This is to challenge yourself to lose weight before Easter. There is almost 4 weeks before Easter, plenty of time for us to get busy LOSING!!! We can post our goals and weightloss on this thread!
Well since March 6 I have lost a total of 5.5 pounds. I guess I got a kick start in the begining because usually the most that I can lose is a pound a week.
black or green Sher!!! I usually eat the green kind with the cute little chunk of red stuff in the middle!! Love these chopped up on my salad with blue cheese or ranch dressing!!! Yummy, now I'm hungry!
Breakfast: 2 bites of cold chicken
Lunch: slice of meatloaf
Dinner: BLEW IT!!! I ended up taking Thursday night as my free day because my dad made potato casserole....acckk...I had NO self control.
Oh well, there is more to life than just dieting! I'll get right back on the wagon for the rest of the weekend. Oh yes, did I mention he made Lemon pie???????????hehehe
The lbs. are starting to come off again. I'm down a total of 14 and I have 4 more to go to meet my Easter Challenge!
My menu for today:
B--bacon, scrambled eggs, decaf coffee and 1/2 and 1/2
L--1/2 avocado with seafood salad
D--celery and cream cheese garlic dip, salmon with tartar sauce
Water all day.
Questions for low carbers: are any of you ldrinking metamucil? I have a spoonful in my water every a.m. and also take a multi-vitamin.
I am getting some leg cramps at night---memories of being pregnant--so I'm thinking that I need more potassium. I used to eat a banana every day with my cereal). Anyone else have this issue?
Jeanne, I do the multi-vitamin plus I also take a potassium supplement everyday. I just started the supplement about three days ago because I am so exhausted feeling. I guess this way of eating can lower potassium levels and one of the first signs can be tiredness and leg cramps. They also suggest sprinkling your food with morton lite salt. As far as the metamucil, I am not needing it. I can not believe how often I need to run to the little girls room!
BTW: you are doing SUPE R on the weight loss! My loss is not near what yours is, but I can feel a difference in the way my clothing fits.
I concocted an OP soup this weekend and thought I'd share it. I know most people only eat soup in the winter, but I love it year round.
This is my version of cream of chicken soup:
Bring 2 cans of chicken broth to a boil. Stir in a small carton of heavy whipping cream. Add chopped green onions and diced chicken. I like black pepper and garlic powder added to mine.
When I make it again, I am going to add some salsa to it to make a chicken tortilla soup(sans the tortilla of course!)
