Here's mine...complete with my pain in the arse food journal:) So what was your lunch today? Do you keep a food journal?

Never thought I'd see the day when I'd be absolutely full on 6 multigrain scoops:) My puppy got the last one and some of the chili:)

@ChaosUnlimited oh my gosh, that looks so freakin' delicious! If I was hungry right now.....yum!

I love messy, creamy wraps but don't do all the mayo any longer. So I mix some country dijon with a little Duke's and some WF Amazin Chipotle Mayo and sprinkle on granulated garlic. So good.

@ChaosUnlimited Have fun on your snow day! That's what I did yesterday. Totally caught up with Mama June. Psst, your chicken looks AHHHH-may-zing!!! me=wants

Spinach and arugula salad w rotisserie chicken, a couple of dried apricots, a few red grapes & manchego cheese with this awesome new salad dressing I found at Trader Joe's--

Wow some awesome ideas on here! I'm jealous of everyone who can have vegetables and carbs. I can have vegetables, but after hitting my protein target have no room left... I think my target is higher than most maybe. I can dream though :-)

Now I can have salads again I had a chicken Caesar salad. I had some pre cooked diced chicken , toss with some romaine and shaved Parmesan. I like Marzettis yogurt based light Caesar dressing. I can’t eat what I used to, but I’m enjoying eating real food instead of shakes and such for sure!

I made turkey chili last week and froze half of it for next week maybe.

Breakfast:

2 eggs w/ 1tbl feta/ 1/2c. spinach/ wholly guacamole 100 cal pack

16 oz coffee w/ 1c. unsweetened vanilla almond milk

Lunch and Dinner:

3 oz baked chk breast w/ 2 oz green beans

Snacks:

Fage plain yogurt w/ 2 tbl chopped pecans and pumpkin pie spice

Finlandia parmesan/ gouda cheese stick

1/2 oz. almonds

You will get there! Took me more than 18 months! Heck I still relies on shakes for more than a year. Still have them on occasion to meet protein goals and I'm over four years out
