Hi Sinead, Yeah, there was cheesecake on this menu too... And a chocolate moose with chunks of cheesecake in it! **drool** but I didn't have those ones, cheesecake (although my dearest love!! ) does usually do a number on me. I was actually okay! My tummy was a little rumbly after, like, "What is this?? We haven't had this in a LONG TIME! I don't know what to make of it!" while we were walking to the car and on the way home, but enough that I could ignore it and not mention it or anything. We got home and I took my meds and some calcium and settled in to the couch and fell asleep, no tummy problems at all. That was last night, this morning I am feeling pretty stable too. Just had a luna bar and am about to get down with some studying. Hmm, maybe I could have it every day!! JUST KIDDING!! **hugs** --Steph

Hi Shell, You know, there is a place near me that does Bikram yoga and I have been toying with the idea for ages.. I think the part that appeals to me is that it seems like such a toxin-releasing thing to do when you sweat so much! Let us know how you are feeling today so I know what to expect if I do give it a try! The only downside is that it is like $17 a class! so I can't _really_ afford it until I get a job.
Congrats on another week without any weight gain!! You have been doing SO AWESOME that I bet some of the difference MUST be added muscle and fat burning away. And holy moly on the water intake!! Was that all from the yoga? You must have sweated a whole lot of it out though, eh? You're doing a terrific job, keep up the good work!!! ***hugs*** (well, after you've changed out of the soaking wet clothes, hee hee) --Steph

Hi all! So far today I haven't done any exercise as I just woke up a little while ago. This is what I have had so far:
Breakfast: Nuts over chocolate Luna Bar and half can of peaches in juices (drained though) = 230 calories.
Rest of the day - I plan to do my elliptical machine now. For lunch I will have leftover turkey meatloaf as a sandwich or something, not sure yet! No plans yet for dinner, I am pretty busy today so probably pasta or something easy! Will report the rest in later! So far so good! So for my weight loss................ I gained 3 lbs! Hey, it happens... remember it took me from NOV to MAR to get rid of FOUR pounds.... it would go and come back and go and come back... it will happen...just give it time...you on the right track with your diet and exercise..., Yes...you CAN make that goal if you really really stick to your PLAN... but I know you have other things going on in your world right now...so you don't really need to make this your #1 priority....just don't forget it.... I am pretty unhappy about that, because that means that I DID NOT meat my goal to lose 5 lbs in a month but rather 1 lb. My next goal was going to be to lose another 5 lbs in the next month but now that makes it 8 lbs to lose, which I'm not sure I can do. Am pretty frustrated, but will carry on. your are wonderful.... Cheers all! --Steph

I didn't go too mad but did give in to a little temptation...
Breakfast Porridge with berries and honey
At Coffee Break time: Water, a banana, a slice of homemade brown bread toasted
LunchSelection of salads from work salad bar including a noodle salad, a pasta salad with olives, some tomatoes and a kaiser roll yum
Afternoon snacka Marks & Spencer minimuffin, lemon & white chocolate flavour. NOT my fault a girl from work brought them back after lunch and then I had a horrid day- its was only 130cals and while not safe didn't hurt my tummy one fruit pastille (20 cals!) ok, your forgiven....THIS TIME!! lol
DinnerWhite rice with a very small chicken breast and some frozen stir fry veggies and a sweet and sour sauce
Dessert usual babyfood fruit puree
Water on target- 80oz very good!
Activites Walked home from work- 3 miles in 45 mins - burned 132 calories- so covered the "price" of the minimuffin! lol
Total Calories consumed: 1843
BMR 2320 plus 131 activities= 2451. I consumed 1843 calories so have a surplus of 595.
NB AMENDED FURTHER DOWN THIS THREAD AS I WAS A BAD BAD GIRL!
I KNEW I would eat so much more once I went back to work! Still on target though, weigh in for me is Monday morning so I will have to be extra good and get loadsa exercise all weekend! sounds like you have a plan...!!

Breakfast: same -450 snack: same-380 1/2 salmon subway- it was not good. Do not try the new salmon subs- not worth it!I was wondering....I'd never seen those.... guess cuz I stopped going when the changed the mayo in my tuna (also I couldn't find my coupons and they were right on the car seat! ) -200 1 bag baked lays -130 some baked tortillas before dinner- hungry -100 1 ADB -125? fish, rice and peas- 375 total cals: 1760
Exercise: last day of rehab! weights and only 30 minutes treadmill as I had a dr. appt. so burned 450 cals. other: was out and about all day. Must have burned tons of calories stressing over my checkbook balancing! (on line bill pay got messed up! ) lol
So the question is how many cals do I burn going about my business during an average day. I know how many I burn exercising and I know my bmr (resting I think) which is 1400. Well I will find out soon when I weigh myself (Sunday morning). GOOD LUCK!!
