It's Thursday, what are you eating today?

[Dottie]

UD
B: Coffee; had 3 pieces of bacon
morning snack since my calories will be low otherwise: the hungry girl loaded egg rolls - 2 of them made with boneless, skinless chicken thigh instead of pork and shrimp
D: chicken thighs w/pesto and cream, not sure what else, I may have it over a little couscous or brown rice
S: shrimp stir fried with peppers, spinach and onions. I just got my netrition order with orange torani syrup, may see about a sweet and hot dish with it

[cherryhair]

DD
Trying not to eat
Tea/Water/Coffee (maybe)
If I get desperate I'll have instant grits before I go to bed (100 cal)

[Pami]

DD:

going for 0 cals. again, so

Coffee now
Iced tea later

[Alcestis]

DD:

I made chicken/cabbage stir-fry (200) for tonight. Hoping to stick to coffee during the day.
S: Diet Swiss Miss (25)

[TallToriV]

UD:

L, D - not sure

We're traveling today, so I'm really glad I've got *** on my blackberry.

[KeirasMom]

DD

B: Black coffee
L: Cabbage/LC/Imitation crab meat/mushrooms
S: Cucumber/LC
D: ?? Either Lean Cuisine or protein/vegetable of some sort

[Bonnie]

DD

This is the plan, it might change as the day goes by but it will still be under 500:

B: black coffee and then more black coffee
L: 1 egg (70), 2 slices Oscar Mayer pre cooked bacon (35) 1 slice Orowheat lite ww toast with smidgen of butter (65)
D: Buddig beef (90), 2 cup mixed green salad (15), 2 T FF Ranch dressing (30)
S: SF gelatin cup (5)

Per ***: 310 calories, 15 net carbs

[gharkness]

DD (almost a relief, after yesterday - I need to plan my UD's better)

B: coffee and awesome peach tea
L: either nothing or Almond Milk Latte
D: Sweet Potato Soup and maybe Carbmaster Yogurt

That puts me at ~260, so there's plenty of wiggle room. I don't necessarily want the Sweet Potato soup, even though it tastes good, but I don't want it to go to waste, so I will use it first if I get **at all** hungry.

I am finding that the Almond Milk Latte doesn't make me hungry, but it tastes good and is satisfying. But once I start actually EATing, then I start to get hungry. Still, I don't want to fast entirely, so that's my plan for today, so far.

I have found that I really prefer to have M-W-F as DD's and only 2 UD's during the work week. Not sure, though, whether I'm willing to insert an MD in there just yet to maintain that schedule. I may just suck it up and do it as planned for a while longer.

[WWC]

DD for me

Breakfast--coffee, 1 fat free Fage greek yogurt. 2.5 Tbls. SF coffee creamer
Lunch--netrition protein shake
Dinner--chicken broth simmered with 3Tbls. egg white, protein shake
lots and lots of water.

I was very happy with how much better my appetite was controlled during my UD after my first DD Wednesday.

[Knittering]

DD

But once I start actually EATing, then I start to get hungry.

Me too. And I can't fast without starving my little one along with me. Bah!

Coffee w/h&h
Salmon w/cream cheese
Miracle noodles and chicken with Thai peanut sauce

[mykidsteacher]

UD today. You may notice apple pie on that lunch--no it's not paleo. My MIL makes an amazing apple pie. She brought one over last night, on a DD. I WILL break paleo for my MIL's apple pie. LOL. And it is so nice to know I CAN have it because today is an UD (and that made it no problem to pass on last night). I'll just have a sliver, because sugar and flour mess with me if I have too much of it, but I am SO looking forward to it. I might even get crazy and add a small dollop of whipped cream.


b--eggs, sausage, decaf coffee black
sn--coc oil bark, probably some cashews somewhere through the day
lunch--salad, leftover veggie beef soup, apple pie
supper--not sure yet, likely meat, veggies and a sweet potato

Might make some paleo banana bread if I need more calories.

[kel7298]

UD here

[Alcestis]

Just checking in here because it's that time of day when I really want to eat. I think it's psychological - I don't feel physically hungry, but my brain is saying, "Eat, eat, eat!!" If I can hold out until 2pm, I think I'll be over the hump and sail into evening so I can enjoy my DD food then.

[belfrybat]

UD here.

B: Coffee w/ cream, fried egg, sausage, LC biscuit
L: Navy bean soup w/ ham, salad w/ dressing
Sn: Carbmaster yogurt
D: Pork chops w/ LC gravy, LC veggies and butter
Sn: Pork rinds, salsa, wine

This should come to 1700-1800 calories if I used plenty of butter and cream.

[bkwrm]

DD

B: nada
L: ham, turkey, swiss sandwich (175)
S: small can tuna (110)
D: Progress Light Italian Meatball Soup (160)

That's 445 total. I may add a skinny cow bar (100) for desert.

[Beeb]

DD and feeling YUCKY!!

Today is going to be an "eat if I really have to" type of day. So far I've had one piece of toast w/better n' peanut butter and coffee/tea. I have some homemade turkey soup planned but that will be if I feel like making it later.

Well, my JUDDD DD appetite suppression is back, that's for sure!!

[sophiethecat]

I was going to do a DD until evening and then go to FD, but... *edited to spare you my negativity from a bad mood from some things that happened today*.... I'm just not hungry now.

So it's going to be a regular JUDDD DD.

Been a rough week...my TOM & DD is sick, so we're feeling miserable together. Not gonna weigh this week. Today's DD was easy - wish they were all this easy! Yesterday was a different story. Was out most of the day and I didn't count anything (smack my hand). Tomorrow, I am going to make a real conscious effort to reign in those calories. Thinking I'll drop 'em down to 1600 and just see what happens.

B: coffee & CM (65 cals)
L: 2 eggs, sm. tomato, 1T parmesan (222 cals)
S: La Mousse au Fromage Blanc sur fruits (61 cals)
D: Yogurt & SF Jello (78 cals)

Total Calories: 426

[Kissa]

Cracked at 10 pm and had some WW crackers and philly light.

UD for me and its been great.
I ate a banana and oatmeal for breakfast!

Im aiming for 1800. I need a couple hundred more calories. I may have peanut butter on toast later!

Im not looking forward to getting on the scale in the morning but I have to.
