Eater's Remorse
We are having a party at work and this is all I can eat!
EDIT: This plate of generic brand pickles and cheese was totally unappetizing. It is bad that I even got the plate, since breakfast was only a few hours ago. I ate one cheesecube and half a pickle, regained my senses, and threw the plate in the trash.

Anyway, this cappucino was made with reduced fat milk, a splash of half and half, Splenda, and expresso. Topped with nutmeg.

This was delicious

This was two potatoes, boiled and then smashed on a baking sheet, drizzled with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and a tiny bit of shredded cheese. Then I topped it with sauteed chicken and green onions. More than half of it is still in the fridge, which I will eat later today. Yum.
As you can see from looking at the pictures, I am eating a lot of starchy foods and stuff that probably isn't that good for me. I should eat more veggies. A lot more veggies, honestly. But still, I am pleased to say that as of this morning, I am 16.8lbs lighter than I was when I started this journal.
A Tiny Snack
At this point I hadn't eaten in about nine hours and dude, I was hungry and couldn't wait another hour for my dinner to finish.

Raw Food Alert.
Most of this didn't end up being edible, unfortunately. I ended up throwing pretty much all of the meat out. It was sad. Very sad. But raw. Very raw.
What I packed...
It should be noted that I didn't eat all of this at once. I grazed a little, which I have been trying not to do, but I am updating this about three days later now and there is still half of that sitting on my desk at work.

This was SO good.
These strawberries were liberally sprinkled with Splenda and left in the fridge for a few hours. The cream was whipped by hand with lemon extract and Splenda. It was SUCH a good treat. It was so satisfying. Mike had thirds! I'm proud to say I only ate what is pictured, but damn, it was freakin' awesome.
Mike ate most of it
My elderly neighbor picked these blueberries for me from the bushes in our front yard. How sweet! When I ate them the other night, though, they literally went right through me. Undigested, from the looks of it.

Leftovers for Dinner
Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T
Leftovers from dinner last night, with a glass of diet Canada Dry.
Also, I forgot to take my Blackberry to work with me today, so I didn't get pictures of the other foods that I ate:
one cup of coffee with cream and real sugar, because I am out of Splenda
one small tupperware thing of banana chips
one medium tupperware thing of veggie chips
one applesauce

Yummy
Rice fettuccine, tomato sauce (eggplant and garlic flavor), plus chicken sauteed in olive oil and way too much delicious garlic. I love crunchy garlic.
