DD Friday - post Thanksgiving, whatcha eatin?

[TryingJudd]

Trying for maintenance cals this weekend but need to detox from all the food, especially sugar and carbs from my Thanksgiving indulgence.

B- half cup ff cottage cheese w a sf peach cup (115)
L- might be an apple with some pb2
D - might be a salad topped w tuna salad
S - low cal treat, maybe popcorn or a WW ice cream bar

850 cal target seems positively luxurious!

[mom23kids]

So far I've had a rice cake @5o calories

Later today-
soup x2 200 calories
hot cocoa with whipped cream x2 70 calories (happy that I found a 15 calorie whipped cream-the kind in a can )
maybe a hard boiled egg tonight, but right now food sounds

[Kissa]

1 cup of Bovril 10cals
50g shrimp
50g shrimp 65 cals altogether

I'm trying to get back on the horse yet again and wanted today to be a post-Thanksgiving DD day but my mom that we are visiting from out of town decided we are having another Thanksgiving dinner today with more family. What the heck? Ugh mom you're killing me here. I already got a rude comment from one of her friends on how much weight I've gained since I was here last. I wish I could hide. I don't need comments from family too. :-( I am not sure how to handle this? Should I just eat very lightly today anyways and stick to the plan or make today a middle day and make tomorrows travel day a DD? How do you guys handle travel and holidays on this WOE? I'm too flexible maybe that's my problem...and why I always gain on vacations! Lol!

I am brand new so clueless. I probably would fast until dinner and then eat as light as possible. You'll be fine, though, regardless! Just go back to normal tomorrow! I did want to give you a big hug regarding the family friend comments, though. How rude and horrible!!!

[Flutter]

Not sure about my food for today. Just coffee so far. Going to try to fast as long as possible and just see how I feel later. I kind of like it this was so far.

[Librarygirl]

Not had anything today but coffee and half/half w/splenda. Had 3(ish) cups, but poured out last half...so saying I've had 100 cals so far. Don't really have a plan for the rest of the day yet.

[Rayne_W]

Still on my second mug of tea (lapsang/rose), had a large celery stick with a bit of Vegemite for breakfast. I think we'll be having soup for lunch and dinner.

I agree...food sounds all kinds of wrong right now.

[stephdray]

This is one of the first times I can honestly say I was looking forward to a DD. Yesterday was way over the top!

B. Nothing
L. Bulletproof Coffee (80 cal)
D. Probably soup or fish

Thank you! I agree. This comment came from a woman that is maybe 90lbs soaking wet and 5'3-4". Ugh. I just can't take what she says to heart and I know I shouldn't but you can't always edit those things out. :-( I like your idea about fasting til dinner. I'll try to eat lightly. Thank you for the advice! Fasting always feels good to me. Husband is not always on board with fasting though. He gives me a hard time and practically force feeds me. Ugh. He doesn't want me to lose weight but I know I need to because my joints feel it and my asthma is much worse. :-( My cholesterol is up too. :-( I need to do something!

[KeirasMom]

B: Black coffee (5)
S: Broth w/serrano (7) I'm hungry today!
L: Probably chili (210)
D: Veggies of some sort (50ish)

[Kissa]

Came in at around 300 calories, amazing!

[Librarygirl]

Not sticking to strict DD protocol today. Having some personal issues and all I could think about was getting drunk, lol, so I decided eating something would be a better option. I did not overdo it yesterday at all and had only one meal, so I am just going for a medium day but will not change rotations.

Sorry you are having a bad time. Food over alcohol is a very wise choice.

Yea, my DH isn't quite sure what to make of me fasting DD's either, but it's just easier for me than eating so far. Hang in there, you can do it! Hopefully your asthma will be improved, too, soon!

I'm sorry girl! Hope whatever you're going through runs away quickly!
