Menus and Miles Tuesday Oct. 11th

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!!!!!  It is sooooo much harder to do Maintenance without them!

Morning LW's!!!  Had yesterday off and it was soooo nice!  If I could retire part-time I might consider it....LOL. Went with DD's and Grandkids to an Animal Park.  The kids loved it and we loved the smiles on their faces.

Good morning gang!  Back to the grind today.  Glad for a 4 day week but they always seem to drag on.  Hopefully not the case this week.

Holding steady at 200.4  some day I'll have a different story to tell.

Totals Cal 955 (a little high maybe?), Carbs 34, protein 117

Have a great day!

I wouldn't worry as much about the Calorie total as I would the Protein Total.  I never counted calories during my losing stage.  I'd like to see your Protein total higher though.

Sounds Good!!!!

Continuing my new eating plan (not a diet) and I do feel better.  I did have 6 saltine crackers with my Chilie for lunch but you gotta have crackers with Chilie. 

Click/Unjury protein shake

Protein coffee

Chilie; Saltines

Protein bar

Cheese stick; banana

Chicken strips made in the air fryer; spaghetti squash

I eat Saltines with my soups and Laughing Cow Cheese spread.  It has never seemed to effect the scale.

Do you have a Protein Total you are suppose to have every day?

Sounds Good!
