Living the Lifestyle Tuesday January 7, 2020

We meet here to explore, share, celebrate and (sometimes) agonize over how we do (or don't) incorporate weight loss guidelines into our daily lives. "It's a lifestyle, not a diet" is easily and often said, but sometimes not so simply put into practice.



This is a thread for everyone. If you're new to GoaD, or to weight loss, your questions and comments are always welcome. If you're maintaining, or a long-term loser, your thoughts on the topic may be just what someone else needs to hear. If you're reading this, join in the discussion!



Each weekday, a new topic is offered up for discussion.

I know that some folks eschew and won't chew Kale and brussel sprouts but I like them. I did add in a veggie omelet daily when at home made with a shredded kale,carrot, and red cabbage mixture. I like mine.

Evening snack
Greek yogurt, frozen fruit of mixed berries, granola and SF Cool Whip!

One of my favorite finds in nutritional yeast. Excellent addition to many dishes - adding a cheesy flavor without the cheese.

And yogurt. I've really come to like yogurt of all styles.

I've always eaten a lot of veggies and fruit.

Fruit. Before I started WW I rarely ate fruit. Now I rarely go without at least 2 servings.

Oatmeal. Pre WW instant flavored oatmeal could be a cold weather substitute for morning cereal. But now it’s the old fashioned Quaker every day we are home. Eggs are for lunch.

Who would have thought that I consider an omelette without veggies, fresh pico, and spinach to be boring? I've been eating my colorful omelettes for many years now every morning!
