Hello LWs. When I first woke up this morning I thought thank goodness its Friday!! What a disappointment to realize I was wrong! Had a great workout with the trainer last night, she exhausted me and then some.
Yesterday I ended up dumping my morning snack in the garbage It was strawberries and yogurt but there was a little water/juice in the bottom so I tried to strain it and the whole thing slid in the trash....good thing I always keep deli meat in the fridge at work but all I could smell sitting at my desk was yummy strawberries....
Anyway, I'm trying to keep the calories down, but I'm also wanting to use the food I have on hand so it doesn't go to waste:
B - 2 oz inside round roast, 1 egg, 1 cheese slice (don't really enjoy an egg without my cheese)
S - 3 oz strawberries, 2 oz grilled chicken breast (left overs)
L - 1 Hayter's turkey sausage, tomato/cuke/feta salad with Mediteranean Greek dressing (all things weighed and logged)
S - 4 slices deli turkey with mustard
D - small Caesar salad, 30 gr bacon, 1 tbsp. dressing
Cal - 987, carbs 42, Protein 85 (a little lower than I like to see)
Have a good day!

LWS....listen to Roz. She is a success. Wish I had stuck to plan like she does. I'm 8 1/2 years out and went astray. I'm feeling really good about what I'm doing now. Eating what others eat, just less, doesn't work. We need to follow a Bariatric plan.....IMO.
DH's favorite donut shop had their monthly special....buy 6 donuts and get 6 free. :( I told him to keep out what he wants for the next 2 days and the rest go in the freezer. Actually, I don't want any because I like what I'm doing now.
This morning I had my shake but by 9:00 I was hungry. I usually have a snack about 10:00 so I drank water and more water and before I knew it, it was 10:30. I had low sugar oatmeal with a little peanut butter.
Click shake (15g)
oatmeal w/PB
Beans; low carb cornbread
Protein shake (15g)
nuts, blackberries
Pot stickers
Another shake????

Usually every one picks a goal weight that sounds or looks good but seldom do they stick to that number.
There are a lot of decisions to make and you probably look and feel like a totally different person. We always suggest you don't stop until your body decides to hold steady for awhile and you quit loosing. That's usually in the middle of a normal BMI. Bounce back is real!!!

Hi Roz, just coming up on my year on April 11th actually. Won't be long now.
And no need to change your advise. If I do feel like I need something at night I will throw a protein shake in.
Maybe I need to try your approach and have a protein drink for morning and afternoon snack...
I'm not really sure what my goal is anymore. I picked 160 for myself because I thought that sounded like a good number. Whether its realistic or not remains to be determined. My centre has said I shouldn't go below 180 but when I look at myself I see areas where I think I could stand to lose a few more pounds. If only we could decide where the pounds are lost from.
Others look at me and say I shouldn't lose anymore and yes I sometimes say I look skinny but I'm trying to continue to lose to allow for the initial regain that everyone says is inevitable.
I do appreciate your input, I'd stop posting altogether if I didn't, just in a temporary funk and trying to find what will get my loss going again.

Good afternoon! Why is that I wake up early and then just nicely drift back to sleep right before the alarm goes off? Tired today. Running at lunch and have a session with personal trainer. She'll assess my progress over the last couple of months and modify my workout routine for the next couple of months. Actually looking forward to it, sort of!
A little higher (again) on the calories today but protein is high too so maybe that makes up for it!? So many different opinions every day and I appreciate them all, but sometimes I just get so confused.
B - 3 oz leftover steak with 1 egg (was going to leave out the egg and may yet if the steak fills me, but usually there is room down there)
S - 87 gr skyr yogurt with 3 oz fresh strawberries
L - 3 Farmboy carmelized onion/swiss meatballs
S - 4 slices deli turkey with mustard
D - shepperds pie (4 oz ground beef, 2 oz mashed taters) 2 tbsp. gravy
Total Cal 975, carbs 42, Protein 101
Happy Hump Day, all down hill here from noon on!
That's why I drink my Protein. Then I don't have to worry about the totals.
