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

Do y’all get in ruts with food? I’ve had the same thing for lunch every day for a week. Still enjoying it though! Deli turkey wrap made with a carb balance tortilla, turkey, light cream cheese, and a sprinkle of everything but the bagel seasoning.

All of the time! I can barely post here because I’m eating the same thing so often ?

In hear ya, i’ve been posting basically the same salad for 3 years lol

Dinner last night, it looked much better in person!

Miso glazed cod (à al Mr.) and lightly battered fried onions (à la Moi). Black cod is my fave fish btw, meaty texture like lobster, yum ?

I eat the same things for lunch all the time. chicken tenders & salad or prawns & salad & slight variations of the same. Means I don’t have to think about what to eat, portion size, Protein content, etc. I think if I still enjoy it, I’ll keep eating it. Today I’m making garlic prawns as I couldn’t get my usual cooked prawns. I’ll just eat the prawns.

Yes I eat the same thing every day for lunch and sometimes for dinner if what the fam is eating is like pasta or something I don’t eat. And I eat it on the weekends. Love love love my salads!!
Def no judgements here!! Lol

Honey BBQ chicken, couscous and mixed greens. I finished almost everything but forgot to take a pic.

I’m currently teaching my youngest daughter various recipes she wants to learn, but honestly I can’t wait for the day when I'm presented with a complete meal I had nothing to do with. ?

Everything LOOKS so yummy! Penn State is known for their amazing creamery - sooooo local hotel features bathroom wall coverings in WA -LA!

Tonite’s dinner: chicken wings and fries.

326 calories.

Ate all 3 wings and like 3 fries (the kid gobbled them up before i got to them ?)

My mom wanted to go to lunch today as a family so we went to my dad’s favorite Chinese buffet. They make these amazing garlic green beans so that’s mostly what I ate. I didn’t even touch the rice I got. After, I spent a few hours gardening and picked my first strawberries of the year! So good!

This was dinner tonight.

Where is the best place online to order the multi-vitamins

Depends where you are but I recommend the Bariatricpal store & Amazon. I think have also used iherb and vitacost in the past but I’m not sure about the quality these days.

Turkey & cheese sandwich on keto bread.

The log says “wheat bread” but it’s their new white bread (it’s just not in the database yet). As usual I use only one slice of bread and slice it into two.

Also this sandwich was clearly meant to be a salad in another life. ?

I’m always shocked when I see that it’s only ~300 cals for this whole thing

Taco cups with vegetarian ground meat, cheese, tomato, guacamole and salsa. I could only eat one and some broccoli.
