I am beginning this on a Saturday to avoid the daily hassles and interruptions to keep my balance.
Saturday; Aug 22, 2009
Breakfast today was 2 eggs scrambled, 2 pieces turkey bacon, sauteed peppers, onions and tomatoes. Just as well have a big breakfast since it helps to lose weight. I am sure I had too much, but just healthier than the old donuts or pastries! I had one slice of home made pound cake with my 2 cups of coffee. Believe this or not---pound cake is a neutral food. Not a good habit, but not a killer.
Lunch was pork loin, sweet potato, lima beans.
Snack was almonds.
Dinner tonight baked chicken, salad, italian dressing, fresh peach
Water: minimum of 64 oz.
Exercise: bike ride 10 minutes, walked dog, after lunch walked, after dinner rode bike (pretty huge amount of activity compared to doing none in the recent past)

NOTES: It would have been easy to skip lunch. I had to make myself stop and eat. This is a challenge and I need to plan for how I am going to have lunch when I am out working.
