I had a similar problem yesterday Jenn. With the heat and being at a small town fair I just didn't eat enough though I ate as much as I wanted hungerwise. Today is an at home day so I'll have a perfect on plan day. That always makes me feel better.

3: cookie dough hummus and 1/2 apple
4: chicken, broccoli and brown rice bake; spinach salad

I had a change of lunch plans. MY usual farm stand had daikons available so I pulled my spiraler out and made amazing low carb pad thai. I love summer veggies.

Zeff - did you post that cookie dough hummus recipe? Sounds like something I should try :)

D. Morningstar tomato & basil burger patty on romaine

S: banana with peanut butter
L: chicken burrito with salad
D: cereal ( I have really been craving cereal!)

Tomorrow I am making whole wheat pancakes and bacon for breakfast and a eggplant and pasta dish for dinner...yummy!

Warning: The following 3 days of menus may include food porn.

My husband and I are just back from a weekend up in Park City where we went to celebrate our anniversary, which is tomorrow. We ate off plan every day, but made better choices than we probably would have in the past and didn't eat in excess. I'm considering this weekend as practice for maintenance. :)

I'm going to do about 3 days of Phase 1, just to get in the grove again and control any possible cravings.
