I like the water idea...i do that to....to have a self check on my real hunger…

Sorry I didn’t post this here.  That would have made more sense.  This was a first for me tracking my food.

Mini Food challenge

Mini food challenge - day 1

I don’t have a fit day account but I thought at least for this challenge I’d just keep track of what I’m eating.  I’ll look into fitday later.

Breakfast : Luna Lemon Zest bar ( I know, it’s not exactly a meal, but it was better than nothing)

mid morning snack: apple with 1 oz. cheese

lunch:  peanut butter sandwhich on 2 slices whole wheat bread
1 dole cup pineapple in juice

afternoon snack: yogurt 8oz low fat
handful of Annie’s organic cheddar bunny crackers

dinner: roast beef (aprox 2-3 oz.)
steamed green beans
small baked sweet potato
small corn on the cob

evening snack
1 nonni biscotti original - 90 calories, 3g fat
aprox 1 oz. almonds

late snack - 40z. lowfat yogurt

I went to the convienece store and did NOT buy any candy, especially halloween candy because I knew I’d have to write it down. (that’s a baby step).  I didn’t eat properly this morning ( waited too late) so I felt hungrier today, like I couldn’t catch up.  Planning is the key, which I didn’t do today.

Mini food challenge - day 2
Thur sep 28
I actually ate real food for breakfast today, not wanting to repeat yesterday
breakfast - 1 slice whole wheat bread, 1 8oz. nofat yogurt w/ ground up almonds, 1 c.  decaf green tea
a.m. snack - about 20 almonds, small banana
lunch - (leftovers) open faced roast beef sandwhich w/ mustard, lettuce, cucumbers and green beans
p.m. snack - smart start cereal bar, 1oz reduced fat cheese
dinner - grilled chicken breast, sweet potato, sweet peas
pm snack - 1 ghiradellli darkchoc square (50 cal, 4g fat) -yum
1 lfat yogurt

WOW… ok 2am Fri morning… just got back from seeing some friends. Let’s see if I can remember what I ate today (Thursday):

Breakfast: plain oatmeal, sliced apple (some in oatmeal.... mmmm), 1/2 c. cottage cheese (240)
Snack: skipped… oops
Lunch: 3 lettuce wraps, each w/ 2 slices of turkey, sliced almonds, tomatoes (450)
Snack: 20 pc. turkey “pepperoni” and slice of provolone (BAAAAAAAD… but oh so good) (180)

Out with friends…
Dinner: 2 delicious pieces of pepperoni pizza… There was nothing else and I budgeted, I swear! (560, from pizzahut.com. Thank god I stopped myself, I could’ve eaten the whole thing!)
2 Margaritas, 12 oz. sour mix (240)

Goal: 1200
Actual: 1670
Net: +470

Ouch....  I tried to plan all day for the margaritas… I didn’t plan on the dinner though. I guess next time I should make sure I eat before I go (this time I didn’t, so I was hungry when pizza came).

What’s horrible is that I had already avoided pizza once during the day.. *sigh*

It’s ok… with my elliptical workout and situps for the day I think I evened out.

I’m ready for the next MFC.

Onward to tomorrow!

Wow Carlyn!

You did great!!!  Very healthy!!!  I didn’t know we were listing the food we eat, but great idea!  I didn’t keep track yesterday, but I will for today.
I’m not that good at keeping track of calories, and all that, but will do my best.
this morning, I had coffee, 2 slices of whole wheat toast with a little natural peanut butter. 
About . . hmmm . . .450 calories!  Yikes! 
I need to go and ride my bike   Burn some calories! 
see you around!

Sorry Guys.. I got a little lost. I didn’t realize the MFC was out here and not in the 100 days. So, I kept track in Fitday. And.. I would probably give myself a 7/10 on this first one. On the next one, I promise to be more deligent about checking in!

Nice work on the first Challenge, everyone!
