Breakfast - One of those not so great muffins and a glass of ginger ale. Will be glad when my infection is gone and I can get off the ginger ale again.
Exercise - 24:01. Still looking to up my distance soon.
Lunch - Made a sandwich out of some whole wheat bread and a piece of left over salmon from last night. Having a plum with it.
Dinner - As usual, dad made one of his supposedly healthy meals that really aren't all that healthy. Pan fried meatballs in cornstarch gravy with box potatoes and canned green beans. Kept my portions as small as possible. Best I can do on his nights to cook.
Nighttime Snack - Think I'll have a bag of popcorn later since I really didn't get much dinner.

Today's Update...
Breakfast - Tried a recipe for Zucchini Bran Muffins. Pretty much a doctored box mix thing from Sandra Lee of the Food Network. They're kinda heavy and too many flavors competing for my taste. I'll eat them, but probably won't make them ever again.
Exercise - 24:01. Once again my mile felt really good. Thinking of walking further starting next week.
Lunch - Had a sandwich and a plum. Unfortunately the only lunch meat we had was salami. Only used 2 slices.
Dinner - Grilled Salmon, Butternut Squash Risotto & a frozen veggie mix.

Yesterday's Update...
My apologies once again. Never made it back online after dinner so ended up forgetting to post.
Breakfast - My low cal coffee cake and a glass of ginger ale.
Exercise - 24:02. Felt really good for the first time in about a week.
Lunch - Turkey Sandwich.
Dinner - Tried a new recipe. Swordfish with Mediterranean Flavors and Risotto on the side. The fish was good, the 'Mediterranean Flavors' weren't. Artichoke was either under ripe or too old, not sure, and I found out I really don't like Olives. Risotto was okay.
Snack - Had a mini bag of smart pop popcorn.

Daily Update...
Breakfast - Last night I made a low cal mixed berry coffee cake. Had a slice of that and a glass of ginger ale for breakfast.
Exercise - 24:01 for my walk today. Still not pushing myself as hard as I had been, but at least I got through the whole mile today. Couple days and hopefully I'll be back to the normal routine.
Lunch - Quick sandwich when I got back from the doctor's office.
Dinner - Left over Chicken Jalousie from last week as well as a mix of brocoli and cauliflower.
Nighttime Snack - Think I'll have a plum and call that it.

Health Update...
So I got into my doctor's office today. Seems my nausea has been caused by a sinus/bronchial infection that's been agitated by having milk in the morning. So I'm off milk for a few days, have some antibiotics and sinus meds to take and hopefully then I'll be able to go back to normal.
I went without milk this morning and already saw a bit of a difference. Was able to fully get through my walk today with out the gagging or just feeling out right horrible.

Yesterday's Update...
My apologies for the lateness of this post but I was barely on the computer at all yesterday. Spent most of the day either grocery shopping, watching the end of the Olympics or working on a new jigsaw puzzle with my husband.
Breakfast - In an effort to have less milk in the morning and not having much in the house due to the need for a grocery run, I had scrambled eggs and toast for breakfast along with 1 glass of ginger ale. Tummy still felt rather icky but not as bad as it has been.
Exercise - 24:03. Made it through my mile. After the last few days I felt really good about that.
Lunch - I kind of forgot about lunch due to running errands, but once I got home I had a yogurt, a clementine and a banana to hold me over until dinner.
Dinner - Dad's night to cook which meant his Sunday night pot roast with potatoes. Instead of doing a full gravy he did a brown sauce. I kept my proportions small, got rid of as much fat from the meat, and took very little of the brown sauce. Just enough to moisten my potatoes so they were edible. Not what I would have chosen for dinner, but then it wasn't my night to cook so I made the best of the situation.
Nighttime Snack - Had some popcorn during the closing ceremonies of the Olympics. But then Hubby had to pull out the prosciutto and that made me want some. Instead I had a Popsicle so that I was having something but yet not something I probably shouldn't.
