    I need to do that. Maybe today when I am waiting on systems to run for work! Especially for ideas for breakfast and lunch. We are pretty much permanently going to be Work from Home.

    Breakfast: 2 egg cheese omelet with salsa, hashbrowns, tea (8:30am

    Lunch: Ham sandwich, fruit (12:30pm)

    Snack: Fruit if needed

    Dinner: Veggie hummus pasta (6:00pm)

    Dessert: Chai tea latte (7:30pm)

    So, I was able to go until 6 before dinner, but then I was overly hungry and stuffed myself with pasta. I think I ate my snack too soon after lunch.

    The last two days it's telling me I'm not eating enough. Believe me that's actually making me happy. I have been too high in carbs for years, so now I am making a concentrated effort to follow a low carb diet. I'm not at all depriving myself, though. I'm just eating a lot of veggies. For lunch I made a lovely stir fry and for dinner, I made this big salad, a salmon patty, a glass of wine and some cookie thins (about 400 cal). I might have a hard-boiled egg before bed just to bring the protein up a little. Summer veggies are such a pleasure. mjl8gcjoc81f.jpg
