b-overnight oats w/berries and almond butter
l-roasted veggie and goat cheese pasta salad, figgy ball
d-roast beef with tomatoes, lettuch, and sprouts on ww, really big pickle
Rikki - cottage cheese, strawberries, coconut milk, stevia, vanilla extract and a few ice cubes. it's a decadent breakfast
So, today lunch was planned, but not very well. I didn't chop veggies the night before like I usually do, so when lunch rolled around, i was exhausted and didn't do it. I ended up eating a serving of the pasta frittata that I made for my boys (ww pasta, turkey meatballs, broccoli and zucchini in the sauce, and cottage cheese). It wasn't the worst thing I could have done, but I always feel better when I have salad or something light in the afternoon. I'll be skipping the pasta at dinner.
I could explain in great detail why I didn't stick to my plan yesterday and consequently had a crap eating day - but it all boils down to having a surprise super-busy day and not planning ahead for that. Moving on...
Oh and I have so much overload of cucumbers, zucchini and now pears that it is stressing me out I have been freezing some cut up cukes for smoothies and shredded zucchini for bread but the freezer is FULL now.
Phase 2, no grains, almost the same plan as yesterday.
B - coffee with lf milk. Smoothie (with yogurt, blueberries, nectarine, cucumber and lettuce. And psyllium husk)
L - pizza toppings on giant zucchini rounds, simple kale salad (with a cashew vinaigrette from Appetite for Reduction). Iced black tea.
Ss - celery with Laughing Cow light, yogurt with sf pudding added (serious chocolate craving!)
D - Quinoa zucchini lasagna with fresh-picked green beans and cucumber-yogurt salad.
dessert - Pear from our tree, a handful of raw walnuts

hey missfit, as far as a smoothie with all veggies...i haven't tried one that I like, but what about preparing them a different way? there are a lot of us that eat the weekend glow kale salad from the Oh She Glows blog -- it has tons of veggies and is very yummy and filling. It's easy to make ahead too. If you've just been steaming your veggies, try them grilled or roasted.
The Spaghetti Squash and Chard Gratin from Kalyn's Kitchen blog is really, really good too
Thanks again for mentioning this! I didn't have everything for the "glow" salad, but the one I made was still absolutely delicious.
And since you gals told me I can have lemon/lime juice my salad dressings are much yummier!
I'm SO ready for Friday to get here so I can move on to Phase 2. (Especially reading some of your menus!)
