I've done pretty well on the water today. The raspberries were the first locals of the season and just too tempting. My body decided to start Phase II - don't blame me! :shrug:

[bobo1968]

I haven't eaten much today, and didn't really eat a meal until dinner. Twice during the day, I ate a piece of lunch meat and FF cheese, and for dinner I had two chicken weiners with a salad. I can't believe how NOT hungry I am on this diet.

[ellis]

I hear ya, Bobo. :yes:
And I hate to say this, but make sure you eat enough! You don't want your body to go into some weird starvation mode and start holding onto your fat! :cbg:

Thursday:

So far:

- coffee w/skim milk
- 2 coffees w/skim milk
- 2 multi-grain bread w/garlic butter :rolleyes:

- shipload of pistachios
- 2 waters

- fish
- cauliflower (fake potatoes)
- other veg?

[Ruthxxx]

Today - the plan anyhow

B. two soft boiled eggs with fake butter (ICBINB)

Planned:
L. tuna salad on more damned lettuce!
D. BBW scallop skewers with broiled tomato and snow peas
that yummy ricotta dessert!

Lots of water.

[bobo1968]

You're right Ellis. :yes:

I will have to try to be more careful to plan my meals. I was sewing all day yesterday, and just grabbed the quickest thing. Here's what I've had so far today.

Breakfast: slept late!:rollpin:

Lunch: grilled chicken with Mrs. Dash, okra cooked in a little olive oil and some chicken boullion cubes.

Snack: ricotta dessert

Dinner:More okra with Hormel Black Label ham. ricotta-only about a TBS. or so!

The ham I ate was like a canned, cured one. I hope that's okay. It only had 100 cals for 3 oz, 4.5 fat g, 1 carb. gram. It was cured though with water, salt, dextrose, sodium, phosphates, sodium nitrate. I hope the dextrose didn't hurt???

[Whimsey]

Breakfast
2 egg omelet w/ tiny bit of cheese

lunch
one weenie w/ tiny bit of cheese

snack:
sugar free popsicle

dinner:
eye of round steak cooked with
bell pepper and onion
salad
some other veggie (?)

snack:
30 pistachios (maybe)
sugar free popsicle (maybe)

[Ruthxxx]

B. Western Omelet - 2 eggs, green pepper, 1 green onion and an ounce of boiled ham plus a slice of fat free cheese
L. I will be on the road so am taking some Laughing Cow Lite cheese and celery sticks and peppers
D. TBA but I think it will be scallop skewers again with yet another salad! My garden is producing bales of the stuff! I wish I could bring some into the Coop to share!

[Whimsey]

breakfast
2 pieces of turkey bacon
1 string cheese

snack

Haha-I didn't do great today. When I was in Germany, I got hooked on those Toblerone bars, and they are kinda hard to find around here. Anyway, my sister brought me one today, and I ate it, and that set me off!!!!!! I ate it, and then I came home and ate a piece of that left over pizza. I think I'm PMS'ing!!! I swear i will do better tomorrow though!!!!!!
