New Meal - High Fiber / Good Protein (3/2)

This morning I had a Wrap for breakfast.  I need to go food shopping and had to make due with the food I had in the house.  This was my mmm meal:

Mission Fiber Burrito Wrap (0/2) + 21g Fiber + 8g Protein

Chicken Salad - Mayo and Chicken

Baby Spinach

Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese

And my Probiotic pill.

Also 24-oz of water sipped slowly during the meal and after.

Since I had the sugars to spare, I had my VitaCraves multivit (3/0).

By the way, last night I was craving cheesecake but instead had some cream cheese on a celery stick.  It satisfied the cheese and the crunch and was decent replacement.

ThinkThin Protein Bags

Has anyone tried these?


A friend recommended them and they are in line with the "Protein Priority" but are a 0/2 for a full bar with 20g of Protein.

My Priority is Protein

Listening to the class today I figured I'd take notes here to help me review...

Tips for eating out:

• Make PROTEIN and healthy fats the PRIORITY.
• Skip the bun / Skip the sauces -- I can do that!
• Make smart beverage choices (Water)
• Avoid fruit-based sauces
• Skip the fruit
• Realize you are in control - make smart substitutions and don't be afraid to ask.

Bring your own snacks for travel:

• Walnuts / Cheese / Hard-boiled Egg

Night Snack:

• Cucumber - to satisfy the need for Crunch

Losing inches but not lbs?

I am noticing that my waist is shrinking but I am not losing much weight. I lost 10 lbs in the 1st 2 weeks but then minimal 0-1 then next few weeks. However, I am not entirely discouraged because my waist is shrinking (down 2 inches off my belly). People are noticing and that is exciting to talk about the diet.

I am hitting the high fiber mark daily and taking a probiotic, and having a big salad almost daily which helps I think. I am struggling to drink the water. It was suggested I sip thru out the day instead of guzzle it but I find that hard to do.

Down a Pant Size - Woo Hoo

This morning I decided to try on an older pair of pants as my jeans have been loose lately.  They fit well, not even tight.  Woo Hoo.  I am not noticing a weight loss (from the scale) but this shows that at least I'm losing inches.  I haven't fit into these in over 2 years.  WooHoo.
