Okay, time for the truth to be told. It's weigh in day. Now, I've been watching a lot of Dr. Oz on TV. He says to weigh oneself every day to track progress. And so, I'll be posting my weight at the end of every day here. Let's see what this week's eating habits have wrought.
Now I did have two sodas today and my dinner was way more than 500 calories. Part of that is the soda and the milk. I figure the milk was good, I know the soda is bad. Still working on kicking the habit. It's going to be a long road. On the upside, after all of the soda in the house is gone (it'll take a while at the rate that I am drinking it) I won't be buying anymore so I'll have to turn to either milk or water.

Now instead of me writing the recipes for dinner I found them online so click on the links above and it will take you to the recipe web pages. They are super delicious!!!!!!!!!! And easy to cook. I recommend starting the rice first as it takes longer to prepare than the Salmon.

Well, it's the soda that killed me again today. I'm really working on reaching for water first, but when my tummy feels queasy, there's something about fizz that really helps. Not the greatest of excuses is it? Oh well *sighs*
Breakfast:
8 oz Glen Oaks Strawberry Banana Drinkable Yogurt
6 oz 2% Milk
I love this drinkable yogurt, but it's so thick, so I mix in the milk to thin it out. It doesn't change the flavor at all and I get more calcium and magnesium in my diet to boot :D
