Good luck everybody

Thanks again, Z!

I've had pretty much the same thing today as yesterday - I'll update with my totals later. I'm off to the movies tonight, and it's going to be soooo hard not to get popcorn. I've already put a pack of Sour Patch Kids in my purse to keep me going, and I might even put 1 serving of my low fat salt & vinegar chips in a ziploc bag and bring those too to help curb any salt cravings (and since my sodium is only something like 500mg as of right after supper).

Hi mommy*duke - your day looks great with lots of yummy stuff!

Here's how my day ended up looking:

7am: coffee
12pm: 1 serving rice with 1 cup baby spinach, 2 tbsp fat free yogurt and balsamic vinegar + 2 sugar free cookies for dessert
4pm: 1 ginger cookie ( I had just baked them and they smelled so good and were warm from the oven - I couldn't resist!)
5pm: 1.5 servings pasta with sauteed leeks, zucchini and mushrooms + parmesan + another ginger cookie for dessert
9:30pm: hot chocolate (I was at the movies, and since it was a cold night this appealed to me), 3 tortilla chips dipped in Salsa (stolen from my friend)

2 cups RRL tea, 1 cup peppermint tea, 3 cups CL

Calories: 1294
Protein: 45.5g (but over 10g of that is from veggies)
Sodium: 749mg

Thanks, Zan!

Mommy Duke! Your day sounded yummy! So glad you're joining us! I love this thread b/c I always get new food ideas from you all and it helps to know I'm not alone in this diet!

Mocha, I warm cookies out of the oven!!! I wouldn't have been able to stop at one, though! Good for you!

Here's what I had yesterday:

• 2 C. black tea w/rice milk

• Sautéed leeks, portobellos, basmati rice & a bit of pecorino-romano cheese, Salad w/yogurt thousand island dressing

• Air-popped popcorn w/pecorino-romano cheese, weight watcher latte ice cream bar, Zevia cream soda (this had stevia in it but didn’t have other chemicals that other soda pop has in it so I drink this sometimes instead…hope the stevia here and there doesn’t work too hard against the sway)

• 3 C. Peppermint Tea, 2 C. RRL Tea

It's okay if you're eating a lot...If you're lowering your cals, protein, fat, etc., you're swaying, girl! Your kettle corn is from T.J.'s, isn't it? I that stuff and it works well w/the sway!

We went to IKEA today and among other things, I bought a grill pan since I've been trying to grill veggies in my panini press. It was just making them soggy... I can't wait to break it out and grill!
