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

Did you make the actually taco cups yourself? At first I was thinking they were Tostitos scoops but they look bigger.

These look restaurant-gooooood

It was a Costco shopping day and the Kid specifically asked for Costco Hot Dogs for dinner (which i concede to her opinion that it is actually THE best hot dog of all time).

I had mine bun-less with ketchup, mustard, cheese and crispy fried onion topping.

An an eye-widening 617 calories!

Basically cleaned my plate (saucer) save half the hot dog, so im gonna adjust the entry to 432 cals later cuz i’m watching Mr. sneakily eat my leftovers in the kitchen as we speak. Like i can’t see you! Lololzzz.

P.S. anyone else go to Costco and end up buying 5x more than you intended??? It happens to us Every. Single. Time. ?

Usually, yes -- but today I went and got only the items on my list. ? (It helped that the store was mobbed, so I couldn't do my usual browsing.)

The garlic prawns I had for lunch the other day. Couldn’t be bothered to add anything else so just ate the prawns alone. Anyone else have meals where you just eat protein too?

I feel your pain! HAH! I used to spend 3x more at Bj's than intended. Now, I do online orders and pick them up so I only spend 2x as much. lol

This is just another aspect of my Costco shopping problem: when I see a mob of people gathered around a product, I’m all, oooohh something must be good, i should get it too!

Online orders. Brilliant. If I can’t see it, I can’t buy it!

First crack at my salad this AM. I had to tap out after eating most of the cut-up chicken pizza crust i threw on there. Man that stuff is filling.

Will def eat the rest of this later and even warned (threatened? lol) the fam to keep their paws off it.

353 cals for the whole bowl.

I was the same with squid & octopus. Just thought they were just different names for the same thing in different countries. Like cilantro & coriander. Cos & romaine. ?

So this was the breakfast i made for The Kid this morning.

It looked (and smelled) so good that i had to swipe a triangle to eat.

Now i am almost never hungry/cravey this early in the morning nor do i eat before noon, but man, toasted brioche bread is like what i think Perfection smells like, if it had a smell.

French-style omelette on a slice of toasted brioche which shaved Parmesan. 1 triangle == 91 calories.

Already in my tum digesting.

I made this salad earlier this afternoon, (311 calories), but then decided i didn’t feel like eating it so put it back in the fridge.

Then Mr. grilled up some steaks a couple hours later, so of course preferred to eat that instead, so the salad is gonna stay in the fridge for tomorrow!

Rib-eye, roasted potatoes and sautéed portobello mushrooms: 402 calories for the plate/saucer.

OmG the steak was so good, i gave it the all-Canadian try, but this is as far as I could get. I already know someone is going to eat it, so im gonna adjust the MFP entry for the steak later.
