Sooo...

Sooo... apparently the bread isn't hurting me because I briefly saw 198.5 on the scale.  My scale doesn't do tenths, only halves, so that means I am in between 198.5 and 199.  I am pretty ok with that!  I am under 200 and apparently bread isn't having a negative effect.  I am eating pretty good and most of all, I am TRYING to eat balanced with 3 meals and 1 or 2 snacks.  I've not wanted dessert much.  Just been too full!  So, I didn't have it one night.  :)  Although, I DID end up eating two clementines last night...  I felt snacky and didn't want to go to bed hungry.  Which means my cals the last two days were closer to 1400-1500 instead of the 1600.  Never thought I would be the sort to pass up dessert anytime!  LOL  But if I'm full, I'm not going to eat it.  Now I wonder, what will tomorrow's weigh-in be?  Sunday is my official day.  I only got on this AM because the hubby was up and I had the time to linger a bit in the bathroom.  But whatever is there tomorrow will be my 'official' weight, I guess.  Maybe I'll actually be 198.5!  That's not a huge loss, but after the wedding weekend last weekend and all that travel and stress... well, I'll take what I can get at this point.

One good thing I just realized from re-reading that last paragraph is that my cravings have been more 'normal'.  I don't have any cravings to eat a whole cake or anything.  I had this once before when I was in the 'zone'.  Not sure if that is what is going on now or if it's just well, I KNOW I can have a small bit of it so it's no longer a temptation.  It's got to be all mental.  That or the quality of the food isn't making me crave junk.  Not sure.  But I like it!  Makes things smoother.  And I have to admit, having the freedom to have whatever and just watch my portions is awesome!

Breakfast:  2 slices LCWB with SB butter and RS jelly, 1egg, 1 sausage patty; coffee  (I tried to talk myself into veggies, but after that big bowl of veggie soup last night, I just couldn't do it!)

Lunch:  LARGE spinach salad with onions and tomatoes, 2tbsps. bleu cheese dressing, a drizzle of balsamic vin, a little over one slice of cajun roast beef; water

Snack:  Whole round of watermelon

Dinner:  Bowl of Kashi cereal (about one cup), 1/2c whole milk, blueberries; water

Dessert:  3 vanilla sandwich cookies; hot tea with Splenda/Sweetleaf

I know -- cereal for dinner?  YUP.  That's what sounded good, so that's what I had.  Also had dessert.  Still eating the last cookie and drinking my tea right now.  Ahhh!  Sorta relaxing, ya know?  However, nervous about tomorrow.  Worried I'll be back up over 200.  BLEH.  I wish I could stop worrying but my brain niggles at me and gets on my nerves!  Especially since on a day like this where I wanted a completely different meal after breakfast.  I don't know why that huge salad sounded so good, but it was EXACTLY what I wanted.  And well, watermelon... YUM.  Overall, the food today was nummy and exactly what I wanted.  Tomorrow, I'm thinking pizza.  Not sure if we could make our own or if we will eat out.  Or maybe we will do breakfast out instead of dinner... I guess we will see.

Well, not going to keep running on and on tonight.  I am tired and should head to bed.  Especially since I really have nothing stellar to talk about.  G'night!
