Can you give me some examples of what you ate today from morning to late?

I want to see how you guys practice the diet and if I can do it myself by not being a bacon and ham girl.

Hello and welcome! I'm new here too!

I feel really positive about this WOE, so I'm really sticking to it, even though I'm not losing a whole lot.
(5 lbs in a month). Of course, I only need to lose around 20-30 lbs, and I'm 47, so it will be slow (so Ive been told)

Anyway here is my menu for today:

B'fast: flax bread, 1 egg, parsey and cheese omelette, 2 sl. bacon

Lunch: sauteed cabbage, 2 pork chops

snack: celery w/cream cheese

Supper: green salad with tuna

Of course, lots of water throughout the day (2-3 liters)

Hope this helps! Good luck!

[SallyBrown]

You don't need bacon or ham for this diet if you don't like it..... use chicken or anything else you like! I have had a beef patty with mustard for breakfast and loved it!
Welcome and keep in touch!
