I bought some new items to add to my menu. One Bun multi grain bread which is 100 calories. Great because all I need is half of one to go with my lunch salads. (need my carbs :)I also bought flavored weight control oatmeal and just tried it, it's yummy! (sorry for the french side of the pic, just noticed that!
I also read that protein is a must when eating salads. So far my salads consist of Romaine lettuce, cucumbers, chickpeas and now adding 1 egg, with balsamic vinegar. Yummy!I also make sure to eat every 3 hours to keep my metabolism going but to also be sure I'm not starving, not good when starving.... starving will make it easy to eat anything in site! So I don't want to do that to me!
This weeks menu
Breakfast:
Smoothies or Oatmeal
1 Coffee
Lunch:
Salads (veggies and protein)
with half of a One Bun.
Snacks: Fruit/carrots/any 100 cal snacks.
Dinner:
Since I have been usually eating out for dinner, I need to be more aware of my choices and choose the healthier choice! Fingers crossed for a good week!
My goal calorie intake this week is 1500/day.
plus 2 workouts this week.
and so far Monday was perfect! :)
We are also planning a trip soon. However, I put in my passport renewal too late! So we are not sure if our trip will be in the USA or we might just travel within Canada. We'll make our decision by Wednesday.
Hope you all had a great week!
Oh, I stayed on track today too!!!!! I need to drop some weight and I have to be serious about it, which I have had a slight problem with the seriousness!!!
ReplyDeleteI need to update my passport too. Not that I have an out of the country trip planned, but you just never know.
Trip planning is the best. I hope you guys go somewhere awesome.

thanks for sharing your plan tania, it helped me get more motivated!! i've been so out of it! i'm going to do the same as you... smoothies and salads. i got the smoothie part down fine, been having a hard time with the salads. do you like apples with peanut butter? i read today in my glamour magazine that it makes a perfect snack w/ protein and healthy carbs.
ReplyDeleteI love that oatmeal - have been eating it since I had the gallbladder removed. I adore the maple and brown sugar - how about you?
ReplyDeletehaha, Tania sorry for the french side of the pic lol that's too funny
