Thank you,
Indiana -- a separate thread will be good -- and I
am becoming more aware, I can see that.
I think you were very kind to say 9 starches, b/c it
was probably way more than that... all that cookie dough, etc...
but I am becoming more aware, and this morning as I was walking, I told myself, "Okay, I'm going to say I've already had 2 starches w/my pb crackers... and I KNOW I'll have AT LEAST two tonight if dmom cooks... sooo I better not have more than two before we get to dmom's."
I really do appreciate you helping me get on track a little better.
I'm drinking plain water right now as I type this.
Well... might as well type it in. It's not going to disappear if I don't...
Breakfast 9:00 a.m.Diet Pepsi
PB Crackers
Banana
* vitamins
After walk 10:00 a.m.Bottle of water
More water
Lunch? NoonGranola nut bar
Lunch? 1:00 p.m.6 Triscuits
1 slice cheese
Salad
3:00 2 cookies
4:00 Grapes
More water
5:301 cookie
2 small pieces Dove dark chocolate
Supper 8:30LOTS of country ham
LOTS of bacon
2 biscuits w/a little bit of jam
1 Pillsbury cinnamon roll
3 bowls of fruit
2 Diet Pepsi's
So... looks like to me, 11 starches? But you might say the biscuits & cinnamon roll counted twice, in which case this would be up to 14, which is horrible.
On the good side, I did have over 64 oz. water today, and I estimate about 7 servings fruit/vegetables.
Also need to add exercise:
Week of July 25Sunday -- 25 min. -- Floor exercises/walk away the pounds
Monday -- 20 min. -- Walked 1.2 miles
Tuesday -- 45 min. -- Walked 3 miles
Thursday -- 30 min. -- Walked 2 miles
Friday -- 40 min. -- Floor exercises/Walked 2 miles
Also did floor exercises another day or two, but didn't record. I'm trying to do them at least every other day, push ups, sit-ups, etc., but I've not gotten that routine established very well yet.
