Yum - I think I'm going to come and spend my UD with you today, Alcestis! Had non-fat greek yogurt with granola for breakfast, lunch will be packed as I'm going to a lecture (whole wheat pita with chicken and mayo and a banana). Have to give dinner some thought - maybe a curry. Loving this flexibility after 8+ years of LC!

Alcestis · 03-06-2012, 05:17 AM

Jan, I'll head up to Boston - I love curry!!

KeirasMom · 03-06-2012, 05:24 AM

First ever MD

B: Mug brownie and 1 C 0% Greek yogurt
L: Guacamole turkey burger
D: Not sure yet, will have around 600 calories left

sophiethecat · 03-06-2012, 06:05 AM

I pretty much ate an UDs worth of calories last night between 5 and 10 p.m.

So I'm thinking about instead of continuing my FD today as I usually do on MUDDD, that I will do another DD until evening and then start FD again. I've done that before, it's sort of another type of IF where you're fasting or mostly fasting for a set number of hours and then your eating period starts again and you do this daily. Except I do it for maybe a couple days and then go on with the real rotation. Just another way I mix things up sometimes. I'll think about it.

Anyway, so far I'm having Irish B'fast mixed with green tea + raw honey.

darlingnikki · 03-06-2012, 06:06 AM

DD
b-grapefruit 96
l skinny B and greek yogurt 98
D-shrimp and salad 200
s- protein shake after workout 95
under 500

MintQ8 · 03-06-2012, 06:30 AM

UD

B: 2 slices of soy & linseed toast, peanut butter & marmite (sorry Alcestis)
S: Skinny Flat White coffee
L: 2 slices of soy & linseed bread, slice of ham & cheese - as cheese on toast
S: Skinny Flat White Coffee & half a slice of carrot cake
D: Pasta Ametriciana & some parmesan cheese
S: Strawberry Ice Lolly

A good, in control UD!!!

DD80 · 03-06-2012, 06:36 AM

UD and I'm STARVING today. Yesterday was a very hungry DD, even with 700 or so cals. Down to 171.2 today though, which is a new low, so maybe I'm finally breaking my stall!

B: Leftover pizza, TJ's herb/garlic crust w/ tomatoes, spinach, mushrooms, mozz, and goat cheese - ooh with homemade roasted red pepper/tomato sauce.
L: Leftover spaghetti with homemade vodka sauce (made w/ half/half) and mini meatballs
S: Cookies!
D: Not sure yet... Have some leftover loaded mashed potatoes, so I'll work those in.

LightlyStarched · 03-06-2012, 06:36 AM

Down day.

Just planning on three Designer Whey/almond milk drinks.

Scotty · 03-06-2012, 07:01 AM

DD
coffee with ff hnh and splend
cabbage & a bit of shredded carrot sauteed with a bit of mushroons and simmered in broth with soy sauce and balsamic. Laughing cow lite French onion melted in. Tasty, but not enough!

Probably some shrimp for supper

Broth and V-8 if I need it, and some coffee in the afternoon.

Planning on 350 cals..

boring.

KathyL · 03-06-2012, 07:05 AM

Today is supposed to be an UD but after this morning's revolting weigh in I'm tempted to fast. BUT I fasted yesterday so I shouldn't do it again today. But that weigh in! I thought my scale was broken. :/

If I eat.....

Breakfast - steak and eggs
Lunch - caesar salad maybe
Dinner - chicken fajita

Hi Kathy, sorry the scales hurt you today!

They will most definitely go up and down on JUDDD.

There will be water gains and losses, particularly if there is sugar/carbs consumed, but it will go away again. Many of us found a type of equilibrium once our bodies adjusted to some carbs again after a strict LC woe.

I encourage you to eat today. It's supposed to be an UD, and you need to re-fuel. Your menu sounds great. Enjoy it.

The water will come off again. Fat will leave too, if you keep following the JUDDD rotation. You've probably heard this before - that fat cells loose their fat during WL but fill up with water as a type of place-holder - in case they get to refill with fat again soon. But when they don't, there is a release of water from the cells as they collapse. So at times when it looks like we are holding onto fat or even gaining, it's not necessarily what's going on - it's more to do with water.

Don't "punish" yourself - eat and nourish yourself today.
