Please pray for my little lovey

Back on the wagon....

We just returned from New Orleans where we celebrated my wonderful Grandmother’s life. I will post later with a true tribute (what I am capable of) to her. As for my eating….I was in New Orleans and did not do so well. But, today I am back on the wagon again.

Breakfast:

2 pieces low fat string cheese 4 points

Snack:Mixed Vegetable Melody 0 point

Lunch:

Turkey Soup 3 points
Orange 1 point

Snack:

Baby Carrots 0 point
Fat Free Sour cream w/onion soup mix 1 point
Persimmon 2 point

11 points used.

For dinner last night we had Albondigas Soup…..it is traditional Mexican fare, by you and I it would be considered Meatball soup…..it translates to 7 points. I also gnoshed on olives that I will count as three points. Putting me in a good spot for the day. (I didn’t eat my banana or orange, so I have to re tabulate my totals.)

In an effort to jumpstart motivation in 2008, I am going to include in my blog a daily post of my eating healthy efforts. Today, I have packed my breakfast, lunch and snacks for the day….just like I do for Gia.

Breakfast:
1/2c Slow Cooked Oatmeal 2 points
1 Small Orange 1 point

Snack:1 Banana 2 points

Lunch:Lemon Chicken Soup 3.5 points
Green Peas 2 points

Snack:
Orange 1 point

Used 11.5 points. 9.5 points remaining. I will blog about dinner tomorrow morning as well as any “activity points” that I earned from the night before.

I really don’t want to “lose” as much as make healthy choices all around. Being an example for Gia is my number one priority.

Happy New Year to all!
