Hi Carla, Have a awesome time on vacation, man I need a trip somewhere, but saving my time for Christmas when we're going to FL to see my mom, will do at least 1 theme park while we're there, but its still 6 months away and won't come soon enough... You still had a good food day, so don't sigh to heavy...Talk to you when you get back...Alesia

Oh... I've been a real slacker with this.  Yesterday was a pretty good day... Breakfast:  skipped it on purpose... (trying to see if a later start will help keep the carb crave demons away!) Lunch:  AchieveOne               Deli Beef Dinner: Chicken Ceasar Salad Late Meal:  AchieveOne                     Deli Turkey Here's a shock the scale is moving again!!  HOORAY!!! Hope I can keep this up!!! Love ya! Denise

Hooray Denise, Congrats on getting that nasty ole scale to start working with you in the down direction again, doesn't it feel good...Hey just a suggestions though, don't want to sabotage anything but you might try a low cal protein drink as the breakfast substitute, that way you keep getting in protein but hopefully nothing to awaken the carb beast within ...

Did good today...Alesia

 

Hush Alesia!!!  Christmas????    Looks like everyone had a good day yesterrday.  I only ate 1/2 of a pure protein bar (only one I had left) last night for a treat and they are barred from my house until I have better control - which let's face may not be in this lifetime!!!  But at least I know my triggers and try to plan accordingly.   2 c. coffee with ff creamer B-2 egg beaters with 1 T. ff mayo on 1 slice high fiber toast, 1 cup grapes S-Nectar Twisted Cherry protein drink L- Vegetable salad with 1 oz. 2% cheddar, 3 oz. chicken, 2 T. ff french dsg       1/2 c. strawberries S- 1 c. watermelon, 1/2 c. 2% cottage cheese, 1/2 special k high protein cereal D-1 c. green beans, 1 1/2 oz. cooked wheat pasta, 3 oz. chicken S-1/2 pure protein peanut butter chocolate bar TOTALS:   Calories - 1229   Fat - 21     Carbs - 128     Protein - 142

Hello my fellow North Carolinian You did good, girl, so keep it up and don't fret about those pure protein bars, you only hear the call when they are within 1000 feet, so just stay out of that aisle in Walmart and you should be good to go ...Hey did you see the quiche recipe posted with us a couple days ago, uses vegie egg beaters and sounds YUMMO, I notice you do fair number of egg beaters so might be a good alternative to shake up the menus some...

Have an awesome evening, later...Alesia

 

Hi, Alesia!  Still doing good, girl!!  Keep it up!! I am totally down after reading another post about how many carbs we're "supposed" to get in a day - less than 30!!!!!  Holy crap - mine is ALWAYS over 200!!!  I can live like I am forever - but I don't think I could ever cut back to 30!!!! B - 3/4 c Glucerna flakes w/raisins w/2 T ground flax, 1 c ff milk, banana S - 1 pack pb on wheat crackers, AchievONE L - 1/2 strawberry poppyseed ff chicken salad and 1/2 whole grain baguette at Panera Bread S - 12 oz sf ff TCBY, AchievONE, 2 sf Werthers D - 1/2 stawberry poppyseed ff chicken salad and 1/2 whole grain baguette leftover from lunch, sf Jell-O cup w/ff RW, sf fudgie S - 1 oz lf Pringles, 1/2 c grapes Plus I had 65 oz water, 16 oz half decaf coffee, and 16 oz sf ff hot cocoa w/ff RW and I treaded 60 minutes BEFORE walking my butt off shopping w/my daughter all day!! Total calories - 1860 fat 31 g; carbs 280 g; protein 114 g

Hey Connie, my girl ! I read that post too "carbs who knew?"...Actually I think it said shoot for 60 or less in a day, which isn't working all that well for me either, let me tell you...But she also said she had been talking to the nut about why her loss slowed so much...I think they are actually talking about to keep losing you want to have less than 60 a day...Personally I know when I went into maintenance I HAD to add in carbs 'cuz I did not stop until I did - didn't matter what else I tried, and now I maintain well taking in around 100 or so a day, some days more...So I think you should take that with a grain of salt and do what is working for you now, if you are getting the result you want at your current level and you are choosing good carbs from fruits, veggies and whole grains, then stick with your plan, its working And BTW, you had a great food day, as far as I'm concerned...  Alesia
