pairs of pants, 5 pairs of shoes, a dress, a swimsuit, a cover-up, a gym bag. I'm sure I'm forgetting some! Crazy shopping deals here folks! My grandparents bought a lot for me and I'm very thankful! I'm also taking home lots of protein bars and that delicious Special K protein cereal.
Tomorrow's my last full day and I intend to do nothing but hang around the pool...maybe go to the beach if the weather cooperates, it's been touch-and-go in the last couple of days.
More this weekend!

Another update from Florida!
Lissa - I am in Tampa! My grandparent's place is on Treasure Island. It was suppose to be a nasty day today, rain and thundershowers but it's been beautiful since about 10am!
I had a small health scare yesterday. I've had it happen to me a couple of times at home, but it usually goes away quickly and it's no big deal. I woke up with sharp pains about an inch or so above my highest incision, or 5-6" above my belly button. I don't know how to describe them aside from sharp pains which prevented me from taking really deep breaths, and stretching my abdomen too much. It was worse when I stood up but I still felt it when sitting/curling up. Finally about 2pm (nearly 6hrs after the pains started) I decided to go to the hospital to have it checked out...and as I was on the phone with my insurance people, the pain went away completely. I suppose it could have been gas, but I think it was too high up for gas...that's most likely what it was. I'll speak to my doctor about it when I get back home.
I've bought wayyyy too much since getting here and I have no freaking idea where to pack any f it for when it's time to go home. Worst part is - I'm only just getting started on the shopping! Oy..
Anyhoo, off to the pool!
I had a small health scare yesterday. I've had it happen to me a couple of times at home, but it usually goes away quickly and it's no big deal. I woke up with sharp pains about an inch or so above my highest incision, or 5-6" above my belly button. I don't know how to describe them aside from sharp pains which prevented me from taking really deep breaths, and stretching my abdomen too much.

Florida Day!
I'm officially in the sunshine state! I arrived last night after a long day of travel (which included being bumped up to first class from Montreal-Toronto). This was my second time flying (flew to NYC in late August) and like the last night, it was such a comfortable flight. I was even brave enough to go to the washroom on the plane which I was still afraid of last August. I did fit, yay!
As for eating on this big eventful day, I had some honey-mustard pretzel sticks on the first flight (was something like 80 calories, 2g of fat...nothing very filling or nutritious) and then I had my grapes which I brought from home. During my wait at the airport I had a large soy latte, 1/2 a 12-grain bagel, 1/2 chicken patty, and 2 slices of bacon. I must have eaten it too fast because I got some major foamies which I rarely get at all anymore. On the second flight I had my oatmeal cookies and soy crisps...and once I was settled at my grandparent's place I had some broccoli and a bit of shepard's pie.
This morning I woke up to amazing weather! It was almost 80 I think (no idea what that is in metric...but it was quite nice!). We went to do some outlet shopping and I got a bathing suit cover-up thing (size medium), a really cute dress (size 8), and 3 pairs of shoes. Shoes are my weakness! And tomorrow we're hitting flea markets I'm told.
The best shopping of all of course was grocery shopping. Grocery shopping in the States is so, so, so different. I picked up 4 containers of fage (which I learned today is pronounced fa-yeh, and not fad-ge), some genisoy soy nuts, some SB protein bars, some kozy shack puddings (they were 2/4$, when I paid 1 for 4.99 at home!), some Special k protein cereal, lots of fresh fruit. Some other stuff too but man I can't wait to have some of it!
Eating here is awesome too since my grandparents don't buy junk food. I used to hate visiting when I was a kid for that very reason. No sugar, no candy, no white bread. They have been indulging a bit more lately...but they're no where near as bad as my parents.
Breakfast - Special K vanilla & almonds, with my lactose-free skim, coffee
Lunch - Whole grain crackers, garlic cheese, some ham, other cheese, a peach.
Snack - Cinnamon raisin SB protein bar
Supper - Appleby's oriental chicken salad (the half-order, no worries) and ate about 3/4 of it with 3/4 of the dressing, with 1 onion ring, and 1 hershey's kiss.
Snack - I'm definitely going to be trying some of my fage yogurt with splenda and/or a peach.
That's that.

