Yesterday... 2cp of coffee with creamer, 10am fat free yogurt, 1pm CL w/fiber and about 4 bites of leftover Chinese food, 4pm fat free yogurt, and at 7pm CL w/fiber some buttered bread 1/2cp of carrots and 4 bites of chicken. I drink about 1cp of water every 1 1/2 - 2 hrs. If I had to guess the calorie count was about 1200 but I was so full.

Today will be about the same but for dinner we will have pasta (the boys will have sausage, they love it so much I let them eat mine)

I did a little to good loosing weight so I added a few sugar free snacks for this next week... I am afraid of loosing weight to fast.

I only cheated on 2 meals last week and they really weren't that bad. I ate a small amount of chicken panang and some nachos. Not much meat but the fat and salt were high.

Found a promising salad dressing…It’s from the Panera Bread place (not sure if anyone knows this place) but now they sell the dressing in our grocery stores. It’s called Panera Raspberry Vinaigrette and here’s the info for 2 T.:
Cals - 20
Fat - 0
Sodium -45 mg
Protein – 0

While I’ve tasted the dressing and it’s not my favorite, it’s definitely okay and maybe something to use when I need to keep fat, sodium &/or cals low for a meal.

I love, love, love salad and eat a HUGE one at least once a day but I’m always getting bored w/the dressings I buy or make. Does anyone have a good one I can try that’s girl-sway friendly???

Good for you, PP! When will you next TTC? That weightloss is great and you're smart for not wanting to lose too much too fast.

My next cycle starts 11/23... the night we drive 4hrs to spend 4 days with my amzing IL's and my horrible SIL. I have to be good with my diet until then because I going to have a 4 day affair with a 4lb Honey Baked Ham, and I don't plan to share! I am also going to enjoy my stepmoms Cranberry Jello Mold (sugarfree jello and fatfree yogurt).

I can't believe I lost 6lbs in about 4 1/2 days... I am adding skinfree apple and pear to my day and a few sugarfree cookies. For the extra calories and my POT was to low. so far it is hard but in a few days I should be ok.

Sounds great! Just stay away from your SIL and all will be good! …I know, easier said than done!

Wowzuhs! You must have had the flu or something (which I had last week but didn’t lose much weight unfortunately). I'm slightly jealous...I need to lose 6-7 lbs. Hope all is well. You’re doing great!

I have had a sore throat and a little cough but no flu.... My cals were way to low. I hate loosing weight so fast because it makes me feel sick and lazy. I added a few more things and I will work up from there a little as needed. I just finished eating 1cp of fat free yogurt and 1/2 a pear... I can't belive I feel full.

Kinda hard to avoid the SIL she is in the next room and everyone spends the days watching her child. I just wish she would parent her kid because I am tired of my boys learning from her... Why do I have to scold a child that isn't mine, while her parents are right there laughing at what she just did! They yelled at her once last year for opening her mouth with pasta in it but they didn't say a thing when she threw a hard plastic ball at my sons head (he was 2 1/2). And my SIL better not dare try to insult us again for given our kids meat. When her daughter wanted some ham she told her "you don't want to eat baby piggy"... my son is old enough to understand this now and we tell him about eating meat but we don't use the words baby.

I really want to hide in the closet this Thanksgiving... with my kids and the ham!
