Good morning! How was everyone's weekend? Mine was relaxing and fun. A full day of scrapbooking on Saturday and a fart-around day on Sunday. I did well all week with eating but on Sunday I was bored/hungry and kept thinking about eating all day. It was a little torturous. I ate a couple extra protein and carb boxes to help stave off the hunger. I still have not had any breads, grains or sugars though. And I even sat right next to a large basket of candy and chocolate for 12 hours scrapbooking without even being tempted! Thank goodness for sugarless gum! Ha! Sometimes I chew as if I'm eating it!
Weighed myself yesterday and was a total of 10 lbs down. Amazing. Hooray for proteins and veggies! My new best friends.
Made a tri-tip for dinner last night and put it over lettuce with red onions, tomatoes, avocado, red bell peppers, craisins, and candied walnuts. Deeeeeelish! Okay so the candied walnuts are probably not allowed on the diet but I had to do it :-o.
What fun meals or recipes have kept you eating healthy this week? Has anyone been continuing to drink alcohol? I stopped entirely b/c of the sugar in wine. I kinda miss it! Especially since Mike bought me a wine membership to Kalyra for Christmas :-o
Okay, some go-to snacks for me this week:
Good Earth Tea (the original spicy blend)
Celery
Almonds
Lo-fat String Cheese
Apples
Pears
Smoothie with frozen blueberries and banana
Slice of deli turkey
Sliced cucumber
Sugarless Gum
What are your go-to snacks? Hope you're all doing well!! Talk to you soon, Kathy
Hi - I'm still drinking a little wine. One glass on Friday and Saturday nights. AND, spirits are carb-free. So, if you like vodka, tequila, gin, etc. Pour it on ice with soda water and a twist and you're not using any carbs!!
