Weekly check-in Great news on your Dr. visit Seilidhe! Keep it going! Not much to say about this week, didn't get to log every meal, so I have to get back to that routine. I had a meal out (masked and very much socially distanced) and had 1 glass of wine with dinner! Nice mixed salad topped with cod. Rest of the week were…

Good Morning (oops, Afternoon) - the sun is shining today so that always lifts my spirits. Gonna bundle up and head out for a walk soon. My region should be seeing warmer days after this weekend! Seilidhe - if you are ok with dairy, I tried adding sharp cheddar cheese to the cauli mash or rice... makes it better, but…

Seilidhe, I found I couldn't give up carbs either, so I try to look for options for favorite starch/carb foods. I found a bread by Schmidt called 647 bread. 6g net carb, 40 cal, 7g fiber per slice. I don't feel guilty making a sandwich with this! Also the Dave's Killer Breads are good, healthy grain style. I use cauli &…

Good morning! 2/14 - 165 I'm back! Cast is finally off, so this is my first check-in for a few weeks. Happy to report I held to same weight and didn't regain, as I wasn't able to exercise for almost 3 weeks. I tried to watch calorie intake and keep the water going. Ready to resume logging, measuring and meal planning to…

Weekly check in - Did ok this week with logging meals and snacks, I cook a lot from scratch so my diary is sometimes very detailed. I try to add each ingredient/amount that I use if I can't find a comparable item in the list of foods. Did not do great with exercise this week, but got in a few walks and 1 you tube workout…

Hubby had pizza for dinner last night :/ - agree with everyone's comments. I can't touch it. I ate riced cauli/sweet potato/Morning Star crumble with apple/gouda chicken sausage. I think I won! :D Wine for me, but usually one glass is enough.

Good Morning - It was a good week with logging and sticking to my planned menu. My "eye it up" estimates are always over the portion sizes, so I need to use my scale at all times. I tried a few you tube dance workouts this week in addition to outdoor walks for a change-up. I'm still amazed at my lack of co-ordination,…

Hi All - I've been logging at every meal, and if I don't then I catch up before the end of the day. So that's going well! Exercise (outdoors) still a challenge for me, once I'm out there its all good but the bundling up, ugh... (cold temps for me are anything below 40 degrees F, lol). I picked up some red quinoa and chia…