Day 285
Another quickie from me! I'm actually in a hotel room (or suite, I should say) until Tuesday. My dad has his annual sales meetings until then and I decided to stay with him since I have school and work nearby. Saves me a good hour + each way of transit. Plus staying in hotels is always fun!
It's very quiet since my dad's in meetings all day and I've been able to get a lot of work done and not eat without reason (because the weather is really crappy and I don't feel like walking to get food, ha!).
I'm sure I'll blog again before I leave on Thursday morning. I'm bringing my laptop with me to Florida and I have a 4-hour layover in Toronto so you will be hearing from me!

Day 283
I'm alive! Sorry for the lack of posts in 2008. I'm really, really, busy and January was a tough month with eating and all but it's going better. I'm spending all of my time either at school, at work, or studying at the library. It's crazy how time flies - mid-terms are next week already! And I leave for Florida next Thursday. It'll be a nice break away from things.
Now for the juicy details. Eating. I've confessed on here and to many people now these self-destructive, spontaneous and uncontrolled bouts of binging I've been dealing with...and I'm sure I dealt with this my whole life and never noticed it before now. I am dealing with it to the best of my ability until I can get the help I need to deal with it. In the past few days I've been able to make some really good decisions and stay more or less clear of danger. I think going away on vacation for 10 days will help enormously just to clear my head. I'll be staying at my grandparent's condo and they don't keep junk food or have nasty eating habits at all!
Anyhoo, I'm off to do some more studying!

Day 273
Good news: The nutritionist from the hospital finally called me this morning
Bad news: She can't meet with me until March 3rd! That seems an eternity away.
I haven't spoken to the psychologist yet but that's just because my cell phone is out of minutes for the month and I'm never home to use the home phone. I need go be evaluated first to see if I can get it covered by medicare.
Eating is still pretty shitty. I'm binging in the evening and this is why I need the help that I do. I really think it's more than a question of keeping busy. It's like I'm relapsing into this sick food addiction I have.
Yesterday I ran out of lactose-free milk and figured I'd mix the rest of it with about 1/2-2/4 cup of regular skim milk for my protein shake. Within half an hour I thought I was going to DIE. Killer gas cramps...the whole deal. Note to self: No more dairy!
Food today:
Breakfast - Protein shake (I need to buy more frozen melon, I'm getting sick of the berries)
Snack/Lunch - 2 clementines, large SF soy latte, Oh Yeah protein wafers (keeping the wafers for when I'm in class tonight)
Supper - Meeting a friend for supper...no idea where!
Without supper, I'm at just over 600 calories, 24g of fat, 67g carbs and 54g protein. I can't wait to meet with the NUT and see what she has to say. Let the countdown begin!

Day 271?
Not sure what day of my post-op life it is, too sleepy to care! I have not had the best past few days.
Friday night, went to the movies, my friends had ice cream and I had nothing. I wasn't hungry and was completely okay with having nothing....but after the movies we decided to go to this crazy cake place. I knew I couldn't have cake, but I did end up having half a banana martini and half an oriental chicken wrap...left maybe 1/3 of the tortilla.
Saturday was a long one at work, I was just hungry and grazing all day. First with the peanuts, then with the protein pretzels, then with the crackers. Supper was steak and salad and potatoes. I didn't have a lot of the potatoes...but still had more food than I should have.
And Sunday...oh freaking Sunday! I was late for work so skipped my protein shake. I had protein cereal in the car, go to work and the kitchen was closed, so I had no lunch or supper. I had 3 slices (not all at once, obviously) of whole wheat toast and lots of pickles and olives. I even ate the snacks I brought with me, protein wafers and SF cookies.
Nothing seems to satisfy me anymore. I miss the feeling of complete fullness I had those first few months.
Breakfast - Protein shake
Lunch - Salted soy nuts (1/3 of a cup maybe?)
Supper - 1 slice whole wheat toast, 1/2-3/4 cup of cream of veggie soup, protein wafers, some more soy nuts
Snack - SF pudding? yogurt? cottage cheese pancakes? Who knows.
I'm so sleepy, how is it Monday again already?

