dye it

So pretty much every morning I have had peanut butter (pb) on something; toast, frozen waffle, english muffin or whatever. Now I knew pb has some fat in it but I really just didn't think about how much. Well I looked at the label tonight! Each serving is 180 calories and 14g of fat!!!!!!!!! YIKES. I threw it away. No way am I eating peanut butter again! (in comparison a whole can of chili has 25g of fat and your RDA of total fat is 60g)

Today and tomorrow I am on a liquid diet of Ensure with one solid meal. I'm trying to limit myself to about 1,400 calories each day. I weighed 144.2 earlier in the week and that is too much. Thankfully with some increased exercise and this quickie liquid diet I was 140.2 this morning.

This week I have also scrounged things around to make some of my meals. We had what I like to call 'spicy salad' with our ground turkey spaghetti the other night. Taking the left over shredded lettuce from chicken taco night and going through the fridge to add the other random left over veggies and such. So to the shredded lettuce added cucumber, green onion, carrot, pepperoncini and green olives. It had a very bold taste and really didn't even need dressing. Especially the next day when the lettuce had soaked all the juices up from the peppers and olives.

Tonight's solid meal was yakisoba noodles, carrot and broccoli. Yum! Oh, and water. HAHAHA.

Will this new style of eating stick? Obviously the liquid diet thing isn't for long term. And I am eating and drinking less garbage than normal. All I care about is that I look good, feel good and perform well. And that I don't weigh more than 142lbs ever.
