Week 2
Well the week is over and overall I ate correctly and drank my fluid. It was busy at work and my feet and joints have been achy so exercise was not quite as successful. I was on the bike tonight but could only manage 20 min. I have been trying to walk extra during the day but wish i could exercise more. Will keep trying to increase the amount i do. Will need to do major shopping this weekend as the weather is finally better. Also will go out to eat this weekend and will see how well i can do when i don't know the menu in advance. hope everyone has a good Presidents weekend.

Day 10/P5 lvday8
I just love the day 8 food plan. Its got oatmeal and yogurt and using some high protein oatmeal seems to be ok, . i save the fruit for snacks and I don't seem to get too hungry. Then I just love lunch and dinner. I have always liked tuna and making a sandwich on toasted diet wheatbread with the mayo on the bread and lightly spraying the salad with olive oil and adding some spices is proving to be a great lunch. I made extra chicken and froze it the last time and had saved some extra brown rice all i had to do was heat those up and cook the broccoli. I still have one portion of the chicken frozed from last time and i think I'm going to make a batch with lemon rosemary flavor and freeze them with the rice the next time i do this day. i'm thinking i will probably end up doing this day about 2 times a week......I know there is tuna on other days but a tuna sandwich and salad just appeals more than tuna and baked potato....but if i can find a piece of real tuna that would sound much better. I get my hair done and a pedicure today and will do my nails tonight after my exercise. I had to chop vegies today for the salad so doing day one. I sometimes lose track of how much i've been drinking and don't count it if i didn't mark it down and the other night i woke up in the middle of the night and realized that i forgot a whole jug......wondered why my count was so low...actually needed 32 oz added. so I think that i have made my fluid goal everyday even though some times it doesn't look like....like yesterdays is missing the can of diet coke i drank at work. Time to move on so i can get ready to go.

Day 8/P5 cal down/cal up
I slept in late yesterday and wasn't very hungry so i didn't end up eating everything on the plan. Then today I was hungry from the get go. I had decided to make salad, steak, and baked pot for Valentine dinner at home tonight....so picked day 9 to use again. Well the toast and fruit didn't do it for breakfast today and i didn't get home for lunch so tried to eat something reasonable at work...but as i have noted 2 other times if i don't eat enough one day i seem to be too hungry the next. If i eat about 1000 healthy cal i seem to be ok, but if like yesterday i only eat a bit over 800 i seem to rebound. I did add jello, apples, and the like for most of my excess today and between yesterday and today I averaged less than 1200 a day. I weighed and measured everything so no hidden extras. Also no real protein to breakfast...if i had done a couple of eggs for breakfast i might have managed better...so the next time this happens I will hard boil some eggs to take to work and just do that day. Time to go to sleep and move on to tomorrow.
