Menus and Miles Tuesday Sept. 19th

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!!!! I went home last night after work to a quiet house!! I told DD unless there was an emergency her dad needed a break. He did look like he had gotten some rest when I got home. If the little one doesn't show up today I bet he will be taking a trip to their house.

Today, Taco Tuesday, is a little ugly.

B- (this was an error on my part, I didn't look up recipes or check calorie counts when I made this last night and it was my first attempt with chia seeds) 1/4 cup chia seeds in a bowl with half a can of Pure Protein Banana Cream shake. It was too much chia so it was basically solid this morning - but still reasonably tasty! I'll try it again for tomorrow morning (with the other half of the can of Banana Cream) using half the amount of chia seeds.

MS- Hard Boiled Pastured Chicken egg

L- StarKist tuna packet in Olive Oil with Sun-dried Tomatoes

AS- Crab Dip w/cucumber slices

D- Shrimp tacos sans tortilla and a skinny margarita (I'm buying the mix to take with me, I'll order a shot of tequila at the Taco Tuesday restaurant!)

ES- Stash Green Chai Tea w/ plain protein powder and Truvia

I haven't made spaghetti for awhile and DD#2 put in an order for Thursday evening @ 7:30. I guess that's the only way I'm going to get to see her......

Sounds Good!
