Today got completely screwed up. I got dizzy and faint at work and everyone was worried...ended drinking some orange juice but it was that or smashing my head against the floor. I am just going to keep on moving... I have lost 5 lbs in 7 days on phase 1; some juice won't totally derail me.... it didn't awake some deep craving within me cuz I don't even feel like having more.
oooh, Enit - scary about the dizziness. Hope it all went away. Sounds like low blood sugar?
Phase 2
B- coffee w/ 2% milk. Lara Bar (yeah, pushing the limits on "Beachy").
L - one of my favorite Beachifed things: PIZZA (1 100% whole wheat pita, split in half with a total of 2 Tablespoons tomato paste, 2 Tablespoons grated parmesan cheese and 2 Tablespoons grated mozzarella cheese, plus herbs, fresh garlic and as much spinach as I could balance on top... wonderful! Basically 2 personal-sized spinach pizzas with very thin crispy crust for less than 300 calories and 6 g of fiber ). Cup of tea.
Ss - broccoli and carrots with hummus. Tofurkey rolled up with light cream cheese and green onions.
D - veggie sausage with sauteed cabbage. I'm thinking a big green salad, too.
dessert - Greek yogurt
[stats: 1175 calories, 26 g fiber, 37% carbs/36% fat/26% protein - 114 g carbs (which seems to work well for me; between 100 & 150 grams... 80 g protein (which seems fine, but I am starting a weightlifting program and it stipulates far more calories - 700-900 more than this day - and far more protein - ~60 g more than this day. <sigh>)]

Reason: added fitday stats
B: turkey roll ups (turkey, cream cheese, little guac, onion, cuke, pepper)
L: black bean soup w/sour cream, cheddar, and cilantro
S: cheese stick
D: turkey sausage, red cabbage, leftover kale and cauliflower cass
I made something like the protein ballz! Something similar is also suggested in The New Rules of Lifting for Women, which I am starting (Peanut Butter Snack Bar = protein powder/peanut butter/ground flax seed/sweetener). They are pretty good!
BTW, that book recommends waaaaaaay more calories that I am used to. I know we don't count calories in general but the difference is shocking. If I plan a "good" (for me) SBD day, it will almost always be around 1300-1500 calories. According to this weight-training program, I should be consuming 2000-2200! I'm not sure yet what I am going to do with this information, beyond try to get more protein in my diet (the recommendation is 1 g/lb of body weight, so something like 145 g per day for me! I average less than 100 g.) Honestly, when I am eating "on plan" I have trouble getting in all my planned food, so I don't know how I could eat 25/30% MORE! I just need to find what works for me - clearly I haven't yet!!
Also of note, the macronutrient ratios they recommend are exactly where mine fall on a SBD On Plan day - 40% carbs("whole") : 30% fats ("good") : 30% protein.
Phase 2
B - coffee with 2% milk. Spicy black-eyed peas with an egg on top. Low-sodium V8.
L - Spinach salad with Thai baked tofu (I checked; only 1 g sugar - I was worried about the "Thai" marinade) and flaxseed oil vinaigrette. Tea.
Ss - broccoli with hummus. Celery with Laughing Cow. Tofurkey rolled up with light cream cheese and green onions.
D - Crabmeat-stuffed flounder with a Caesar salad.
dessert - Greek yogurt
exercise - yoga
IF I eat all of this AND add 1 protein ball, that would be 1670 calories with 152 g protein (I don't believe this - fitday has the stuffed flounder at 42 g protein...)
Aspyhxia, I made one of those smoothies yesterday and it was awesome...think I'll have another one today. I got the unsweetened almond milk which I had never tried, and I really liked it, even in my tea later.
I'm going out to lunch with a friend so I'll have to be careful there, don't know where yet.
