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

A Salad! It’s been absent in my diet for a while but I think salads will become a staple again.

Crispy chicken salad

Dinner last night....filet, portabellas, broccoli, cauliflower and a small dose of horseradish sauce.

Looks good!

Another salad ☺️

Fixed myself a bowl of this Levantine inspired bowl. Chicken cooked in a garlicky yogurt gravy with cauliflower and topped with crispy ground beef. I added scallions, parsley and chili crisp. How I did ?

I ended up finishing it (took me a couple of hours though). Guessing around 250-300 calories for the bowl?

Dinner last night…..

This was two meals….and the only eats on both days.

Would be much better if I would have had a little bit every couple hours through the day…but didn’t sop to eat.

Boneless chicken, powdered ranch dressing and onions-peppers with a splash of heavy cream and chicken broth.

Celebrated my birthday last weekend and took an impromptu trip which consisted of visiting an obscene number of restaurants and trying different yummy foods. The highlight was this dessert platter the hubby ordered as my birthday cake:

It had an insane amount of desserts. Guess what, I had a sever dumping episode after ingesting some of this monstrosity.
A few of the desserts that were offered:

Molten lava cake (had around half because it was effin delicious)

Banana green tea cake (also yummy, only took one bite)

A coconut custard topped with tropical fruits and passion fruit foam (two bites)

2 scoops of regular vanilla and vanilla bean ice cream

Pistachio Mochi (ate half)

Mango and passion fruit sorbets

An endless amount of fruit

Man I was so so stuffed. I need to post what normal food I ate soon Lol.
