January 11, 2016
So, it is harder to keep up with this than I thought it would be. One factor is that I work 3 different part time jobs and my schedule is different every day and due to that I cannot eat at the same times every day. It just does not work out that way. My schedule is not even the same every week. I have not kept up with writing down my food or with the book, but I am trying. So far, I am reading that I should do things that I am not doing which then makes me feel condemned for not doing them. I am now drinking water every morning - day 1 - although I don't count sips. I have not been keeping up with my food diary - day 2. The cheap pedometer I bought did not work so I returned it, but I am making an effort to walk more - day 3. I resumed the stair master challenge and walk on the treadmill more and park in the back ends of parking lots. Not eating simple carbs after 6 pm - day 4 - is the biggest challenge and so far, I have not been able to do that. That is probably what I really need to do the most. Day 5 says to pick 2 exercises from a nicely explained and illustrated list in the book and do 50 reps a day. I have done that once, need to do it more. That part would be easier if it was a physical book rather than an e-book - easier to flip through the pages. Day 6 is the chew your food longer thing. Meh. Day 7 is to realize you should lose weight slowly and not expect it to happen all at once. Got that. Day 8 is to prepare healthy snacks so you don't eat junk food. I have done that off and on and it is a good thing to do.
So, today - drank water in the morning. Later had a 1/2 cup of coffee.
Breakfast - a turkey sandwich with cheese.
Snack - an apple, tea.
Lunch - leftovers from last night - salmon and veggies and cheese tortellinis, a few potato chips and a few ginger cookies, water.
Dinner - same as lunch plus a little purple sweet potato, water
Snack after dinner - ginger cookies, cheese

I drank water this morning.
7:15 am - coffee - 3/4 cup with vanilla stevia and half and half
8:10 am - breakfast - sandwich - 2 slices 40 calorie bread, mustard and vegan mayo, avocado, lettuce, hard boiled egg white, sliced olives, ice water
Today's change - #4 is to cut out simple carbs after 6:00 pm. I am sure that is a big problem for me and would help a lot for me to do. Probably the reason that I self sabotaged last night and ate cookie dough and chips and cheese after dinner is that I had not eaten enough calories during the day. I need to make sure I eat enough during the day so that I am not starving in the evening and over eat then. It also means no bread with dinner. That is sad. I am making this a goal though.
9:00 am - treadmill - 10 minutes, caffeine free green kombucha tea from tea bag
10:00 am - snack - leftover vegetables, water, a banana
12;20 pm - lunch - salad, 1/2 piece naan bread, tea (Tulsi holy basil)
snack - a few pistachios
5:20 pm - dinner - naan bread with cheese, some almonds
Well, that did not end well. I worked 5-9 and took the bread and cheese and some vegetable soup for dinner. I had time to eat between 5 and 6 but was not very hungry so only ate the bread and cheese. When I got home, it smelled like food and I was hungry and ate a lot. Chips and cheese, brownie brittle and more. That 5-9 shift makes having a scheduled eating time difficult. Some evenings when I work that shift I have an hour off desk when I can eat, and other times I don't and when I do have off desk time, it varies.

Last day of holiday!
This morning I remembered my water though.
8:30 am - drank water - did not count sips
This morning's weight - 129.8
8:45 am - coffee - 3/4 cup w/ half and half and vanilla stevia
9:30 am - treadmill - 10 minutes
10:00 am - breakfast - one piece of french toast, 1/2 piece of bacon, water
12:15 pm - lunch - salad - greens, olives, blueberries, cabbage, dried cranberries, sunflower seed/pepita mix, Olive Garden dressing, red wine vinegar
1:00 pm or so - green tea - plain, hot, good
Today's tip in the book is to get and wear a pedometer and walk 10,000 steps. I got a cheap pedometer at Wal-Mart, and used it for the past hour, but it really does not work well at all. I just went on a walk for about 45 minutes - a little over a mile and it said I had walked .11 mile, 330 steps. I have watched the thing and counted my steps and it counts about one out of every three and I have adjusted the stride on it. It just does not work. I am going to return it. I will walk daily, and step it up more from what I have been doing, but I don't trust pedometers and I am not spending a lot of money on another one.
2:00 pm - walk - about 45 minutes - perhaps a mile and a half or so. I walked the dog for part of the time and she is 12 years old and slow so I don't go too far or too fast with her. Then I brought her home and walked by myself.
4:00 snack - tostito chips with picante sauce and one tablespoon of sour cream, water
5:30 - dinner - stir fried sort of - veggies - potatoes, carrots, onions, green beans, and greens from my garden - arugula, broccoli leaves and herbs - thyme, parsley, oregano, tarragon and something else I forgot the name of from my garden along with spices and some sun dried tomatoes and a couple of cubes of basil pesto - I made up the recipe as I went, 3 pizza crusts from my daughter, strawberries and blueberries, 2 glasses of red wine, water, and one of my daughter's chocolate chip cookie blobs around 7pm

