See, when I fall off the wagon for a couple of days, I don't post. Well, I fell off the wagon for two whole days and gained back 5lbs. AAAAARRRRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!! Do you know how long it took me to lose those five pounds...oh yeah if you follow my blog you do. Well, that does it I am so not doing that again.
My new favorite low calorie snack is celery (wait for it) with Lite (that is their spelling not mine) Laughing Cow (TM) garlic and herb cheese on it. It is like stuffed celery but only like 70 calories for a huge plate of it. Yippeee!!!!!! I love it and it is filling, there must be something I am missing here. Then again I love pink grapefruit and that isn't bad for me either....then there is my obsession with Fiber One (tm) cereal and strawberries. It may even be better with blueberries but those are rarely as cheap as strawberries so, there is no such thing as settling where berries are concerned I love them all.
I made a killer tuna salad for lunches this week and am so on track it is scary. It is rainy right now so no pool tonight but I am going tomorrow morning before work and I will go do my Ab Roller(tm) thingy now.
We can do this!!!! It isn't as hard as we are making it. Especially with how good lowfat guilt free stuff is now.
By the way, I did 20 on my Ab Roller(tm) thingy. The most I have done yet but it killed my chest muscles.

I said "no thank you" to cake
Yesterday we had a Father's Day/Birthdays get together at my sister-in-law's and I stayed on track. I didn't even have a roll with my Chicken patty. I had a chicken patty, coleslaw, and fruit salad and some celery. I feel really good about my choices. I need to get in some exercise today and my friend Dee Dee is supposed to be coming over to teach me some water aerobics to use in my pool but it is kind of overcast so I am not sure if they will open the pool. We shall see.
Stay on track, if I can anyone can.

cabbage is a free food????
I am not sure if I trust this but, 1 cup of dry shredded cabbage only has 20 calories so...it would kind of make sense that it would take more energy to digest such a fiberous food than that. Also Walden Farms(tm) has a Coleslaw dressing that is calorie free. (don't ask how they do it I don't know and I am not sure that I want to know) so I could have 1 cup of coleslaw and not count it towards my calories. Much more appealing than 6 dill pickle spears. Although those are great too. Also 1/2 cucumber has only 15 calories and celery 8 calories per stalk, that combined with the no calorie Walden Farms(tm) ranch dip I ordered makes for one very full yet sticking to my calories for the day woman.
Today is fairly nice and I should head over to the pool but I don't feel like it....arrrgh will she or won't she.......
Drumroll please........
She did. I made myself go over to the pool and swam for about 10 mins straight. Only stopping for a few seconds at a time to catch my breath, so that is my exercise for today except I might ab roll later because it is a "cheat" day of sorts. (we are going for barbecue tonight).

Feeling better but...
I am trying to find more foods that have "negative" calories or "free" foods. That way I can supplement my diet with more stuff to fill me up and yet not adding extra calories. I guess I could just eat sawdust but really who thinks that is a good idea?
So far I checked Google(tm) and am not sure I trust the list I got, apricots are a free food? I find that hard to believe, also plums, peaches, and blackberries. This seems too good to be true. I will have to do some further research.

Still light headed and kinda oogey
Yes, oogey is an adjective to describe nausea. I don't know what my problem is, a woman at work thinks it is my thyroid; another one thinks I am pregnant and Greg is still certain that I am just not getting enough calories. I don't think that is it but I may not be eating enough. You can get a ton of calories and still not be eating enough. If I had 30 Oreos(tm) tomorrow I would be having plenty of calories but I would probably feel kinda faint at some point. The weird part is I am not hungry. I mean I am at meal time but it isn't like I am ravenous all day or anything.
This morning I had a grapefruit and two light string cheese for breakfast, then a 1/3cup homemade trail mix for a snack, then a chicken broccoli and cheese Lean Pocket(tm), and a baked potato for lunch and a 6" Veggie delight (tm) sub for dinner. That seems like plenty to me. What is the deal here?
