Here is a sample of my day.
Bk: 1 cup mixed berries. 1/2-3/4 c nf greek yogurt (depending on my weight), 1-2 T almond butter or 1 0z almonds, and 1low carb Big Valley Waffles. Lately I have dropped the waffles as I am working on up pounds.
Lunch: 2 c spinach or arugula, 2 c veges, 6oz protein, sometimes 2 t salad dressing or lemon juice if I am trying to lose.
Dinner: Unlimited veges: Ethiopian cabbage, Indian String beans, greek red cabbage, Roasted veges including parmesan onion rings or cauliflower made with egg beaters or olive oil,shredded zuchinni noodles, artichokes
My proteins are Tandoori Chicken, Greek chicken, Ethiopian Berbere shrimp, Mexican carne asada, Fish tacos.
I do not track calories..just cut back when I need to. I counted the calories, proteins, fiber, fat when I moved to P3 breakfasts.
thank you Malie this was very helpful!!! I copied to the maintenance what are you eating thread I started, Do you blame the "going up in lbs" to the waffles are you doing anything else to cause it? I ask wondering because this looks like a perfect maintenance day to me?Originally Posted by Maile
KCdoe: I thought the best advice I found was to continue eating what you ate in P1, P2, and P3. Then in P4 you add a small amount of carbs like a half a sweet potato.Here is a sample of my day.
