I did great y'day. I'm tracking my foods for now at http://www.sparkpeople.com just to get an idea of my cals. I'm going to try out the zig-zagging thing to see if it helps. Although w/ being sick I dropped a few lbs anyway! (and trying to keep them from coming back!! 
) I tend to get a bit OCD about things like that, so I just do it for a bit to see if I'm doing as well as I think then I have to chill out!
Today might be hard though w/ my dd's at home for as now day. And they want to bake Valentine goodies. At least no worries, they'll lick the spoons & bowl! ;-) (and I'll be chewing gum!)
So far I've just had 20 oz water & a cup of coffee. Off to make breakfast in a few!

Looks good, Christine! I love taco salad, it's one of my diet staples too! I usually have mine w/ black beans & gotta have the avocado too! I looove avocado. Care to share you healthy mac & cheese recipe?? I haven't had it in years, back to the days when I'd make some for my dd's & finish off the box.

NO CHIPS NO CHOCOLATE NO SKINNY COW ICE CREAM
LOL – Doing great here too. I always get in enough water. I can’t go very long without a drink of it, so I carry water everywhere!
Feeling woozy this morning so I just had some coffee and toast. I’ll see what happens later but I plan on this:
Lunch – mixed greens, red bell, green onions, tomato, salad bean mix tossed with a bit of balsamic vinaigrette wrapped in a yummo flat out bread. Red pear sliced. No sodium club soda.
Snack – fruit/protein/ff yogurt smoothie (after workout)
Dinner – veggie pizza made with Flat Out bread. Soooooo delicious not even the fat and calories of regular pizza. Veggies will be zucchini, tomato, red onion, roasted red pepper.
Today I may steam some apple slices with cinnamon to have a chilled treat for later this evening.
Good job ladies, checking in here with ya’ll is inspiring and helps keep me on track.

I will check- in later and report what else I had.

I'm joining in I'm pretty sure my cake hole is shut for the night so I'd say it's been a very good day! I impressed myself today, I baked some goodies for my Girlies and didn't lick a spoon, spatula, bowl, NOTHING!:7
B: Coffee and banana
Post workout: Apple flaxseed/bran muffin and a clementine
L: Open faced chicken sandwich with light cream cheese, pesto and tomato, half a red pepper. Yogurt and 10 almonds
S: Spicy tomato cabbage and a clementine
D: Spiced couscous with basil and tomato/chick pea curry stew with tomato, mint and onion. A teensy weensy piece of PB rice crispie squares with chocolate/PB icing. Skim milk
I've been in a major cooking mode lately, everything I had today was homemade and I feel really good about that!
I need to get more water into me. I don't feel dehydrated but my skin tells me different.
