D: Asian style Chicken packets w/Veggies & a tossed salad & a 2nd glass of wine. – 8:00pm
I know I should have had the first glass of wine with more food, but I’m proud of myself to have the self control not to have more than 2 glasses of wine!
S: Ricotta w/Vanilla. – 8:30pm

Back to my P1 ending weight...planning to run again tomorrow.

D: Out to dinner with friends tonight. A little nervous because it's a local sushi place that is having an anniversary dinner buffet and I'm not sure what non-rice options they are going to have. I love sushi, but aside from the wine the other night I've been so good. Not sure how the white rice will affect me. I'm going to load up on salad and soup and hope they have a sashimi option! Fingers crossed it'll go well.
S: 2 FF Fudgesicles w/Peanut butter

[wrknonit]

Dinner was delicious! Had some sushi, but more than balanced it with Salad and Veggies. Totally worth it

[SharleyBloom]

That happens. Just keep working the program. It will start moving again. Just keep doing it!

You can, you can, you CAN!

[wrknonit]

Thanks Sharley! I am glad I found this board or I may have given up in frustration. Knowing the stalls are normal makes it easier to deal with. It also helps when you get a compliment from someone at work. Even if I don't see a difference someone did...that's cool.

P2 D10

B: V8 & Steal Cut Oats oatmeal
S: Decaf coffee w/2% milk
L: Leftover Salsa chicken & couscous w/tomatoes and chickpeas
S: BBBs & Decaf coffee w/2%milk
D: Leftover Salsa Chiken w/Broiled Summer Squash & Red peppers & 2 glasses of wine.
S: I see FF Fudgesicles & peanut butter in my future.

[SharleyBloom]

So, I'm going to go to the market and make sure, but I believe that the No Sugar Added fudgecicles are only 40 calories and the Sugar free are around 70 calories. You can start there and drop the peanutbutter and see if the scale moves again. Just a thought.

[wrknonit]

Thanks! I'm already on the No sugar added 40 calorie fudgesicles, but I had 2 so that's 80 + the 2tbs of peanut butter (no sugar added) at 200calories. You are sooo right! 280 calories for dessert is a little excessive huh? Especially when I'm sure I'd curb the sweet tooth with sugar free jello or the yummy ricotta options.

I'm travelling for work tomorrow and Friday so that brings a whole new set of challenges, but I will keep this in mind for when I get back.

P2 D11

B: V8 & Steal cut oats
S: String cheese (on the plane when they tried to tempt me with yummy biscoff cookies & twix bars - that's what I would have had before)
L: Grilled Chicken Salad with Sesame Dressing - Dressing was on the side, but I ended up using all of it. Probably full of sugar, but overall better than getting a gyro or something else the restaurant had to offer.
S: BBB & bite size tuna sandwich on Rye
D: Grilled Salmon, Snow peas & Salad + 2glasses of Red Wine.

Overall not a bad day for not being home!!

Today it's almost noon and I haven't eaten anything yet since I slept in and then went to the gym. 3.37miles on the treadmill in 40minutes. I'm ok with that, but now I'm STARVING!! String Cheese and decaf coffee to tide me over till lunch.
