Morning on planers. Let's all stay on plan and work toward looking a little like this
.
Yesterday was another good phase 1 op day for me and I am confident that today will be too.
B -Mock pancakes w/sf jam, 1 turkey bacon, V8 and decaf coffee w/sf creamer. Still don't understand how sf jam can be a phase one item when it contains fruit but what the heck, it's on the list and isn't causing me any cravings so I'm going to have it.
S - Nothing
L - 6 very thin deli chicken slices w/roasted garlic hummus, grn salad w/cucumber, tomato and balsamic dressing
S - Nothing
D - Roasted chicken breast, roasted broccoli w/ lf cheese, grn salad w/radish, tomato, mushrooms w/balsamic dressing
Dessert - 1 cup yogurt w/cinn and pecans
Zef - Acknowledging what you are facing with your mom in town is half the battle. Just keep it in the back of your mind and do the best you can.
Jyo and Zef - Thanks so much for the help on roasting vegs. As you can see, I had some for dinner last night and they were great! So much more flavor than steamed.
I stopped by Whole Foods a couple of days ago and picked up a couple of Annie's salad dressings. Haven't tried them yet but glad I have them in the house when I'm ready. I also looked at almond butter and was surprised at how expensive it is plus I read that it was 190 calories per serving which I thought was a lot. So I didn't buy any. Then when I came home, I looked at the natural peanut butter that I have been using and surprise
it is 210 calories per serving. Who would have thought! I have so much more to learn.
but I'll get there.
I did much better yesterday getting my meals in but still need to work on the snacks too.
The old "I want to eat" feeling came back a little late last night while I was watching tv and I was so tempted but hung in there and didn't cave and felt so much better this morning. I'm learning that when those feelings come, they usually don't last too long and do go away.............
Here's hoping you all have a great on plan day today.
! Stay strong 
I know you can do it!
...........if it was just me, it would be easier 
but have to please DH (who as I've mentioned before is tall and thin) too. So after thinking and worrying 
about it most of the morning, I got online and took another look at recipes. Found one that sounded like something he would like and thank the higher power I had all the ingredients and it is on the stove cooking as I type! OMG, I feel so much better
