[Joyjoy]

Thanks for starting, Dottie.
DD with travel and one of those black-dress-and-heels things tonight. Yikes. Give me pajamas and a canoe any day. Nervous.
B: coffee, just to hype me up a bit more.
Late L: stir-fried coleslaw with tuna or egg. 300.
D: sparkling water.
Happy day, everybody.

Good morning! Got a little carried away on my calories yesterday - I underestimated how many calories I had in beverages of all things - need to stick to water!

Today I'm planning:

B: 1 egg & 1/2 english muffin - 120

L: Joseph's pita w/LC wedge, 2 slices turkey & an apple - 205

D: Homemade chicken orzo soup - have to figure out the calories - hoping if I go heavy on broth I can keep it under 275 to meet my goal of 600

[ouizoid]

going for a bunch of small snacks eaten frequently today:

oatbran/oatfiber/glu cereal w/ coconut creamer & sweetner: 50

josephs pita "chips" and laughing cow cheese: 60

pumpkin, protein, almond milk & glu shake: 80

super low OMM: 50

cabbage chicken stirfry with laughing cow and shiritaki: 200

banana protein pudding: 100

around 550

[Dottie]

I did make some really good green salsa so I baked a Joseph's pita and had 1/4 cup of the salsa with it for breakfast (80 cals total).
So still around the 300 calorie mark for the day

Hi All!
Ouizoid-- where's your super low OMM recipe? I might already have it, but I think when I make it, it comes out to 100 cal? maybe you just eat 1/2?

I'm also going to try your gluc pudding today-- after your advice to Steph D about having bulk, I'm going to give it a go too

Here's my menu (will see what actually happens):

B: iced mango chili green tea (made 1L, which is my max for caffeine... will drink all day, watered down).
vitamins, other water/mio

L: 1 hb egg (74)

D: shredded cabbage (100) stirfried with ??? protein and tomato sauce (50)

S: gluc pudding if I can get it made... almond milk and gluc right? so 40 cal for 1c

will check in later with progress

[SlimNana]

8:00 Coffee w/ non dairy creamer, 1/2 C. Fiber One cereal to keep regular BMs
10:00 Breakfast: Vanilla RL shake w/ 1/4 C. Pumpkin & spices
2:00 Lunch: Chocolate RL shake w/ 1 TBS. Banana SF pudding mix
6:00 Dinner: Vanilla RL shake w/ 1 TBS. Pistachio SF pudding mix

500 max. Including the Fiber One, which also gave me something to crunch.

[TryingJudd]

Ouizoid - banana protein pudding? yummm - pls share

[marlamp10]

B - coffee with cream (20)
L - cauliflower soup w/Laughing Cow wedge (86)
S - can of carrots (60)
D - I think I'll try Dawn's Wendy's Chili and sauteed cabbage (244)
S - Greek yogurt w/sf chocolate syrup (95)

Total: 461

[claireann]

OK, here's DD number 2 for me:

I lasted until 12pm and then had
1 hb egg: 75cals

Then I waited until evening so I could have one larger meal:
Giant plate of mashed carrot and parsnip with a small helping of mashed potato and some marmite (I know, this sounds weird and my husband looked at me like I was crazy but this is total comfort food for me and sooo filling): 220cals

And a treat:
Crunchie Bar: 185cals

Total: 480cals (my DD limit is 499cals)

Feeling nice and full now so am going to go to bed early.

[sorenkkg]

Claireann! good job on your 2nd DD!

[ouizoid]

Soren--my OMM is maybe barely 50 calories

http://www.lowcarbfriends.com/bbs/lo...olate-omm.html

I have taken to skipping the hersheys syrup because I don't really like the flavour.

Trying JUDDD--my banana protein pudding is one scoop flavourless whey (90 calories), 2 Tbs sf Banana Davinci's, and a little bit of Coconut Creamer (1 Tbs = 10 cals). Stir together and enjoy.

Sometimes instead I use BSN Banana flavoured lean dessert protein, which is a little carbier but VERY yummy. Then I just mix it with coconut creamer. Today I wanted fewer carbs.

[toomuchbooty]

Coffee and cream (40 calories)
Tuna/corn/kidney bean salad (180 calories)
Nectarine (60 calories)

I'm not sure what dinner will be! I'm going to grab some sparkling water soon because I am feeling hunger today!

[sorenkkg]

i had a great dd today! the caffeine in the green tea did the trick!

i wound up skipping the hb egg, and just went right to dinner, where i added some cauliflower "hash' and only 1/2 bag of slaw, and 7oz of grilled chicken breast

Ouizoid! the gluc pudding, my first, was great! even DH liked it!

totals:
487 cal (my lowest on a dd in ages)
16g net, and all from veggies

[Saxy1971]

Nice job, Soren!

My 2nd DD was pretty good! Went to a Milwaukee Brewers game, so the eight hour total drive kept me occupied. Had a soft pretzel at the game....ended up at around 400 for the day!

Bring on the UD! :d
