Hi,
I'd like to compile daily menu plans that would be appropriate for SBD with recipes included. I'm in phase 1 now and am obsessing (of course). I planned my first 14 days and did the cooking in anticipation. If anyone would think this is interesting and would like to participate, please do!

what works great for me is the following..
1200 to 1500 calories and i use the calorie king book and tracker found at boarders book store.

my breakfast week one is cold cereal measured and milk with fruit

lunch is always a salad with diet free dressing, eggs ( 2) or chicken or tuna for protein, variety of veggies and fruit. ( I like grapes or strawberries or mandrine oranges ( measured) in it.

some times i also have a cup of soup with it or a baked potato or a yam.

I do the same for dinner
however i never go over 1500 calories for the day
and I drink lots of water

But, its working!!

Hi, oceanna.... when I started this, I preplanned all my meals, did all my shopping, and even cooked all the entrees in advance. If I stick to my plan, all is well... if, however, I vary even a little, I am IMMEDIATELY punished! I've been doing an egg something with tomato/V-8 in the morning, lean turkey lunchmeat wrapped around a string cheese for snack, salad with some protein for lunch, some nuts in the afternoon, some meat, veggie and salad for dinner, and jello with a dollop of cool whip for snack (yum!)... so far, so good!
