A Perfect Day
Nutritionally speaking, I think I had a perfect day.
I started my day out right by eating breakfast (granola with skim milk).
I took a cooler full of healthy snacks to work- which I munched on throughout much of the morning. Carrot sticks, sliced green pepper, strawberries, and chocolate covered rice cakes (which are really, really good).
I also drank a 16 oz bottle of water before lunch.
Hubs and I came home for lunch where I enjoyed a small sandwich (on a dollar roll) and more fruit. I also drank a can of tomato juice and a 100% juicy juice box (counts as 1/2 c fruit).
This afternoon, I ate more carrot sticks and enjoyed a 100 calorie jello cup. I also drank 2 bottles of water.
Tonight, I had a hotdog and beans AND ate more strawberries and had a cup of apple sauce. You can criticize me for the hot dog (and maybe the beans), but I did really well in terms of fruits and veggies.
The real test will be at the bowling alley. Tonight is league bowling. Last time, I brought my own drink (lemonade) and didn’t buy anything! Everyone else on the team ate dinner at the alley (chicken fingers, mozzarella sticks, cheeseburger, soda, and beer) but not me! I waited until I got home to eat. Tonight, I’m bringing a lunch bag full of snacks- more veggies and some rice cakes.
I’m really proud of myself.
This proves one thing; I can do anything for a day 
You are awesome!!!! You sure have come a long way since huge ice teas and taco bell!!!!
Keep it up

I’m trying; but not only did I not lose anything last week, I put some one. Don’t know how much. We have a deal ~ I don’t ask and she doesn’t tell! And I really did a lot of activity this past weekend - schlepping boxes and stooping and reaching. Damn! That should have been worth at least .5 lb.
But, congratulations to you - I’m jealous!

When you said “the real test will be at the bowling alley,” I first thought you were referring to the beans
They are the magical fruit you know.

Great Job!!
The last time I was on a bowling league….the more beer I drank, the better I bowled!
Everyone bought me beer!
