Menus and Miles Tuesday Dec. 29th

WARNING TO SELF AND TO ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN!!! AVOID 'BAD' CARBS AT ALL COSTS!!! THEY ARE ADDICTING!! THEY WILL SLOW DOWN YOUR WEIGHT LOSS DURING THE LOSING STAGE (and you won't even notice)!! THEY WILL MAKE THE SCALE GO UP AFTER THE HONEYMOON PERIOD IS OVER.

Success in Maintenance starts with GOOD CHOICES during the Honeymoon Period.

I feel I need to repeat this: I am a FIRM believer in Good Whey Protein Drinks!!!!! I have IC (Irritable Bladder Syndrome) and I can only have them while I'm not having a flare up. It is sooooo much harder to do Maintenance without them!

Afternoon LW's!!!  I'm basically having the same menu as yesterday.  I'm a routine eater and that works better for me.  Less time thinking about food.  Dinner is usually is different because then I have DH to consider.  Do you have something that works good for you?

That's great you can work from home.  I did it for awhile but I'm to much a people person so it didn't last for long.

Looks like you are working hard to get those extra pounds off....
