Still no loss today. I don't really know what the problem is. But I am trying to hang in there. It was back to school for me today.
For breakfast I had my usual 90 calorie cottage cheese and pinapple, 2 slices of bacon 70 for a total of 160 for breakfast.
For lunch I had a WW Dinner for 280 calories.
For supper James had made a pot of soup off of Joy Bauer's Life Soup recipe. He had to make a few changes for things that we didn't have like using brocooli instead of cauliflower. But it was real good. I asked him to estimate how many calorie he thought a cup of it had and he said 150 so I am going for 200 for a cup. I also had two slices of ww 40 calorie bread for 80 and 1 Tbs. Jiff Peanut Butter. On saturday I wrote that it had 90 calories per TBs but it has 95, I also ate a medium apple for 70 calories so that made me a total of 445 for supper.
Breakfast 160, lunch 280, dinner 445 for a total of 885 calories.

MONDAY- LOSS TODAY 0 TOTAL 4.5 SINCE 1/1
I didn't have a loss today but my lunch at Texas Roadhouse was a little heavy yesterday. Also after I signed off last night I had a tangerine and an apple. I was so hungry.
Today for breakfast I had my pineapple and cottage cheese for 90 calories and 2 pieces of bacon for 70 calories for a total of 160 calories. I went to school to put some things in order in the kitchen and make tea etc. after that I decided to go to the bank at Halls and just as I left the bank my glasses broke in the middle. My glasses were broken last week and James had glued them together but they came apart again so I went to ACE Hardware and bought a tube of super glue and went to the Bel Aire Grill and sat there and glued my glasses and drank tea and had a grilled chicken sandwich and a baked potato with sour cream and butter. O yeah also a pickle. But I told her not to bring rolls and butter. It was all very good. Anyway that will be all that I will eat tonight. I am going to estimate that the baked potato and Chicken Sandwich took the rest of my 1200 calories for the day. Hopefully I didn't go over. I am going to see it they have their nutritional values on line.
Oh by the way my glasses wouldn't hold so I drove home without them. I could see pretty good. I am going tomorrow afternoon and get some new frames. I don't know whether to expect to be down any tomorrow or not, we'll see. I would like to have at least 1/2 pound so that would make me 5.

SUNDAY - LOST 1 POUND - TOTAL 4.5
Sunday is always a hard day. I done good at breakfast had my cottage cheese with pineapple for 90 calories.
Lunch we went to the Texas Roadhouse. I didn't eat any peanuts. only ate 1 roll. I tried to look up their nutritional values for Texas Roadhouse and it had mock rolls and they were 227 each. So I guess that is what I will count it. I had a 6 oz sirloin steak and it was 386 calories. I split my baked potato with James because he got steamed veggies and they weren't done so a whole baked potato with 1 tbs butter and 2 tbs sour cream was 438 so I am counting 1/2 that for 219. I don't know what to count the salad. It wasn't very big but it had cheese and croutons on it so I am guessing 250. Also they brought me tea that was sweetened (I should of made them change it but I didn't) and I am counting that as 150. So I have not done real good today. I am hoping that I am over estimating the calorie count in some of this but if not for breakfast and lunch I have had 1322 calories.
Right now it is 8:00 and I have just got home from church and I am starving. My stomach is growling. I guess I can drink some water. I am proud of the 4.5 pounds that I have lost already but it looks like it is going to be slow going for no more than what I am eating.

Just to be safe I am counting my steak as 300 calories, 1/2 cup of mashed potatoes 120 calories (from Calorie King) and 1 cup of broccoli with 1 tsp. marg made with canola oil I counted my broccoli as 100 calories and I had two tbs. of steak sauce at 15 calories per tablespoon for a total of 30 calories.

FRIDAY-LOST 1.5 pounds
This has been a good day for my diet. This morning Jennifer and I had 1/2 cup of lowfat cottage cheese with orange sugar free jello in it and pinapple (it is very good) for 90 calories, 1 piece of bacon 35 calories for a total of 125 calories for breakfast. But it really stays with you a long time.
Jennifer, Jon and the boys left at 10:30 and I cleaned house for a while and then went with James to the doctor for his check up. Then we went to the Cracker Barrel for Supper. I had 4 pieces of grilled chicken, hash brown casserole and green beans, 1 biscuit and tea. I am not sure of the calorie count in all of it but I don't think I went over my 1200 calories that I am allowed per day. Hopefully I will show a loss in the morning.

New Year continued
Well Jennifer and I went to the Chop House for lunch. I told the waiter not to bring us any bread (Jennifer was too chicken). We both got a salad 438 calories (it had cheese and bacon on it) we split a baked potato with sour cream and butter for 230 calories and 1/2 of a 7 oz. sirloin for 189 calories for a total of 857 calories. That added to breakfast gives me 1002 calories for the day. I don't plan to eat anything else.
HAPPY NEW YEAR
Well today starts a new year. I found my journal that I started last January 1st and I am up 20 pounds. I only gained 2 pounds from January until March and then that is when I quit keeping my journal. I was wondering how I could of gained 20 pounds because I know I gained it before school started in August because my uniforms were real tight. especially my pants. Then James said he thought he knew why I had gained. March is when he was diagnosed with lymphoma and cancer and we just let our eating get out of hand. He thought his days were numbered and he would "by George eat what ever I want". So I must of thought the same thing "by George". So "by George" it doesn't look like he is going to die any time soon and I have gained 20 pounds. At least that is a good reason. So I am going to try again and he also has decided we are eating very unhealthy. I weighed this morning and I am back with it again.
For breakfast i had 1 piece of whole wheat toast 40 calories with 1/2 tsp lite marg. 10 calories, 2 slices Oscar Mayer bacon at 35 calories a slice total 70 and 1/2 tangerine for 25 calories for a total of 145 calories. More later.
