down 2 lbs for the week; however, that loss was in the first 2 days, and no loss since 1-1-08 I'm thinking the rest of the pounds I need to lose are gonna have to be blown off with some dynamite! OK...OK...truly, I think they may not budge until I get back into my exercise routine. Soooooo....me thinks I may haul my behind to the gym tomorrow if the weather is crummy, otherwise I'll hoof it or bike the 'hood.
Anyhoo....

today's #s will be:

• 1380 cal
• 80g fat
• 116g pro
• 54g carb
• 23g fiber
• 31g net carb

On to week 2 with a new found determination!!!!dance2

Hi Gang! I'll come back later with numbers. But........after a terrible day yesterday, I lost a pound. So, today, I have lost five pounds since the first. Pretty good, huh? We had turkey and gravy and stuffing today at the ofh. It was good. I limited my intake of gravy and stuffing, but loaded up on turkey. I also had a nice big salad. Skipped the dessert.

Peace, Peg

Shelley: How do you get in all that fiber?

Ok, tomorrow is Monday......... hope springs eternal. I'll be better that I have been the last couple of days. I did avoid the frozen cookie dough in the freezer. I had actually forgotten about it...... then saw the container earlier this evening. I really really wanted it, but I made myself stay away. I feel virtuous.

Oh, to be back at goal.....

Judy, bite the bullet and convey that frozen cookie dough to the trash immediately. If you can't stand to "waste it" give it to a colleague or a neighbor. Why torture yourself??

It's HOT in KC this morning. I'm sorry, but it's January. I want COLD.
Cold burns calories.

Hi Gang! Didn't lost anything overnight. Weight: 199.4

Here's my numbers for yesterday:

Calories: 1656
Carbs: 132 (net) 33%
Prot: 81.9 20%
Fat: 85.1 46%

Well, the percentages are pretty okay, but the carbs are bad! Sheesh. It is in this that I see the value of tracking! I didn't lost anymore weight this morning. Now I see why! I'm going to analyze what it was that I ate that caused all those carbs. How depressing, I didn't even have any bread or dessert. (Of course, I did have about a cup and a half of eggnog with.

Peg

Back later to enter yesterday and today. Haven't forgotten!

Hi, Kids. I'm keeping my records in Fitday, and I'll post a weekly summary instead of a daily report.

Today I made flaxmeal cereal instead of a muffin. I forgot about that cereal until I ran across it in a recipe search. Costco finally decided to restock my favorite mixed berries, so that's today's treat.

I'm opening up my menu with nuts and berries. I don't have much trouble keeping carbs low when I'm eating normally and not snacking on junk. I'm pretty deep in ketosis, which didn't take long to achieve.

I haven't dropped any more pounds since that initial whoosh--but as I mentioned, that's not my goal now. Restoring my normal LC lifestyle is, and so far I feel comfortable with that.

Enjoy today, and don't beat yourself up over food or weight or anything else! Life's too short.

I made a broccoli slaw using Henry's dressing recipe to take to the potluck tomorrow. At least I'll have one thing legal to eat. It's really delicious, too. I made extra so I'll have some for lunches and suppers at home.

Looks like I've only had about 900 calories today, which might be why I'm hungry! I think I'll have a nice protein shake or something before I commit to a total for the day.

See you all tomorrow
