Today:
B. HB egg, 1 oz. cheese, 1 oz. hard pepperoni
L. Chicken Caesar salad, rhubarb and SF Jello dessert
D. Roasted chicken thighs with peppers and zucchini
2 glasses of wine

Yesterday was not an OP day. I had very low blood sugar in the morning and had to eat carbs to bring it up. (I must admit I kind of overdid it at a party last night by adding peanut butter cheesecake!)

Sunday,

B, boiled egg and .25 cup brussel sprouts (left over from snack the night before)

L, wasa crisp w/salmon salad

S, cottage cheese w/berries

D, chicken stirfry (chicken, mushrooms, orange and yellow peppers and sesame seeds)

Late night snack, wasa crisp w/co-jack cheese and lowfat salami melted in the microwave.


Mondays Plan

Breakfast, 2 soft boiled eggs

Lunch, 2 wasa crisps w/salmon salad & 1 cup coleslaw

Snack, cottage cheese w/berries ....or....watermelon

Supper, roast beef w/ceasar salad

Snack if needed (late night) bowl of brussel sprouts

I feel sooooooooooooo much better eating this way!!!! My energy hasnt come back yet, but its still early. The sugar cravings are pretty much gone and for that I am MOST thankful for!!

Breakfast (free today in our cafetaria)
Scrambled eggs
2 slices bacon
2 sausages
coffee w/cream
(skipped the muffins/donuts/potatoes)

Lunch:
Chicken caesar salad w/garlic caesar dressing

Dinner:
Boneless chicken breast w/mushroom, butter, cream, parmesan sauce
1/2 cup cauliflower

decaf coffee w/cream

Not bad? But a bit high on fat percentage due to that great sauce I made.

Later,

Hey, the Denny's slam sounds OK for me. Thanks.

B. salami and edam cheese
L. Italian sausage, peppers and mushrooms served on romaine
(It definitely is much better on a bun but never mind!)
D. Roast pork (reheated), asparagus, cole slaw
no wine as I have a meeting

So far today - 50 oz of water in and 150 out!

Ruth. ROTFPMP! You actually measure water OUT??
I'm not going to put down my menu because it's so horrible, you would all hate me.

Ruth....try the sunshine slam...very filling and good!

Breakfast:

More flax meal cereal (with butter/cream) = 1
decaf w/cream (2)
= 3

Lunch: Greek salad (4) & dressing (1)
and 4 slices roast beef (1.6) = 6.6


dinner: Will be in a rush!!!!!! Daughter is in play at school tonight - need to leave home at 6:30 pm....

Ended up having some leftover chicken breast w/mushroom sauce...and SPAGHETTI SQUASH....1 cup...w/butter, garlic, pepper and italian herbs - it was so good - I ate more than I should...maybe extra 1/2 cup....so I cheated w/squash..can you believe that???
= 10 carbs

Grand total = 19.6 carbs (I may still need a decaf w/cream which will put me a couple carbs over my limit!!!)

Feeling crappy due to:
1) PMS Monster seen lurking about
2) pinched nerve in back, 2nd day flat out...did try some grocery shopping today (did not trust hubby to read those labels )

Breakfast:
flax meal cereal
decaf w/cream

Lunch (breakfast was at 10 by noon I was HUNGRY AGAIN!):
2 eggs, 2 slices bacon
tea w/cream & splenda

Then hobbled around the grocery store, leaning on my shopping cart which made an improvised walker!

3 pm: kielbasa slices - 3 oz = 0 carbs

4 pm: guacamole (homemade) = 6 carbs

5 pm: legal mousse (whipping cream, splenda, flavoring)

Guzzled some water in between!

Hungry for dinner now (I AM SO HUNGRY....JUST WANT TO KEEP EATING - IT'S THE PMS THING I;M SURE!!!)

Hubby is cooking up some chicken wings (President's choice brand from store: 2-3 wings is only 0.2 CARBS!!!, mild version, and they're pretty spicy)
Will add some leftover spaghetti squash (love that stuff) and some sour cream for dipping.

Needless to say I am slightly over my 20 carb limit, but still TRYING TO DO MY BEST, given the circumstances.

Hope I can get to work tomorrow (currently taking muscle relaxants!)

Wish me luck!
