    It's time for a new week of talking On-Plan!

    * Anyone, from any phase (1, 1.5, 2, 3, etc.) can post, and those who are new to 3FC are especially encouraged to do so!
    * This thread is for questions, sharing advice and strategies, and encouraging each other to stay on plan. It is not for chatting about daily life unrelated to this topic. Members have indicated that they would like to have chatting remain in the Daily Thread, so any posts that are off topic or chatty will be moved by the mods to the Daily.
    * Because people from different parts of the plan are posting here, it'll help everyone if you indicate what phase you're in when you post. Thanks!
    * While you may certainly find, from time to time, the need to ask for help after going off plan, remember that this thread is about staying on plan. When you share details of off plan foods you've eaten, it can upset, tempt, and otherwise frustrate other members, so please keep these details to a minimum.
    So, share with us: How are you staying on plan this week?

  • Christie - how are you doing with vegetables? 4 1/2 cups aren't obvious in your menus but sometimes they are included in meals. The vegetables, dairy & beans are really going to help you stay full and keep your blood sugar level. If you need some ideas there's lots of good information in the stickies
