Not bad..not bad at all.

I did alot better, quite frankly I will say I am proud of myself :)
I did do alot of snacking ...ALOT.
But they were healthy choices and one of the snacks (peaches), was because Z opened them and realized he doesn't like his peaches cold.
So I seriously could not let them go to waste and ate them.
Bad thing was I wasn't hungry, but I couldn't let them go to waste....we're too poor to waste food!

No workout...weather was rainy and I so did not want to use the treadmill.

Another one?!

Yes another blog, like I have oh so much time on my hands.
But my cousin has inspired me.
She has been blogging her food journal online, good or bad and I am terribly proud of her.
So after reading her entries I noticed something.
She's honest.
And with her honesty, I noticed a trend.
She seems to be eating better...good for you Tonya!
So here I am ready to put my head on the chopping block.

Yesterday's intake...sigh.

Cinnamon sticks boiled in water than added canned evaporated milk,
dash of salt, then oatmeal.
Sugar to sweeten.
Along side was two pieces of buttered toast....very bad.

Lunch:

And a diet Sierra mist.

Snack #1:
100 calorie cupcake

Bowl of fresh fruit, strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, apples, and grapes with 2 Tablespoons of La Lechera.

Late night dessert while watching a movie:

Piece of chocolate mousse cake....it was a pretty small piece but you know that sucker went straight to my thighs!
