Haven't been eating all that healthy. Gained a few lbs back. Got tired of eating healthy and now that I know what I can and can't eat, it's easier to find food. I do feel happier though. lol. But I'm so bloated. Maybe I should try some activated charcoal.

Intermittent fasting works for me.
I eat with an 8 hour window. Then fast for 16 hours over night. so basically skip breakfast then eat lunch and dinner and snack if I need/want one before 8pm. Then no snacking bed by 11;30. So it works perfectly for me.
Trying to eat as healthy as possible and not over eating.
no calorie counting no carb counting....it works best for me and is working!
Hubby is trying it too. day 2 for him.
I weigh 170.3, almost lowest weight since august.
bizi
I am very happy headed in the right direction.

I weighed 171.0 this morning, which is lower than the last couple of times, but not quite as low as 6 days ago (pretty sure I was dehydrated that morning). More boring reports the last few days, though one thing I have done recently is add a fair amount of oatmeal and/or whole grain bread in the mix and cut back on saturated fat. Trying to get my LDL down from 116 to below 100.

160 cal Potato soup
120 yogurt
140 oatmeal
70 small apple
70 handful of almonds
200 popcorn
total for dinner=760 calories
but I did not drink alcohol!

I have really developed a taste for the Harris Teeter fat free vanilla frozen yogurt. 88g (2/3 cup) with 7g pecan pieces is 180 calories and does a really good job of satisfying my sweet tooth. I still have about 200 calories left for today. I may have some more oatmeal later.

I’m on an antibiotic for supposed Lyme disease. It makes me nauseous if I don’t eat enough with it so I’ve been eating more carbs than usual in the morning and evening. Today I was so upset about starting work again tomorrow that I treated myself to breakfast AND lunch, but I didn’t go extremely unhealthy. Egg McMuffin for breakfast and panera soup for lunch with apple on the side. All in all not too bad. I’m not gonna drinkthis weekend so hopefully I won’t binge again. I don’t go to super bowl parties or drink when I have to work the next day so I should be good. I didn’t lose any weight last week (well, .2 lb) but I didn’t gain either so that’s good. Hoping for a loss this week if I can stay in track.

My friend Susan is cooking dinner for me thursday night, I am to bring fruit. Maybe I should just bring strawberries. They are a low calorie/carb fruit.
I will have lunch at noon and stop eating at 8pm to start another fasting period of time 16 hours.
She is newly divorced and is adjusting to her townhouse and being alone.
Forgot about the super bowl coming up this sunday we usually do something anti superbowlish but she may be working, will find out tomorrow. Jeff is watching the game with some guys.
I work saturday out of town, usually have McDonalds oatmeal but theirs is so fattening! Will have grilled chicken with guacamole, I think I will have the oatmeal! Even though it has a lot of sugar it is still healthier than other side options.
LOL I am always thinking about my next meal! it is only wednesday and I am thinking about my lunch on saturday!!!!
Tomorrows lunch I am hoping for some greek food at the health food store that I eat at 4 days a week....maybe egg plant casserole mousaka, my favorite...will find out tomorrow.
Today I met my friends and had a very quick bite to eat at panera.
It was a chicken lentil/rice quinoa bowl with miso broth. I had them add an egg for more protein. It was very good. I think the miso had a lot of sodium so I might not want to get on the scale tomorrow.

170.2 this morning; the downward trend continues. I have started flavoring my morning yogurt with chocolate PB2, using 4 tbs in 8 oz of fat free plain yogurt. It adds 8 grams of protein and tastes really good (if you like PB and chocolate). I have switched back to regular yogurt instead of Greek; much cheaper, blends better and I am getting protein from the PB2 that makes up a lot of the difference. Also had a banana and whole wheat toast. Lunch is a salad with turkey breast that comes in under 150 calories, leaving me room for a late morning packet of oatmeal, plus a fun size candy bar as a snack. Even with all that, I will still have about half my calories left for dinner and night snacks. My calorie goal is 1520, though I should probably recompute that at my current weight.

EDIT - I recomputed and now it is 1500 per day, which is MFP's minimum for men, and my projected rate of loss is 0.9 pounds per week. I entered that I wanted to lose a pound a week, but it won't give me a number below 1500.

I stuck to my 8 hour window of eating but over ate for a snack at whole foods trivia night in the bar. I drank 2 fattening beers and ate berry cheese cake. before 8;30pm.
sigh
I work tomorrow and will have a sensible lunch.
Tomorrow night is the first mardi gras parade for the season. We are going to a cook out and then hear a band play at 9pm...pretty late for old farts like us!

I now weigh 180. I have been here before, so I will take this seriously when I remain there. I had 2400 calories. I really need to watch the desserts. I need to eat the food first, and at the end of the day, determine whether I can eat a dessert. I do not want this weight gain to get out of control.
