    Geez. How did you not end up in a corner weeping from the hunger pangs? :S

    First meal I had two whole eggs and one egg white scrambled with coconut oil and spinach with two slices of bacon and three slices of turkey breast. Second meal I had an acorn squash roasted with cinnamon and nutmeg, three zucchini oven roasted with garlic infused olive oil, and an 8 oz steak. Then a huge bowl of strawberries and blueberries for dessert. Low cal day for me.

    You don't have to starve yourself to get results. It's better in the long run to eat enough to fuel your body. You won't be hungry all the time and you'll have energy.

    I don't feel like going back to yesterday so today I had sausage, eggs and toast for breakfast. Hamburger vegetable soup at lunch and then snacked on mandarin oranges, cake and other sweets. I have a cold and it seems to be bringing out my sweet tooth. Mostly healthy choices, but not perfect. Me and perfect are not very close. :laugh:
  • Two farm eggs fried in coconut oil and lightly salted, tossed in raw spinach and baby kale. A couple figs.

    Pasta with spinach.

    Some mean green juice, but less ginger more apple.

    Basa fillets fried in coconut oil served with a tomato-based sauce including onions, celery, olives and spinach. A few rice noodles with liquid soy on the side.

    Not exactly a typical day -- lower in fiber and higher in sodium than I like.

    Breakfast - 2 small slices of leftover pizza (a little less than a quarter of an 8" square pizza, with veggies, pepperoni, bacon, and ground beef), and about a 2 oz. slice of home-made part-whole-grain home-made bread, with butter

    Lunch - McDonald's grilled onion cheddar burger, medium fries, and about 8 oz. Coke

    Dinner - McDonald's Big Mac (no middle bun), Filet-O-Fish (no tartar sauce, with pickle relish and ramp mustard)

    Dinner and evening: Several glasses of seltzer water with fresh lemon juice


    Burned about 550 calories at the gym, and ended up netting about 500 calories below maintenance.
