Whatcha eating today? Monday, 11/28/2016

I'm glad you had a good holiday Gwen! Even if you were faking it. :-) 

Mine was pretty good too. A lot of quality family time, some fun times with friends too.  I ate too much and too many carbs, but I didn't weigh myself today so I'm not sure of the damage yet. One positive thing, I was able to refrain from much snacking. I primarily stuck to three meals a day. 

This morning I wasn't feeling great. I don't know if it was vitamins on an empty stomach or what, but my belly really hurt. Feeling a little better now. Best part of today is only 15 days left of the semester then I get over two whole weeks to work with my husband and spend time with my children!

B: cheese and crackers

L: Thanksgiving leftovers...turkey, gravy, a little corn and a little stuffing

D: something with beef per my husband who is tired of turkey

Hi menu gang, 

I had a good thanksgiving with my family but I missed the turkey and pumpkin pie. They had chicken. Ill have to make my own turkey and pumpkin pie.

B egg whites ham and cheese omelet and string cheese 

L cheeseburger 

D pork loin and asparagus 

S Greek yogurt,  turkey sausage snack sticks and cutie orange 

Have a good day 

Hi Gwen and All,

I am so touched by your wonderful thanksgiving story.  How special that you and your mom went climbing together!  That is just outstanding.  We should all be so adventurous in our 70's!

I did good on my diet yesterday in spite of the cake with the thick gooey frosting sitting in front of me for hours. It was calling to me, and I didn't touch it!

So I'm committed to eating only 3 meals a day, and no carbs until the weight gets back to goal. 

Breakfast - salmon

Lunch - pesto chicken and parmesan cheese, maybe with a little sweet potato casserole.

Dinner - chicken fried rice (with riced cauliflower)

Happy Monday everyone.  I hope you are all well and happy.

B: fat free vanilla greek yogurt mixed with 2TBSP of granola

L: lean turkey pepperoni, fresh mozzarella, grapes

D: chilli topped with shredded cheese and sf pudding 

S: 2x iced soy coffees with sf vanilla, clementine, protein bar

OH!  Granola sounds good.  I think I have some pecans in the cupboard...

Yeah i like to put 1-2 tbsp of granola in my ff greek yogurt because it feels like a dessert epecially when you put it with strawberry greek yogurt! I like the crunch it gives you but I would be careful with the carbs - I am over 2 years out and have like 15-20 more pounds to go which is why I allow myself some (limited) carbs here and there :)

B: 10 pecans and 1 container Chobani key lime Greek yogurt

L: Salad, consisting of 2 cups mixed lettuce and spinach, with 1T avocado, and 2T fixings: a mix of homemade dehydrated tomatoes, corn, red peppers, cucumbers, and pumpkin seeds from my garden; + 1T Panera poppy seed dressing.

D: homemade beef stirfry with zucchini and whatever other veggies I find in the fridge

At work Snack: homemade dehydrated apple chips

Bedtime chocolate: 2 squares  (okay, my weakness!)

I feel a did well on thanksgiving being that I'm just under 3 months out. Focused on protein and skipped the rolls and dessert. Although I didn't get much exercise in since Tuesday, I did walk off and on throughout the long weekend. Have my 3 month check up Friday. 

b: 2 eggs scrambled with a little cheese, coffee

S: 1.8 ounces deli ham rolled up with a little bit of whipped cream cheese 

L: 3 ounces chicken

S: 6 cheese cubes and 1/4 cup cashews

D: either pizza Casserole or 5 bean soup. 

S: protein shake if needed. 

Vits: done
