11.2.09 - Stephanie

First post from me! I am so glad you have started this blog of support and I look forward to getting this aspect of my life UNDER CONTROL. My plan is to post twice a day - once in the morning with my "plan" for the day, and once in the evening to re-cap. Now, there may be more than 2 posts on particularly hard days so be forewarned!

I worked on a menu plan for the week and did a huge grocery shop this morning. Lately I have been doing the nighttime binging thing - probably out of boredom/loneliness/stress. Other than that, I know my meals are decent - it's the PORTIONS that are way to big.

Here is my plan for dinners this week (not necessarily in this order):

Tonight: Breaded baked chicken, sweet potato, roasted asparagus
Tuesday: Vegetable Lasagna
Wednesday: Steamed Chicken, Butternut Squash Mac n Cheese, green beans
Thursday: Fish Soft Tacos, corn/peppers/black beans
Friday: Turkey Chili
Weekend: Leftovers from the week

And my goals for the week are to MEASURE portions, drink water, and have a Casein protein shake every night as my snack (so I can have a full stomach to take my vitamins) and that's IT.

I'm also going to go weigh myself right now. And it's 228.

No negative comments. Just moving onward and DOWNward.
