Thanks BB and SSMOKINHOT for the advice. I do eat a lot of chicken. Only 1% milk etc. I go out to eat once a week (my cheat day to keep me sane). etc. I was doing pretty good but I hit a plateau... Plus my exercise was put on hold until the power supply for my bike came in. 4DD batteries every week got expensive! I am determined this time I am surprised I only gained back 5 pounds over the holidays, but I made sure to get the lite foods. I'm also weird in that I am not a candy freak, I don't love chocolate like most people do my friends think I am weird because of it.
My biggest problem is that I eat once maybe twice a day. I really need to eat smaller more frequent meals. It is difficult with my sometimes chaotic schedule. Sometimes I will be out measring a site and be there for 6-8 hours and by the time I am done I am starving and thirsty, even though I still eat the right foods, my body has gone into survival mode so I store all the calories I eat when I do eat. My buddy tells me his is probably the one thing that is holding me back, that and exercise. I have moved my bike to in front of the TV BB lol it does help, I hardly watch TV though haaa. If I could find a way to mount my laptop on the handle bars I might be in business. LMAO

Thanks for the calorie chart CFD and the motivation Bonnie.

Thanks everyone else for all your input!
I cook all my meals on sunday then portion them in baggies... that way I am never tempted with fast food, Its the only way I am able to stay on track, I also get a cheat meal once a week on saturdays, and yes it gives me something to look forward to and keeps me very discipined thoughout the week!
