Good girl for you zofia. I'm going through a funk where I'm getting really miserable. I keep trying and trying and my scale just won't move and I'm starting to feel really deprived.

L: chicken and wild rice salad with alonds
S: kashi fruit and nut bar
D: pasta with chickpeas, feta, and tomatoes, glass of pinot grigio

Oh Petra I understand. I know for me replacing one of my grain with veggies helped to get rid of the plaeau. When I look at your menu I notice there is grain in every meal and snack. If you read the chapter about fighting plateaus it tells you that if in wave 2 you stop loosing, just by removing grain either in your lunch or dinner (find it easier in lunch) it boost your system to loose again. maybe try it?
today:
cereal and 0% milk
Lunch: stir fry form yesterday
Dinner: Chicken with vegetable and wholewheat noodles.
Zofia-you are probably right. That will also cut calories. I just don't want to end up feeling even more deprived and miserable. I'm working on it.
B: omelet with canadian bacon and green onion, english barley bread, reduced sugar strawberry preserves, sugar free latte
L: wild rice and chicken salad
S: string cheese, kashi fruit and nut bar
D: whole grain pasta with chickpeas, feta and tomatoes
I think its gonna work Petra! Just keep in mind it can take up to one week befor eyou actually see a huge change. I know me its the next day but some peoiple are not like that.
B: I cheated I had butter, 2 slice of toast
L: Chicken salad with no dressing to compensate this morning
D: Merguez with veggies and a cup of noodles (merguez is full of fat but I actually cooker it with my george foreman grill and then use papertowel to remove the rest of the fat which in the end I am sure is better since it is also a really high in protein sausage.)
Yesterday, not such a good day of eating-in fact it included pizza and chocolate cake (only 1 slice of each) but way out of character for me. Today, back on track
B: french toast made from my english barley bread, maple syrup, sugar free latte
L: sauteed halibut with asparagus
S: kashi fruit and nut bar
D: steak salad. I grilled a bunch of steak so I'll be eating this for a few days but that's okay because I love this.
You are not talking to yourself Petra I've been reading and appreciate your posting your menu. Things you can have on the Sonoma diet look pretty good to me. I have a book on order from Amazon.
I have a few days left of diet to go meals. I learned I like fish for dinner at least some days. And I am looking forward to doing my own fresh meals.
I'm also going to treat myself to some new pretty plates>
