What Are You Eating Today ?

I have been struggling very badly for about a month now and I thought maybe coming in here and doing this thread will help me get back on track (keeping fingers crossed I'm so depressed and frustrated right now *sigh*), and maybe it will help the new ones to see what we are eating to :o)

Breakfast  2 eggs with 2 tablespoons of milk and 1/4 cup of Colby jack cheese melted .

Lunch      Chicken breast with 1/2 cup of steamer veggies (carrots, broccoli, and cauliflower)

Dinner     chicken thigh with a light coating of Italian bread crumbs and 1/2 cup of steamer veggies again .


Exercise   a hr of Zumba with toning and weights included

Snack -- I need to go to the store and pick me up some fruit I have none around here . Probably Cantaloupe .

My food intake probably looks enormous compared to yours, but I'm in maintenance not weight loss mode. I like to share what my maintenance eating looks like so newbies can see that success with the band does not involve a lifetime of deprivation!

I wanted to add for my snack I had a cup and half of salad with two tablespoons of colby cheese and 2 tablespoons of FF Raspberry Vinaigrette.

That is the first time I have had this dressing and boy that was very tasty . Think I will have to include a salad with my dinner tonight after Zumba .

 I am getting back on track after a week and a half of some crazy eating.  But here it goes:

B; scrambled egg with melted jalapano cheddar cheese and scoop of refried beans and salsa

L: not sure at this point but I just bought some strawberries and grapes, maybe some almonds

D: chicken breast stuffed with keifer cheese and jalapaneos and melted hot pepper cheese

S: probably two skinney cow deserts, maybe and ice cream sandwich and ice cream bar


Workout: worked out hard for a hour this morning (kinda like a boot camp) and this evening I am going back for a hour of dance class, more for fun but hope to burn a few extra calories :)

JJ your chicken breast sounds really good. I like Pepper Jack Cheese also.  I will have to try that that sounds yummy :o)
