I LOVE Purple! Especially the purple on a Ketostix!

Okay you lurkers, let's get some action on this forum. Post your menus to keep yourself focused and help others get ideas.

Thursday's plan:
B: Egg salad on low carb bread, w/lettuce and onion
S: berry smoothie
L: Cheeseburger w/tomato, lettuce, onion, pickle, mayo, mustard
S: Nuts and cheese
D: Tropical Smoothie’s King Caesar w/lowcarb wrap

I post every morning to Fitday. So I'll try to remember copying my menu here.

B - 2 hb eggs, 4 pcs bacon (thin sliced), 3 cups coffee w/ cream/splenda

L - spinach (2 cups)/steak salad w/ cukes, cherry tom., 1 hb egg, 2 T. dressing

D - baked chicken w/ sauteed yellow & green squash w/ onions

S - cup of whole milk yogurt w/ 2 T. flax meal mixed with french vanilla davinci

Totals: 1296 cals/ 87 fat/ 42 carbs/ 88 protein

Note: I don't net carb grams and this is a lower cal day for me.

Thanks for posting GetFitMom! You have done a fantastic job so far!

Hopefully others will start posting. I get motivated by seeing others plan their meals and seeing how healthy they eat keeps me focused on good foods.

I added bacon to my egg salad sandwich this morning. I know I won't be able to eat as much as I have been since ketosis is kicking in.

Hi GetFitMom! I started a new thread today so when you decide what you will have for dinner maybe you can post on that one. I need to decide too. Feel free to start a new thread each day if I haven't gotten one going.

YIKES! I posted to the wrong thread. Thanks BeingHealthy for the compliment and informing me about the new thread.
