Diet and Fitness Buddies Community Group
A group to help us on diets support eachother.
This is a new thread for posting our daily food log for the month of DECEMBER!!!!!!!!
During this month there will be lots of gatherings/parties and many feast involving good friends and family.
It is during this time that many of us may feel tempted with all the goodies that will tempt our will power. Try to stay strong and focused on your long term goal. However, if you falter and sway too much to temptation, don't sweat about it and regret it..... just remember that when we fail it becomes a part of our learning process. It makes us stronger and more determined to achieve our goals!
The only suggestion I can give is to perhaps try and have a little bit of everything and don't deny yourself the fabulous food. Maybe you can drink more water during these events to help combat those extra calories!!! LOL.
Either way, it will be hard to stay on track and remain focused. Here's to wishing you all the best of the best and hopefully we won't be in too bad shape come January!

I really didn't follow my plan. I was so busy all day running around town doing errands and I didn't take care to measure my food for supper. I just ate everything... healthy... but everything. I had worked up an appetite and I was too lazy to measure and just ate to my heart's content.
I couldn't believe it when i stepped on the scale this morning and saw that I was 150.0 lbs. Again. The lowest I have been and the weight I've been struggling to get back to.
Maybe it was just pure frustration and wishful thinking that got me the results I was looking for. I don't know.
But I'll take it!!!!!!
Breakfast; bread and peanut butter; one cup of tea with milk
Snack: bar
Lunch: egg and bread; few carrots
Snack; bar; few dates; one cup of tea with milk
Supper; 1 cup of lentils; one slice of bread; some carrots; one yogurt
Snack: 1 cup of pineapples
3 cups of green tea.
No water.
Housecleaning the ENTIRE day. I let my chores slip as I was nursing two of my kids most of last week and into the weekend. The house looked like a tornado went through it. Started at 10 in the morning and finished at 9:30 in the evening. I took a couple of breaks to watch a little bit of tv as I folded laundry.
Crazy day.
Breakfast: slice of bread with peanut butter; two cups of tea with milk
Lunch: went out: little bit of pita, rice; little bit of lentil soup; one skewer beef kabaab; fatoosh salad
Snack: bar; yogurt
Dinner: little bit of cholay (garbanzo bean curry); little bit of ground beef curry; slice of bread; couple of baby carrots; cup of pineapple; bar
Snack: little bit of pineapple; handful of raisons
one glass of water (at restaurant)
three or four cups of green tea (lost count)
crazy day of running around doing errands.... I had so much to do and was trying to get it in before the kids got home from school.
I haven't logged my intake on here but I'm keeping track of it. I've been good with my eating but have just been so busy helping kids with projects and we worked into the wee hours last night and tonight I was out looking for two birthday presents for two parties tomorrow. I'm exhausted. It's late and I'm making myself a cup of tea and can hopefully keep my eyes open long enough to watch something on tv. I need some down time before the rat race starts again tomorrow.
I've been good at writing down my food intake but not good at logging them in to this site. However, I think I messed up this evening. I think I had too much of a good thing. I'm so full and bloated right now. I could have stopped but I didn't.... I took just one more piece and I knew the minute I took it that I should put it back but I still ate it..... boy, was it good!
i guess I'll have to wait and see what happens on the scale tomorrow morning. Hopefully I'll still be the same weight and not gain anything.... hopefully.
I barely got any water into me today. I did, however, consume four cups of green tea.
Breakfast - Toast & 2 Slices of bacon
Lunch - Baked potato with shredded cheese & boost Nutritional drink
Dinner - Lasagna with a slice of garlic bread
I have not been posting and my weight gain shows me how much I need to post and ke.ep track of the food I consume. My exercise has been non existent.
breakfast-- 2 paranthas stuffed with 1 cup tea
lunch- skipped had one cup green tea and one guava
evening-- one bar chocolate (small) 2 omlettes, 2 roti, half malabari parantha, one cup green tea, one cup indian tea
excercise-- 20 minutes dance
So glad to see you guys back!!!
I totally believe that if you keep a daily food journal, your weight will start to fall off. You are more cognizant of what you are putting into your mouth and it will make you change your bad eating habits.
I was beginning to think that I was the only one around here. But I just kept on posting and using this site like it was my own.... that i had to account for myself! I glad you guys are back.... we can start to support each other again.
Good luck to you guys.
I didn't drink any green tea... frankly, i didn't have time with all that water I had to get in!
I am done my cleanse tonight and I can't wait to see what the scale says tomorrow. Hopefully it will be kind to me.
I'm going to go to sleep and dream what bread tastes like again. A few short hours and i'll be enjoying sinking my teeth into a slice. ummmmmmmmm
Today I had:
Breakfast: Bread with peanut butter; one banana; two cups of tea with milk
Snack: bar
Lunch: bread with one fried egg
Snack: one raspberry yoghurt
Dinner: 4oz potato encrusted fish; one cup of cook mixed vegetables
Snack: I'll be having fruit... don't know what yet
I've consumed 3 cups of green tea and NO water.... I guess I'm back to my old habits. I drank so much for the last two days that I didn't even want to look at it. Lol. I was actually busy and didn't have time to drink it. I know the excuse sounds lame but its the truth. Maybe I can squeeze in one glass before bed.
Breakfast: bread; peanut butter; two cups of tea with milk; banana
Snack: bar
Lunch; bowl of lentils
Dinner: larger bowl of lentils; gobi ( a cauliflower 'curry'); bread
On my way out of town during a one hour drive: handfuls and handfuls of Hickory Sticks... my favourite.. I begged the hubby not to buy them as they are my weakness. He thought I was kidding. I thought I would have more willpower than I showed.
Snack: I'm home now and will have some sort of fruit.
I did consume at least one cup of green tea and four glasses of water.
I was running around doing housework and grocery shopping all afternoon. In the evening I had to go one hour out of town.
Breakfast: one banana; two cups of tea... I was quite bloated all morning and didn't have an appetite. I think it had to do with those chips.They made me feel awful. No more! Good lesson to learn.
Lunch: peanut butter sandwich; bar; one cup of tea with milk
Supper; bowl of lentils and gobi; bread (someone has to finish the leftovers)
Snack: dates; some jello
four glasses of water; three cups of green tea
I didn't consume all the food I was supposed to yesterday. I just had this bloated feeling that finally went away in the evening. I just had no appetite and it was hard to get all the food in. I finally made myself.
I believe that those Hickory Sticks did not agree with my system. Maybe my body is rejecting junk food?? I think a few would have been fine but I over did it.
