Another Day

Today was ok.  Got my sunday basketball in.  Also did a nice walk to the park with the kids.

Breakfast:
- Instant oatmeal, 3 packets

Lunch:
Arugala Salad + bacon
+ a few pieces of cheese
+ salami chips

Snacks:
Keebler Cookies (maybe 6?)
Hershey's kisses (maybe 10?)

Dinner:
Hamburger on bun (a pretty big burger)
Green beans

Here's my record.  A good win today (6-1).  But I'm only 5-7 overall and 27-22 points wise over 7 days.  I'm doing horrible with the snacks/desserts.

On the bright side - work ended great last week.  We're making some really important progress in our project and a lot of execs (including my boss) are happy with the work.  As part of this, we won a pretty big battle with an important naysayer.

My kid's football team won its season opener - 34-0.

We had a wine tasting party with people from our parish, which was fun, but not great for calorie counting.

So, good stuff happening overall.  Maybe this week will be better.

Day 8

Ok, I've been off for awhile.  Today was a little rough, but I guess it's good to get back to it.

I've tried to go back a few days and track my food.  It's late tonight, but I'll go back and track food - definitely for yesterday and I'll come close on other days too.

I managed to go 6-1 today.  Subway cookies, a few munchkin donuts, and popcorn as a snack killed me.

So, here it is:

Breakfast:
- Bowl of cereal, milk

Snack:
Popcorn

Lunch:
Footlong subway, rotisserie chicken, no cheese, lots of veggies, on flatbread
3 subway cookies

Snack
4 munchkin donuts

Dinner
Salmon and broccoli

...

I really need to get back on track.  I guess today was a small victory.  I played basketball for 1.5 hours.  Fitbit said it's worth 1500 calories, so that's not bad.

Hopefully, tomorrow will be better

Day 2- OK

Breakfast:
Bowl and a half of crispix + milk
Glass of OJ

Snack:
Some doritos (too much, but less than yesterday)

Lunch:
Footlong Subway on flat bread, rotisserie chicken, no cheese/mayo

Dinner:
meatloaf + mashed potatoes


So, an OK day with food, but i need to get better.  At least no sweets today.  If I can keep from eating, not eating late is also a good step.

I might get a workout in.  I just did basketball practice, which is kind of a work out, but not really.  I need to be head's down with work for a bit, so I'll have to see how fast I can move.  I'd love to get to bed early enough though so I can get my 7 hours.

I am back - again...

It's been a long time since I've been on.  Thanks to realappeal - I'm going to take another run at tracking.  There's some disconnect between what I want to achieve and how I act.  Maybe putting myself out there a little more will make a difference.

If you're reading this, I ask that you not comment, at least until I've made some progress.  I don't take any feedback on losing weight well and this is hard for me (like it is for anyone trying to lose weight).

Breakfast:

- bowl and a half of crispix w/ milk
- medium sized glass of OJ
- coffee w/ a little milk


Lunch:
- lots of green beans
- chicken kabobs (spiedee's marinade, it's awesome)

Snack:
this is the bummer, i try to do no snacks.... i had doritos and some chocolate

Dinner:
i tried to make it up with dinner - only had a little bit of pork loin


The good news is today was a basketball day - according to fitbit, it was worth 1400 calorie burn.  I also got my water quota, but feel short of the 7 hours.

So, a strong first day... can i finish the night without eating?  And can I get another good day tomorrow...
