Down 6 pounds as of today. Haven't been very hungry today. In fact, I have had to force myself to eat to get the cals/protein in. At 11:30 tonight, I had to go down to the fridge and figure what would be the best choice to get in 300 more cals and 10 more gms of protein. I think I'm officially detoxed from regular Coke as of today...that was probably one of my main vices to gaining so much weight back. So YAY for that! Here's the calorie log for the day:

B: South Beach Protein Bar (140 cals / 10 protein)

L: 1 cup taco meat (200 cal / 20 protein), lettuce, salsa, 2 tbsp low fat sour cream (40 cal / 2 protein)

D: 1 cup taco meat (200 cal / 20 protein), lettuce, salsa, 2 tbsp low fat sour cream (40 cal / 2 protein) Yes..it was a leftover day!

S: 1 cup ricotta cheese mixed with sugar free lemon flavor jello pudding mix (320 cal / 24 protein)

Total calories for today is 940 calories and 68 grams of protein.

Getting off the soda was so key for me too. It caused so much havoc with my digestive system. I never new..... I have not had any soda since June 29,09 and going strong. I love to make better choices today. Keep up the great work and charting your proteins and foods is excellent. Best wishes imaluckydog
