Goals for 11/17/09

1. Try to squeeze in meals today
2. Work from 5:30 - 9:15
3. Keep fiber above 20
4. More later... not thinking well right now

1.  Nope.  2.  18 g.  3. Bowled from 6:30 - 9:00. 4.  Spent some time with family.  5.  Nope.

Yeah, I had about 2000 calories today because pizza is GREAT.  I'll work on eating better tomorrow.  Starting with Fiber One toaster pastries.  Why do I eat less when I should be eating more and eating more when I should be eating less?  Today I burned less calories than yesterday, and I went over by 500 today and yesterday under by 300.

I functioned on more like 6 1/2 hours of sleep, because I fell asleep around two and was wide awake at around 8:30.  I worked from 5 - 9:10, which was pretty good.  I didn't eat according to plan - I actually ate less.  i had pie with a diet coke at 10, a lean cuisine with water around 1, two McChickens and an unsweetened iced tea at 4:45 on my way to work, and a ham/cheese sandwich with fat free mayo and a water after work.  I should probably eat again but I'm not hungry.  I burned about 2500 Calories or so and I only had 1354 today.  I'm out of pie so I can't just gobble down a sweet.  Well, maybe I can.  I actually am craving some candy right now, and there's a vending machine not too far.  That'll get me up over 1500 Cal.

Calorie Intake:  1354 Calories
Grade:  C+ (???)

Other - 3.4%

Daily Sodium Intake - 3,762 mg
Daily Sugar Intake - 41 grams
Daily Cholesterol Intake - 108 mg
Daily Saturated Fat Intake - 11 grams
Daily Fiber Intake - 13 grams

Nutrition Report is BEFORE CANDY RUN

Goals revisited:  Didn't sleep that night and probably forgot to eat.  I worked from 4 - 8:50, so I clocked out before 9.  And I had 1533 Calories.

Tomorrow's Goals (11/10/09):

1. Function on 4 - 6 hours of sleep.
2. Work from 5:00 - 9:15.
3. Manage meal times/portions carefully.
   1. Eat pie with water at 9:30 (300 Cal)
   2. Eat Lean Cuisine with Diet Coke at 12:30 (239 Cal)
   3. Eat chili, chips, and sandwich with water or Diet Coke at 4:15 (585 Cal)
   4. Eat Healthy Choice Soup and Ham/Cheese sandwich with water after work (370 Cal)
   5. Figure out how to make up 100 more Calories, assuming this is actually what I eat today.
4. Note:  Will burn 2400 Calories tomorrow.  Deficit hopefully around 900.

Edit:  If Calorie Intake is over 1100 by 4:15 (and it very well could be, considering sometimes I get excited over a food I've found or I get hungry at random times), go to gym after work.

From today's goals:  I ended up with 1560 Calories.  The reason was because Joe wouldn't let me bring food into the bowling alley, so I ate fries for dinner.  I put the pennies in the coin counter and pulled $35 from my account.  I bowled TERRIBLY.  I averaged about 107, when my average has been in the 120's, 130's.

Tomorrow's Goals (11/05/09):

1. Eat my meal plan (hooks to about 1500 Cal)
2. Work from 5:30 - 9:00
3. Pack/eat dinner for before work.
4. Meet with Dr. Delaney
5. Squeeze in some exercise, even if it's after work.
6. Study study study.

That goal day:  I drank the fuze drink, did the trick or treating, ate within reason for calories, went to the bank, ate before presentation, ate again around 8:30, and bowled.

Life's nothing great right now but I'm working on improving my life little by little.  I was at 170.8 the other day, and as for today, I don't know because I already downed breakfast and I'm dressed.

Today's Goals (11/03/09):

1. Make Lunch (microwave Pad Thai?) at 12:15
2. Shower
3. Make/pack dinner
4. Study for PSY311
5. Work 5:30 - 9.
6. Meet up with Corey possibly.
7. Keep Calories around 1590

I lost my scale a few months back and now I really miss it!  I have this feeling I'm gaining weight despite my semi-wise food choices and irregular exercising (I go when I feel like it, which accumulates to about 5 hours of exercise a week).

So far today I've eaten:

• Breakfast:
  • Large bowl of cereal comprising of 3/4 c rice krispies and 3/4 c honey nut cheerios, with milk.
• Lunch:
  • Egg salad sandwich with pickles (white bread... what can you do when you're broke?)
  • 1 cup of cubed honey-dew melon.
  • Coffee with 2 tsp sugar

I'm thinking about eating the honey-roasted cashews (which are lower in calories than salted by the ounce) for a snack right now.

