Comments:
I've gone back and looked at what I ate when I lost weight before and I am looking at Leslie Sansone's Walk at Home Videos again. I'm somewhat "afraid" to take off trying to walk around the circle because my knees are giving me trouble and I'm afraid I'll get away from the house and they will start paining me and I won't be able to get back very well.

I suppose I'll try doing my exercise bike for a little while and then at least try to get through a half mile of LS's one mile walk every day this week.

I intended to be GOOD and have something like broiled fish and a vegetable to eat next but J called up and asked if I had ice cream and he and T, along with C, came over to eat some (and to take care of some stuff he was going to do for me). I ended up eating about a cup of Blue Bell Black Walnut ice cream (320 calories) in a cone (90 calories).

By the way, I passed on eating the coffee cake that was brought in to work this morning because I knew I was going to write down everything I ate today. If I hadn't decided to start this, I probably would have eaten at least 400 or more calories worth of that stuff.

Okay, so it looks like I'm already pushing 1800 calories for this day and I really didn't want to go to bed without eating something else, so what's a good choice?

Maybe I'll go for a salad. If... if I have the stuff to make it with.

I finished off a bag of Italian salad mix with pickle vinegar, a packet of sweetener, a few sprays of conola oil, a few craisins, a few slivered almonds, and less than a tablespoon of "salad topping" (20)-- whatever that is. (1 1/3 Tbsps = 35 calories)

Probably the whole salad was around !00 calories.

So.... My GRAND TOTAL for the day is going to be under 2000 calories.
And my exercise for the day was pulling the exercise bike out of the corner and riding it for about 5 minutes.

Starting Again 2011

I've decided upon a three part plan to start working my way back down to a reasonable size.
1. Drink more water.
2. Exercise almost daily.
3. Keep a food log of what I eat ( and, if possible track the calories)
