OK, Thanksgiving is over, we're not going to dwell on the weekend. Today is Monday, the best day of the week to begin anew.
B - steel cut oats w/ brown sugar, cinnamon and raisins, soy milk, banana
L - turkey sandwich (what else?), carrots and tomatos, yougart
D - turkey tetrazzina, salad
S - apple
64-80 0z water
Only a few more weeks of temptations, then January will be upon us, Christmas will only be a memory. Let's make them good ones.
 
Hey Robin,

I haven't planned out my menu today so I will have to post it this afternoon. So far I know that I will have to have a breakfast on the go. Bkf- orange juice and lowfat and low sugar bkf bar
sn-low sugar smoothie


That's about all I have for right now, but will check in soon! Yes I know that bkf still doesn't sound very healthy. I have no choice this morning.

have a clean menu planned for today, working so no time to post it all but I've been good since my little slip Friday night.
 
ahem,

B-egg whites, oatmeal, coffee
sn-protein bar
l-salad with either tuna or grilled chicken
d-brown rice and veggies
s-fruit and protein shake

Oh boy. I truly need this. Weekends are SO my downfall:(

B - Steel cut oats with 1/2 diced apple, soy milk, cinnamon
S - 2 graham wafers with 2 tsp pb, 1/2 apple
L - 2 cups greens, 2 oz feta, 1/3 cup black beans, 1/2 cup grape tomatoes, 2 tbsp vinaigrette, 1/2 toasted 12 grain bagel
S - yogurt, clementine
D - Brown rice with veggies and beans
S - protein shake
 
I need this check in but I am not a planner. I never know what I'm going to eat until the moment is before me. I'm trying to change my ways because I think I'd be more likely to eat clean if I planned for it, but you know what they say about old dogs--LOL!

B - whole grain toast with peanut butter and a clementine.
S - apple and l/f cheese
L - minestrone and salad
S - ?
D - ?
S - ?

I'm working on it. I will say this--I'm so glad I made a pot of minestrone last week because that had me eating clean and low cal for a few days before and a few days after Thanksgiving.

Well, due to a huge weight gain over the weekend (though I'm hoping most of it is water weight), I'm joining in here...

breakfast - Healthy Heart cereal with fat free milk plus extra 4 oz. of milk to drink

snack - 1 percent cottage cheese with blueberries

lunch - salad with walnuts and baked chicken and a limited amount of sun-dried tomato dressing, plus a Granny smith apple and a CokeZero

dinner - pasta salad with baked chicken

snack - protein shake (I'm expecting a new one in the mail, today! Peanut Butter Chocolate! :9 )
 
Hi Everyone,

Now that the holiday is behind us we need to get back on track.

1. protein shake
2. steel cut oats, eggwhites with peppers
3. salad with turkey
4. turkey and apple
5. I have no idea???
6. protein shake, maybe

Here's to the start of a new week.

I'm not a planner either. Have to wait and see what sounds good as I get hungry.
B- cream of wheat with splenda brown sugar & ff milk
L- tuna on mixed greens, cottage cheese

am thinking about a protein smoothie of some kind now.....

dinner, I have no idea yet.
 
Oh, I really need to be here today. Here is what I have had so far.

Breakfast-power balance bar
S-kashi go lean crunch
L-hummus on wheat tortilla with tomatoes and cottage cheese
don't know about dinner yet.

Maybe you "not a planner" posters can post what you ate the day before. You wouldn't have to worry about planning, but would still be accountable. Just a suggestion, take it or leave it....
 
Thanks Robin. That's actually a good idea. Now, do you have any suggestions on how I can remember what I ate yesterday!? LOL!!

ETA one of my problems is that I tend to grocery shop on an almost daily basis. I don't have children so I don't have to stockpile groceries. I tend to buy fresh foods in smaller quantities.

Michele
 
Thanks for pointing out that we dont have to dwell on the weekend... :) Just going to put that 4 day pig-out fest behind me... Well - maybe it is already behind me - on my butt and thighs... hehe...

For today -

B- PB&J on WW
S - Oatmeal and protein shake
L - Tune salad from Subway
S - ?? (maybe reduced fat Triscuits & cheese)
D - Chicken and veggies of some kind.

I have been working on spicing up the chicken and have found a lot of Chinese food type of seasoning packets that I can modify (without using all the oil and such) and load with veggies that has been making it easier to have a bigger variety of chicken options. Might have to go with the Schezuan or Lemon Chicken tonight. Nummy...

Have a great eating day!
 
I'm so here today....

B - fiber one cereal w/banana and skim milk
L - fat free vanilla yogurt
S - cottage cheese
D - grilled chicken, peas, salad
S - apple

I like Shelley's menu the best - yum!

Tammy
 
Tammy - I'm doing the eating plan from the one-before-the-latest issue of Oxygen. I have to modify a bit because 1400 calories isn't enough for me and also because I'm vegetarian, but it's working out quite well.

Except today when I left work early to come home because I wasn't feeling well and apparently I'm making myself feel better by stuffing inappropriate food down my throat.x(
 
B - Egg beaters with one pc WW toast, oatmeal and blueberries, coffee with creamer

Sn - sweet potato protein shake

Ln - 1 cup Campbell soup - sirloin with vegies (I know, I know SODIUM), toasted cheese sandwich with WW bread and 2% cheese

Sn - 1/2 cup cottage cheese, 1/2 cup pomegranate seeds

Dn - turkey pot pie (low fat version), large salad with blueberry/pomegranate vinagerette
 
Jane, you did a lot better than me.
I was doing great to start.......
B-cream of wheat
L-tuna on mixed greens, cottage cheese
s- chocolate soy milk, pb, banana smoothie
But then........
ANOTHER SNACK???? POPCORN
D- mac & cheese??? (lower fat recipe, but still......!! No veggies just mac & cheese!!!) ackkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Now I am stuffed and bloated and thirsty from too much salt . ( popcorn is the 3-flavors in a tin you buy around the holidays that I am addicted to!!!)
