weight down: 193.6 woohoo!!!!!

Yesterday I had a 1/4 cup of starch w/ lunch and 1/2 cup of starch w/dinner and veggies for the rest...I had a 1/2 banana in the afternoon.
I'll try that strategy again today and see if it holds! Tonight is Mexican night so I'm thinking of how I'll navigate through that! You know I may just fast for lunch...I don't know.

I had a very busy day with church, lunch, grocery shopping, & then getting myself and the boys ready to go back to school!
We are all ready and it will be great!

Did a little stress eating w/ tortilla chips & guacamole after dinner, but otherwise a good day. I will be eating salads everyday for lunch this week and bringing an apple for a snack if needed. Vegan meals planned for all week.
leftover angel hair pasta w/marinara
vegan pizza
bowtie pasta w/marinara
vegan tostadas
spinach salad anytime!

I made some vegan ranch dressing today and I love it...measuring 2 tablespoons onto my lunch salad for the week.

b-tea w/vanilla almond milk
l- veggie burger no bun, steamed veggies
d- vegan sushi, spinach salad w/mushrooms avocado & vegan ranch

ElleBella Mon Aug 05, 2013 5:03 am

ElleBella Tue Aug 06, 2013 9:24 pm

Hey Honey, Wishing you a wonderful day cheers

Snow White Wed Aug 07, 2013 2:35 am

...been too tired to cook so far this week...having healthy vegan salads for lunch...last night had mexican...tonight vegan pizza from the freezer (that I made and froze a while back).

I know the grains are holding me back!

weight: 196.7

ElleBella Wed Aug 07, 2013 6:21 pm

You are going to find that when your rhythm is in place it will all come together.. Cut your grains in half.. You will fine. bounce

No worries..k.. hugs

Snow White Wed Aug 07, 2013 10:18 pm

weight: 195.8 down almost a pound, but I'm disappointed b/c I was down to 193 not too long ago!

Maybe with the grains I will try eating them every other day and see how that goes. So, I'll try to not have any grains tomorrow and see how that goes!

b- nothing
l- vegan salad w/ vegan ranch dressing ( I found this recipe and I love it!)
d- vegan tostadas

ElleBella Thu Aug 08, 2013 1:12 am

You are so right about when we were young we eat just about anything.. I was pretty small all the time.. uuugh.. but I still think I did not eat as much as I did as a adult..hmmmm Sounds like a good plan honey..grains every other day.. Yay..you are on to it now love.. Yay for the your loss..1lb is a great start back down.. Super!!

ElleBella Thu Aug 08, 2013 6:36 pm

Hey you, how is your plan going.. How is your day going.. It is soooooooooooooo hot again today.. I'm staying in the cool air conditioning.. Hope you are faring better love.. xoxoxo

Snow White Fri Aug 09, 2013 2:37 am

The heat here today was unreal...my thermometer outside said 110 when I got home at 5pm...I jumped straight into the pool! I haven't even looked in the that pool since work started back. I got cooled down and it was really nice. I need to take more time for myself just taking care of me sometimes, ya know???

weight: 195.3 down a little : )))))

b- nothing
l- vegan salad w/vegan ranch dressing
s-apple
d- tater tots, avocado, steamed broccoli, tomatoes, & carrots

NO GRAINS TODAY!!!! I LIVED!!!!!

Tomorrow I will have an apple for lunch then gorge on vegan Mexican food...my usual Friday night pleasure! I noticed from my notes that when I ate an apple on a Friday for lunch that my weight dropped to 193 and held for a couple of days. So, here is what I'm going to try:

Vegan everyday because I love it!

Mon.- no grains
Tue.- 1/2 cup grains w/ dinner
Wed.- 1/4 cup grains w/dinner
Thurs.-no grains
Fri.- apple for lunch, vegan Mexican for dinner
Sat.- 1/2 cup grains w/dinner
Sun.- 1/4 cup grains w/dinner

I'm not going to measure nuts, veggies, or fruits.

Now I'm a pizza lover, so I've got to figure out how much of a slice of pizza would constitute a 1/2 cup & 1/4 of grains for a pizza slice. I'm thinking 1/2 would be a small slice and 1/4 would be 1/2 of a small slice. When I'm hungry I'll fill up on fruit & veggies w/ some nuts if needed.

ElleBella Fri Aug 09, 2013 4:17 am

Great job today.. I know we got up to super hot day also.. but I have no pool.. you lucky girl.. You keep going on tweaking it love and you will find the combo. Twisted Evil

ElleBella Fri Aug 09, 2013 6:26 pm

Hey girl.. I am going to really put my best foot forward to changing the game .. I have not lost even 1 lb since last week.. Exclamation

Hope you are having a great day!

Snow White Sat Aug 10, 2013 7:44 pm

Was down yesterday but back up to 195.3...I guess the apple trick didn't work for the Mexican food binge!

Friday
b-nothing
l-apple
d- vegan mexican food--spinach enchiladas w/no cheese, beans w/no cheese, rice, guac. & salsa w/tortilla chips

Saturday
b- nothing
l-baked potato w/nutritional yeast, applesauce, blackberries, & cucumber, tomato, onion salad w/italian (all of this at Cracker Barrel)
d- 2 vegan cabbage rolls, steamed broccoli & carrots w/nutritional yeast, garlic, & dill seasoning, avocado

Also, looking back at my notes, re: Friday apple lunch I was also measuring processed grains or rice at 1/4 cup for lunch and 1/2 cup at dinner. So maybe limiting the grains the way I am planning will help this week. I feel like with all I've given up the weight should be coming off a lot easier!

ElleBella Sat Aug 10, 2013 9:46 pm

Sounds good love.. I just posted and my post went missing.. uuugh.. that happened yesterday also.. eeek I have some great news from a friend.. I am going to repost it now.. Cheers!
