Dec 27 Journal

Well, the scary first weigh in on the new scale was 164.6. I feared worse. I want to be in the 150s, so I am only five pounds away from my goal, which is totally achievable.

Breakfast - oatmeal
Snack - nine teddy grahams, fibershake with milk
Lunch - 3 ounces of cranberry chicken
Snack - small salami and cheese sandwich, one piece of dark choc mint ghirardelli (this was my low point - I was starving)
Dinner - (we had company) Bailey eggnog, two triscuits with cheese, three small pieces stromboli, two servings salad, one piece kringle and 1/4 of a seven layer bar

Water - 6 out of 10 eight-ounce servings so far

Workout - 1/2 hour shoulders and back + 250 calories on elliptical.

Negatives - The afternoon snack was unplanned and desperate. I could have been better by eating yogurt or a piece of fruit. I could have had one less piece stromboli.

Positives - I didn't pig out with company, I drank quite a bit of water, and I controlled my portions throughout the day pretty well. Good job at breakfast! I didn't eat any more after my post last night and will not again tonight.