Day 269
I know, I know, no posting for a couple of days. I've just been super crammed between work and school. Seems like I blink and it's Friday. I had my first all-nighter of the semester last night and I'm absolutely pooped.
Eating is going well - I cleaned up all of my healthy groceries and labeled it. Now my family has no excuse to take any of it. Nothing more frustrating than coming home to find all my staple post-op foods are gone! I haven't weighed myself since Tuesday and I'm petrified to. I cannot handle any more disappointment.
I'm off to nap for a couple of hours before my movie tonight!
Breakfast - Oh Yeah protein wafers (210 calories and only 14g of protein, ouch!)
Lunch - I was cleaning out the fridge and cupboards so I didn't have a lunch per se but I did have 1.5-2 small cottage cheese pancakes, 3 SF shortbreak cookies, a tiny handful of almonds (maybe 10-11 of them at most)
Snack - 1/2-3/4 cup yogurt with 2 tblsp. semi-sweet chocolate chips
Supper - 1/2-3/4 cup kraft dinner, 1/2 sausage and 3 bites of mashes sweet potato...which all came back up. I ate way too fast and paid the price.
Later tonight - Maybe a latte, or just tea, my pouch feels a bit uneasy after those sweet potatoes.
Not too bad, I won't be around tonight to wander around the kitchen so that's good. I'm also going to Costco tomorrow to load up on a few extra things for the week!

Day 266
Another week. Another gain. This one of 1.6. The good news in all of this is that I lost over a pound since yesterday. No more gains!
Breakfast - Detour bar (before run), Protein shake (with lactose-free skim milk, melon, vanilla powder)
Lunch - 1 small slice from an 8" all dressed pizza (#^$%), 1 pork skewer with 1 tblsp ricotta
Supper - Probably another pork skewer, or maybe just another protein shake!
Snacks - I'm getting 3 giant bottles of new DaVinci flavours tonight, so I will definitely have a latte with my new lactose-free skim milk! Maybe even a rice cake...although at 13g of carbs per piece, I'm not so sure.
Notice I attempted running this morning. I knew it wouldn't be good to run on an empty stomach, but I pretty much gave up halfway through because my head started pounding and I just wasn't feeling it...so I only burned about 120 calories. Better than nothing I suppose!

Day 265, part deux
I'm feeling better, I must admit. I'm sitting at work and there's no kids, so I'm doing homework and updating the blog.
I didn't do my regular protein shake this morning and boy does it make a difference. No gas = no worries. So I guess I'm lactose intolerant! I need to do some research and see how this is going to affect me. I made a bunch of arrangements this week to meet with the nutritionist, psychologist, and my doctor in the near future. I'd like to redo my bloodwork before I leave for vacation in a few weeks. Speaking of which, I also need to renew my passport!
Eating today is going well. I'm paying enormous amounts of attention to my hunger levels and feelings...as corny as it may sound. I had dinner at 5:30 and by 6:30 I was automatically reaching my protein bar. I wasn't even hungry! So instead, I'm sipping on my water and keeping my mind off of food for a change.
Here's what I've eaten today:
Breakfast - 1/2 cup of yogurt, a SFNF latte
Lunch - 1 baby cucumber (great way to temporarily 'fill up'. I sprinkled some salt and chili pepper on mine..weird duo, but yummy), 2 boneless chicken wings (these things have been calling my name since last night, not the best of choice...but I could have eaten 10 of them probably, or not), 1 south beach protein bar (had this on my walk to work)
Supper - 3oz steak (I ate this slowly since my pouch isn't the biggest fan of beef and it was fine), 1/3 cup steamed carrots and zucchini, 1/4 naked baked potato (I saved this for last because of the potential damage to my carb intake).
Snacks - I have my detour bar for later tonight, but may add SF hot chocolate or a SF pudding if I need to.
Totals - 854 calories, 19g of fat, 94g carbs, 75g protein!!!!
Faaaaaantastic :)

