Default back!

Im back after several weeks of parties and bbqs... and while I cant say I was very beachy, I did manage to moderate and not gain back more than 2 lbs of what I had lost, which considering the onslaught of gatherings I had to attend, I am actually quite proud of myself.
At any rate starting back on phase 1(ish) to readjust myself to the beach.

Todays menu:
2 eggs poached topped with homemade salsa, rf cheese & green onions
a cup of skim milk

1 oz of cashews
2 celery stalks

Chicken caeser salad
a cup of skim milk

Thats all I could manage today, as my stomach was upset.... well that and a gallon of tea.
Hopefully tomorrow is better.

I am up 3 lbs after an August of binge-iness. grrrrr. It's like I'm half completely on plan/half out of control eating junk. Gotta reel it in! Three more days in August...

Phase 1

B - coffee with us coconut milk; half of it used in a spinach creme caramel mocha smoothie made with Greek yogurt.
L - weekend glow kale salad, except I am missing some of the ingredients (avocado/carrots/raisins). I think I will add some baked tofu to this, since I appear to only lose weight when I increase protein. Cup of white tea.
S - homemade cocoa-roasted soy nuts
D Attempting to make a lowfat/high protein "cream" of broccoli soup. Could be a disaster! Big green salad on the side with lemon juice/flaxseed oil vinaigrette.
dessert - none? cup of tea maybe

Hey Emma,
I used Little b's recipe. They're P2 compatible, pretty dense, and not too sweet. They weren't so amazing I wanted to eat the whole batch or anything, but they weren't bad at all. My BF (who does not watch what he eats) thought they were awesome. I'd use a food processor instead of a blender, though, as mine didn't mix very well.

Cool, thanks - I checked it out. She lots of protein bar/muffins etc. Great resource.

Also - I just found on that site about freezing pureed spinach to add to smoothies - brilliant!
