Sunday January 24th-Postgrad
Breakfast: 2 pieces of toast, scrambled eggs, cheese-5
Lunch: potluck lunch-10?
Snack: frozen yogurt-4
Dinner: WW pizza-8
pretzels-2
ice cream cone-3
32/22
Ok....so I've realized how not writing stuff down is killing me. On the break I would have thought today was not a bad day but look...I went 10 points over. I planned my meals today for the rest of the week and realized that if I do what I wanted to do I would be completely out of points after dinner and have no margin for snacks/dessert in the evening. I may need to either cut down to one snack and just pick morning or afternoon or cut down on my dinner. I really want to try and eat smaller meals but it's hard for me not to want to come home and have a "real" dinner.
I'm very ready to get back on track.
I have 3 weekly goals for these next 7 days.
-get 8 hours of sleep
-work out on the elliptical for 30 minutes 4 times this week
-do not eat over my points for the day. (except Wednesday b/c I'm going with the fam and I am saving a couple extra for eating out)

Breakfast: coffee (1), toast (1)=2/20
Lunch: cheese stick (1), pb on slice of bread (2)=5/20
Snack: fro-yo (4)=9/20
Dinner: SMALL piece of low-fat lasagna(5), salad(0), corn (1), peach crumble (4?)
Snack: a handful of little marshmallows (2) bowl of honey nut cheerios (2)=23/20+5
Activity: walking for 45 minutes at ~4mph and up and down hills (+5 APs)
Goal: Get reorganized: make a plan for working out, for meals, and for tracking. (check!)
I do the same thing as far as estimating and not tracking!!!
Maybe you should rethink your snacks? Maybe some 1 or zero points snacks would be better? Or more fruits and veggies at lunch? I'm not sure what your typical day really "looks like" but I try and just each half of my points on breakfast+morning snack+lunch. This usually means I have to have a light breakfast or a light lunch, but I prefer to have a substantial dinner so it is ok. I really like my coffee/latte in the morning for breakfast because the warmth seems to fill me up so I don't need such a huge breakfast (like I've always had). I also try to do little things with it like toast (zero for one slice), 1/2 cup of fruit (usually zero) and maybe a couple pieces of ham cooked in a skillet (1)...that way I feel like I've had a big breakfast, when really I've only had a variety of little things. I think variety is usually key for me at a meal: if I get to have several different things in small portions I get full quickly. I like to do the same when I take my lunch so I don't feel so deprived (zero point soup, 3 point sandwich, 0-1 point salad/veggie, 1 point cheese stick, 1 point fruit=5-6 points for a really "big" lunch).
