Fri (7-27) TOTAL CALORIES: 1280

I was down to 199.5 this morning! That is GREAT! I had to lose 7.5 pounds to get there. Of course that was JUST ME and NOTHING else. I even took my teeth out. (Just kidding. They don't come out.) But I took my watch off and took ALL the pins out of my hair.

Anyhow that is GREAT.

I don't have to go into work until two. I have not eaten yet and it is 12:35. I have concocted a meal to eat shortly which I don't know what to call.

I cooked celery, onion, green pepper, carrots, and mushrooms in one tablespoon of olive oil spread. I added some canned tomatoes and some of that sauce I have in the fridge that I can't think of the name of right now.(Allegro) And the left over ground turkey I cooked with taco seasoning. (I don't believe I'll be buying anymore ground turkey. I'm not too keen on the way it tastes. I have to find a way to mask the flavor.)

Veg/GT goulash
Sliced celery,
chopped onion
Green pepper
Carrots
Mushrooms
Canned tomatoes
Cooked Ground Turkey
(seasoned with taco seasoning)
Allegro Sauce

I don't know if I want to try to figure out the calories for all that but the main thing that I need to count will be the ground turkey. (I'd guess with no more meat than I got in my portions that it altogether was not more than 300 calories.)

I also mixed up a sugar free pudding and added about 1/2 cup of cooked apples to about a half cup. That shouldn't be too many calories. (65 for the pudding, perhaps 80 for the apples)

So I'll guess-timate that my total calories before work are about 500.

Lunch at work will be a sandwich. I'm still using that high calorie bread because my freezer is blocked off and I can't rummage for the lower calorie stuff that is lurking in its depths.

So Lunch will be another 390

That will get me up to close to 900 calories.

Snacks: apple (100) yogurt (110) cheese stick (60)

If when I get home, I'd content myself with celery sticks or carrots before I go to bed, I'll come out okay....

Later: I didn't eat the snacks. I didn't even get hungry at all. When I came home I ate a huge salad made with lettuce, carrots, cucumber, onion, and green pepper. (I got some really good green peppers from Sam's) and some grated cheese. I made a dressing of 1 Tbsp mayo (Light Hellman's) and jalepeno pickle juice and one pack sweetener.

I ate five snack crackers with my salad. They are 15 calories each.
My dessert? Three antacid tablets.

I'd guess my total calories would be a little less for the salad and snack crackers than it would have been for the string cheese, apple, and yogurt
