lighten up
 

lusana- don't be too hard on yourself. it was the 4th of july. i gave myself permission to go outside the rules. just get right back in the game now. looks like you had a good day yesterday :agree:

the salad before meals is to fill you up and really, really does help with portion control.

my day was a little off. i made the 7.5 hour drive to chicago yesterday early morning. so i had 4 cups of 1/2 decaf 1/2 caffeine cups of coffee over a 3 hour period. doctors orders to have coffee. i think i did well to make it only half caffeine. mc donalds didn't have salads until 11am and i was ready for one at 10am dang! i had a diet rite :nono:
and then i waited til i got to my destination to eat and i was ravenous, but had salad and a grilled sirloin burger.

for reward meal- it was my mom's homemade mexican food! oh yum. i didn't have the flour tortillas and just had a handful of corn chips. the stuff from la tiendita is nothing like tostitos ... i will tell you. so much better. i had a little piece of cheeesecake smothered in fresh strawberries and a diet rite. today i will hang in there and be strict. :cool:

Lusana
Don't worry about it!! The time to worry is when you've been on program for a few months and don't plan!!! Slip ups are bound to happen when you start and events take place. There's some good strategies in the overview thread here.

At a barbeque, I do a CM first and then when the desserts come out I do a huge RM!! People think I'm a pig but I'm happy. And on plan!! It does take some planning!!! I think more and more people are doing away with veggies at bbqs. You should always bring a veggie dish.

What a good day
 

Hi everyone I wasnt around yesterday but today I have had a good day.
By the way thanks for your support, I am really going for maintaining my weight at the moment so the slip ups are not too devastating.

today I ate

CM1 corned beef

RM large salad,mayo,bar-b-q chicken,2 small doughnuts,2 small
choclate biscuits,snack size snickers,milky tea,milky coffee

I am really enjoying allowing myself the treats and maintaining weight at the sama time,actually I have lost around 2lb since restarting 9 days ago
I may have a decaff+cream >15 before bed,I am hungery and love it so much.

br. eggs and bacon

lunch. ham and turkey salad with ranch

rm soft tacos with lc tortillas
nachos with keto chips
diet rootbeer float with le carb icecream
(try to not make all rms carb loaded)

Hi Y'all
 

I hope everyone is well and CAD'ing effectively.

Anais and Zule thanks for your input it really helps,Rosche how do you do it I am ashamed to reveal my menu after reading yours :lol:

Well my intentions were good but I didnt manage balance today :rolleyes:


Cm 1 little chicken breast,little fried corned beef

Cm 2 1/2 egg mayo+1 tsp corn,4 slices bacon+cream cheese dip

Rm chicken,peas,gravy,few french fries,4oz bar areo,slice key

I do not understand about peas not being a comp veg,I eat the young ones which have less carbs per 100g than green beans oh well we will see tommorrow.
:wiggle:

head
 

making the drive back to duluth today. the sky is gray. yesterday we had a morning of clear skies and my sister and i walked 2 miles. my first exercise since the surgery!!

cm= 3 breakfast sausage and 2cups mixed green salad w/ no fat raspberry dressing

cm= mixed green salad w/caesar dressing and a sirloin burger, 1 sugar free hershey chocolate

rm= filet mignon, roasted greenbeans zucchini onion and portabello mushrooms, salad, smirnoff ice, lactose free ice cream and caramel syrup

Anais
I don't think you can have the raspberry dressing. It depends how many carbs it has. Also you can't have the sf chocolate at CM. Otherwise it looks good.

Hi everyone well done anais-being away must have been hard.

I realised today I am not really phsically craving sweet stuff,I dont even really want it but emotionally I feel as though if I dont have it at RM I will lose control and binge later.Its good to know as it shows one day maybe I will balance my RM :lol:

CM chicken breast,mustard mayo,small homegrown tomato

CS coffee 1oz cream < 15

RM lamb mince,boiled egg,green beans,3 new potatoes
2 tblsp corn,frankfurter,mayo (potato salad)
1.5 oz chocolate,small doughnut,2 bites key lime pie

(getting better :agree: )

CS coffee 1oz cream <15 OOPS! :nono:

See and you thought you would never want just a small piece of chocolate!!! And you caught yourself with the second coffee with cream!! Good work!!!

Lusana: I used to have that feeling too, that if I didn't eat a treat at RM time I'd lose control later in the evening. It has pasted tho'. Keep up the great work.
