I coulda made something at home, but that's what he wanted. But, I guess it's better than the enchiladas I would normally have ordered. I did eat about 6 chips---usually can eat a whole basket!

Walked.
Didn't wash the car. Just too freakin' hot!
Drank water.
Ran after kid half the day.

Daily goals:

Water.
Find a good cheap gym.
Walk.
Eat healthy.

Did pretty good yesterday. The water thing is still lacking, but will continue to work on it. Linda has helped so much with her suggestions!
Best of all, against my own goal of not weighing yesterday, I did anyway, and I'm down 3 lbs!. I'm thinking I will weigh every day.

Oh, DD!!! you are making progress and this is wonderful. I am still in Bham and not doing very well, sorry to report. The only thing I've managed to do here is to drink my water and eat reasonable portions (though I've eaten everything I shouldn't). no exercise except power shopping. will be home tomorrow, Allifunn will be waiting for me, and I'll ask her to make me salads and fish every day!

So glad you are all continuing with the motivation and progress here! see ya tomorrow... over and out...

I've been horrible lately on the diet front. Gained 5 pounds since the cruise! That's not supposed to happen!
Things have been stressful lately around here, very much, and I've been eating shameless amounts of comfort food. I've also gone to 3 birthday parties in the last two weeks. (Did I mention that I always eat birthday cake when it comes around, regardless? And I'll eat a big piece, in honor of their birthday, of course! ;-))

I'll try to get back on the program.

How was your cruise? Did you have funn?

 

[katie blue]

Oh, I did. It was so great, thanks for asking. I really wasn't expecting to be as impressed as I was, but those Royal Caribbean people have it going on in every way. It was most funn because of the large family group we had--all three generations and everyone smiling. I'm just glad we went the week we did...the same boat, same cruise as ours just had another one of those viral outbreaks, two weeks later. Yipe.

Daily report:

Breakfast: Yogurt
Snack: animal crackers
Lunch: grilled chicken sandwich on wheat...tea with splenda

dinner: some frozen salmon crap that mr. dd bought a while back, brown rice, mixed veg.

^5 DD!!!!! (One for every # you lost!) I'm so proud of you. Sorry you didn't like the frozen salmon crap (and glad it wasn't on the list of foods I recommended! Was it Gorton's by chance? I have some of their salmon filets with lemon butter sauce in my freezer - tried another variety that wasn't all that great so the others are just sitting there.) I've since been buying frozen tilapia and Mahi-mahi - like them both and have found several easy preps for them.

Thanks, my friend! No, it was some "bourbon salmon" I don't remember the brand, but it was crap. I only ate two bites, and Maggie and the cats got the rest. Ate the rice and a few of the vegetables. Just got back from the walk....Maggie and I are training for the Ididerod...I tell you it's a workout when you've got an 80 lb dog pulling you for a mile!!
