Menus and Miles Monday October 17th

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!

Sounds YUMMY Gina!! 

My first week back to eating properly gave me a whopping one pound loss.  It's a start.  Better than a gain.  Yesterday I made Unjury Apple Muffins.  The taste isn't bad but they fall apart and have to eat with a spoon.  Also, made SF Brownies, a Bariatric Eating recipe.  AWFUL!!  I thought I would go ahead an eat them rather than waste the ingredients, but they went in the trash today.  A stick of butter and a cup of Stevia......hated to waste but the taste was bitter.

Breakfast - Click shake

Mid-Morning - Crumbly Apple Muffin

Lunch - Meatballs in Au Jus; green beans; Greek yogurt

Snack - Beef sticks

Dinner - Tilapia; Quinoa; salad (3rd time to try Quinoa, just don't like)

Snack - Ricotta pudding

I'm not a cook/baker so when you find something REALLY worth the work and worth eating let me know....LOL! 

I like the variety!!

One pound is Awesome!!

Starting week six - trying to learn how this works!!

B - Muscle Milk 32G protein

L - Low fat string chees and 3 crackers

S - Muscle Milk 32g protein

D - 3/4 slice white toast, 2 slice ham, 1/8 c. 2% cheddar cheese, 2 tbs 2% cottage cheese.

Oh my at 6 weeks and you're eating white bread and crackers.  I would caution against that, stay carb free as long as you can!

WELCOME TO OUR LW BOARD!!!     It's sooooo Awesome to see a new poster!!! 

I'm also going to warn you about eating carbs so early out.  Please read my carbs message above.  If it's not Protein I wouldn't be eating it this early out.  If you don't decarb now it's going to haunt you later.......
