2009 Pound A Week Challenge Food Logs

**itsahumanzoo** · 02-10-2009, 04:19 PM

I thought it might be a good idea if we kept our daily food intake separate from the challenge thread that way people's weigh-ins don't get swallowed up in the conversation.

I am doing Weight Watchers, so I will be counting points, but please feel free to count calories, fat, or whatever you want!

Today so far:
grapes (1)
water
crackers (4)
water
tomato soup and toasted pita bread (7)

Good idea Angela! I will start posting my intake here instead.

**Debbie-cat** · 02-11-2009, 01:13 PM

Breakfast - 2 cups black coffee, 1 slice banana bread (no butter)

Snack - nothing

Lunch - 1 slice homemade artisian bread (nothing on it), 1 cup coffee

Walked 3 miles today - 46 minutes (didn't jog because I am still coughing too much from my cold)

Today:
Breakfast:
2 glasses of water
1 packet of oatmeal with 1/4 cup of walnuts (7 points)
Snack:
Bottle of water, bite of DS's cookie (Okay, I forgot to eat a snack)
Lunch:
More water, chicken pasta with a little bit of cream sauce that I made. (8 points, approximately)
Snack:
Water again, 1 serving of chips and salsa (3 points)
1 cup of grapes (1 point)

I still have half my points left. I had to add the grapes to my snack because my stomach was still growling after the chips and salsa and chugging a glass of water. Nursing makes me SO HUNGRY!

I've noticed that those of you who are posting what you eat, seem to do well losing weight, so I think I will try to log what I eat here.

I wish I had started yesterday, because I didn't eat much yesterday. Today, not so good:

Breakfast:
three homemade blueberry muffins
banana
coffee

Lunch:
sandwich of baked chicken, 1T low-fat mayo, shredded carrot, sliced celery on 2 slices whole wheat bread

Snack:
1 serving Chex Mix

Dinner:
apple
1 serving leftover pasta in sauce

Today was low on vegetables, high on starch, salt and fat! But I did drink several glasses of water.

Lunch:
Vegetable Beef Barley Soup (1 cup)

I wish I didn't have that slice of pizza, but also glad I stopped at one slice, and ate the smallest slice on the pizza.
