I had fun with this last week! I'd love to see what you guys are eating today.
Breakfast half a muffin and a grapes-and-cheese cup from the coffee shop at work; coffee from home because I am contrary.
Lunch: homemade mushroom, leek, and carrot soup with (also homemade) olive bread.
Snack: peanut butter trail mix. I am powerless against it and would probably vote for it to be President, ngl.
Dinner: will be chicken marsala and a side of lemony broccoli & quinoa. I fully plan to have a G&T or two, as well.

It is not obsession. People learning to make better choices takes time. Learning from others what they like or works for them can be an excellent tool. If the discussion does not interest you then why comment?9 -

Breakfast: cinnamon raisin bagel with peanut butter. And a plate of baked goods.
Lunch: plate of baked goods. Again.
Snack: 2 cheese strings, because good god my sweet tooth is aching.

I think this is fun, especially doing it just once a week.
Breakfast: black coffee, boiled egg, light Greek yogurt in salted caramel flavor
Lunch: veggie corn dog with mustard, pickle spear, homemade cinnamon vanilla sweet potato fries (baked), and a small smoothie made with banana, fresh pineapple, a little bit of unsweetened original almond milk and ice.
Dinner: it will be a tofu and veggie stir fry with brown rice. My husband will no doubt make some amazing spicy sauce to go with it. I think the vegetables we have at home for this are zucchini, yellow squash, peppers, mushrooms, carrots and onion.
I'm gonna bake almond biscotti tonight and probably have a piece of that with a cup of cinnamon or guayusa tea.1 -

Thank you! My diary is open, but I typically eat the same things each day because it's easier, and I'm not fond of cooking. (I've always been that way, so I already know it's a sustainable thing. The things that did me in, to the tune of 35 extra pounds, were portion control, a lack of exercise, my sweet tooth, and significant wine consumption on the weekends. And I quit smoking, too. Since I started addressing them all, I've been steadily losing a pound a week. I'm 15 pounds away from my goal at the moment, and I'm still a nonsmoker!)

Have a feeling this poster is gonna tuck tail and disappear from this post.....unless they're a troll......we'll know shortly.
OP sounds delicious when can I come by for dinner? I fast during the day so I haven't eaten yet. But I think it's gonna be scrambled eggs with onions, kidney beans, cheese and BBQ sauce wrapped in a corn tortilla.......I'm trying to get more protein these days.2 -
Breakfast: strawberries & a pineapple spear; chocolate chip granola bar
Lunch: green pepper, cucumber, carrots, cauliflower, and black olives on a whole wheat tortilla with veggie cream cheese spread.
Dinner: probably leftover chicken pot pie from last night.
If I'm a good girl the rest of the night at work maybe I can have two servings AND ice cream! WOO.1 -

Oh, sure! I just make a standard quickbread and add all types of mix-ins -- this time it was olives and cheddar but another one I love is (grated, drained) zucchini, goat cheese, and olives!
BREAD BASE:
1.75 cups flour
2tsp baking powder
1tsp salt
3 eggs
1/3cup milk
1/3 cup olive oil or melted butter
Optional mix-ins: 2oz crumbled or grated cheese, 1/2 cup chopped olives, ~1lb grated zucchini or carrot, minced garlic, spices or herbs (rosemary and sage are particularly good), dried fruit, etc.
Preheat oven to 350F. Whisk together dry ingredients (including spices or garlic, if using). Lightly beat eggs, then whisk in other wet ingredients. Fold wet and dry mixtures together until just combined; then, fold in any mix-ins (for my olive bread I used 2oz of shredded sharp cheddar and half a cup of chopped kalamatas) until just combined. Pour into a well-greased loaf pan and bake for 30-45 minutes, or until top is golden brown.
