I don't know about the rest of you, but it sure helps me to post my food/beverage consumption for the day and make myself accountable. Feel free to join me!
I'll join you here....I used to do this all the time, and I dont know why I stopped. I like to see what everyone else is eating. Its great for ideas and a change of pace.
Breaky..protein and fibre shake
Lunch..(planned) egg salad with 2 celery stalks to scoop it up with
Dinner..pork loin(scrapped off the breading) and 1 cup broccoli with ranch dip dressing
Snack.. cheese string.
I'll log this into fitday and come back with the carb count when Im done.
I think I did pretty good for the day. The breading on the loin added a few carbs, but Im not going to stress out about it. I scrapped off what I could so there really wasnt much left on it. Anyway, totals for the day 746 calories, 21 carbs, and 10 fibre.
Im off to have my evening herbal tea, and read a bit and get my mind off wanting to munch!!
Robin - You probably already know this, but 746 calories is awfully low! You're likely to send your body into starvation mode if you do much of that. Caloric intake should be at least 1200. End of lecture
Feeling better already.....its amazing what drinking alot of water, and not eating any sugar can do to a person
Yup Star, I know, but I let my hunger lead me. There are times Im just under 2000 calories, and still at 20 carbs...and times when at the end of the day Im surprised Ive only eaten 600 cals and will pay more attention to add-ons the next. It evens out pretty good, and I loose pretty steady.
Breakie..protein and fibre shake, cheese string
Lunch..egg salad (2 eggs)and 2 stalks of celery
Supper..3 oz chicken breast (broiled) 1 cup sauteed mushrooms, didnt get to the salad, was too full.
I always forget what I've eaten and the carb count of it. That's one reason I never post on here. I'll try to do better. This may not be a good day--going on a field trip.
Breakfast:
2 eggs: 1.2
3 sausage links-0
Lunch:
2 slices cheese- 2
turkey jerky-0
Supper:
Whatever DH makes

Most of what I'm hungry for lately is OP. I'm waiting for the chocolate cravings I usually get with TOM. Then it'll be interesting. I can no longer find zcarb bars around here I'm not a very good planner. I never planned meals even when I was eating carbs/fatty foods. It was just whatever I felt like making at the spur of the moment. lol. Now it's mainly salads and....some type of meat
Well, this was the 3rd day back on induction and I made it!! It usually takes me 3 days to get back into the swing of things....and I think Im going to do alright.
Todays foods were
Breaky..protein/fibre shake, cheese string
Lunch..egg salad(3 eggs) (no celery...I was in a hurry)
Supper..HUGE ceasar salad & broiled chicken breast
