I get a lot of questions about "what do you eat?" Instead of trying to explain portion size, or what exactly I eat, I figure pictures work a little better.

Tonight's menu:

T-Bone (approx. 1 inch thick after grilling over charcoal) steak with A1 thick & hearty sauce (I ate all but 2 bites of the steak)

Green Giant Veggie Medley (new potatoes, snap peas I don't eat the shells, and red peppers) Steamed with herb sauce (I only ate 2 of the smaller potatoes pictured).

As you can see, even at 7 months out, I still off a salad plate.

I feel 100% satisfied. The steak was cooked about medium, and I was able to chew it normally. It took me about 35 minutes to eat tonight.

After looking at that ... Who's hungry besides me? :thumbup:

Tiffy that's actually quite a bit of meat. I don't think I can eat that much steak. Mushy foods I can eat more of, but steak or chicken makes me full after about 5 bites.

You are really eating so healthy!

WTG!

Thank you. . . I counted it out as 9 bites, and I think the A1 helps make it easier to go down. It's a bad habit I picked up with the band. My meat has to be moist, and John said, that I grilled the steak just a bit more than medium rare. So, it was super tender, and pretty mushy. A couple of bites, and it had the consistency of tuna salad with mayo. Maybe that's why I could eat so much tonight? I probably could have eaten the other potatoes, but I got a twinge, and am not willing to push any limits.

I'm having a glass of wine tonight in celebration of the new season Project Runway ! ! ! I definitely got in plenty of calories today. Stayed at around 58 carbs, so I'm content with intake today. I need to check the carb count on wine since I've never plugged into myfitnesspal to check it. I may be over on my carbs for today, but I'm content.

I had my 6 month labs pulled today including cholesterol, full thyroid panel, folic acid/b12, vit d, vit d3. . . Should have all the results by Monday. I'm stoked to see my results.

Oh I can't wait to hear how they come out. I am bummed that my vit D 3 has not gone up at all and I am anemic. Iron is not fun to take and you have to be so careful as to when to take it.

Are you going to be in the chat room tonight?

Yeah, I'll be in chat in about 40 minutes. Project Runway is on. . .

thanks for sharing tiff, today i'm not interested in eating anything. . . everything is sooo incredibly gross looking to me, i'll have a cup of tea . . . don't even want the vitamins, hopefully this will pass. . . this is the first time . . . anyone else ever had this happen at about 3 weeks out?
