What are you eating today - New Years Eve edition!

Looking at a low key New Years Eve here. A friend and her family are coming over to celebrate with us this evening. The ball will drop around 7pm so the kids can all get to bed at a decent time. Should be fun and relaxing!

Breakfast: Currently sipping my protein shake

Lunch: Leftover roast beef

Supper: Party time - meat & cheese tray, a few bites of the other treats

Probably one small alcoholic drink as we ring in the new year. I love champagne but can't handle a lot of carbonation so a little bit will be just fine.

 

What does everyone else's day look like?

 

Amy

Breakfast:  Protein hot chocolate and steel cut oats w/ apples

Lunch:  Probably some leftover ham and swiss cheese

2pm - time with my personal trainer for WOD

Evening - off to friends where there will be a ridiculous amount of food.  ugh.  My goal is to avoid the carbs this evening and eat fresh veggies and protein! 

Bf: protein coffee.
Lunch: turkey & sharp cheddar roll up
Dinner:?
Snacks: protein shake made with water. Sharp cheddar cheese and wheat crackers.

Good Morning and Happy New Year!!

Breakfast: Decaf coffee and pills

S: Protein shake (36g p)

L: left over veggie lasagna from last night....yummo!!

S: protein shake (36 g p)

D: Party is at MY house!! meat and cheese tray, shrimp ****tail, etc

Sip, sip the night away with all my requirements met early in the day!! No alcohol for me (didn;t really drink anyway) but I am just 4 weeks out.

 

Optifast RTD chocolate shakes for me :/ since I am preparing for surgery on Friday. :))))

Not sure if I am going to try and go out to hear a local band or just stay home.

 

Happy New Year!

I am kinda glad the Holidays are over! I love the parties and getting together, but if I am being honest, I am tired of the food temptations, I have changed a lot in the past 5 years, but there is nothing like stress and high emotions to widdle away my will power and make me want to eat.

And all of that food I must turn down every weekend makes me start to feel sorry for myself when everyone else is eating, drinking alcohol, and having dessert (That's just the truth). So I am glad it's coming to an end so maybe I can get back to normal. Most people have no idea what it's like to be a food addict, and how difficult it is to be around all of that food I shouldn't eat, and the strength and will power it takes to turn it down. (every single weekend, seriously we have had a party to attend every weekend since Thanks Giving)

 

B: egg beaters on a 100 cal bagel thin, banana

S: String cheese, apple

L: Salad with shave turkey, kidney beans, and light French dressing, cottage cheese

S: Pear, carrot sticks

D: Having sea food at my Mom's so I am planing head and I will have boiled shrimp, baked potato, and green salad.

S: Taco Dip with a serving of baked lay's

 

I'm tired of the temptations too! And I've given in too often. Less than I would have in the past but more than someone who is trying to make life-changing habits should! Can't wait to put another food season behind us and get back to real life!

Amen to the end of huge amounts of food temptations!  I am just a few days shy of a year out and it scares the hell out of me that I can eat so much more.  Measuring almost everything I put in my mouth starting Saturday.  I feel more in control.  

B:  1/2 of an everything bagel with all of the guts ripped out (i was jonesing for the everything part) filled with egg, turkey sausage crumbles, sauteed onions, and cheese.

L:  1 cup of buffalo chicken chili with blue cheese crumbles. 

S: Dried peas (not a great idea)

D:  Not sure yet.  We're going out for supper.  Probably a lean protein and veggie.  Possibly a salad.

Just another day so far....

Got up and helped my mom, had breakfast, fed the animals and went to have my labs done - rechecking Vit D and then also looking at B1, B6 and B12.   Did the "ABSolute Glutes" class at the gym - there were just 2 of us so the trainer really cranked it up, I am pretty sure I will feel this one tomorrow!    Working until 1am, so I will ring in the New Year with the 1 other employee who will be with me lol.

B - egg stirs, turkey bacon

S - pregym - ww bread, 1/2 banana, peanut butter

L - (at 4pm?) -  shrimp on ww tortilla w/ slice tomato and dab of tartar sauce

S - protein shake, apple

D - egg stirs w/ shrimp, turkey bacon tortilla

S -salad, protein shakes, turkey / cheese / pickle roll up

maybe some cottage cheese and peanut butter later

I had some flavored tuna for the first time today.  I'm two weeks out and looking forward a small cracker tomorrow.

 

Happy 2013 to all.
