Whatcha Eating Today VSGers? Saturday 8/19/17

Good morning everyone!

QOTD-I miss Pepperidge Farm's Lemon cake with DQ vanilla ice cream and Cajun shrimp pasta. Cake, ice cream and pasta were my go to comfort foods for a lot of years. I admit I do miss them, sometimes a lot:-) I am not at goal, but I do allow myself to have the short season, local foods such as peaches, cherries and sweet corn in moderation and try to adjust it on MFP. I am not meeting my protein goal, it's more than likely due to the wonderful produce!

B-Chia, flax & pumpkin seed porridge

L-Vanilla protein shake

S-String cheese and 2 Dukes sausage links

D-Leftover zucchini/egg cakes and 1 small peach

E-60 minute walk with Emmy

I miss pasta too... It was one of my go-to eating alone binge foods. I don't even want to contemplate how many calories of pasta I've eaten in my lifetime.

For me Cecily, it would be a lot!!!!

Good afternoon,

My day isn't going well at all. Someone calls at 5:50 am. My friend is always in a hurry when I tell her I'll take her somewhere. She comes over and I'm not ready for the day or had breakfast so I feel rushed.

Little awhile ago, I dropped my crystal light all over the kitchen floor.

Qotd pasta especially macaroni and cheese.

B ham and cheese omelette and string cheese

L tuna and cottage cheese

D sirloin pork chop and asparagus

S hot dogs and watermelon

Have a good day

Coffee- perfect! Dragonfly in Amber- MORE THAN PERFECT!

QOTD: I can't say there is any food I miss now. I allow myself gelato (too much), and I just added back Creamy PB & Nutella. I'm working with my trainer to try to find a maintenance/happy medium between being a slave to 14 hours of exercise a week and a limited diet, to something worth living & how to maintain both in moderation & enjoy life.

am: fairlife in Cafe

Br: sausage & lg egg

S: PP

D: chicken & asparagus

water & vites

Snoozy Saturday

Ugh, that whole "moderation" thing for us. It's hard to comprehend and even harder to actually allow ourselves in any capacity without it taking over, right? That's why I listed my few bites of cupcake as a NSV!

It's a shame you don't have any books to read, Rachel! lol

I'm constantly listening to books!! I'm listening to The Girl in the Spiders Web right now. It's a continuation of the Mellinium Series. The author had truly done Stieg Larsson justice! His next book comes out in September.

I'm hooked on audio books as well! I always have one queued up on my computer, and listen a while before bed every night as my wind-down time. Love them!!

I'm just chilling today, so no big plans after trip and big day in St Louis yesterday. Got up late so only 2 real meals today, with a snack between.

QOTD: The thing I miss most is coffee. I still drink it, but it doesn't taste the way it used to since my taste buds are all screwed up after surgery. I miss how much pleasure I used to get out of my coffee. Now, it tastes okay, but it's not the transcendental experience for me that it used to be. I hope I get that back someday. * sighs *

B: Dannon L&F 80 w/Fiber One, coffee w/H&H and xylitol

S: Ham

D: Italian sausage and smoked pulled pork, baby leaf lettuce w/avocado ranch dressing

Water and vites on track

E: Nope

My Saturday...my "meh" coffee, and catching up on OH!
