    I chose variety for Breakfast today: Poached egg on homemade multi-grain bread with a peach and water with my usual GoChi 2oz drink

    Lunch is at the Senior Center:

    They served a 3/4 C bowl of chili, a square of cornbread, 1/2 C cottage cheese w/ 1/8 C peaches, 1/2C coleslaw, water and 1 C Milk! Yikes! I ate the whole thing except for the cinnamon roll they had for dessert. I guess it's easy does it for dinner and snacks today.

    I think I'll just have a xocai chocolate square and water for snacks, and A green salad with a little tuna,other fresh veggies and a lemon juice and herb dressing without any oil for dinner. Sounds plenty filling to me!
    At least there is no senior lunch until next Friday ( next Wednesday is Veterans Day) so I'll have a chance to recover!

    songbyrdsweet: what's a health crunch bagel? I have been trying to find a bagel I could eat but all the ones I've seen are outrageously terrible...I'm sticking to English muffins lately but I would love to change it up!

    I actually found these in Walmart near the section with cream cheese. They are refrigerated. They contain flax and pumpkin seeds and are whole grain. They're smaller than the average bagel..2g fat, 38g carbs, 5g fiber, and 10g protein per bagel I believe. They are actually cheaper than Thomas' Hearty Bagels and VERY delicious with a wonderful texture!

    :flowerforyou: :heart: Happy Birthday Calie!!! :flowerforyou: :heart: I hope it's lovely! :drinker:

    I am feeling really carb-depleted today since I eat fairly low-carb for my activity level, so I did 30 min. of fasted cardio this morning and today will be a carbup- 60% carbs, 25% protein, 15% fat.

    M1: 1 cup cooked oats, 1 medium banana (muddled up in the oats, yum!), 6 oz fat free yogurt, 1/4 cup 1% milk

    M2: 1 cup cooked grits, 1 whole egg, 1 slice lean canadian bacon

    M3: 1 slice whole grain sugar free bread, 1 tbsp naturally more PB/flax spread, 2 tbsp no sugar added strawberry preserves, 1 medium apple

    M4: 1 cup lima beans, 4 oz 93% lean ground beef, 1 cup cooked whole wheat pasta

    M5: 1 whole egg, 1 egg white, 6 oz fat free yogurt

    Last night I pigged out on Sauerkraut and asparagus....lots of fiber. I'm feeling a little bloated today. :ohwell:

    Happy Birthday CallieCat!:happy: Have a great day!!

    A lot of you sound like you're starving yourselves! :frown: Isn't there a way to jump start our metabolism and eat real food not processed so much and still lose weight?:tongue: I don't know how to get in the protein and essential nutrients each day without eating more whole foods! So it seems like I eat a whole lot more than most of you!:blushing: I don't know if I eat more calories, but it surely does seem like I eat more food! Maybe that's why my progress is so slow!

    I know I haven't lost much of anything since I joined this site, but I did lose 20 lbs previously and then slowly lost another 5 before coming here, and Yoga has helped a bunch with inches and flexibility.

    Do what works for you! :flowerforyou: I eat more than anyone else I've seen on this site with my body size (5'0, 133 lbs). Most people my size seem to be eating 1200-1400 cal/day with exercise. Well, I feel like crap on 1400, and I can't IMAGINE trying to get through my day on 1200! Even 1500-1600 leaves me hungry some nights. No I'm not losing 2 lbs/wk, but I know what I need to maintain my activity level and I know I like to eat. I like slow and steady...it allows me to maintain my muscle mass so I look good when I'm lean! :smile:

    I think you're doing great and you do eat more! I think that's good:smile::bigsmile: I guess I'm trying to be slow and steady as well!:drinker: :heart: My husband teaches nutrition at a local college, and I can't see myself trying to do this any other way!:laugh: :heart: The crunchy bagels sound great so I'll look for them the next time I get near a WalMart ( probably in a couple of weeks) The one I'll be going to is 4hours away. There is a WalMart only 80 miles away, but I'm not going that direction! I guess I was worrying about some who eat so very little, and I shouldn't because each has to work in their own way! :love: :heart: Love and success to everyone!:flowerforyou: Thanks for your reply!:bigsmile:

    Happy birthday Calie!! :flowerforyou:

    Brunch: 1 scrambled egg, 2 slices bacon, low fat multigrain waffle, REAL maple syrup! This was a real treat for me! I love "classic" breakfast and I never get to eat it so I decided today should be the day. It's gorgeous outside and I'm going to go run later...yippee!

    Snack: not sure on this one, but I'm thinking a fluffernutter on an English muffin, or something else around 250 calories. I have some Greek yogurt I need to finish off too...

    Dinner: homemade sloppy joes with 93:7 ground beef, ketchup, mustard, worcestershire (that was a doozy to spell), sauteed onions, a sprinkle of brown sugar, and various other seasonings. I'll put the joe on an Arnold's sandwich thin and eat it with some baked potato wedges. Probably throw a few steamed veggies in there too!

    When I type this all out it looks outrageously carb-y to me, but I am still under for the day....strange!

    I am combinding the 3 threads so they will be together. You can post each meal or post all 3 if you know what you are eating. This should make it easier to find the thread Calie

    Marie I love you signature Quote. It says so much truth...You rock and I love your picture!
