I am pleased with the 1 pound this morning. Today I am going to Clinton with Barbara to Hammers and then we are going to eat somewhere. Hopefully somewhere I can eat something good for me. More later.
Breakfast: 1 cup special k 110, 1.4 cup milk 30, 1 med banana 105. Total of 245 for breakfast.
Lunch/Supper: Ate at Chili's with Barbara and Brenda. Chips and salsa, two chicken tacos, rice, black beans, diet coke. Sour cream. I just found the calorie count for this meal at Chilis and the total is 1200 not counting the chips and salsa which is 480 for the chips and salsa. We had a refill on it so I guess I ate most of one serving by myself. So I probably had a total of 1680 for the meal. NOT GOOD!!!!!
Snack: 1 peanut butter cup 40
I don't plan to eat anything else tonight. I probably won't be down any tomorrow because of the meal at Chili's especially the chips and salsa but sometimes you just can't help it.

Wednesday - lost 1/4 pound
Not good but I will take it. I knew it wouldn't be good but I am glad not to have a gain. Today is another struggle. I go out on Wednesdays with my friends from Hillcrest. We always go to Austins and that is a hard place to diet. I am going to have to be very careful. More later.
Breakfast: 1 cup special k 110, 1/4 cup milk 30. Total 140 calories for breakfast.
Lunch: Went to lunch at Austins with my friends from Hillcrest. I had 1/2 of an 8 oz sirloin, 1/2 baked potato with sc and butter. 1 trip to the salad bar where I tried to get a lot of lettuce and not a lot of other stuff. Tbs of thousand island drsg. Tea with s&l. NO ROLLS!!!!!!!!!!!!
I went to Hillcrest to walk and I made one lap. My hip has been hurting when I walk so I was afraid to go any further.
Thursdays are bad also because James and I go out for breakfast before we go get groceries.
I don't plan to eat any more tonight unless it is just a snack.
I did have an 8 oz glass of V8 juice for 50 calories.

Tuesday - Lost 1.75 pounds
I am down 1.75 pounds this morning. I am sure it is going to be a hard day since I am going out to eat two times. But hopefully I can make the right choices. More later.
Breakfast: 0
Lunch: Well I had lunch at Louies with Mary and Barbara. I had about 1/3 serving of spaghetti with meat sauce. Barbara and I split ours and I brought James half of mine but I am sure she gave me more than half so I will estimate I ate 1/3 of it. I ate a salad and not quite all of the ranch dressing. I did not eat any bread but I did eat 3 onion rings. Diet coke. So all in all I thought I did good. Now to go to supper at O'charleys with June and Phyllis. More later.
Supper: Went to O'Charleys and I had the house salad 245, with ranch drsg. 100, 1/2 7 oz sirloin 158, 1/2 baked potato 100, sour cream 50, tea with splenda. I felt like I did very good. NO ROLLS!!!!!!!!!!!
I may not be down any in the morning but I personally think I did extremely well. If I wasn't trying I would of ate all of both meals and bread also.

MONDAY- LOST 2 POUNDS
Well, I am down 2 pounds today. I thought I did good yesterday. Hopefully I can keep it up. I am going to Josh's to work today so I'll see what happens. I am going to fix me a good breakfast and then maybe take me a WW lunch. More later.
Well it is later and I worked for 5 hours at Josh's house. For breakfast I had 2 oz of 99% ff deli ham on a bun. For lunch I had a ww dinner and then on my way home from Josh's I was about to starve (I guess where I had worked so hard) that I stopped at McDonalds and had a #1 meal. Then later James had cooked a turkey breast and I had some of it with mashed pot and greens. So I have probably ate too much but I'll try harder tomorrow. I also had one peanut butter cookie. I am going back to work again tomorrow so I guess I will work it off then.

MARCH 1ST - A NEW START
Well, I have wasted the entire month of February. I guess getting in the swing of retirement has got me off track of everything else. I will have to start anew. I have gained back the 6 pounds I lost in February plus another 1/4 pound so it is back to base 1. Thats what happens when you go out to eat everyday of the week. Well all I can do is start again.
For breakfast this morning I had my 1/2 cup of cottage cheese with the pinapple and sf jello in it. That is 190 calories.
For lunch we went to the Cracker Barrel and I had the Hamburger steak, baked potato with sc and butter, green beans and 2 biscuits one with butter the other with butter and honey and tea. So the worst thing I did was to have the second biscuit.
I had 8 oz of V8 juice for 50 calories about 4:00. I don't plan to have anything else today.
I hope I can start walking again soon but I don't know. The last time I walked at the track and the last time I walked at the mall my left hip started hurting real bad. I may be able to maybe just start out walking 1/2 mmile a day. I hope it doesn't mean the end of my walking. It is still cold but surely it will begin to warm up soon. I start back to eating out with Phyllis and June this week. I am also going to start working some at Josh's tomorrow so maybe I will get a little more exercise.
Thats all until tomorrow.
