Default It's monday moring someplace :)

I stayed 100% OP all weekend! We went to a friends house that we normally have drinks and eat and play games! I took a OP bar and my favorite LARG Fuji water and I did not even WANT to cheat HUGE NSV for me!

then super sad day today, poor baby has 102 temp most of the day and was stuck to me like glue! I can't lie the cuddeling was nice but it made it hard to eat! Just finished getting in my food for the day and almost did not eat enough!! LOL never thougth I would say something like that!!

I did not have much of a chance to catch up on the thread today but the things I did read were execelent! Great WI and NSV's!!!

I made the jars after reading on this forum about them my first weekend and I LOVE them! They are so much fun every time I put a bead/stone in the skinny jar I vow to NEVER put it back in the fat jar!! When I first made them my DH said and if you gain you put them back in the other Jar! I told him NO I'm never gaining again! optomistic I know but motivating!!

Have a great end of your weekend everyone and here to a 100% OP work week!!!

Good morning!!

WI morning for me this morning, and I'm officially in the 160's! WooHoo!!! Down 2.4lbs. I am now halfway to my goal, I love that!!

I've got my eggs boiling now to take tonight, so I will be able to stay 100% OP all night. Packing cucumber, peppers, my bar, and hard boiled eggs and already have my Raspberry Jelly in the fridge for when I get home. That is how you plan ahead for a 100% OP day!

I hope everyone has a great day!!

Good Morning, Its Monday again. It has been tuff staying OP, but I've been doing it. I bought me some dill pickles to help with the between meals struggles. It has seemed to work. I think I still need to eat more veggies
(THAT I DISLIKE ). I've tryed to get my 4 cups, but I don't think I'm getting them. Between the Kale smoothies, Streamed Cabbage, Broc & Cauliflower Ive veggied myself out.

I have a hard time a lot of days too. I found that if I save them for meals, I can not eat them all. A lot of times I'll pre-measure out my veggies for the day, and munch on them throughout the day, and that has really seemed to help...but I don't much care for cooked veggies! I'd much rather eat them raw!

I am 1 stinking pound away from hitting 30 pounds! It's amazing how awesome I feel! Yesterday I went shopping with my mom and had been eyeballing a shirt. I had tried it on a few weeks ago, and the XL was still a little tight. Yesterday I tried it on at the store again....and IT FIT...and it looks great! Needless to say...it has now found a new home in my closet. I have to quit buying clothes...but it's so hard when you LIKE the way you look...and your entire wardrobe has been eliminated.

my go-tos are baked cauliflower and broccoli, pepper strips dipped in WF ranch, baked zucchini (chips or spears), if you boil cauliflower puree it and add in a prepared IP soup (like leek or chicken) it tastes like mashed potatoes

does anyone know:
if I use the crispy cereal to make something else, do I have to use the milk powder in order for it to "count" as my IP food, does it have nutritional value or can I just shift out the cereal puffs?