Goals for the rest of the day:

• Finish Assignment 1 for PSY472
• Finish Daily Report for PSY472
• Don't be tempted by whatever my roommate wants for dinner (I hate skinny people who eat whatever they want all the time).
• Get paycheck from work (optional today - no banks open)
• Take a more positive note on what happens today.

Hey again all.

Just a quick question... does it actually matter from which source I get my calories?  If it just happens to be high in fat, is it at least that I am getting the right amount of calories?

I'm back I'm back!  I really haven't been active since August?  Oops.

New boyfriend... kinda gets on my nerves but that's because he's too young for me.  He's only 18.  I haven't been eating great but I've been checking in once in awhile, reading the new Dr. Mary topics.  Fast Food caught me.  I'm sorry all, but Fast Food is a friend I cannot give up easily.  I didn't have any today, though.

Today's food (just to keep up with):

Breakfast:
1 XL bowl of rice krispies (approx 2 cups)
1 cup milk

Lunch:
2 of the 3 Lunchables pizzas in the package
1 egg salad sandwich (which desperately needed mustard)
1 12-oz cup of fruit (so probably more like 6 oz fruit)
1/2 bottle (regular) Pepsi

Dinner - running late so halfway on the run
3 pieces of pound cake
16 fl oz Dr Pepper

After Dinner Hungry Meal:
1 Lean Cuisine baked chicken (actually pretty good!)
8 fl oz diet pepsi wild cherry

Goals for Tomorrow (thursday):

1. Finish Proposal (with flyer and brochure)
2. Finish Geo Essay
3. Find out how to do Lab
4. 1400 - 1600 Calories
5. Semi-deficit

Yesterday's Goals Completed:

1. Staying hydrated? Why bother when they're shoving electrolytes up your arm?  No me gusta, je l'aime pas.
2. Did this.  Didn't like this either.
3. Short nap from 5 - 7, then didn't sleep again till 4:30 a.m.  Feeling it.
4. Had half a cup of Japanese, got sick, and took that 5 - 7 nap.

EDIT:  I have moderate to severe acid reflux and they are running a biopsy on what could possibly be Barrett's Esophagas.  Barrett’s esophagus is a condition in which the tissue lining the esophagus—the muscular tube that connects the mouth to the stomach—is replaced by tissue that is similar to the lining of the intestine. This process is called intestinal metaplasia" ((according to http://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases/pubs /barretts/)).

Today's goals:

1. Make up for the Ben & Jerry's I grabbed for breakfast to eat in the car on the way to school
2. Kick Matthew out
3. Take a nap
4. Do ALL FRENCH HOMEWORK INCLUDING PROJECT
5. No deficit for Today or tomorrow.  Need to get off starvation mode à cause de my procedure

Warning you all, my punctuation will be weird because I am on the French Keyboard at the moment and do not feel like switching because I am in class.

Ohio, you know better about 1000 Calories.  How about you keep a regular deficit so you dont kill your body.

KA2007 Good job so far, I see that you are completing all your goals.

Summer_moth - I do not remember you coming in!  Welcome in, even if it is late!  AND!  147... I would die to see that number.  I havent seen that number since I was a freshman in high school. *ENVIES MUCH*  When I get down to 150 I am going to go back to the doctors and find out if I can get an insurance approval for reconstructive surgery.  The doctors' approval will be higher if my weight and cholesterol are both lower.

Todays goals:

1. Log expenses (thanks for the idea, KA).
2. From 3 - 5, run to the bank, put the check there, and leave it hopefully.
3. Cut down on coffee (I keep running to the BR... thanks IBS).
4. Any deficit at all.  Possibly eat 1800 - 2000 Calories.  That would be a 800 deficit.
5. Work 12:45 - 3:00; 5 - 9:45 ... 6 1/2 hours, I think.  Someone do the math and get back to me.
6. Find time to nap.
7. The store à 9:30 avec Erica.

Oh yeah.  Laundry.  ka, I feel you there.  I should do some, myself.

Ohio:  Thanks for the compliment on my "A".  And great job on seeing the 7's!

I might take a shift tomorrow if I feel up to it.  I want to make 40 hours this week. That would pull me home maybe $225 this week.  It burns Calories and it means I don't have to go to the gym.  Today was crazy.  I'm surprised I got out by 9:30.

I had to eat quickly as hell today before work b/c both the guys on the line had family emergencies.  Unfortunately, the quick-to-eat foods are the ones that have the most fat... like pizza, burgers, and the like.

A lot of empty calories on Dr. Pepper today.  I didn't mean to, but I wanted something sweet that they had at work, and I HATE caffeine free diet pepsi.

Aww FtF, we'll miss you in the next few weeks.  Take care of yourself.
