[joelyfaithsmommy]

ok, let me post yesterdays eats, then i'll come back and post my first post for today!

We were out of town all day yesterday at my two sons' graduation party...they are both graduating this coming week (Jaron 8th grade, and Jayt 6th grade) so we were off to my parents house to enjoy family, swimming, and of course food...before we even left I gave myself permission (not to gorge) but to have what I wanted for that day alone. here's what I ate:

BREAKFAST: water, i was getting ready to leave, and just didnt take time to eat!

LUNCH: 2 slices supreme pizza, 3 breadsticks dipped moderately in cheese sauce, fruit (cantalope, watermelon, grapes, stawberries) 1 small pc cake 1/2 pc cookie cake.

DINNER: Grilled skinnless/boneless chicken breast w/bbq sauce, salad w/ ff low call italian dressing, cantalope, watermelon, honey dew melon, and grapes. 2 spoon fulls of fruit dip (made with cream cheese, powdered sugar, and cool whip)

SOOOOOO not the BEST day I've had...but considering I decided to eat with everyone else I feel my choices were pretty good...normally I would have eaten 4-6 pc of pizza...and probably a very large piece of cake and cookie cake!

I drank 32 oz of water

EXERCISE: walking up and down the stairs at my parents house about a million times...carrying lunch and dinner from the kitchen upstairs to the kitchen downstairs....(don't ask) LOL...

anyhow...I'm kewl....stlll feeling bloaty..... hoping that feeling goes away soon...going to make SUPER WONDERFUL CHOICES today...and KEEP ON GOING!!!!

I know I'm on my way!
Huggies,

Jen

Hi, Jen!! I'm glad you had so much great family time yesterday! Good job on the moderation on food. You are making great choices! Loved seeing all the fruit that you ate and that you remembered to drink water! Now, really up the water intake today whenever you can so that you flush your system!
I can imagine how excited you are in the final days before going to see Mickey! I am very excited for you!
Have fun planning for the two graduations!
