My eating has been terrible...
It seems to only take a few days of eating bad to put on 3-4 pounds...

I am going to try to come up with a healthy routine for
breakfast & lunch & snacks and then make
some new dinner recipes that are Core or Southbeach type of recipes.

Do any of you eat similar things for breakfast & lunch everyday??
Maybe I could do this
Breakfast - protein shake
Lunch - Left overs from recipe night before or Frozen entree (300 cal)
Dinner - cook heathy dinner (core ,south beach, cooking light)
Snacks - Fruit

Hi:

I'm home from NM, and I don't think I've gained any. We ate large for breakfast, then modestly throughout the day. We had a great 3 mile hike in the mountains today.

Nancy, I've been thinking of eating essentially the same thing everyday:

Oatmeal for breakfast
Protein shake, or similar for lunch
Salad and protein for dinner

With snacks chosen depending upon whether I'm lifting weights or not. I have read that eating the same thing (within some reason) can help move off a plateau.

JoJo, if you want to start the new thread, please do.
