I was concerned about the number of carbs showing in my soup yesterday. I went back to my recipe and fitness pal was wrong. It was almost double what I actually ate. So I have now added in the corrected recipe for next time. I do not have enough calories or protein in my menu. I will have to add something probably to my dinner but not sure what right now. I think I may got to the store at lunch and get some cheese to add to my afternoon snack to bring up the protein. I guess this is why making a menu is important to make sure I am getting all the protein I need

I am down 2.5 lbs so the going back to basics is working. I know so far it is mostly water weight but I will take it. It encourages me to continue.

No exercise today except some walking.

b greek yogurt, blueberries

l chili, sf chocolate pudding

s apple

d chicken, salad

s laughing cow, breton crackers

cal 787, carb 95, fatr 20 prot 55

Congrats on the lose Pat. Long may it continue. I'm trying not to get derailed either. So far so good, lets see how the rest of the week holds. I noticed that MFP can be way wrong sometimes. I always scan or enter the nutrients manually when making a recipe first time.

B - coffee 5% cream, 2 boiled eggs

S - 1/2 cup 1% milk

L - 2oz pork ribs, 1/3 cup green beans, 1/3 cup rice

S - 3oz salmon

D - 2oz braised koren ribs, 1/3 cup mustard greens, 1/4 cup corm meal

S - something protein 

Have a great day all, Nia.

Good evening everyone.  Pat your menu looks good, congratulations on your loss.  I find eating more protein and lower carbs really helps with cravings as long as I stick with it.  Had a good eating day today except for some diet pepsi, not the greatest.  So happy to be done my exam so I can relax again, and its always easier to stay on track with my eating when I am not super stressed.  I bought a new protini snack the other day, it was cheddar cheese, turkey deli meat, and 4 crackers.  I really like the protein to cracker ratio, only 5g carbs and 10g protein per container.  http://www.protinis.ca/en/product.html

I was really stressed yesterday and found the same thing. Looking for something to make it better. The odd diet pepsi I am sure won't due to much harm. Hope the exam went well

The exam went ok but I will have to redo it to get the level I am aiming for.  Missed it by 2 points! Doh!  Almost there!
