Recipe?

Is it the one posted by Schmoodle or your own variation?

My SO made fresh bread today... give me strength to fight another day!

Tomorrow's battle plan:

B: Two hard boiled egg whites with cholula hot sauce
S: (I'm having a hard time with snacks & breakfast, will do some research)
L: Tuna with egg whites, celery & dill relish
S: Peanuts with cholula hot sauce
D: Spinach salad with hot pork tenderloin slices/mushrooms/onions and braised kale

I wish they made sugar substitute Wickle Pickles!
As you can tell, my cravings are all about hot and spicy. My SO laughs about my cholula addiction. I am so thankful I get to have it on this diet!

Phase 1.5 (no grains)

Cabbage beef is in the crockpot for dinner and smells so good. Gosh, the recipe makes a lot so will have to freeze some.

I have a question about plain greek yogurt. Since starting to eat it, I've found so many different brands and a huge difference in the amount of fat and sugar grams in addition to thickness and taste. So far my favorite is Chobani but I believe I've also heard someone mention Fage or Oikos. Any feedback about your favorite and why would be appreciated.

Phase 2

B. oats soaked in unsweetened almond milk w/chopped peaches & strawberries
L. veggie salad w/chickpeas, feta and 1/2 avocado, 1/2 apple
S. 1 piece string cheese
D. Sauteed chickpeas, tomatoes & spinach with garlic & onions

TallandThin, I really like Fage and Trader Joe's brand of nonfat Greek yogurt. They are both nice and thick and creamy, with a mild tang. I like them so well that I eat them plain.
I remember looking at other brands of Greek yogurt, and I'm pretty sure that they were higher in calories, although I could be wrong. But I know there was some reason that I didn't buy them.

I use either Oikos or Trader Joes. Both are cheaper than the Fage brand. The calories are only a difference of 10 & the sugar in it is lactose, so I wouldn't be concerned. The protein gms. are virtually the same and both that I buy are fat free.

S - Planters "South Beach Diet" blend of nuts (I didn't count - maybe 20?)
D - Pizza Burger and some cauliflower
S/D - Peanut Butter Cookies (I made it w/ non-natural PB {I know! I know! It's all I got!} Truvia {although not quite 1/2 cup...I had to open practically all my packets, lol!}, and 1 TBS cocoa powder.) and a glass of 0% organic milk.
