Good for you!
I can see how your coach said a little guac would be okay for a special occasion, if she said to replace your oil for the day. 1 oz of avocado has about the same fat as 1 tsp of EVOO and 1g net carb. The trouble for me would be 2 oz of guac wouldn't be much. But a great coach is sure worth their weight in gold, aren't they?

Trying to do my best this weekend :/ started out my day with some IP mushroom soup. Wanted to make sure I was nice and full as I had a special baby shower to attend. With ALL the bad stuff there- cupcakes, cakes, French toast - fruit cheese..punch... I thought I did OK- I ate none of that stuff- here is what I had: 2 cups of coffee with stevia and cream~ then 2 pieces of quiche and spinach salad. The crust - I tried not to eat but it's there... I don't know why but I feel so sick - maybe the quiche ... Anyhow like I said I feel sick. If I eat I think I'm going to puke. Trying to get in more water before bed- but I can not eat my 2 other IP packs today. Now I'm worried about the dairy and quiche and I'm not sure what dressing was on salad. Tomorrow - Mother's Day - I'm saving myself for dinner at my inlaws. We're eating steak - and I'm bringing salad. No to the crusty rolls and baked potatoes. But my weigh in is on Monday. I didn't get all my veges in this week or today and I will also bring broccoli with me for tomorrow night. I guess I just feel blah. - sorry I don't get on much to chat but I hope I'm doing the right things. I'm pre-menopausal and a slow loser. I'm only losing 1.8 - 2 pounds a week but have lost inches every week. Thinking I should start my spin classes again - for my mental release (4 kids: helps with stress😏 ) but I don't want to slow down my already slow weight loss. Happy that the scale has finally started moving though- thought I was just meant to be this weight. Stay strong this weekend!

I tried two new things today: roasted turnips and a spinach smoothie. Both were delish! I usually keep my meals pretty basic but after 4.5 months it's time to try some new things.

Good evening everyone! It's been a busy day. Just finished making my family some quesadilla tacos and strawberry shortcake! When I was processing the strawberries, the scent was so tempting... so fresh and yummy! I had sauteed shrimp, asparagus, criminis and zucchini and I feel spoiled, so all is good.
I hope you all had a great OP day!

Well. Today My daughter had her first ballet Recital (She's 5). So I had my IP Warm Chocolate Drink for breakfast then it was a rat race and I never ate again till 4:30! I had IP Cream of Broccoli soup but no veggies cause my parents called and wanted to take me and my sister for mothers day supper early. We went to Moxie's. Nothing they have I eat lol So I ordered Salt & Pepper wings, plain salad with cucumber and a spear of broccoli. BUT the wings came out breaded  I peeled all of the batter off and ate just the meat, had all my salad with no dressing and my broccoli with a bit of salt. I am really hoping the chicken doesn't effect my weight loss on Monday. Hoping for a better OP day tomorrow.

Desiroo - I would bet money you feel gross because of the quiche. Not only was there crust (bread carbs your body hasn't had in a bit), but quiche is generally made with heavy cream and cheese mixed with the eggs. Plus, you doubled up the yuck by having more than 1 piece. Take it as a lesson learned, and start fresh in the morning - hopefully your tummy feels better!

Safetylady: Take care of that headache with rest and lots of water! It's just one day! Can you do a day of P1 to get back on track or do you stay the course with P3?
Feel better!

Happy Mother's Day!!
I have been up all night, crying. I had to put my beloved dog of 13 years to sleep last night. I am in so much pain and miss him so much already!!
I have no idea how people move on after losing a parent.... Ali want to do is eat a huge cake, drink a bottle of wine and sleep for a week.

Today I steped on the scale and I am 1lb away from losing 40lbs. I think after all of this work I am not going to waste it by having any quac!!! I will wait!! I will thoroughly enjoy the carne asada and pollo asada though
