Another amazing IP day yesterday! We went out to eat (to a steak house) and did awesome. Then we went to a birthday party where there was an OPEN BAR and TONS of appetizers and we weren't even tempted!! Everyone kept trying to get me to try things or get drinks- so not worth it! One short month I'll be at my goal and loving it!!

I deserve a restricted today, right?
Good morning my IP peeps! :D So, this is Day 5 for me and I decided to try the chocolate pancake with my WF syrup...well....my pancake looked like, um, poop when i tried to cook it. Got frustrated and said I will just make a smoothie with stuff I had in the house. I use Sunwarrior Protein powder (1 carb, 0 sugar, 82 calories) and made a concoction called "Chocoberry Peanutty Smoothie." It was DELICIOUS and filling!!! Now, this is why I am writing this... I researched the nutrition facts on MyFitnessPal for everything I added, and actually, the facts are comparable to a non restricted food....heck, it had 10 carbs less than the Chocolate Pancake!!! Here's the break down:
Smoothie Calories: 119 Saturated Fat 0 Fat: 2.3g Cholesterol 0 Sodium 163.7mg Potassium 227.4 mg Total Carbs 5.1g Dietary fiber 1.9g Protein: 20.9 g Calcium 3.0% Iron 45.5% Vitamin A 286.3% Vitamin C 14% Sugars: 0 Vitamin B 12 150% Magnesium 4% Chromium 41% Chlorophyll a 30mg Chocolate Pancake Calories: 171 Saturated Fat: 0 Fat: 2g Cholesterol: 0 Sodium: 220mg Potassium 230 mg Total Carbs 15g Dietary Fiber 2g Protein: 20g Calcium: 15% Iron 6% Vitamin A 0% Vitamin C 14% Sugars 0 So, with this information...I believe I should be able to have a restricted food!! No sugar, very low carb, low in fat, and as much or more protein as most of the foods. And actually, more minerals than the other food and it was made from ALL Natural foods (except the walden farms peanut butter and strawberry jelly). Yet I used stevia to help to sweeten. Thoughts? |
WI# 18 down 4 pounds and 2 inches from my tummy. Feeling good and loving the lifestyle. More baseball today and triplet graduation this Friday. Couldn't be prouder of myself...well maybe if my house was clean too! Lol! Almost halfway to goal!

If your smoothie has only 5.1g carbs, you're okay as this would not be restricted. Make sure those are NOT net carbs. You have to consider total carbs, not net carbs. If so, you are still open for your once a day restricted. Plus, can you post your recipe. Sounds really yummy. Molly |
Tripmama--Woot, woot!! You just continue to knock those pounds away. Relax and enjoy the weekend. Your triplets will only graduate from HS once! You have so much to be proud of and so much to look forward to. Isn't it great to have the energy and self-confidence to move forward to create the life of your dreams?
