Phase 1.
OMG need more veggies, though I should be up to 4.5 cups if I add the cucumbers and count the veggies (onions, celery, tomatoes) in the soup. {edit: nevermind, I have plenty now. I subbed cauliflower rice for quinoa and added Brussels sprouts}

B - coffee with us coconut milk. Chocolate/cinnamon protein smoothie. Half a serving of raw almonds.
L - Lentil soup with spinach and feta. Black tea.
S - Tofurkey roll-ups with light cream cheese and green onion around big slices of bell pepper. Sliced cucumbers with salt and vinegar.
D - Crabmeat-stuffed flounder with grilled zucchini and cauliflower rice. Brussels sprouts, either as a salad/slaw or roasted.

Hi my name is Sue. Hope u don't mind my joining in. Day1 P1 here

Bfast: coffee w skim milk & SF davinci. LF cottage cheese w cinn & splenda. 1 more coffee w sweet n low @ office

lunch: veggie burger w pesto & V8

dinner: flounder w lemon juice & herbs. lettuce & tomato salad w italian dressing. skim milk

snack: refried beans heated w salsa.

Need more veggies I know but didn't have time for much prep. Had a nasty headache first half of day I think in part due to I usually drank 5 cups coffee w flavored coffeemate creamer

Oh srycan't remember who at the moment but someone said they had lentil soup...was that homemade? And did you get the recipe here or has anyone found a SB friendly canned brand? Its freezing by CA standards and soup sounds great.

I have been eating two different lentil soups recently, a Greek version with tomatoes and spinach (Phase 1 compliant) and one made with red lentils and carrots, pureed. Both far exceeded my expectations. Personally I have been avoiding canned goods as much as possible but I did use canned tomatoes for the soup, so I have not gone entirely can-free.

WELL - I didn't go OFF plan yesterday technically... but I definitely didn't follow my plan... didn't feel well. Ate way too much Ezekiel bread, almond butter, tomato soup, and on and on.

By the way, I made a Brussels sprouts salad yesterday that was da BOMB! My husband and I don't even like them but it was delicious! The key is blanching the leaves. I haven't found the exact recipe (I read it originally in a magazine somewhere), but this one comes close - but I used slivered almonds, some parmesan cheese (actually I put nutritional yeast on mine) and I did not use nearly as much dressing as it calls for - their recipe would be more than a tablespoon of oil per serving, with only 3 sprouts worth of leaves? Sounds a bit off to me. But I did make the vinaigrette as posted, just used less. Oh and of course I blanched the leaves, which was part of the original recipe I saw. I made it once without blanching and it wasn't nearly as good - more bitter and a LOT of chewing.
I will post this recipe some day.

Today... I think I will try again for the exact same menu as yesterday. But I think I'll try roasting Brussels sprouts today. Or HASHED

After a disappointing second week on the plan (I gained back weight and made an excuse to go off-plan one evening), I am back and have decided to do one more week of Phase 1, being honest to myself and adhering to the program! This morning I had tea with skim, and egg whites with a wedge of Laughing Cow Lite and lots of tumeric. I'll steam a head of broccoli and chicken breast for lunch.

My goals for this week:
* to exercise every day for at least 30 minutes
* to be motivated by my actions and not the scale
* not to cheat -- because I'd only be cheating myself!!!
