Menus and Miles Wed. Jan 27th

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!

Over the hump day already!!

Meeting this afternoon so no muscle pump.  Shoveling will have to count as my exercise.  I did get my car out so I am mobile again at least.

decaf protein coffee  33g
eggbeaters, cheese
lemon tea protein 13g
chopped steak, brussel sprouts
grapefruit
lemon tea protein 13g
pulled pork, cream peas
protein shake or hot chocolate  23g

Shoveling snow is no easy task! Glad you can get out. Be safe

That would be horrible to be stuck in the house even if you didn't have some place to go.  Glad you got your car out. Do you shovel up after your horses?

Congrats on another good day!!!

I do muck out the barn 2x a day everyday, snow, rain, sun.  But the horses were in a lot more during the snow and there was a lot more to shovel.  I clean up the areas outside where I feed them but not the whole 5 acres.  It's enough to stay busy. 

You must be super strong!!!!!
