Week 1, Days 2 through 7, Mandy

I know you are wondering where I have been. I haven't blogged since Week 1, Day 1! I have been having trouble signing into the blog but don't worry....I have been writing down my meals. This week has been hectic. I haven't been feeling good. I have my annual sinus infection. I have coughed so much that I think I am about to go crazy! I went to the doctor today and got my annual sinus cocktail shot. I am beginning to feel much better!

So here is my update on my meals:

Saturday (Day 2)

Breakfast:

1 package of maple brown sugar oatmeal

2 cups of coffee with cream & sugar

Lunch:

6 inch BLT on wheat with light mayo and a drizzle of olive oil and vinegar from Subway

Snack: 1/2 garlic bread from my Mom's lunch

Dinner: 1 slice of pork tenderloin, approximately 2 cups of black eyed peas, about 1 cup of sauteed mushrooms, 1 scoop of mashed potatoes (mashed potatoes were not a good choice but I did better than I normally do and ate a small portion.)

Sunday (Day 3)

Breakfast: 1 packaged of maple and brown sugar oatmeal and 2 cups of coffee with cream and sugar

Lunch: 1/2 of salad with grilled chicken at the Helen Brett Show. I was so proud because last year I remember eating a GIGANTIC barbecue sandwich and chips. I chose wisely this year.

Dinner: this was a very difficult dinner because we went to my sister-in-laws for my nieces 9th birthday. She fixes the best spaghetti and anyone who knows me understands that I don't eat small portions of spaghetti. It is by far my all time favorite food. However, I did it! I ate a very small portion and took advantage of the salad instead. Yay ME! I did eat a tiny piece of cake because I couldn't resist. But again....I made the portion very small.

Monday (Day 4)

Breakfast: 1 packaged of maple and brown sugar oatmeal and 2 cups of coffee with cream and sugar

Lunch: My brother, Robbie and I went to lunch after I took him to the doctor. We went to McAlister's and I had my favorite salad called the Savannah Chopped Salad and 4 club crackers.

Dinner: fist size portion of grilled chicken, 1 cup of Lima beans, and a baked potato with nothing on it but salt and pepper

Tuesday (Day 5)

Breakfast: 1 packaged of maple and brown sugar oatmeal and 2 cups of coffee with cream and sugar

Lunch: Black forest ham sandwich with horseradish mustard and a banana

Snack: Banana

Dinner: 1 hamburger chopped steak, about 2 cups of leftover black eyed peas and about the same amount of Lima beans

Wednesday (Day 6)

Breakfast: 1 packaged of maple and brown sugar oatmeal and 2 cups of coffee with cream and sugar

Lunch: VERY VERY BAD! I think me not blogging on a regular basis is making my motivation disappear. I had to help a friend out today and after we were finished we sent to eat at Patrick's. Goodness....I was very bad. I am embarrassed but I ate macaroni and cheese, but I did counter that and ate turnip greens, and squash. But I did sin again and ate 1 corn bread. I feel bad about it now. I gotta do better.

Dinner: 1 baked potato (had to make up for the awful lunch I had)

Thursday (Day 7)

Breakfast: 2 cups of coffee with cream and sugar. However, I didn't finish some of the 2nd cup. Scrambled eggs with cheese (This is what Aubrey wanted to so I ate a few)

Lunch: Black forest ham sandwich with horseradish mustard and a few baked potato chips with salsa and a banana

Dinner: TBD
