Thank you ALL!! I slept well today, and am going to attempt some soup soon. DD is easy when you are not awake! Feeling better, will probably work tomorrow, but I don't know yet.

Up and back to work today. Feeling better and I only have to work 6 hours on Firdays, so I will be fine. Today is an UP DAY. and I am joining Maggie on a 2 week challenge to stick to our WOE, no matter what it is.

2 WEEKS.. I know I can do that. Everyone have a great day, I have to get lots of backup done from yesterday. Will check in when I can.

Thanks Shari! Yep, we can do this! I do feel really motivated, so this being a Friday, is a GOOD THING!!! I usually feel like caving on the weekend, and this weekend I will NOT.

Yesterday was tough DD but I made it through. Can you believe I made it as tired as I was on 290 cals (food) and one cup of coffee?

I bought the whole grain low fat waffles yesterday and they were SOOOOO GOOD!!!! SO quick to make too!!!!

I even had enough energy to ZUMBA!!!!

It wasn't tho!
I had 2 waffles with syrup and a sandwich! That was lots!! LOL (well to me)

[12yrslater]

Remember I IF on DDs so eating all that is quite satisfying! I could have ate more but I didn't want to (need to).

[julieboolie]

Wow!! Pati-that's great self control!! you go girl!!

Deb-good for you!! 2 weeks really strict will get you in the habit.

Have a great weekend!! KUTGW!!

Ok Pati, just seems like such small amounts of food!!! I hope you make up for some of it today! I don't want you to starve...

I suppose it can be for some. Plenty for me. Maybe cuz I eat later in the day

What are you guy's low days looking like? I wanna compare.....
What does a typical down day menu look for y'all?

[12yrslater]

BTW My MD turned into a higher cal day! So see, I get plenty to offset my lows
*nom nom nom Subway! EAT FRESH! LOL*

WHEWWWWW I was worried... not really, but it seems low. I guess your body will tell you if you need fuel!!!

Because I USUALLY don't go all day without eating, I get in around 600 or a bit more on a DD. THE DAY, ( only 1 so far! ) that I didn't eat all day till dinner, I had around 500 at my meal. I admit I was hungry by then, and kind of headachy.

This is all Defiantely a trial and error thing for ME.

[12yrslater]

Trial and error for most of us, really!

So what do your 600 cal meal days look like? I told you I'm a HUGE copycat! LOL If it's working for you, or someone else, I will try to copy cat.

haha .. silly girl. Well I never have the same thing. Still looking for LC, low cal options for those days. I always bring soup. I made some yummy soup that is low cal/ low carb and I have that pretty much every DD.

Then the fat free hot dogs are always there somewhere. When I want some cheese, I have the WW jalepeno wedges for 30 cals each. Sometimes on some Special K Crackers-- you get ALOT for around 120 cals. That has to be a meal though, I don't like spending that much on a snack!!

I sometimes just have chicken breast with hot sauce ( from my P2 days!) I still love it, but it gets boring too.

Sometimes Lean Cuisine or WW meals, but there are very few with less than 200 cals. Sometimes a sandwhich with that Healthy Life bread. Some ham or turkey slices. I am still working on my lists!

\Seeeee! This is why I asK! So I can look for ideas too!
I am definitely going to look for the Special K crackers. I would make a meal out of it with ham! LOL

My go tos?
Fage
Blueberries
Kelloggs Chocolate delight
Turkey bacon
Cabbage

My newest additions? The Healthy Style Italian Bread (35 cals each slice) and the Oscar Mayer Ham Add low cal mayo and it's delish!!! (and very filling).
Yesterday (thanks to you guys on LCF) I bought the waffles and sugar free syrup and that was UBER YUMM!!!

(reason why I'm fat? I LOVE FOOD!! )

Thanks for help

Well friends, I have made it for 3 days so far on my 2 week cheat free challenge, and my mind is made up that I am going to do it! Then I will re evaluate my WOE and decide to go for another 2 weeks, If I choose.

I am really excited about this. THANKS MAGGIE!! Hope all of you are doing well this weekend, and are ready to roll!!..

[shari]

Wonderful Deb!! I 'hear' that determination in your posts!! I went over a bit yesterday regarding cals, I didn't count but I ate a lot, so now I'm going to stay strong and eat according to JUDDD.

That is FANTASTIC Shari!!! I know you can do this!!! JUDDD is not hard at all, when we do it correctly huh?

Another thing I just HAD to do was add some sort of movement to my day. I am not yet in the mindset to do formal exercise like I eventually want to, but one step at a time! Today I am REALLY cleaning my house, I am winded like crazy, so I know it is doing me good!

Have a wonderful day !

Cleaning the house, it does a body good!

[Deb294evr]

Good Morning All, yes Maggie, cleaning house did the body good!! I am feeling it today...

I did really good yesterday! I am happy with myself and how I am approaching this challenge. So far so good!.. The mind is a real funny thing.

Anyway, today is a DD for me. I have no hunger so far, will try to go as long as I can without eating. Just stay busy and hope I can just wait till I get home ( like Pati!) to have something I really want. I don't like eating things that don't taste all that great.

SOOOOOO, my plan for today is to wait to eat, then when I do eat, eat something that I really LIKE. Just enough. VERY BUSY Monday for me, so I will check back later! Have a great day all!!..

[lorettahd]

morning Deb, I can tell that you are happy and content with your woe......kutgw....cheering you on chic
