Planning for Thursday, Nov. 30
 

Morning Jill!

just a minute .....

I'm back to cut and paste my lunch bucket (actually it's a plastic shopping bag)

In my bag, I've packed pineapple, cc, protein pancakes, ww crackers ... at work I can get individual packets of peanutbutter (portion control). I'm having trouble with the math but I think that's four mini-meals ... I'll have a bathtub full of greens for supper and I'm not sure what protein, but I'd better bump up the veggies.

Brekky
porridge with egg and honey

Snack
Protein pancakes and an apple

Lunch
turkey and hummus

Snack
Total 0% greek yoghurt

Kickboxing

Snack
Soreen

Kickboxing

Dinner... :chin: Maybe sausages I bought some as a treat at the weekend... :devil:

Breakfast: porage (whole oat groats), berries, almonds, wheatgerm, cc, skimmed milk. (2F, I'm a bodybuilder! I need my protein! ;) CC is a perfect low-fat choice!)

Snack: apple and cc

Dinner: bacon and lentil soup, homemade wholemeal bread, banana

Snack: apple and cc (it works for me!)

Tea: turbot, apple and mushroom sauce with a bit of creme fraiche, brown rice or potatoes, greens (probably cabbage), carrots

How does the CC go in porridge? Does it just melt? Do you whip it up or what? I still don't think I'd have it with shredded wheat... Although I do like it on Ryvitas :T

It doesn't really melt. It's just there, cottage-cheese-like. You can mix it in. You can choose whether to eat it with the berries, or with the oats, or with both. It's good. :yes: And it's the same with Shredded Wheat. And as you're eating it, you think: 'I am such a healthy bodybuilder. Good for me. I will succeed today' or other uplifting thoughts. IMHO. (Um, that uplifting bit doesn't always work. :o )

I know we're all different. :lol:

:lol: Ok... I might try it... :chin:

Yesterday, I was perfect up until I got home from work. Junk food city! Today I'll try for a perfect day for the entire day.

oatmeal, peaches
yogurt
brown rice, boca burger, green beans
apple
brown rice, black bean chili

exercise - at least 30 minutes of something!

Ok gals I need all of your willpower today! I am going out w. a girlfriend from work out to our favorite Indian place and they have a lunch buffet! I need everyone's positive energy and thoughts that I CAN and WILL use portion control. My plan is to use lettuce as a base on the plate instead of the white rice, eat nothing fried, limit to 1/2 piece of the yummy naan bread, and skip the desert they have out. I hope I can do this!!!!

B: 6oz yogurt (80cal), 1 sm apple (50cal), 1 med banana (120cal)

L: Indian lunch (500cal)

S: 1/2 kashi bar if I'm hungry (which I hope I won't be) (70cal)

D: lean cuisine pizza (280cal)

1 cup skim milk
No time for apple and was feeling really full after grapes.

L - 1/4 cup brown rice + roasted/steamed beans
1 8 oz container ff yogie
1 banana

I hope to be good today, argh, my weigh in is gonna go so bad on Saturday, and I really wanna see one more pound go, lol

I dont think I am going to work today, blah... I dunno, ill come back later with a better plan

Silverbirch, I'm not sure about CC and shredded wheat, but that apple and mushroom sauce with a bit of creme fraiche sure does sound good! Wish my SO would eat mushrooms. Hmmm, maybe I could make it for lunch one day.
