I'm phasing in Decaf Teresa! I'm such a coffee drinker that all that coffee has no discernable effect on me whatsoever. I could eat instant coffee out of the jar with a spoon!

I had cut down to all decaf with only one or two real coffees in a day when I was pregnant, I dont know why I went back to so much caffeine.

C first place to start is do your grocery shopping and prepare your food at home. Dont buy out and on the run, be prepared.

Breakfast is an easy peasy meal to start off the day well. Most people can eat breakfast at home. Wholegrain cereals, fruit and yogurt, a fruit smoothie, if you're doing lo carb, eggs, egg white omelettes, include some mushrooms and tomatoes, go easy on cheese, salt etc.

For Snacks, fruit, dried fruit and nuts, a low fat frozen yogurt, avoid pastries, cakes and the like.

Frozen dinners and the like are junk foods. they're full of preservatives, chemicals, artificial everything. Your body doesnt need them. What about yogurt and fruit, sandwiches (if you can eat bread) or wraps with lean ham and salad fillers, fruit salad, tossed salads with tuna or salmon, a bit of olive oil and vinegar dressing, if you're locarbing, fresh home made stirfries, or a piece of grilled chicken and salad. If you're out and about and cant make your own lunch, take fruit and a Protein shake or something like that.

Your dinner would be fine as long as you didnt eat all the fat on the pork chops.

Ok, so I dont always follow my own advice, but overall I do eat that way and I've still become overweight becuase I just eat too darn much. But I'm healthy and have no cholesterol and blood pressure issues.

Hope that's the help you were looking for and it doesnt sound preachy.

[~c~ 1]

Not at all preachy.I wanted the advice and i thank you for it.I will do better as of today.Sometimes i go off track and it's so hard to get back on.Bad habits DO die hard...

I haven't grocery shopped but will make better last minute choices with what's avail.around me today until i can go to the store...(I LOVE THIS PLACE)

B:Large coffee-2 cream,1 sugar

Multi grain,raisin and almond Cereal w 1% milk.

[Jachut 487]

Good on you. Lots of fresh food and you cant go wrong.

[Teresita 0]

Jacquie you are on the ball. Sometimes we forget that Breakfast is not just eggs anymore. I actually bring my cereal to work (most of the time now). I try not to make fruit my first choice now because the sugar just keeps me eating the rest of the day.

C is see you have lost 60 pounds....WOW....keep up the great work. You are well on your way to goal. Good Luck

Today I did not make a great choice.

Friday
