Phase 2

Blech. Cold or allergies or something keeping me in bed today, so not making the best choices necessarily, but staying on plan none the less.

So far today:
Kashi GoLean with 1 % milk
Beef broth with cayenne

Any advice for SBD friendly cold rememdies? I usually turn to OJ, chicken noodle soup, or spicy ramen, but those are all verboten Can I have half a shot of bourbon in a SF hot toddy?

We were in China this February. A popular drink was hot Coke with grated ginger. I loved it, and plan on making it the next time one of us gets sick. I think it would work pretty well with diet coke as well.

I hope you're feeling better soon.

Phase II (Maintenance)

Had a real eating challenge last evening when we went to a barbecue joint. They are so difficult to find healthy choices on the menu. I did OK though.

B: Oatmeal, almond butter, almond milk, V8
L: Amy's Low Fat Black Bean Chili
S: Tall skinny hazelnut latte
D: Sirloin steak (asked them to leave the garlic butter off), Romaine salad (asked them to leave the cheese off) with a little Caesar dressing on the side
S: Almond butter

Didn't get enough veggies today. I spent most of the day shopping and didn't take snacks with me.

Moki--Thanks for the tip. I'll give that a try. When you say "hot coke" do you mean temperature hot? How would you do that? I have lots of fresh ginger on hand. Feeling human again today

So far:
B-Kashi go lean, v8
S-Venti iced SF Caramel coffee w/ nf milk
L-JJ Unwich
D-Taco salad

Hubs let me sleep in (<3) until 10! It kind of messed up breakfast and lunch, but was so worth it.

kids birthday party this afternoon. I'm not going to deny myself cake, but i will split a small piece with DH (he isn't a huge fan of cake) instead of having a whole piece to myself. Also, I'm going to have a snack before we go instead of snacking on crappy birthday party food.

1: (brunch) sauteed edamame, broccoli, red pepper, yellow squash, asparagus and onion with braggs and mrs. dash - topped with a poached egg

Just came back from a week long conference in South Dakota...which was a SB Disaster!!! I was on Phase II, and there was literally NOTHING served that was approved. Lots of white rolls, pasta, mashed potatoes, etc. The only thing I could have eaten where the 4 broccoli florets they served as a side with everything. And because the sessions were so crammed together, I didn't have time to hit the restaurant in the hotel to get some SB approved meals.

GRRRRR!!!! Guess I'm heading back to Phase I for the week to undo the damage.

Phase II

B: Cinnamon Omelet, V8
L: Large salad with fresh salsa, black beans, RF pepper jack cheese
S: Bite of a truffle at a outdoor market, carrots, hummus
D: Salmon with pesto, roasted cauliflower, bell peppers, onions, grape tomatoes
S: Almond butter

yes, you pour the coke into a saucepan, add some sliced or grated ginger, and then heat it up. Some people boil it, but I just heat it until I think it's hot enough. Yummy!