Day 265
- Woke up late, no running...at least not until tonight after work, if I'm still up for it.
- Scale read 175 this morning. At this point I'm think I could eat freaking air all week and still manage to gain weight. What the hell is going on???
- I'm skipping my morning protein shake and praying that this horrible gas I've had will go away. I'm thinking lactose intolerance...but then again, cheese and yogurt are not a problem. Hmm.

Day 264 pt. 2
It is 11:40pm and I'm trying to stay out of the kitchen. I decided to clean my room instead of throwing this pretty good eating day out the window. I have edited my food intake of the day in my first day 264 post. I got the 9pm munchies and had 2 boneless buffalo wings and 3 [small] spoonfuls of good ole KD. I had made myself a bowl of it...but threw it out when I realized what the hell I was doing. I had 2 bottles of water instead!
I found some books I would like t0 continue/re-read while cleaning my room tonight:
-Mindless Eating
-Dr. Phil's (meh) 7 keys to weight-loss success
-WLS for Dummies
Anyhoo, just thought I'd update quickly. If I have time tomorrow...I may even go running!!!!
Day 264
I'm having gas issues. There! I said it! I've had the worst gas ever in the past week and cannot figure out what the hell is causing this out of nowhere...and it's so strong, oy. I can't stand the smell of myself and am actually debating whether or not I should go to school tomorrow!
In other news, I had my first support group meeting since October this afternoon. It was so nice to see everyone again! Very motivating and ensuring to hear other people going through the same things as I am.
Time to change rooms again!
Breakfast - Protein shake (frozen strawberries, 1 small banana, skim milk, gourmet whey vanilla)
Lunch - Support group meeting had 3 crackers with cheese, about 3/4 cup of grapes. And then I came home and had 2-3oz of feta cheese, 1/2 thick pita bread and 1 tsp tzatziki. Oh and 1 SF cookie.
Supper - Will probably be 1 cup of chili, 5 crackers. Maybe 1 baby cucumber if I feel like it.
Snack - Tonight will probably have 1 latte, maybe a pudding or yogurt. No unnecessary snacking tonight!!!!

Day 262
Yesterday started great, ended so-so. I got to work and was really wanting food...I couldn't even tell you if I was actually hungry or not. The supper being served was lasagna. Good thing was that I are slowly, and stopped the moment I felt I had had enough. Then I stared at my plate for a few minutes and poured salt on all the leftovers so they wouldn't be touched. I was quite pleased with myself! Around 7pm (just over an hour after super) I started feeling a bit hungry again and had my protein bar. At around 9 I felt it again but this time I had 2 [small] pieces of bread. Fantastic. But wait...it gets better! I then had salted peanuts. About 1/3 of a cup I would say. Oh yes...and I came home and had yogurt. Nighttimes are the worst for out-of-control useless eating. I need to pay more attention and keep busy! Of course I got home just after midnight and was exhausted and probably needed that comforty-food feeling. Now I'm just blabbing...here's what I ate today:
Lunch - 1 cup chili with 5 crackers (my frozen chili from this week...very yummy!!!)
Supper - 3-4 oz of pork tenderloin with steamed veggies (I've never made pork tenderloin by myself before so I hope it turns out good. I've bought a tons of different meat cuts and it's all hanging out in the freezer waiting to be eaten)
Snacks - SF pudding, 1/4 cup almonds and raisins, SFNF latte
I've already had 1/2 of my 1/4 cup almonds and raisins. I'm saving my latte for later tonight and I'm reeeeally going to be keeping on eye on myself later tonight when 9-10pm hits. I'm gonna try keeping myself busy and away from the kitchen. Also, this week I am going to be trying rock climbing. Stay tuned for that!
