Edited: Monday 6/4 Food Thread

[Deleted]

Is anyone interested in doing a daily thread where we all post what we have eaten each day? I know it would help to keep me accountable. It also doesn't need to be limited to people who are participating in the contest.

[madringal]

I am game. I used to particiapte in the planned eating/exercise daily thread on H&F and it really helped.

[futurepivko]

I'm up for it!

I was hoping we would do something like this. I'm a major stress eater so I need help staying in line. I all ready have a list of rewards I get for every 2 pounds I lose!

I'd participate. I've been in maintenance mode for a few years now but in the last 8mos the weight has been creeping back on. I think having to see what everyone else is eating compared to what I want to eat will help get me back on track and back to goal weight.

Today I had:
Breakfast - coffee, wheat toast w/ yogurt butter
Lunch - lentils w/ rice and red pepper salsa
Dinner - will be shrimp w/ stir-fried veggies and an eggroll

I forgot, I had a 12oz Coke (leaded, not diet) today too.

[madringal]

My meals today:

breakfast - greek yougurt, banana, and coffee with creamer
Lunch, turkey sandwich on wheat with colby jack cheese and lettuce, starwberries, and a cucumber
Snack - a fiber one bar
Dinner - leftovers from yesterday (penne and meatballs)
Snack 2 - I usually eat something in the evening to help me use up any WW points I didn't eat earlier. If I have time to eat a bigger breakfast, I usually just have a few points to use up. Tonight I will have about 12 points left, so I will probably eat a PB&J. Since I am EBF - I have to eat up all my points.

I skipped breakfast (not good, I know) and didn't eat until lunch. I don't make a habit of this.

Lunch - baked chicken with about 1 tbsp bbq sauce, ear of grilled corn with 1 tsp margerine and lightly salted (these were dinner leftovers).

I'm not sure what dinner will be, but do know I'm having a couple of Fiber One haystacks as a snack!

2.5L of water so far. I normally do 4L by the end of the day.

I just had dinner. Neither of us wanted to cook, so DH brought home Boston Market. I had turkey with a tiny bit of gravy and mixed veggies (carrots, broccoli, and zucchini). Oh, I also ate the cornbread, which is probably not good.

Later this evening I'll have two of the Fiber One haystacks for dessert.

Thanks! The smashed potato thing is my go-to when I have no real motivation to cook. It's just red potatoes mashed into mashed potatoes (sometimes skin, sometimes no skin) and then I throw in whatever veggies I have on hand that seem like they would go good together. It's so easy, but so awesome.

[bimbi284]

I suppose I'll play!

BFast: 1 slice TJs whole grain toast with TJs crunchy peanut butter
Lunch: Veggie burrito bowl from Chipotle with brown rice, mild salsa, black beans, cheese, guac, and lettuce
Dinner: TJs salmon burger w/ slice of monterey jack cheese on a skinny bun, side of TJs garlic fries (oops! But SO DAMN GOOD!)

Oops, dinner turned out to be hot wings with mac and cheese. Oh, and three glasses of wine.

Yesterday I had a smallish bagel for breakfast. Lunch was a big salad and dinner was sandwiches toasted under the broiler and chips. Not the greatest food day but not the worst. I ran 4.6 miles for exercise.
