Meals/snacks

You may notice that I don't eat 100% protein like I'm supposed to.  I have had a problem with that.  For breakfast I usually do yogurt because I never get up on time to cook eggs.  When I'm home I try to cook an egg and since I like mine really done I put one spoon of my girls' grits on top to make it moister.

For lunch, I've done different things.  Today I had 1/3 of a Boston Market meatloaf frozen dinner.  Yesterday I did a with 1/2 a flatout, deli roast beef, and dill pickle.  Yummy and does well if you chew!  That was my problem!  I do a lot of soups and beans. 

For dinner it's whatever hubbie's fixing usually.  Tonight, turkey.  Last night, boiled shrimp. 

Snacks is a problem for me too.  I ate almonds on the way to piano lessons today.  I try to do cottage cheese but it's just not a favorite but I try to make myself eat it because of the protein.  Before I loved cream cheese and olive sandwiches so I might make up some and that and do on a few crackers.  I found no sugar added fudgesicles so I end my day with one of those.  Perfect ending.

Karen,
I tried chicken linguini alfredo the other day. The chicken was my main focus because it was so moist and tender. However, I did eat several strands of pasta and before I knew it I was in pain!!! I think the pasta suddenly expanded in my belly. Wasn't a good idea! I tend to learn the hard way. My doc didn't recommend no carbs/starches only to put protein first!! If I have carbs I usually have fruit, veggies, etc. Breads tend to cause me pain right after I take a bite but something hard like a crouton or two on my salad don't bother me.

Your weight loss looks great. Congrats!!!
