Well, I've been away for a while. I went to a conference out of taown last week and didn't have internet access. When I got home, my internet connection was working right, so i have only been able to post the occassional message. Let me just say, I miss the board! Posting and reading posts is SOO helpful and supportive for me. I do much better when I can come here every day. So I'm posting this from work (which i don't like to do) so I can at least get something posted for the week.
I decided to try Mary's Mini this week. Or I should say, I've joined the 15 day challenge on the MWL board. I've done pretty well this week. I bought two bags of my favorite jumbo russets and Oreida potatoes were on sale. i bought SIX bags!
I've nearly used up all of my potatoes, so gotta get some more.
My weight before I left last week hadn't changed from the week before. After I got back from the conference, I was up a pound. I'm ashamed to say, I gave in to that little voice in the back of my mind that screams "potato chips!" at me all day long. I bought a bag. And ate it.
And then i was up THREE pounds! But I've been on track all week. On weigh in day i couldn't post cuz i couldn't get online, but I was back down to my weight from last week. No loss to report. and this morning, I was down a half pound!
God bless potatoes. And God bless Dr. McDougall!
I've had a crazy, stressful week at work, and next week looks like more of the same. I didn't plan my food very well yesterday. Planning right now means nuking lots of potaotes. So i ended up eating out for lunch and dinner. I had 2 meetings after work and didn't get home til 9:30. I went to a Thai place for lunch. They usually have good veg soup, but yesterday it was all tofu and a few pieces of onion. I HATE tofu! Serves me right though, I should have gone to Wendy's and gotten a baked potato. Dinner was steamed broccoli and rice from a Chinese place. Again not MM but not awful. And right now that little voice in mty head is saying that a pizza would make all of my troubles a little bit easier. It will NOT!! Not even a cheeseless pizza! I'm doing mary's mini!!! but hey...I could make the potato pizzas from the fat free vegan blog. Yay!!
My 100 day MWL challenge: I've totally lost track
Days w/o chips: 4
What I ate today (so far): I've been eating on a bag of Oreida hash browns most of the day (cooked at home and brought to work). Now I am STARVED. Must go in search of more potatoes.
