Food Before and After Photos

Like weight loss before and after photos but of your new diet !

I'm especially interested in before and after meal photos (take a pic at the point you feel restriction) but it can be of recipe substitutions, your refrigerator/pantry/shopping cart/etc

    I love chicken pad Thai so much, but I haven't had it in months. I used to eat a full order in a sitting at least once a week. Last night i asked if they could replace the rice noodles with bean sprou

Ohhh! Great idea!!! I will do this next time! (ermmmm I'm guilty of ignoring that first little tale-tell sign cuz experience taught me that if I stop at that point I don't stay full for longer than 2hours and I don't want to be spiking insulin every 2 hours. I guess that's probably a problem? just spitballing...)

My latest crush. I get into "food jags" where I'm intensely satisfied with the satiety, satisfaction/taste of a meal and then repeat it till I'm done with it for a few months. This latest is my "eggwhite foldover"--think of it like an eggwhite soft taco with a slice of Hillshire Farms Naturals Black Forest Ham a slice or wedge of low fat cheese, hot sauce of some kind, and baby arugula or greens of some kind. Totes yum!

It's a great protein bang for the calorie buck. I could have stopped about 1/2 way through but well...you know.

There were no survivors. :) :(

Made this last night and had leftovers for lunch. Smoked a lean carnitas (Frontera) marinated pork loin. I’m lucky, my husband really knows how to smoke and grill and I’m a decent cook.

This is 2 oz with 2 Mission street corn tortillas, a teaspoon of pineapple salsa. It was amazing and 160 calories. I can stay on plan because I eat well and don’t feel deprived.

Well...we took this pic with me attempting to hold up the plate to my chest. Based on this, I'd say: very small egg breasts. Though the teeny egg boobs are still way more perky than my own. ?IMG_2962.thumb.jpg.6d59b8da3af05fd779d03ebadecf46e5.jpg

And a lot of people aren't into fluffy omlets, those egg blobs look. mighty fine to me and YES they DO LOOK PERKY!

10 days on clearer liquids not even full liquids

I find out late next week if they will advance me quicker but I'm in no rush honestly, no appetite.

First meal of the day: "Egg taco" shell a la @FluffyChix, grilled chicken, spinach, carrots, cucumber, shredded cheddar cheese & Peri Peri Sauce (the entire thing is 167 calories, 20g protein, 1.8 net carbs, 8g fat)

Ok, so this was delicious. A little too delicious that I took about 4 bites that were too big and too close together (i.e., one after the other with no break in between), and now I am too full. So the leftovers are going into the fridge for now and I'll take another crack at it (slowly!) in a few hours....looking forward to it...#yum.

Wow, it's all so different. I was allowed protein waters right after my revision and shakes within a couple of days.
