Finding myself...

As I was going through my exercises this morning, I remembered this blog and decided to search for myself. That sentence works on more than one level...

I continue to struggle with weight loss, fitness and health. Will this be my definition as a person? What do I want to be?

Oh, how the mighty has fallen...

What a ba-a-ad day! WHY?! I am not sure...

So... what did I eat today?

Breakfast:
milk at home with vitamin and ibuprofen
1/2 energy bagel with cream cheese

Snack:
1/2 bagel (honey wheat) with cream cheese

Lunch:
beef stoup; giant marshmallow; 2 lindt balls

Snack:
OMG! I stopped at Trader Joe's after a long walk in the woods. I got potato chips and oatmeal cookies dipped in chocolate and proceeded to eat 1/2 of each in the car ride home. CRAZY!!!

Dinner:
clam chowder; corn bread with butter; nachos with sour cream and salsa

Just as I start to make a little progress and feel a little good about myself, I ruin it and attack my own efforts. What is this about?

May tomorrow be better...

Lunch:
cucumber with dip; beef stoup; smallish bowl of coffee ice cream

Quick and dirty...

So... what did I eat today?

Breakfast:
breakfast was at school today, since I had to shovel the driveway first. It was a bowl of high fiber cereal with milk and a banana.

Snack:
None. Ella was very sad so I sat with her throughout snack and I didn't take a break.

Lunch:
cantaloupe; beef stoup

Snack:
whole caramel apple (tsk...tsk...)

Dinner:
whole steak sub (1/2 should have been sufficient); small bag of chips

Meeting at Oxbow, so dinner was on the run ~ never a good thing. Not an excuse, but an explanation...

May tomorrow be better...

Okay...

At first, I felt like such a failure... until I really thought about it. Then I realized I could still sort of rescue the day if I was careful... so I did.

So... what did I eat today?

Breakfast:
2 slices ez toast with pb and jam; milk

Snack:
banana

Lunch:
beef stoup; multi-grain chips (too many); a few slices caramel apple

Dinner:
chicken tikka masala; mixed veggies; white rice; 2 slices nan

May tomorrow be better...

No title...

All I could think of was "tired," but I've used it before, so today has no title.

So... what did I eat today?

Breakfast:
2 slices ez toast with pb and honey or jam; milk

Snack:
cantaloupe (planned); cupcake (unplanned-in the staff room)

Lunch:
curry chicken and onions with peas on boiled potatoes and carrots (Still YUM!); a small piece of cake (still in staff room). I really wish I hadn't eaten the cupcake or the cake, as it wasn't worth it. Why must I eat something just because it is there?!

Snack:
yogurt with raspberries and syrup

Dinner:
A long drive around trying to decide what to eat and where, then I decided to go home instead. I stopped at the convenience store and bought a little bag of chips. I wanted Wachusett, but they only had them in bigger bags and I knew I'd eat it all (or at least more than a serving size!), so I bought a different brand in a little bag. I went home and made sweet potato "fries" in the oven, as well as asparagus that way and they were delicious. Then I had an ice cream bar for dessert (that I also picked up at the store... also single-serving).

May tomorrow be better...
