Sorry milk, just saying what I eat to make me think about it and I think it is helpful.

Well, breakfast definitely stuck with me until 3:30 p.m. this afternoon.  Had rest of pesto pasta, fresh from my garden tomato and cheese sandwich, sour cream and cheddar cheese potato chips, bunch of red grapes, tortillas with salsa and sour cream

Had a snack with grapes and a slice of fresh bread with butter.  So that ends up Friday, August 3's food.

You are not alone!    The weekend is my enemy

Yesterday:

B: same as always

L: Vegan burger and chips (lunch out - 700 calories!!!)

D: Burrito with vegan nuggets, salad and salsa

S: Vodka & lemonade + potato chips!  

(Bad, bad girl!)

Today:

B: ditto above

L: salad sandwich with vegan pattie (lunch out again!  no chips this time though!)

D: spaghetti with tomato & veg sauce with "mince"

S: mint slice cookie & sugar free lemonade.  

(much better today... )

I'm hoping that I haven't totally undone all my hard work from this week.  Surely 5 good out of 7 days is better than nothing?  

Back on the wagon hardcore tomorrow.  

[Milk8shake]

Today:

B: same as always

L: see below + vegan snag x 2

D: spaghetti with tomato & veg sauce with "mince"

S: apple and 2 vitaweats with vegemite

[IsaFrench]

breafkast egg and cheese

lunch ; green salad with dressing made with oil from a tin of cod liver + apple cider vinegar,

half of the tin of cod liver, spourted mung beans, sprouted lentils, grated carrots, a few chunck of the meat my kids ate for lunch (all tossed in the salad)

am going to try to be much more reasonnable this week ...

[Amandamarie]

Yesterday-

                Cuban sandwich- avocado, cheese, lettuce, onion, roll

                Starbucks chai

                Fruit smoothie- frozen fruit, banana, probiotics (on antibiotics, yuck!), almond milk

                liquid iron supplement

                Ramen noodle soup, my ds ate most of the noodles

                Mixed green salad with a little cheese and walnuts, small serving ranch dressing

                cheese sandwich- sprouted wheat bread, small amount mayo, and 2 slices cheese

Today so far-   Breakfast-  cereal and almond milk

                                       tea bag chai w/ almond milk- 1 tsp. sugar

                                       1 small piece watermelon

Walking hasn't been enough and I'm still not playing hockey, taking classes,  so I need to be more strict about eating. I need to figure out how many calories I need to stick to,  to lose weight. I'm still nursing my ds, but I don't think I require an extra 500 calories. I'll definitely cut out the cheese. I'm a vegetarian, but soy messes with my hormones. I'll have to figure out another protein source. Maybe beans??   Also skipping the Starbucks chai. Too much sugar and calories.

That looks good! Do you put dressing on it?    

[vermontgirl]

Breakfast: 1 egg scrambled in coconut oil and mixed with kimchi

Some days I have rich coffee.

Snacks: fruit, vegetables and kombucha

Lunch: Vegetables. For this season I am loving fresh cut up tomatoes, sliced cucumbers with the skin, avocado....all sprinkled with salt. Maybe fruit for dessert.

Snacks: Sometimes more veggies and fruit, sometimes celery and hummus, sometimes yogurt, sometimes dried fruit....kombucha!

Dinner: Something kid friendly. I usually like quinoa or rice with meat or beans and lots of veggies. Sometimes I just eat a nice local cheese and some veggies.

I do occasionally eat ice cream in the evenings. Or dark chocolate!

That's sounds much healthier than dressing. I'll have to give that a try.

[Amandamarie]

Today's food     

                      Ran out of cereal so for breakfast-   sprouted wheat sandwich with mixed greens, seitan, and a tsp of ranch dressing

                                                                          teabag chai w/almond milk, tsp of sugar

                                                                          Lunch- heat caused headache, ended up eating a Lara bar and drinking lots of ice water

  Hot and muggy here this week. All I want is ice cream and ice water.  Fruit smoothies are out for the next 3 days because of doctor's tests.

Seriously?  I basically never have dressing - except for like special occasions, like Christmas or something!  Sea salt and cracked pepper is the best, but normal will do!

I think I owe two days worth!  I've eaten the same both days, except today I only had 2 vitaweats, not 4.  

B: Weetbix & Bonsoy

L: Same salad and snags

D: cup of rice and spinach & lentil "curry"

S: apple, 4 vitaweats with peanut butter + can sugarfree lemonade

I have been feeling a little hungry in the evenings, but I am hitting my calorie targets, so I'm hoping it's just my body getting used to eating differently.  

[lilacvioletiris]

Well, Monday through Wednesday were crazy with eating at the convention.

Thursday, back home and "normal"

Breakfast - tator tots with ketchup, cottage cheese, morning star veggie bacon strips

Lunch- apple, banana, potato, cottage cheese, worthington veggie "fri-chik"

Supper - 2 bean and burritos with fresh tomatoes and peppers (from my garden :)), yogurt smoothie frozen popsicle

[Milk8shake]

Yum!!

Yesterday

B: Same

L: Same

D: Quinoa and lentils/tomato/chilli

S: Apple & 2 vita weats w/ PB

Today:

B: Same

L: Quinoa and lentils/tomato/chilli (and some veg*n snags)
