  14. Shemey, Hooray you're on! i am so sorry i didn't get to see your blogs all week. I am seeing a couple of things that we have to work on. First of all, I would like you to start to use the containers and use the terms full or half of a container. You will need to eat 3 full containers of protein and 2 full containers of carbs. You can eat all the veggies you want. Tomatoes are a fruit. Your fats need to be approx. 55g. Fats you have to count yourself. As far as going gluten free like the twins, feel free. There are plenty of alternatives to chose from. bouillon cubes are fine. As long as you're drinking lots of water salt is not bad for you. Don't do the popcorn. Noone can control themselves with that stuff. High in carbs.

    Overall your meals look pretty good. Your cheat meal didn't look too bad at all. I hope you enjoyed. Did you by chance weigh yourself in the morning? If not do not weigh yourself for 3 days and let me know.

  15. Had a late start this morning, had to weigh in.

    9:30 workout

    10:45 banana, 1 E.bread, 1tbsp almond butter (8.5g fat, container of chicken

    3:00 Cheat Mealwith a little bit of greek salad, grilled eggplant a piece of fish and 2 baby lamb chops, 2 glasses of wine.

    Came come at 10:00pm did not eat anything else.

  16. Dawn, Fats and veggies? You probably ate the equivalent of only two containers of protein. Sunflower seeds and a protein shake before bed if you get this message. Please, try to eat real food when ever possible. Take advantage of the weekends to eat real food since you don't have to go to Delaware.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Maryann, i left you a message on facebook to not take fruit and carb out since there was a misunderstanding about the weight. Anyway think you had a great day. Fats low but took into consideration halibut. Smart of you. Lets see what happens when you weigh yourself on wed. Hope you had a great mother's day with your crew.Talk to you tomorrow.

  18. Tracy, How was that cheesecake? Hope you enjoyed. Did you weigh yourself this morning? Your day looked very good.

    I have been sick with a sinus infection, laid up in bed yesterday most of the day. I can understand what you are going through and I appreciate the fact that you have stuck to the diet despite it. Good job.

  19. Marylee, great job. If you look at your cheat meal it was mostly veggies and protein. Love it. Good going.

  20. Ella, Good day. I see you made some great choices for your cheat meal as well. Hope you enjoyed!

    ReplyDelete
  21. Lina, you did great today. you could still have a protein shake before bed if your hungry.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Jody,

    Sadly I did not enjoy the cheesecake like I would of liked to. Nothing tastes good to me at all. Between this severe head cold and legs still hurting from workout on Thursday, I am a bit frustrated. Tomorrow is my kickboxing class so I am hoping to get through that class.

    I submitted my weight in on the weight in thread. Only 1/2 lb :(

    ReplyDelete
  23. I have the same thing. Coughing, congestion and sore throat. It sucks! I took musinex today and it really helped. Taking nightime Robitussin cough, cold and flu before bed.

    I think the fact that you are sick may be playing a big part in the weight loss. Also, you had a really hard workout your muscles are sore so you will retain water as well.Weigh yourself again on wednesday and report back to me.

  27. Jan, first of all you didn't eat 2 containers of carbs could be why you're shakey and craving. I mean good complex carbs not the sugar in your shake. Please try dream protein and get 2 containers of carbs in.

    I don't know why you would be shakey after having your brown rice and chicken. That is odd. Maybe you should have your blood sugar tested. Can your father do that for you. I am concerned because noone else seems to be going through what you are going through.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Karen, good job. Hope you enjoyed your cheat meal and day in the city.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Lisa, nice! Hope you enjosyed. What was the weight difference?

    ReplyDelete
  30. blood sugar is fine - i was shakey before i ate not after

    ReplyDelete
  31. glucose on march 24 was 96 - totally normal
    i have something called hashimotos thyroiditis - not sure if that has anything to do with anything though - Hashimoto's Thyroiditis is a type of autoimmune thyroid disease in which the immune system attacks and destroys the thyroid gland. The thyroid helps set the rate of metabolism as u know, which is the rate at which the body uses energy. Hashimoto’s stops the gland from making enough thyroid hormones for the body to work the way it should.

  33. Jacqui, You may have had a bit too much fruit. Corn is not the best choice for vegetable. Beware turkey sausage may have a lot of fat in it. Please check the label and consider that in your daily fat intake.