January 2, 2016
Ok, it is New Year's resolution time. I am reading a book called Thinner In Thirty: Small Changes That Add Up To Big Weight Loss in Just Thirty Days. Yesterday I read Day One, which says to drink 20 sips of water first thing in the morning as soon as your alarm goes off before you even get out of bed. Seriously? First of all, I had water by my bed this morning but did not remember to drink it until later after I had a few sips of coffee which woke up my brain, then I got a glass of water to drink. Secondly, the whole 20 sips thing annoys me because even if I remember to drink water as soon as I wake up I sure don't feel like counting sips. Anyway, I will keep drinking water as a morning goal. Today I read Day Two which says to keep a food diary, which I obviously have done on and off for years. The author says to share it with others to help make you more accountable and competitive. That is something I have not done before, so now I will look for a group to share this with. The author also suggests adding things to your food diary including energy level, mood, time of day, location and level of hunger. For the sake of accuracy and all, I will put today's weight on here - even though I don't like it. It is the time of month that I retain water, and at my age, I keep waiting for that to stop, but so far it hasn't. This morning I weighed myself and weighed 130.8. My normal weight has been a pound lower so it is either water weight or cookies.
So, today is a Saturday and I have the day off from work and I slept in.
9:20 am - began drinking coffee, then remembered to drink water - drank cup of water then cup of coffee - about one cup of coffee with 6 drops of vanilla stevia and 2 tablespoons of half and half.
Drank another glass of water later
12:00 pm - treadmill - walked 25 minutes. I was going to walk outside, but it is cold out there.
Drank some water.
12:40 pm - lunch - leftovers - rice/quinoa/millet cooked in chicken broth with veggies - carrots, green beans, sweet potatoes, onions and sugar snap peas along with a bit of leftover carrot/sweet potato/potato mix that had been cooked in the crockpot with maple syrup, coconut flakes and spices - all of it fit in a small bowl and a salad in a large bowl with Olive Garden salad dressing and olives, two strawberries, and some seed mix that I had made with sunflower seeds and pepitas and sugar and spices. Water.
2:00 pm green tea with ginger
4:00 pm - my daughter wanted to make cookies and I tried having her do it by herself mostly. She learned that a half cup is not the same as one cup of flour and got cookie mush. I ate about a cookie or two worth of hot chocolate chip cookie mush. It was good. Drank about 4 oz ginger lemon kombucha and water.
5:20 pm - did a vinyasa yoga video for stretching. It is hard to meditate and concentrate on your breathing when your 13 year old daughter is singing with headphones on and your husband is asking you questions.
6:30 pm - dinner - a basil pesto tilapia (from Costco - 130 cal), some leftover rice/veg stuff, salad w Olive Garden Dressing and olives, 1/2 breadstick (Costco), strawberries, water.
7:20 pm - treadmill - 5 minutes
8:00 pm Lavender tea

Too hot to walk this morning. I have not been able to walk as much since school started. I am hoping the weather will get cooler soon so I can walk in the evenings.
I have tried a variety of vegan foods and recipes and have had so much gas that it is just too much for me to handle. Last night I ate real cheese melted on a tortilla and it is so much better than the fake cheeses. I am not buying any more fake cheeses. Except for the Kite Hill spread that is a nut based cream cheese like spread - it is totally yummy and not oily like the fake cheeses that are made of - you guessed it - oil.
Today, to combat the rumbly tummy, I am trying to eat only blandish foods. I had my coffee because - coffee. I put the almond milk creamer and vanilla stevia in it like always - just 1/2 cup of coffee.
For breakfast, I had a piece of buttermilk bread from Trader Joe's toasted w/ avocado on it.
I have also had green tea to drink.
And for lunch - another piece of the same bread toasted with the rest of the avocado on it.
So far, tummy seems happy.
Hungry. At 3 pm ate another piece of toast w/ avocado.
another glass of green tea
Dinner - brown rice and roasted veggies both from the Deliciously Ella cookbook.
The rice is cooked w/ lime juice, tamari, salt and olive oil. The veggies are sweet potato, carrot and butternut squash w/ olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika and fresh thyme and rosemary.
glass of red wine

2nd morning walk because today is my day off - 30 min
Breakfast - sandwich - 2 slices of Rudy's organic spelt bread (I really like that bread, need to get more), 4 slices of tempeh bacon - it smells bacony, but is not the same at all. It is ok, and some lettuce, tomato, veganaise, and mustard. - later I had an upset stomach - I think the tempeh bacon did not agree with me.

Dinner - fried and baked okra from my garden - sooooo good, stir fried onion, mushroom and chard (chard from the garden), some spaghetti noodles with that, a bit of a Trader Joe's veggie burrito - too spicy for me, but my son liked it a lot and my husband said it was ok, and a couple of 365 brand oreo things with one side vanilla and one side chocolate - very good actually, and a couple of glasses of chardonnay
