The only reason I had a high carb dinner was bc RS cooked way more potatoes than he anticipated lol. It was supposed to be half a bag af hash browns. And we added eggs. But he dumped the whole bag in by accident. So I felt obligated to take a big spoonful. It was delicious though. Then I had a low carb snack. Sopressata and cheese. I have to come up with more low carb snacks because I am getting tired of cheese already.

I am so glad it's working out for you!
I need to pay more attention to my diet and do the same thing!
Yes, can get tired of cheese.
I sometimes eat:
Protein bar
Boiled egg
Pain Greek yogurt with unsweeted berries
High Protein Glucerna or Boost
Cottage Cheese
Maybe nut butter on celery (depending upon the nutritional info)
I often cook extra meat and use the extra for snacks (can be cheaper if buy in bulk and on sale).
Deli meat/cheese (rolled up)
I'll think on it. Am in a bit of a hurry.
I wanted to tell you that each time I interact with you, I learn something that really helps me out. I am thankful for you and our exchanges.
Oh! I'd just read that people who eat protein for breakfast lose 20% more wieght. (?)
I forget the source of that info at the moment.
