Atkins and Low Carb Weight Loss
Friday Carb Accountability Thread
OK, I'm still a little earlier; but I am awake around 5 am Eastern time. I do better if I preplan my day, and I'm afraid if I wait, I won't get around to posting (like I did yesterday). I hope this is ok?
I have a bit of a challenge tonight, as my daughter and I will be attending a sleep over / lock in for American Heritage Girls. We are making blankets to donate to a local women with children abuse center. There will be foods--lots of food. I am taking those infamous, low carb salami rolls and hoping to avoid the sweets. For my salty crunch fix, I'm taking port rinds. And if the sweet / chocolate craving**** I have my Premier Protein drinks. That's the plan anyway.
Here is what I have planned for today:
Marble Jack cheese, 1 oz 110 0 9 6
Regular Coffee, 10 cup (8 fl oz) 24 0 0 3
Ham Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh Smoked, 1.8 oz 45 0 2 8
Chicken Breast, no skin, 6 ounces 187 0 2 39
Bumble Bee Sardines in Water, 1 can drained, 1 serving 120 0 7 13
Roo's Salami Dill Rolls -- Nut info is per roll, 6 serving (view recipe) 253 1 23 10
Hard Boiled Egg, 2 large 155 1 11 13
Premier Nutrition Protein Chocolate Shake (Costco), 2 serving 320 10 6 60
Pork Rind (0.5 oz), 2 serving 160 0 10 18

Planning ahead is EVERYthing! Sounds like you are doing a great job of anticipating your nutritional AND emotional eating needs!
I had to go look up American Heritage Girls -- Looks like a really great organization. Hope you come back and tell us how much fun you and your daughter had (and also about your infamous low-carb salam rolls).
I didn't track my food today in large part because I've just been soaking up low-carb lasagna out of pure family aggravation. Six kids in the house right now, and five of them are teenagers, so as you might imagine there's a lot of drama (especially when they're bored because there really IS no drama).
This was pretty much my day:
B: eggs hollandaise (you're probably getting tired of reading this)
coffee with evaporated milk as creamer
L: low-carb lasagna -- exactly like regular lasagna but made with blanched cabbage in place of noodles -- Usually I blanch and chill them a day ahead, because no one wants to eat lasagna when the house smells like boiled cabbage!
S: More lasagna
D: chicken soup, chicken, green beans, and probably a glass of wine if all of the teenagers show up, sheeeeeeeeeesh

Rebecca, those are the ones that I have too. I have several bags in the drawer but they don't call to me. I just remind myself that they are higher in carbs than how I'm eating. But, if I feel crazy for a carb snack, that's the route I'll go.
