TGIF! Friday Phase 2 Check In!
13
Fri, 05-13-2005 - 10:21am

Well I'm here early again - going to be a busy day! Today was weigh in and my weight not only stayed at 149.5 - it was actually down to 149! So its "official" now LOL! And I like those round numbers much better :-)

Today I'm going out to dinner with friends I haven't seen in awhile, so I'm off it buy a new outfit! I haven't bought any pants or skirts yet (the last ones I have are a 14, and I am now mostly wearing a 10) All I've bought are shorts and really casual stuff - so I'm off to look for some capris for tonight (not easy when you are 5'3", most come to my ankles and just look like I shrunk regular pants!) or maybe a skirt.

Today:
breakfast - Kashi waffle, 2 pieces turkey bacon
snack - soy shake w/ banana, string cheese
lunch - left over pork roast, green beans
snack - Triscuits and sliced turkey
dinner - out! Not sure - Mexican restaurant, so probably fajitas (no tortilla) or maybe some seafood
desert - probably none really, I'll probably have a glass or two of wine or a martini after dinner instead

MichaelAnn, congratulations on the "official" loss! That's fantastic!!!

I'm also 5'3" so I know the difficulty in finding capris that look right. I buy a lot of stuff at Ann Taylor Loft-- do you have those around you? They have a really good petite section with cute and casual, but not too casual, stuff. I also like Nordstrom's petite section-- great stuff!

Good luck finding something cute and have fun tonight!!!

Congratulations MichaelAnn on your official drop! I have the opposite problem with capris (I'm 5'8") - they're all too short. I always look like I have coolots (sp?) on! I'm bloated like no one would beleive today but it's a great day nonetheless. I just bought a plane ticket to NC to visit my best girlfriends! I'm so excited!

Anyhow, here is what I have for today:

B: Oatmeal w/ 3/4c skim milk, small banana, 1tbsp peanut butter
S: None
L: Subway wrap with ham and turkey, lettuce, cucumbers, pickles, olives, jalapeno peppers, some chipotle mayo
S: Plain FF yogurt with apricot preserves (or more peanut butter)
D: Veggie burger w/ some kind of veggie
S: Fudgesicle

Hope everyone has a great day!

You'll be there soon Maryann!! Just hang in there!

Seafood Gumbo sounds good - do you make your own? My dh's grandma used to make it alot (she was from Louisiana) I haven't had it since she passed away...if you make it, would you share your recipe?
