Morning all :)

Well, what a cruddy rainy, cold day out there today!  I am totally going to have to turn the heat on tonight which I've been avoiding thus far. Nearly froze my flat ass off getting ready for work this morning. lol

Today's eats:

B - coffee with milk x 2, protein shake
S - 21g cheddar, 2 triscuits, 6 grapes
L - tuna sandwich with lots of veggies, hold the bread
S - not sure, likely tea and a handful of almonds
D - 1 slice leftover BBQ chicken pizza (very filling and downright delish. lol)

Have a good one. :)

Sunny and cool up here today but still looks nice so my mood is good.  We turned our heat on about a month ago as it just got too cold too fast but it didn't last long.  Only home for 3 days this week so lots of leftovers to clean up so those will be my meals.

B - the last 1/2 cup of smoked salmon ravioli, 2 clementines

L - coq au riesling, green salad

S - apple, 1 oz old cheddar

D - leftover turkey, pass on the taters and gravy, cranberries, veggies, maybe some chestnut stuffing and passing on the beautiful delicious cake(it was very good but won't eat anymore)

Mmmmm..... turkey.  Can't wait for this weekend - we're doing our turkey extravaganza @ the pub again this year. Around 35 people attending so far.

Your cake was absolutely gorgeous, especially with the pineapple flowers - extremely impressive!

Oh Marny, I hear you - I am *exhausted* today for no apparent reason.  Coffee isn't cutting it this morning!  Have a good one - hopefully it won't be a "rain day" @ recess time!

It is such a blah day out there YUCK!!! Need a jump start for sure! Was planning on hitting the gym today for the first time in like FOREVER but I don't wanna LOL Think I am going to get dinner ready, through it in the crockpot and then face the elements and take the dog for a good long walk.  Maybe the fresh air with help my mood. Been waiting to hear about a job.  Fingers crossed the phone rings today.

Going to try really hard to plan my meals this week.  I have really started to fall off the wagon a bit and need to start planning ahead so that I know what I am eating and will stop grazing.

B-breakfast pita with a little PB ( I know a little high in carbs and cal but  I made a protein shake this morning that tasted like poopydoop so I dumped it down the sink)

s-tea with milk and maybe s source yogurt if I need it

l-butternut squash soup with turkey and cheese role ups

s- rivita cracker with cheese and an apple

d-beef stew

s-tea with milk or/and high protein cereal.

Have a great day everyone!

Jen your menu looks more like a maintenance menu than a weight loss menu.  You have way too many carbs in there IMO.  Lose the almonds and soy nuts and leave the wrap out and it would look more like weight loss mode.

That was my thought as well Tracey.

Jen, in a very quick calculation of the food you're eating, the percentage ratio of protein to carbs to fats is P 27%, C 41%, F 33%,  Your carb count is at 98 grams for the day.  When I was in my active losing mode, I tried very hard to keep my carbs between 30-40g per day.

The ratio I still use when tracking is 40/30/30 - protien/carbs/fats.

My suggestion would be to up your protein and lower your carbs for a week and see what happens.

Thanks Karen- I am working on it- I am struggling- I need to make a list of the high protein stuff I can have and like- I am planning, and not eating impulsively (progress), I just need to plan better things.

I need to read, read, read to remember and to get back where I need to be.
