Losers for Lent
Saturday - how are you guys?
I already had my coffee (2) and protein drink, and the eggbites, and some chocolate.
The green tea is waiting... I need another 10 min before I can start it.
I am doing well with my Lent commitment - not losing - and not gaining. I stay away from simple carbs, the whipped cream, though I am tempted. Also meatless Fridays and Wednesday night are still OK. But - I am having problem with that - Fridays I get hungry. I want meat. I eat fish, and cheese, and other meatless dishes - but that does not fill me up. Last night - I was hungry. I stayed up late (watching a movie) and when the clock showed it was after midnight and already Saturday - I got some cold cuts from the fridge and ate with passion. Just a few pieces,. but still. I did not care about any other foods, snacks. Wanted the meat. How weird.
I need to make more "dense" food choices in the future for Friday. Or I may not make it.
I think I will make crab meat egg bites... - that would be nice (I hope) I will let you know how they turn out.

Keep being strong , I am off to make breakfast!
I eat a lot of string cheese sticks. I buy the light - Frigo head - they have 2.5 gr fat, and 8 gr proteins per stick. If I get 4 + no cal veggies - I get 10 gr fat, 24 gr proteins. They are also great to be wrapped in a cold cut then nuked, or warmed up on GF grill, until the cheese just start oozing out of it. Yum... with some cool cucus, or pickles, or even fresh red peppers... (my fav cold cut lately is the turkey pastrami from Sam's - nice and lean and spicy, but very thinly sliced)
I do not know what whould I do if someone would tell me that I can't have cheese...

Good luck. I love them. I try to keep them in the freezer at all time. I use the mid size muffin forms - the 12 form. 2 bites - my brealfast or brunch.
