Good Morning all,

I hope you don't mind if I join in and start posting my daily menus. I know it would help me stay on track if I knew everyone was reading what I put into my mouth.

I ate so horribly this weekend that I gained 4#. I'm doing a low-carb diet just until get off the initial weight that I gained or until I can't take it anymore, but this isn't a lifestyle for me. I usually eat a Jenny Craig style diet w/ small meals.

Monday:
Breakfast- 4 egg whites, 3 strips turkey bacon, coffee w/ splenda
Lunch-Cheeseburger w/ no bun, salad, diet soda
Snack-SF hot coco made w/ water
Dinner- Roasted chicken w/ veggies, small SF ice cream bar, diet ice tea

[Leenie]

Sure KitKat, the more the merrier

Ut oh Cathy's addicted to coleslaw... Hey Cathy, I made a broccoli bacon and red onion salad MMMMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!! YUMMY is all I can say.

[cathyxxx]

yea leenie! it's all your fault! if you wouldn't have given me such a good recipe I wouldn't be eating so much of it!

hey? how long have you been doing atkins now???

[cathyxxx]

hey leenie? about your salad that sounds so good...did you just mix those 3 things together? or is there a recipe for that?

and hey? have you tried this? it sure is yummy good
2 tablespoons heavy cream
2 tablespoons cold water
1 splenda
drops of vanilla

kind of test like sweet milk or melted ice cream

tell me about your salad girlie!

[Leenie]

1/2 Pound Cooked Pork Bacon, crumbled
1 head fresh raw broccoli, cut into bite size pieces (I used only the flower part)
1/4 cup red onion, chopped
3 tablespoons white Vinegar
6 - 8 Pks Splenda (depends how sweet you like it)
1 cup mayonnaise
3 Tablespoons Cream
3 Tablespoons Water
2 Tablespoons Bacon Fat
1 Teaspoon Salt

Mix all ingredients together and let it sit over night, it has to or the flavors wont meld and the broccoli won't get soft.

[Leenie]

I've been doing atkins for 7 months now, would have lost a heck of alot more if I'd been good and exercised, but I don't do either so wl is slow 27 lbs. I'm determined to have a good 10 lbs off by Easter !!!!

[cathyxxx]

Hey Leenie - thanks so much for the recipe! it sounds great! I will give this a try. and thanks for the response about being on atkins for 7 months. I appreciate it. I'm gonna email ya about something on atkins.

cathy
