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

So this might be a stupid question, but does everyone save leftovers for subsequent meals or is there a lot of food being thrown out? Seems very wasteful if you're not eating everything prepared.

With meat I'll usually make a portion that will last a few days. At meal time I'll take 1 to 2oz and eat that.

Honestly I’m still trying to figure out left over situation. I throw a lot more food out then I used to. That’s even with multi days of left overs... Especially fruits and veggies because I keep wanting to eat a lot of these or think I’m going to freeze em to do something with later.

All these meals look amazing. I eat the most generic boring things at this point it's not even worth taking and posting pics of it. I mainly eat eggs or chicken breast.

We still want to see it!

I freeze and share foods. I only eat certain fruits and vegetables anyway but they tend to freeze well (even in recipes) and I give away meals to friends too. I'm always sharing meals.

Thanks all, I guess I'll learn what I can do once I go through this myself and adjust accordingly. My plan is to eat the same things I feed the rest of my family so I just take a little at a time.

Behold it's greatness. 2 eggs scrambled with sauteed diced onions and diced weight watchers cheese stick. Magical

No offense, it reminds me of the fake vomit you could buy at a joke store back in the day...

Drool. I heart me some PF Changs. Lettuce Wraps and Dan Dan Noodles used to be my absolute faves!!!

The Chicken Lettuce wraps aren't a bad choice nutritionally. It's 660 calories, but the serving is pretty huge, 38 g of protein. And it's great for leftovers. Not that I could take the leftovers ... sigh ....

Most of my pics are meals out, without the ability to take home leftovers.

At home I generally only serve myself what I know I can eat.

If I'm eating out near home, then I usually order leftover friendly food, and take it home. There is still usually a lot of waste though because you can only eat so many meals of the same leftover until you just want to throw it out.

Makes sense, I would imagine you can get sick of the same thing so many meals in a row. Thanks

Also- I made so many, because I’m bringing some to my surgery buddy to try!

My heart hurts. How dare you make fun of my glorious scrambled eggs. I worked for minutes on those and they tasted just as boring as every other scrambled egg meal I've made.
