Good morning!
Alright, I am starting today with three grains! Last night was the turning point, when I realized for the past couple days I actually have been a little hungry--and I usually am never hungry doing this. I had a run-in with my *sugar free ice cream in the back of the freezer for emergencies*. Three grains, 2 fruits, 4.5 veggies, and a partrige in a pear tree.
Cassie--I'm not sure about the sleeping thing, but because of the diet I do pretty much pop out of bed now..but not at 5am I must admit!
Breakfast- kashi cereal w/ milk and 1/2 cup blueberries, V8
Snack- nectarine w/ mozz stick
Lunch-Chili over lettuce w/ 1/4 cup cheese and some flax wholegrain bread
Snack- 6 triscuits w/ hummus
Snack-broccoli w/ sf ketchup
Dinner-Probably leftover spaghetti squash and fish with a salad, glass of milk
Hope that looks about right...have a great day everyone!

Stephanie, I'm glad you had fun at the wedding. 5 1/2 hours of dancing is serious exercise! Sounds like a blast!
I, too, went back to P1 a while back after stalling for 4 months and I ended up losing 2 lbs. in a matter of days. I think my body needed the shake-up of things to get me back on track. I was soooooo happy to be back on P2 though. I can totally live without grains, but I missed my fruit like crazy. I'm glad that tactic also worked for you!
We both have about 5 lbs. to go...

I definately need to get into a better eating pattern now that school has started. I've been eating breakfast at 5:30, lunch at 10:00 (which is my off period and the only chance I have to eat), and then I'm starving when I get home at 5:30. My family eats dinner at 7:30 or 8:00, so in general my eating schedule is weird. I'm going to try to cut out a morning snack and add two snacks in the afternoon instead so I don't come to dinner starving and then overeat.
Today:
B: 1 kashi waffle, 1 c. honeydew with a few spoonfulls of yogurt (all we had left).
S: none
L: 1/2 7grain pita, 2 slices deli turkey breast, 1 tsp lf mayo.
S: apple with 1 tbsp almond butter, diet pepsi
D: Salmon, big salad dressed with flax seed oil and BV, grilled veggies.
I didn't get my dairy in today because I'm feeling sick and milk just makes me feel more congested, and we ran out of yogurt.
Have a great night!

Stephanie, it sounds like we're both on the right track. I also do lots of weight training and work with a trainer (who tells me I most likely will NOT see 125 lbs. as long as I'm weight training as much as I do), so I also wonder if 125 lbs. is unrealistic for me. I like how I look and I love my size 4-6's so I'm okay with that as long as I keep toning up. I'm just going to keep on truckin' and see where I can go.
Keep up the great work. Your salmon dinner sounds fab!
