snack: same
lunch: spinach salad with tunafish
snackistachios

I also started the 16th and I am not sure why, but I am hungry all the time! I have to find more snacks to eat, that's for sure!!
I usually have an egg in the morning
snack: celery with laughing cow cheese and hummus
lunch: tuna salad (huge salad!)
snack: Jello cup (usually 2)
Dinner: Last Night it was part of a pork roast and tonight will be salmon.
I am cooking an artichoke right now and will have some cashews as well. But I know it's working, but I am just always hungry now...
Sarah, please remember pistachios and other nuts are limited to one serving a day. Chicken wings are not on the food list. You also must eat 4 1/2 cups of good vegetables - not just salad.
Steph, you are not eating enough.
Everyone: Please review the Revised Phase I Food List in the FAQ section and the other stickies in there. Vegetables are important and so is DAIRY! Where is the milk?
I agree with Ruthxxx, you should never be hungry Steph b/c otherwise you'll eventually just throw in the towel.
Eat a ton, just of good stuff. Make sure you eat 2 cups full of vegs at lunch and dinner but make them fun veggies-garlic broccoli, go to the recipe section and make the laughing cow aflredo sauce over cauliflower, spinach spicy tomatoe casserole, etc etc
Breakfast: Scrambled Eggs, V-8, Coffe with 1% Milk and Sweet and low
Snack - String Cheese
Lunch Big Salad, Oil and Vinegar dressing, turkey breast slice
Snack: Cashews
Dinner: Will be Boneless, Skinless Turkey Breasts, and a spaghetti squash "fake pasta" made with tomatoes, onion, and garlic.
Dessert: Riccotta with cocoa.
Thanks for the advice to eat more! I thought milk was off limits the first two weeks? I am headed to the stickies right now though to get some more info!!!
Last night I actually went out to dinner at Chili's and made good choices and I feel great about it (it is the small victories). But I did notice when I was picking up some groceries at Walmart I was craving everything sweet. I didn't give in, but I am hoping these cravings will diminish as I go on through Phase 1.
I hope everyone has a great day!

I know the Slimfast shake is handy but Dr. A. does not want us to use commercial shakes in Phase I - too processed. There are a couple of shake recipes in the Recipe Forum. You could also make a yummy eggnog or other sort of milkshake. I do a strawberry one with sf Jello for flavour.
hey wildlife,
my dh works at Chili's and I've yet to eat there since hitting the beach, mind if I asked what you had? I love their southwest eggrolls-wrapped in starch and soaked in oil, lol
