Hello! Hope all are well! I got some bad news at the dr. Fatty Liver Disease. So it’s time to get to business over here! Just got back from the store with tons of veggies, fruit, whole grains. Got some veggie burgers and cod!

No real meal plan today. Just snacked a bit. But I made a purple barely salad with balsamic dressing. Plus, I had a pb&j.

Dinner is a sheet pan meal: roasted polenta, radicchio, fennel, garlic, tomatoes, zucchini w/ a sprinkle of parm.

Do you have a recipe link for your sheet pan meal? The polenta and veggies sounds great!

Hello all! Good day today, avoided many temptations on the road today. Settled for a cheese stick and some crackers and a Bai drink (I love those!).

B: watermelon, coffee, half and half
L : leftover chicken faijtas (just the filling, no tortillas).
D : Dr Praeger’s California Birger on a bun and some Mac and cheese
S: cheese and crackers

Tons of water! No intentional movement but I did move a bit at work.

Have a great day!!

B- 2 eggs, 1 bacon, 45 cal wheat toast
L- sardines, Roma tomato and 1/3 avocado
D- boiled skinless chk breast, tostada, avocado, salsa
S- chic. Rice cake w/thin peanut butter and 1/2 a banana sliced
100oz of water

Not feeling super hungry today but MFP made me add more food! Lol!

B coffee, half and half and a Luna bar
L barley grain salad with feta and veggies plus a mug of broth
D fish tacos (cod, grilled) w/ mango salsa and a Mexican rice
S strawberries and a can of Squirt (I love that stuff! But it’s only a once in awhile thing).

Movement: getting back on the rower today!

Trying to decide if I should weigh in today. If the results are good I’m super motivated but if they aren’t I tend to feel like 🤬😭💩 and stop trying.

@LenGray I bet that spicy ramen was good medicine for the sinus infection! I always like the heat when I don’t feel well! Hope you recover quickly!

B coffee/half and half/ Luna bar
L salad greens, dressing & barley salad
D going out, not sure
S cucumber w/salt couple of gin gin candies

Have a great day everyone!!

Hey all! Not sure what the day holds but I’ve got a few things planned. Lots of movement: a hike in the woods, some yard work.

Making homemade granola right know. Hubs eats a ton of it and it’s so expensive.
Plus I can add more of the good stuff. It has oats, almonds, chia, flax, hemp hearts, honey and maple syrup. A bit of olive oil and vanilla.

B coffee, half and half, plain yogurt w/granola I made
L grilled bbq chicken and couscous
D huge salad w/tons of veggies, tuna

S: melon and cantaloupe

Today I did a ton of food prep so I don’t have to cook much when it’s super hot next week. Some grocery shopping and I’m ready for good choices!

B coffee, half and half and a baked oatmeal thing I made.

L chips, salsa and guacamole. Skipping the margarita! 🙌

D stuffed peppers with rice, black beans and hominy. This spicy tahini sauce I made today on top. Some fruit and an outshine popsicle.

Movement: a sunset walk once it cools off.

Feeling a bit sluggish in motivation and mood so I’m going to head out for a walk. It’s super humid so I’m not sure how long I’ll be out there but I’ll give it a try!

B frozen grapes, coffee, half and half
L salad w/ toast and cream cheese
D stuffed peppers (didn’t get around to making those yet! Filling is rice, beans and hominy, cheese and tomatoes.

S berries

Breakfast:
*Avocado toast (2 slices low sodium Ezekiel bread, 1 avocado, red pepper flakes, black pepper)
*Low-fat plain yogurt mixed with a cut-up peach and vanilla extract
*Unsweetened iced tea
Lunch:
*Sandwich from local pizza place (Whole-wheat wrap with salami, pepperoni, fresh mozzarella, tomato, balsamic viniagrette)
*Unsweetened iced green tea from Dunkin' Donuts.
Dinner: (I didn't get to eat dinner until really late so I kept it simple)
*Smoothie (Garden of Life chocolate protein + greens powder, 1 cup unsweetened soy milk, 1 cup frozen mixed berries, 1 cup spinach, 1 tbsp cocoa powder). I just got the Garden of Life powder today and I never tried it before. It's really good mixed into the smoothie, even though it's pea protein which I usually dislike.
*2 more slices low sodium Ezekiel bread
*More unsweetened iced tea
Dessert:
*Coconut-date roll
*Orgain vanilla keto collagen powder mixed with water. I normally wouldn't have two protein powders in one day but since I just got these, I wanted to try both. I really did not like this though. It tastes like swimming pool water to me and has a weird greasy texture. I will have to mix it with something next time.
*Fiber One chocolate brownie
*Even more unsweetened iced tea
