I'm back on the thread! Been crazy with the kitchen (yeah I know everybody is tired of hearing it!) so not much time to post. I have been on plan though!

Welcome Crstrixie, nice to have you along! Hey, don't be frustrated with the 1 pound a week thing. I am stuck in the same situation, so maybe by reading everyone elses posts I hope to find something that might work better for me. Better to lose slow than gain slow!

Tilly, what is with the one string bean? I laughed so hard at that! Is that eating one bite of something you don't like?

Ok, today:

Breakfast-- 1/2 cup really high fiber pellet looking cereal (I'm uh, having difficulties!)

Lunch -- 3 roast beef, mustard and cheese rollups

Dinner -- Grilled chicken with pepper sauce, sauteed veggies and pinto beans. 7 tortilla chips and salsa

And coffee and not enough water! Shame on me, must drink more water!!!

Yesterday --

B- Scrambled eggs and cheese

Lunch - 3 peppers stuffed with cheese (chile rellenos)
5 tortilla chips and salsa

Dinner - Chicken salad-salad with blue cheese dressing

Snack Sugar free ice cream, a couple of s/f chocolate nibbles


Ok, I know the tortillas are not on plan, but that is a huge accomplishment for me to stop at 5 and not a basket! We have unfortunately for our stomachs and wallets been eating out a LOT while the kitchen is under repair. Tomorrow is back to normal, hopefully, and there will be no more chips.

Ok, last night's dinner was pork rinds and goat cheese. Today is:

Breakfast: cup of tea and Atkins chocolate peanut bar (having very little luck in staying away from the bars)
Lunch: curry soup with roast pork and vegetables (yes, there definetly is sugar in this . I'm being naughty.
Dinner: stuffed cabbage with creamed caluiflower and string beans.

I'm going away to Philly for the weekend tomorrow, will be back on the wagon on Monday. I don't plan to eat any straight carbs or sugar though.

Here's whats happening today

breaky- woke too late, didnt have any
lunch-boiled egg and chicken breast
supper- some sort of chicken and brussel sprouts
I'll probably have some sort of snack, however Im not sure what yet.

Have a great OP day!

O.K. it was pretty simple today. I didn't have that much time to stick around the house and think about food.

Breakfast~~ Some steak-ums with a little salt and pepper on them and a smidge of ketchup

Lunch~~ A couple of slices of salami with some mayo smeared on them

Dinner~~ Burger patties with some lettuce, tomatoes, and mayo

I ran our the door with the salami in hand. I have been on the run so much the last few days and I've definately noticed a decline in my hunger. That's a low carbing plus !!

Snacks for today were.......

coconut chocolate Atkins bar (Just too good!)
and a 1 oz slice of mozza cheese.

Ive been feeling really tired lately......Im not sure why. Ive been taking my vitamins and supplements. But when I get into bed, Im OUT for the night and have trouble getting up in the morning. I certainly could have used a nap today.

Anyway, have a nice night ladies
Robin

I can't believe it's Thusday already and I haen't posted a menu yet. I have been goo and OP, but instead of doing a whole weeks worth of menus, I'll just do today.

B: the last of my breakfast casserole
L: terriaki checken and steamed veggies
S: tomato w/roasted garlic soup and salad

Believe it or not I didn't have any snacks today. Tomorrow is weigh in day for me and I hope the "extras" that were added on vcation will be gone soon.

Tilly, maybe you should get some Russell Stover candies. They have chocolate things that are the same size and shape as Hershey Nuggets and they are really good. I like them because I can open one and walk away. If I open a sugar free bar, then the whole bar is as good as gone.

Today:

Breakfast: Coffee. I know....but I slept late. Then I got busy!

Lunch: Boiled egg, 3 roast beef/mustard/cheese rollups.

Snack: Handful of nuts

Dinner: Roasted lemon-pepper chicken leg quarter, 1/2 cup lima beans, 1/2 cup sugar snap peas. Not the lowest carb veggies!

Snack: Coffee and a chocolate nibble.

I blew the day before I even got started. Ever tried sugar free double fudge cookies? 22 carbs for 3 cookies. My friend at work thought they would be good with our coffee. Can we say binge??????? Then it was on to cheese nips, 33 carbs for 12 crackers, but who counts crackers? Lest I forget, there was also some tootsie rolls (I was scared to look for the carb count!) and that coke I had with my very very OP lunch. Hey, at least I'm eating!! Jennifer, that Russel Stover comment has me diving into the halloween candy. Hey, I thought I gave all that stuff away!

Today's plan (snuck out of the store again today)

breaky, fried egg
lunch, chicken breast and boiled egg
supper, more chicken done in salsa and cream cheese with green beans
snack if I get hungry, 2 slices of mozza cheese.
