UD for me but I had to try out a recipe on Linda's site: Better than boxed pancakes and they were GOOD! I doubled the recipe and had two. :-) Yummy.

BTW, after my hungry DD yesterday I woke up today realizing I was dreaming something funny: In my dream I was in line for a buffet and they started you off with a huge waffle ice cream cone and you could fill it with whatever you wanted so I filled it with cream puff cream (I know, wow!) and then I saw an old BF in line and was embarrassed with my ginormous cone in my hand as he and his buddy snickered at my gluttony. Lol. Then I woke up...bummed I didn't get to see what else I could have at the buffet! I think I must've been hungry.

But I let myself have a small square(yes, it's a DD) but at least I don't feel guilty like I binged.

I estimated cals for it, and it's probably 100.

I love what JUDDD has been able to do for my metabolism. I have great UDs.

But, I do good DDs too, to pay for it. Yesterday just over 300 calories, although usually they're more in the 500+ calorie range.

Edited: Oh, I will also add, I may not be able to eat all of my supper tonight. But if I'm not hungry enough to get in these calories, you can be sure I will manage the pineapple sherbet. LOL

OH! Now I get it! Duh...

I don't even know how that happened. I'll go erase one of those. LOL Thanks.

[kimmarie]

DD for me

Breakfast: coffee with 3 T half and half
Lunch: atkins shake
Dinner: 2 salmon muffins
snack later tonight: Broth and veggies

Total: 418 calories plus snack for total of about 500. Hope I can stick to it

[betty301]

I finished the day off with some sweet n sour shrimp/cabbage combo.

Still very hungry and have some cals left. Seriously considering some oat bran with gobs of Cinnamon.

I got up to 860 cals today. 700 if I don't have oat bran. I figure if I stay within 600-900cals I'm good. And actually I'd rather start in the upper range to save some wiggles room??

[lcklass]

Figure I'll jump on in ... day one for me - an UD - I normally try and stay around 1800 calories, even though the JUDDD website said I should eat 2200 (I am a big girl lol ). I know some days I have no issues eating that much, but today was a struggle to get to the 1800. According to ******, I'm at 1755 cal and 37 net carbs.

Breakfast: egg/sausage quiche (no crust); lc pumpkin bread; coffee/cream/davinci syrup
Snack: coffee/cream/davinci syrup
Lunch: chicken salad on la tortilla; carrots
Snack: coffee/cream/davinci syrup
Dinner: Turkey breast; roasted turnips; green salad w/ranch dressing

[SoHappy]

Hey, lcklass! Your menu looks delicious, and it's nice to see you here!

I look forward to reading more of your posts as these next days and weeks go by, and cheering you on to good weight loss and increased health!

Welcome!

[Speck333]

Well, I sort of screwed up today but not too bad. Not feeling well, I gave in to some things I probably shouldn't have. I was supposed to have a medium day which should be 1100 calories for me (and I wanted to stay under 50 carbs). I decided to log everything. I ended up at 1383 cals and 60 net carbs. Oh well.
I logged my down day plan for tomorrow, and it comes out at 650 cals and 28 net carbs, which is good enough.

[sophiethecat]

If it were me, I'd definitely do a good Up Day tomorrow. By holding low yesterday at about 800 calories, and then today at only about 643 calories, that's two days in a row of not much to eat. You don't want your body to notice that you're starving. In case anything in your brain is thinking of lowering your metabolism because of the famine you are apparently in, you can eat a lot (Up Day) tomorrow as a way to signal your brain that there is no need to slow the metabolism down to prevent you from starving in this famine... because there isn't any famine, and you eat a whole lot and prove that there is plenty of food available for you. LOL

There is something about eating at the high and then low, high and then low, that forces the body to lose weight, at the same time it seems to trick the brain into keeping the metabolism revved up pretty well.

Sounds like you did a real good job today. Enjoy your UD tomorrow. You deserve it.

[Mommie22boys]

Today was an UD...

B: coffee w/hwc, 2 eggs, 3 sausages, a buttered, toasted cinnamon raisin thin (626)
L: grilled cheese Sammy w/ thin apple slices, turkey, lettuce, mayo & Bavarian style mustard, also a slice of horseradish cheddar and 1/4 of a toffee crunch cookie (527)
S: 1 Reese's PB pumpkin (170)... I felt sick to my tummy after that. Coincidence?? Prolly not which is a bummer, as they used to be a big fave of mine.
D: small portion chicken Alfredo w/ French cut green beans (238)
S: CocoPop w/ sour cream/mayo dip (146)
S(yeah, another one, lol): coffee w/ coffee mate (144)

Grand total of 1851.

No famine here!

[emky]

Up Day!

Breakfast: 2 1/2 pieces bacon and a low-fat choco/pumpkin muffin I whipped up.
Lunch: 85% Dark Chocolate Bar
Dinner: small plate roast w/ mushrooms and A-1 sauce, pumpkin "custard" (another creation I made up spur of the moment)

I also cleaned all day for work- 9 1/2 hours total. I was moving the whole time; I'm sure I burned a pretty decent amount of calories

[pooticus]

Sunday was a DD for me. I experimented with eating 3square meals. I've found in the past that eating just makes me hungrier. So last time I did JUDDD I fasted until dinner on DDs then ate a normal 500cal or less meal. I would usually try to keep it in the 400 range so I could have a square or two of Lindt chocolate at night before bed. And this time is no different. I was hungry and preoccupied with my next meal. I'm still going to try to eat during the DD except on Friday and see if I can just retrain my mind.

Sunday DD Menu:

Brekky:
Decaf Coffee Black, unsw
6Tbsp AllTheWhites Egg Omelette
