Well, day7 on p1 and I decided I need to stop reading all of these threads and actually start contributing and keeping up with my food on a daily journal. I think this will be a good way for me to keep track of my progress and hold me to some accountability. This week I'm going to eat more hearty in the day and a little lighter in the evening because I dont think I need the energy as much
B- Soy Protein Shake -no carbs, Egg and ham cup
S1 S/F strawberry flaxmeal muffin
S-1/2 S/F Chocolate flaxmeal muffin
L-Meatloaf -coleslaw
S-Key lime ricotta
D-Curry Chicken, steamed Kale and vegetables
Dessert-3 sugar free candies |

Thanks A
Well after my first posting I realized I'm probably eating more than I'm supposed. At least for breakfast, but I think I want to ride it out around the same level for the next two weeks to see how I do. My weight went back to 170 but that might be because Aunt Flo is still here. I really feel that this change of eating in general will really get my body to the healthy way it should be. For this phase 1 I would be happy if I just lost 2lbs a week becaue for me thats still good.
b- Protein shake w/water
Egg ham cups
S- 2 s/f salt water taffy's
L sf vanilla latte, 2 pieces of curry chicken and Kale
I just finished lunch and realized I didn't have an ounce of carbs in my so I bought a Latte, the instant I drank it I felt better. I've got to remember to have a little bit of good carbs in the morning and a glass of milk has been my survival method in the morning with my shake. I feel pretty good. but this afternoon I have a retirement party to go to for someon at work so I hope they have vegetables because I need something to eat while they gorge on a oh so heavenly piece of cake.
Tonight for dinner I think I'll make more curry chicken with some vegetables. curry and cumin are great flavor boosters especially when I'm trying to avoid sodium and salt. |

Such a busy day today. Day 9 p1
Well yesterday at the retirement party there was a spread of food and although there were a lot of tempting things, I stayed strictly on SBD food. Overindulged a little since I just had lunch and hour before but I considered that my dinner last night.
I also had a chocolate flaxmeal muffin and finally figured out that by using the smaller cupcake pans, my muffins weren't soggy and nasty. I also figured out how to fix my cream cheese frosting so that was a treat.
Food log
B- soy protein shake/milk
S- 2 mini CF muffins
L- sauteed mushrooms, small chicken on a salad, 1 string cheese
S Diet Vanilla Cole and string cheese
D Chicken and whatever else i add today.
Today has been a really good SBD day I turned down a box of FREE Sees candies today. I can't believe it!! Along with a Free lunch that looked oh so good. I;m back down to 168 but really waiting to see if anything changes when I reach the 2 week mark next wed. |

Day 10
B-Soy shake
b-2 min flaxmeal muffins
L-Salad, egg quiche
Diet coke
2 sf salt water candies.
Lunch was a killer today went out with a large group of women and Everyone had hamburgers with seasoned fries and I had the salad buffet, which looked good but ended up being really gross. I was really proud of myself for not craving their food though, even though mine was nasty.
Last night I overindulged too much on s/f wafer cookies that I know are not level 1. I told myself I'd only have on but had 6 instead. Felt bad but it was oh so good.
My goals for this weekend are to not eat to many flax muffins and stick with SBD habits. I've read about so many breakdowns over the weekend and I dont want that to happen. My weight is still hovering the same number so hopefully by next week I'll at least drop 2 more lbs. I would really love to lose 6lb in p1. |

Well this weekend I really thought I would be able to stick on my eating plan but I truly failed. Went to a BBQ and ate all SBD foods until I broke in to some brownies. I've been so good and turned down so many other goodies but I just did it. Then went to sizzlers for dinner had steak and shrimp and was still hungry so I broke into the cheesebread and ate my rice. Sunday I felt I already broke my food habits so I said why not just make it a break down weekend and had sandwich and fries for lunch and ravioli for dinner. I dont know why I just couldn't stop, Its not like I dont enjoy SBD foods. Except I think I'm sick of flaxmeal muffins so I need to take a break from that.
I really want to get myself in shape. I think I'll continue with the end of phase one which is supposed to stop on wednesday, and go straight into phase 2 and work out. I need to stop being lazy and think that just changing my eating habits is going to do it. I need to fully incorporate this health regime. |

Don't stress about it. But it's definitely a slippery slope...once you give in, it's so much easier to keep sliding. Hope you are back on track today. I have friends who do Atkins' that take a carb break every now and then and have a weekend similar to yours. They say it helps. I wouldn't advise it, but it definitely isn't the end of the world.

Okay its been awhile and thats because I not only felll of the SBD Wagon, but I was rolling down the hill.
Today I will attempt to restart my SBD plan at p1.5 and actually start incorporating excercise at least 3 times a week. I think by doing 1.5 I will be better off because if I can't find food at a p1 meal I completely break down and just go off SBD completely.
I am going to try and set in my schedule the days to work out that are convenient as T/W .F S/SU and try and stretch for 20 minutes three times a week. This doesn't seem like a big deal with stretching but for me it really is because I have lost so much flexibility and hate to stretch.
I've also decided to set my mini goals that I would be happy with.
so far my food schedule is
B-Soy Shake
S-Atkins shake (didn't make bfst stuff)
L- Balsamic herb salad-mozz cheese
S-Laughing cow cheese and Broccoli
D-Tilapia fish with cilantro and mushroom sauce (cuisinart is the best) a half cup of couscous. |

S-LC Cheese/ricotto banana creme
D-Leftover Fish/couscous |

| I forgot. I wanted to actually put in my journal that I seriously need to have my DB hide the scale because I am so obsessed with weighing myself everyday. So obsessed. If he can just take it out once a week that would be good. |

B-Yogurt
S-Egg souffle
L-Tuna, Cucumbers
S-Egg Souffle
S-Ricotta
D- Steak / Veggies
Okay so I didnt have my DB hide my scale so I stepped on it this morning and I'm at 167 which I'm not going to count because it hasn't been one full week and I would be disapointed if it stays the same the whole week. But.... Tomorrow If I'm below 167 I'm going to count it because that really means I am 167 for sure.
Today I plan to excercise for 30 minutes on the elliptical and do 10 minutes of weights. |

Pat on the back for me!!!!!! I worked out yesterday after work. I did 10 minutes of stretching, 30 minutes on the elliptical and 3 sets of Arm weights. I even cooked meatloaf for the first time along with Mock mash potatoes. Can I say how surprisingly good the cauliflower was. I can only have a little bit of it because I can only have so much cauliflower, but it reminded me how good steamed cauliflower can be. I think the best way to make it is to microwave the cauliflower because there is definately less juice. Which is what I heard people complaining about. I used the good ol cuisinart to match the cauliflower and add butter and sour cream. My boyfriend said it was pretty good, but I'm sure its not something he'll have for leftovers tonight. The meatloaf was good to I used turkey and sirloin beef, seasoned it and added flaxmeal and carb options barbecue sauce (a little bit of real ketchup also)
Menu for today:
B-pudding/ricotta mixed together
Egg cup
L-Meatloaf! creamed cauliflower
S-Cucumbers and LC Cheese
D- Meatloaf! Creamed Cauliflower |
