So I’ve hit a stall 😩 I will get through this. I’m starting to feel better. And I know I can do this. I’m swapping my egg to later, no cheese, and having a protien Shake this morning. Lunch I’m having tuna, which I think I’ll add avocado into along with some of my new flavorless protein powder. Same for dinner adding the protein powder

My doctor just said I have to be able to chew my food to a pulp before I can eat it for now. So I’m eating soups/stews/casserole like things that are super soft after long cooking because low and slow mean more flavor and tender. Day one I had a pretty. Bland version of my favorite soup, but now I’m alive again so I’m back to dry roasting my spice blends, making sure color makes it on to my onions, garlic and meat etc and such so that layers of flavor build. 😍 I’m pretty sure I could have shrimp which has 10 grams of protein in it. However I’d have to come up with a w30 cocktail sauce first to try it with lol. :) I want to try some fried rice too however instead of rice I’d of course use cauliflower rice.

I think I’m about to start a stall. I’ve been losing a little over a lb a day but started on food this week and this morning I’d only lost 1/2 a pound. Ugh. It was a little disheartening I’m 20.3 lbs away from breaking into the 100’s

I’m a firm believer that better ingredients = better food. And when you choose fresh over processed it’s better for you. I’m now making those decisions instead of going to Mcdonalds or bk or whatever every night.

So as promised my enchilada recipe well my brothers with my tweaks in parentheses Ingredients 2 lbs chicken breast (get free range, free of antibiotics and hormones) 2 cans Mexican stewed tomato’s (go organic!!) 1 can diced green chili’s (I actually used 1 fire roasted pepper instead of a can) 2 green onions (organic!!!) 1.5 lbs cheddar cheese (go for grass fed, raised hormone and antibiotic free) Enchilada sauce (honestly we just use the store stuff but I’ll be swapping to homemade whole 30 red enchilada sauce) And tortillas— Bake the chicken at 350 for 23 minutes and let cool. Once cool shred and mix in the tomatoes juice and all, the chili’s, the onions, and 1/2 cheddar cheese and 1/3 the enchilada sauce put some enchilada sauce on the bottom of a 9x13 sauce pan and warm the tortillas. Dip each tortilla in enchilada sauce then put some of the chicken mix inside and wrap up. Place in the baking dish. Bake for 30 minutes at 350 covered then unconvered add the remaining cheese on top for an additional 15 minutes. Serve with Mexican rice (cauliflower rice!!) and sour cream :) enjoy.

Nvm found a recipe to replace it that has double the protien and only 4g carbs

How many carbs per serving are too much? Saw something with 14g of carbs but 8g protein and only 1g sugar?? Not sure if that’s acceptable or not. Idk I might put it off for now.

Maybe put them in a scrap book or something

Tape both ends to the wall so it doesn’t dangle

Just saw my favorite snack and kind of cried. I miss you popcorn 🍿😭😭😭😭

So I made my egg this morning Mcdonalds egg McMuffin style instead of boiled and it’s going down easier. It’s moist, water did the job without having to use butter or oil 😁 added a little cheese. 10.3 grams protien only 2.4 grams carbs. And 142 calories. When I start eating more I’ll add ham so a healthy egg McMuffin without the muffin 😂 also quick note—in an emergency an egg McMuffin is awesome without the McMuffin. But only emergency 🚨

I’ll post this here too:

Found this for anyone who stalls might help.

@ellie123 I litterally just stuck my measuring cup in the soup and pulled out a quarter cup

1/4 cup of chicken enchilada minus the tortilla. With just a dab of sour cream

Ellie where in Texas are you from?? I’m working on moving to temple in the next couple years :)

No problem :) here’s the recipe: 1 lb sweet Italian sausage (Whole Foods) A little olive oil (California olive ranch) Most of 1 head of cauliflower A decent amount of kale 2 boxes of low sodium chicken broth 1 can coconut milk Using an instant pot—I used the sauté function and sautéed the sausage with the oil. Once it was sautéed I basically dumped the rest of the ingredients in and put it on pressure cook mode on high for 15 minutes. When it was done I dumped in the coconut milk in and stirred. Later when I’m better off on food I will add in 1 sautéed diced white onion, 2 cloves minced garlic, salt and pepper. If you have enough room serve with the Keto garlic bread I shared above 😂😂😂

Ellie I made soup that has veggies and meat in it and just scooped out a 1/4 cup into one of my little bowls. Then I used my take out containers and measured 1/4 cup into each and froze them for quick meals later too. :)

Has anyone tried sour cream???

Ellie I have a measuring cup that I use to measure out my food too

How do you fit water in between the food!! My plan says no water 30 minutes before or after and take 20 minutes to eat for you that’s 6 hours and 40 minutes where you can’t drink!!! If that’s how your plan is. I know it takes me about an hour to drink 8 oz of water. Sometimes less sometimes longer.

I’m a total 🤓 nerd. I packed: a surge protector, my laptop my phone, my DS and my beats headphones and cords for all. I also brought my own pillow. Seriously the best thing I brought. I wore company clothes in and wore them out. Didn’t do much I was so out of it after. And omg the gas pain. Walk as soon as you can, but also ask for warmed blankets to just put on wherever the pain is.

Nyjenn it’s a treat that we litterally have 1 time a year. I won’t be setting an example to anyone.

@mercmerc I haven’t hit a stall yet but yes they happen. Just when it happens 1) make sure what you’re doing is right for your body, change things up. If that doesn’t work then just keep pushing. The stall will end.

So I’ve been thinking about eating lately—like how it’ll work a year from now or 2. Is it always going to be 1/4 cup 3x a day?
