[bluebonnet22]

My plan is a bit low on calories for today so I might try to add in some empty calories like soda or italian ice if I'm hungry.

"breakfast" : coffee with a little creamer
lunch: custom sushi roll with cream cheese, avocado, jalapeno and eel sauce, seaweed salad
afternoon "snack" : 8 ounces of illy skim mocachino
dinner: homemade fried rice with pineapples and red peppers, 3 small salted caramel cookies, 1/2 a bottle of wine

1193 calories, 28 grams of fat, 22 grams of protein

Yup, this. It would be hard to fit in much pb on LE, have you looked into things like pb2? It's peanut butter powder without the fat and you can mix it with things to make it spreadable.

this is for my friend and I did not remember what it said on my sway plan! You def can't eat anything, LE is hard but once you get into it and your meals are set then it is easier!!

So yesterday was the day of the all you can eat Chinese, AND I didn't exercise...

I had 2 coffees with whole milk in the morning, I had a veggie stew with a piece of toast for lunch and then the buffet. I pretty much decided that I would eat as much and whatever I wanted and I would then log it later. I had about 4 pancakes with crispy duck, quite a lot of prawns and butterfly prawns, some deep fried calamari, a very small amount of chicken and some roast duck. The rest was rice, stir fried veggies etc etc. I had a lot to eat. And I also had some yummy ice cream with chocolate sauce and 2 other desserts. Yum. We ate around 530-630 and then I met up with a friend at 8 and had a bottle of white wine (that was my LE decision of the day, I had white wine rather than red lol)

So I guess around 3000 cals, 90-100g protein perhaps and 90g fat?

I haven't been posting but I have been watching, frankly because it is too hard for me to reach these limits, as I am always under and on days that I don't care I am over. For instance Tuesday I only had a cup of coffee at work and water (wasn't hungry and I don't like to eat when I am not hungry, not a full on meal anyway) got home around 6pm and I figured I should eat before I started my workout, so I made two fried eggs, on white bread with two pieces of bacon and some jam. By 10pm I realized that I needed something more so I ate french fries and icecream (and not a lot). There is no way I made it to 1800 calories.

Hi married the thing is, these are targets and we can only do our best. I actually feel bad that I am constantly over. Easier said than done sometimes but we just need to do our best, keeping the targets in mind. In a way if am glad I've been over as I have maintained weight rather than losing. Now I'm at my family's this week and petrified of gaining! Oh well lol. Are you managing to maintain weight?

Today's plan:

Breakfast : coffee with creamer
Lunch: going to a picnic with my DS so a sandwich with cookie butter, 1/3 a banana, cinnamon and honey and kettle pop chips on the side

Dinner : 1/2 bottle of wine, 2 slices cheese pizza, 1/2 cup of caramel low fat ice cream

1514 calories, 41 grams (30% fat), 40 grams protein.

Not so healthy of a day, but at least it's in limits I guess?

Honestly I have no clue, I don't have a scale, the last time I was weighed ws back in Jan at my doctors office. LOL I will buy one eventually. I tend to lose weight very easily, which is why I didn't work out before this. So it's not hard to drop a few pounds, I am going to try to make sure to drop pounds a few in May.
As far as it being guidelines, I understand that, but when I am so under, I feel bad, I ave no idea why but I also don't need to write it down just to have people tell me that I should eat more, kwim?
