Sunday - January 2, 2011

I had lost one pound this morning. For breakfast I had 2 slices bacon (70), 1 slice reg bread with 1 tsp yogurt marg.(105), 1 cup special k (100) with maybe 1/4 cup milk 40 for a total of 315 calories

After church we went to O'Charleys again and I had the 7 oz sirloin (430), 1/2 of a baked potato 170, margarine 85, sour cream 50, salad 80 (took off croutons), dressing 100, 1 roll 130 for a total of 1045 calories.

For supper I had a lean cousine dinner of sphaghetti and meat sauce for 300 caloires.

Looking back I should have done better at lunch. I could of left off the butter and sour cream which would of been 135, and not of eaten a roll for 130. That would of cut 265 calories which would of brought me down to 780. So breakfast, lunch and supper would of been 1395 which is about what I should of had. But that is hindsight. But maybe a learning experience.

I need to try and plan better when I go out. Thursday I am going to the Red Lobster and that will be a real challange.

I took down my Christmas tree and decorations today. I plan to go to the gym tomorrow.

A NEW YEAR A NEW START

You know me, a new month, a new year, a new start. I have several goals as I start this new year. Of course one of my biggest is to lose weight. I have probably 40 pounds that I need to lose. I have let my weight creep back up to almost 200 pounds. I also want to pay all of my bills and save some money this year. And I want to get in better physical shape. I have went back and joined the gym and I will start going to the pool probably on Monday. My orintation is Tuesday but I may go ahead and start Monday. I started my diet today. I went with Brenda to West Town and I did get some jewerly at Dillards.

Breakfast: 1 slice of reg bread (90) with 1 tsp of yogurt margarine (15), 2 slices of bacon (70), 1/2 cup of oatmeal (150)

Lunch/Dinner combination: Brenda and I went to O'Charleys and I had salad with ranch, baked potato with sour cream and butter and a 7 oz sirloin. Tea.

Later I had 1 slice 110 bread with 1 tablespoon (95) peanut butter and a small orange.

I feel real postitive so I hope I can do good.
