It's saturday, what are you eating ?

[annieS]

DD/MD here, after quite an UD yesterday

B = x
L = x
D = we have an invitation to a diner cooked by one of the greatest chef in France. It's a "table d'hote" so there's only 1 menu but this chef is well known for being a veggie lover so it might be ok.... we'll see !

Already changed my breakfast plans. The Kid wanted Panera last night when we talked about it. Now she doesn't want to go out for breakfast, so my breakfast will be:

Banana, 2T PB2 mixed with water and 1T coconut oil. SW vanilla warrior blend shake. (354)

Coffee later while we're running around (5)

The rest as written . . . maybe.

Yesterday's DD turned into an UD after 6:00 P.M. So today is a genuine attempt at my first DD:
B-coffee with EZSWEETZ drops (liq. splenda) and coconut milk based creamer (40 cl.)
S-Crystal light flavored water ( a smidgen of the mixed goodness with lots of water)
L-raw yellow and orange bell peppers, cucumber spears dipped in 1 TBLS. Ranch dressing (100 cal.)
S-chicken broth and a smidgen of tomato sauce to color it (12-15 cal)
S-3 oz. roasted chicken breast (115 cal.) 1 cup of mashed yellow squash and onions (30 cl.) 1 cup of green beans with 1 oz. lean ham steak cubes (80 cal.)
total for the day planned 480-500 calories

This is a very happy and busy day for me. My dear husband is out of town for the weekend. My daughter is bringing her 10 year old triplets (all girls) for the day. My daughter-in-law is bringing a daughter (10 years old), my only grandson (8 years old), and a two-year old granddaughter for a long weekend. Their Dad, our son, is in Italy for two weeks. He is the principal of a private Christian Academy who is accompanying his senior class and their families for the senior trip. So I am cooking good food for the children and the grandchildren rather than do the fast food, easy peasy way. That is their usual fare so this will be a change for them.

[LightlyStarched]

Fasting day today. Coffee, tea and water.

I was at 223.4 this morning. I am hoping to be back to my May 1 number tomorrow morning. I kind of wasted May & June.

[amlyjo]

Gonna enjoy the day with my kids!

Oh my!! the food was amaaaazing! This chef does deserve his michelin stars!
It wasn't light but portions were "snob french size" so it shouldn't be too bad. Tomorrow will be an UD anyway

[TryingJudd]

UD

B- small chunk of bread on the run
L- cheesecake factory 600 cal lunch - turkey, avocado sandwich and a side salad then frozen yogurt w toppings

900 cal so far - shooting for 1900

D- probably buffalo chicken in a roll w some lite blue cheese and veggies, special k chips and some pepper slices, then a jello lemon meringue (100 cals)

Should be just about on target and sooo delicious

[tobelowcarber]

DD:

B: X
L: X
D: lamb burgers on oopsie rolls and lettuce (450)

[vilanteira]

DD

B: 1T EVCO, black tea
L: --
D: chia pudding (1T chia seeds, 1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk, dash of pumpkin pie spice, sprinkle of pure stevia), smoked oysters, 4 slices bacon, pork stew

530 calories total. This is my first time trying chia seed, and it is SO FILLING and yummy for so little food and calories! Plus I love the texture. Reminds me of tapioca pearls in a bubble tea. Ooh, I can make chia bubble tea! Thinking I might have to cut out some food from the rest of dinner because I'm not hungry at all after eating that chia pudding.

[tobelowcarber]

vilanteira- did you make the chia pudding in the blender? I have a package of chia seeds for 1 year and have yet to try it.

[vilanteira]

Nope, just soaked it with water for a while, then added almond milk to soak some more overnight so the chia seeds would gel and get big sort of like the picture below, and then added the spices. It looked a little odd to me but tasted really creamy and filling!

(Take note, those who like to consider a small restaurant meal with low calories.)

And then, Gordita Supreme Chicken from Taco Bell....270
sodium is 510, so not the best, but not too bad

hey, who knew - a really filling meal! Can it be possible I'm only up to 850 and only a few more hours in the day... ...I need to have some ice cream! Oh woe is me what a difficult way of eating.

Also will munch on some veggie sticks to get in my fresh foods. Probably end up between 1,100 and 1,200.

Need to come back in and say "hello" to luvmyzoe! Best wishes on DD.

[SpinDizzie]

I'm new to the chia too. I made mine in unsweetened chocolate almond milk with a hit of stevia. Interesting, lol.

B_lou, it was actually you that got me interested in chia seeds. I was looking for low cal ways to add omega3 in general but more so on DDs as well and remembered you talking about chia so I went and looked it up. I wish I had known about chia before. It's so nutritious and filling and fun to eat! I could have this every day!
