Mary, help yourself to some I know you can do it!! Of course, today is weigh in day for me, and my scale just ISN'T moving. Still 139. But my clothes are all getting looser, so I'm just ignoring that number! Maybe I'll get over to fix my cheat free clippie today too.

I re-entered my cheat free clippie, but it's not working still. Hmmmm. Anyway, on to the journal for 5/5
am: 2 eggs, 1 slice toast (1C)
lunch: low carb ham and cheese flatbread sandwich (2/3 C)
low carb chips (1/3 C)
Quizno's has finally gotten a low carb menu. The sandwich was pretty good. The chips were some kind of soy chip, and had 5 net g of carbs. They were kind of a cross between the taste/texture of a dorito and a pork rind. It's not something I'd go out of my way to try again!

pm: 6 tortilla chips (1C)
taco salad w/ beans (1C)

No exercise, girl scouts.

Total carbs - 4

Hi Lisa,
I wish we had a Quiznos around here. They show the commercials and it looks delicious but there isn't one anywhere around . Although, I think I would take a pass on those chips you were talking about .

I hope you have wonderful weekend !

Go Lisa-
I think you are the queen of cheat-free!
I bet St. Mary's is beautiful this time of year. You have some great scenery for you walks. My DH is planning to bring the kids down to Point Lookout for fishing soon. He also likes to take them out in the kayak in the St. Mary's river.
Have a great week.
Mary
