breakfast:

vegetable soup over spaghetti squash
lettuce with homemade ranch

poopy drink

Here's to eating more next week.  I didn't eat enough calories this week hence my diminished metabolism and decreased weight loss from the weeks I wasn't starving every day.

Next week, my goal is 950-1100 calories per day.

Thank you.

Jeanette: 1.24 and 1.25

This has been a rough week for me.  Not gonna lie.

Friday I didn't go to the gym.  I was so tired after school!  I also ate too many calories.  But I am NOT giving up.

Friday

Breakfast
2 fritattas with salsa
1/2 piece toast with almond butter

Lunch
1 bowl veggie curry soup, 2 carrots, 6 crackers
1 bowl my beef soup

Dinner
1 bowl leftover beef soup
4 lettuce wraps
1 bag popcorn

Exercise

Today (Saturday), I went to the gym first thing.  I also ate very light today.  Here's to hoping the scale will be merciful tomorrow!

Part of the Reason I Feel Mad at the Scale

Look at the fun stuff I passed up at mutual!  My YW made meatloaf muffins with mashed potato frosting.  Seriously!  I wanted to try it.  But I said no to everything, even though I was so, so hungry.  Anyway.

Jeanette: Wed/Thurs 1.22 & 23.14

Despite starving and exercising, the scale has not moved for me this week.  :(  Like, at all.

Wednesday (1/22/14):

Breakfast
1/2 cup black beans and salsa

Nutrition Break Snack
1 apple

Lunch
1/2 taco salad with salsa yogurt ranch dressing
(I didn't finish either my breakfast or my lunch.  I only ate half.  I felt like I shouldn't keep eating if I wasn't really hungry.  Cut calories!!)

Dinner
Chicken in Jamaican Jerk marinade (9 small pieces), steamed broccoli/carrots/cauliflower (about 1 cup), zucchini (small pieces fried)

Note
I did  not eat ANYTHING at mutual, even though I was starving.  I drank water and went to bed hungry.

Exercise:
Ran/walked (but mostly ran) in the freezing cold on the Greenbelt (2 miles)

Thursday (1/23/14):

Breakfast
1 breakfast burrito

Lunch
Chicken in Jamaican Jerk marinade (9 small pieces), steamed broccoli/carrots/cauliflower (about 1 cup), zucchini

Starving While Shopping Snacks
1/4 of a piece of jerky
3 cashews
3 wheat thins

Dinner
Green smoothie, 1 bag popcorn
1 roll
(Ok, I bought the rolls for the staff luncheon at school tomorrow, and I fell off the wagon.  But seriously, that was the best roll I have ever eaten in my entire life.  I think I'll sleep better tonight, even though I'm STILL hungry.)

I may resort to drastic measures soon if that scale doesn't move.
