The contents of my kitchen:
Chicken breasts, Frozen Corn, Frozen Mixed Veggies, OJ, Apple Juice, frozen 3 oz size burgers, special k fat free waffles, skim milk, lipton ice tea (directions say to use 2/3 cup of mix with 64 fl. oz water. I only use 1/3 cup) romaine lettuce, low fat salad dressing, potatoes, ketchup, large eggs, farina (cream ofwheat), granola, oatmeal, canned peas, canned corn, ramen noodles,whole wheat pasta, regular pasta, stuffing mix, whole grain boil-in-a-bag rice, white rice, fruit cocktail in light syrup, canned peaches, low fat graham crackers, honey nut cheerios, bananas, canned chunk light albacore, canned chicken (98% fat free), fat free mayo, pam, low fat peanut butter, jelly, whole wheat bread, broccoli.
I am 5'7 and I weight 208 lbs. My boyfriend (we live together) is 5'6 200 lbs. About five months ago we were going to the gym daily, eating Atkins style. I was 185 lbs at my lowest and he was about 180 lbs. When we moved in together and started school again we dropped the gym and stopped eating Aktins. I don't really see anything unhealthy or wrong about the food I am eating.....I do not work out so I guess it is good that I havent gained MORE than I have already. We are re-joining the gym this Friday and I am prepared to workout an hour a day 5 days a week and eat fruit, veggies, chicken, tuna and whole grains only. Hopefully I will be restored to my previous size 14 (not the 18 I am now) and possibly lower! I really hope I can do this. and that we can do it together.
Today I ate:
Breakfast: Farina, coffee with milk and 2 tsp sugar
snack: 1 cup of cereal with 1% milk
Lunch: 1 cup of clam chowder, side salad with low fat dressing, 1 roll, soda (eek!)
Dinner: whole wheat pasta with homemade sauce (have to get the bad food out of the fridge before friday!)
snack: 1 cup of fruit cocktail
Bad stuff is in BOLD

Clearing the "bad stuff" out of the kitchen doesn't mean it has to go into your stomach. My mother-in-law used to say, "Don't make a garbage pail out of your stomach." Which is funny because she'd eat everyone elses left-overs!
Just kidding about this. Glad you're off to a good start. Make the gym workouts easy to start and you'll enjoy it and keep it up!
