Hey you losers out there! :-) Food Diaries plz

  • I am amazed that i have stuck to the MRC diet plan as long as i have (since Aug.) and have been successful. The suggestions and food, shake tips on this board has contributed hugely to my success. I want to continue to be a "Loser" and don't want to get bored. Can you help me out w/ sharing some of your daily food diaries ON Plan? below is a sample of one of my days OP....

  • I'm on the green menu now (I was only on it for 1 day last week before going off program the rest of the week) so this is my plan:

    Breakfast:
    1 oz hard cheese melted on 45 calorie bread
    1 hard boiled egg
    coffee
    HNS with 1 multivitamin, 1 krill, and 3 MSM

    Lunch:
    4 oz protein (usually turkey because it's easiest, but could be leftover chicken or tuna on the days I'm sick of turkey)
    8 oz combined lettuce & cucumber with Walden Farm dressing or a Wishbone spritzer
    fruit
    HNS with 1 multivitamin, 1 krill, and 3 MSM

    Snack if needed:
    HNS

    Dinner:
    This is where it's going to vary for me. Now that I'm on the green menu there are a lot more recipes in the MRC cookbook I can have and I plan on trying them all! So far I've really enjoyed the Mexican Chicken Soup, Mary's Marinade on chicken, and Buffalo Chicken Bites.

    If my dinner does not include bread (like the Buffalo Chicken Bites includes Melba toast in the recipe) then I always make a piece of cinnamon toast. It's a nice treat.

    I drink a minimum of 64 oz of water a day. I carry a 16 oz Klean Kanteen bottle with me at all times and make sure I drink at least 4 of them. I aim for two bottles before lunch, one bottle after lunch, and one bottle after dinner. I work on Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 9-12 so I eat lunch a little later on those days and I can usually drink 3 bottles of water before lunch then.

    the menu sounds great...i'm experimenting too w/ different recipes so i dont get bored. i did get turkey sausage to have with one egg in the am for some variety ...my DH grilled some awesome chicken last night - used spicy Mrs. Dash and a little bit of olive oil, marinated overnight and grilled. made extra so i put in ziplock and will have that this week on salad.
