Day 5

Yeah, I sucked. No other way to put it. Weekends are always the worst for me. I cleaned the house and started cleaning up the Christmas Candy. Luckily, there wasn't much left. Just the 3 musketeers. I actually had gathered it up to take it to work, but it ended up that I gathered it up to eat it.

I did manage to play on the wii tonight. I counted it as exercise! LOL! It sure seems like it when you're doing it! I also used the stationary bike...with some encouragement from Little Jillian. She has informed me that I'll be doing jumping jacks tomorrow. She said something about pushups. I told her that I was wayyy too old to be doing pushups. Apparently, she doesn't believe that. She's going to end up killing me.

Anyway, here's the damage:

Day 4

Today was a test of sorts. Little Jillian had a ball game. I wondered if I would be able to stay within my caloric range. I DID! YIPPEE! I passed my test. Here's the little ball player now....


Little Jillian wasn't able to nag at me. That worked out pretty well. I had already walked on the treadmill at work, so it was okay with her that I didn't work on the stationary bike! She's something! And, she did a fantastic job with her ball team. They didn't win but she was a good sport, which is more important!

Here's the damage for today:

Day 3

I logged into sparkpeople.com and got a surprise. My caloric intake has been a maximum of 1990 for months. Today I logged in and my caloric intake has been reduced to a maximum of 1810. I'm not sure how that happened. Especially since I had put in my real weight. It's higher than the weight I had in there. Oh well. Either way, I went over the number of calories that I should have had - I blame the 2 twizzler twists that I had.

Day 2

Well, Day 2 went well considering that the monster (now known as 'Little Jillian') was being egged on by her father. She is still graphing my food. I think I might be afraid of a 9-year-old! (LOL...well, mostly!)

My boss was kind enough to bring his treadmill to our office. I used it at break time today. Wow! I really am out of shape...shhh...don't tell Little Jillian....she'll have me running cross country!

Anyway, here are the numbers for TUESDAY...Day 2 of accountability!

Day 1 Cont....

Well, I'm pretty sure that I created a monster. Her name is Jackie. Jackie is becoming Jillian-like in her quest to help her Mommy lose weight. She nagged at me until I rode the stationary bike for 30 minutes on Sunday night. I balked last night. My personal trainer only got 15 minutes out of me last night. She did, however, get her Daddy to play the Wii. This is pretty amazing considering we can NEVER get him to play on the Wii. Granted, it was Golf but at least he wasn't watching tv.

Jackie was also kind enough to make a graph for me. The graph showed me where I did good and where I messed up. I wonder why Daddy didn't get a graph?

Day 1

Well, my first day of accountability went well. EXCEPT for having to get on the scale in front of Tonja. That sucked. I didn't realize that I weighed so much. I'd post the number here, but I'm not quite ready for that! As far as calories are concerned, I stayed under (barely).

Anyway, here's the breakdown:

Breakfast
	Calories	Protein	Carbohydrates	Fat

Random Thoughts...

My caloric intake (according to sparkpeople.com) is going to have to be between 1640 - 1990. I'll also be tracking my protein, carb and fat intake. I am a huge carb-O-holic. So tracking my carbs should = fun. Before the lap-band, my entire diet was based on carbs. I loved rolls, pasta (of any type) and naturally pizza. I was forced to change my diet with the band - I do eat a lot more protein - mostly in the form of steak.

Have I mentioned that I love sugar? Sugar is so addictive. At least, it is to me. How do I cut it out? It's in LITERALLY everything.
