What is the best thing you've eaten lately that was on plan for you? (Not something from a cheat, but something that was in line with what your current plan is.)

I'll start! Last night, I tried making breading out of crushed pork rinds and grated parm. It worked out fantastic. I crushed about a cup of spicy pork rinds as small as I could get 'em and mixed them with an equal amount of grated parm. We then took some boneless, center-cut pork chops and pounded them thin, tossed them in the "breading" and washed them in eggs (twice for each) and then pan-fried. The result? Zesty carb-free pork schnitzel. It was awesome, much closer to the real chicken-fried deal than I had any right to even hope.

Each little chop came out to 253 calories, 32 grams of protein and zero carbs.

It was terrific.

Oh yum yum. Wish you were in Ohio, I'd fight you for just a taste.

I'm pre-pre-op. Salmon filets baked in foil pockets with spray of olive oil, squeeze of lemon, garlic, salt, pepper, oregano. I'm crazy about salmon these days.

Premier Protein Caramel premade shakes are surprisingly good

That pork sounds amazing! I'm fairly boring food wise, so the best I've had recently is ground turkey cooked with taco seasoning in a bowl mixed with a little bit of sour cream and refried beans. Lots of flavor and tons of protein. Usually I do 3oz of turkey, .5 oz of sour cream and 1 oz of fat free refried.

Love this question! I guess it depends on what plan you are following. One of my most recent favorites is a mixed green salad tossed in a lemony dressing sprinkled with quinoa or ancient grains with a nice piece of fresh grilled salmon on top. YUM!

The cheese and cracker plate on American Airlines, washed down with some Bloody Mary mix.

Lemon Seseme Ginger Tuna package from Bumble Bee. So good!!!

I had a small salad of cucumber and tomatoes with some balsamic vinegar. It was sooooooo good!

Star kist lemon pepper tuna with a little low fat Kraft mayo stirred into package

Crushed pork rinds are ok to have? I can't imagine, but it sounds good!
