B: 2 eggs with broccoli and cheese
L: 2 chicken sausages, broccoli
S: burger patty with cheese, SF icecream
D: Chipotle burrito bowl with steak, beans, lettuce, cheese, sour cream, and salsa
Could have been better, but having some SF icecream was much better than the Coldstone I was really craving. Didn't have any chips and queso that were floating around either. And, I'm down another 1.5 pounds today- just 2.5 more and I'll be back to where I was before I regained. Amazing how much better I feel when I cut out the junk!
Brunch (because I slept in ) Spinach, feta egg wrap, Iced coffee
s-larabar (if I can find it) or smoothie w/banana, coconut milk, and tofu
d-ww turkey sandwhich with arugula, pequillo peppers, and goat cheese. maybe a salad
s-cottage cheese

s - yogourt with strawberries
s - chicken breast, asparagus, salad

Breakfast: Skipped (really need to find something besides eggs. I keep skipping because I just don't want to eat them)
Lunch: Chipotle burrito bowl with beans, steak, lettuce, cheese and sour cream
snack: almonds and sugar snap peas
snack: think thin bar
dinner:2 bbq chicken thighs, cauliflower au gratin, green beans, glass of milk
Probably didn't need two thighs, especially since I was bad and left the skin on, but I ate dinner later and was really hungry, even after my protein bar. I was up half a pound today, but probably from losing so quickly this week, a little heavier dinner today, and eating dinner a couple hours later than normal.
Plan for the day (yeah - it is 11:30 already)
B: deviled egg
S: deviled egg (Easter you know)
L: grilled chicken, lettuce, tomato, guac, lf cheese
S: sf ice cream (just had to happen)
D: beef vegetable soup, salad, melba toast
Be well -

i was so hungry today!
also, i don't want to jinx it quite yet, but the first few days have gone very very well. i'm excited to keep it going
Hmmm... my post from this morning didn't work. I'm studying in a hospital library with rather fickle wireless internet these days. I guess it helps with procrastination a bit, but here I am anyway
1oftheLuvs, Mmckellen, TwynnB, kmac1196, zeffryn, Sharonej, & TallandThin: Thank you so much! Love you ladies and the on-plan thread!
I was looking through the weights I've recorded on MFP & fitday all the way back to 2003 (been on there since i was 16! ), and I suspect in and around the 160-mark is about where my set-point lies. Glad school is going to finish up soon and I'll get a bit of a break so a can battle it!
Wt: 160.2
B: 1/2 banana & PB on Ezekiel toast.
L: 1/2 a WW tortilla with chicken, feta, tzatziki, tomatoes & cucumbers. Diet Coke.
Sn: Strawberries.
S: Vegetarian lasagna roll-ups.
Shelf - I think I'm dealing with my body's set point as well...though I've never been this low. I'm having quite a time getting below 145. I don't know if I should just accept it and stop trying to lose and just move to maintenance, or if I should try to push through it. I've been doing phase 1 this week to help rid myself of the water weight from Easter and that seems to have helped (had I been doing P1 for the first time and not realized that I was retaining water, I would have been stoked for this 9 lb. loss in just 4 days), but I'm still sitting here at 145. Maybe I'll continue with Phase 1 into next week (the chocolate bunny monster still is in the house) and see if that brings any progress.
