Hi Star! I was too! I went in and edited my post from yesterday like Fiona suggested. I think I'll keep adding to each days and then that way they'll be easier to keep track of. You know what's interesting...I have been on LAWL since Feb and have not ever thought of making egg salad. I LOVE egg salad! See? That's the other reason I wanted to know what you guys were having . I get so bored with my own ideas for food.
Marisa -
Well you probably are right about not getting enuf nutrition in your diet right now. Especially the fat, without as little fat as the Gold plan gets, it is really bad for your system to eliminate that, you need it for your hair, skin, nails, etc. I have actually seen my hair get dry and thin for lack of fat in my diet (not this time, that was on another diet).
The Gold plan is really slim when it comes to calories and nutrition needs, please try and get it all in. sorry, I will get off the soap-box now....lol
4 ounces of juice not from concentrate, 100% fruit juice counts as 1 fruit.
So 'Thin' how tall are you? If I was your weight I would be within 2 pounds of goal - OH to dream....
Carmen - Well at the end of the day, prior to dinner, I didn't have that much left to pick from. My meat was frozen....I too, LOVE egg salad....too bad I had zero starches left or it would have been a sandwich.......
Yes, Fi's idea for editing the first post was great, I'll follow suit....
Marrisa - I also use fruit sauce - like apple sauce, but out of peaches, etc. for fruit - I can find the single serving containers - they are about 60 cals each.
Also -how about raisins? Aren't they OP for a fruit? (I don't really like them, myself)
Marisa - Next be sure and check for thinning hair Fat is really important to me now.....I'm glad I've given you reason to try and get more of your foods in.....Also the water is very important too.
Ofcourse your young, when I was your age I would go on an all prune diet for a week And I was pretty thin (118/5'7") when I did that - go figure Now if you were my age you would probably be happy at 152, wanna trade? About your slimming black - I'm about really tired of black, have worn it for years, just recently I got rid of alot of it and replaced it with a rainbow of colors
Raisins are on plan 2 TLBS is a fruit. Too bad Fuzzy Navels aren't consiered a couple fruits
