I see that many people tell how many oz of meat you eat. Do you REALLY weigh your food or are you giving "guestimations"?

I have started working 10 hour days and discovered that i am a "grazer/snacker'----100 calorie packs are NOT my friend....Chocolate covered almonds--NOT my friend!!!

I went today and bought trail mix and yoguart covered almonds....Don't know how healthy that is--but at least it's fiber!!!

today--

b-choc pb Protein shake

l-camplbell's cup o chili

d-left over chinese food (about 3 tbspoons)

big baby - outside of going out to eat, i do measure/weigh out my food...if i don't i WILL eat more, even when i don't need it.

since your days are busier - might need to plan out your meals; make in advance, if i don't start the day with a good idea of what my meals will be, the tendency to make a poor choice in food is likely in my future.

yesterday -

b- 1/2c kashi oat w/2%milke with half banana

l- 2oz grilled chicken

d- 3 coconut shrimp, glass of chardonay

s- SB chocolate soy nuts

Big Baby, I agree totally with Luluc. I weigh my food as well, because I believe it's important to (1) keep my portion sizes consistent, (2) ensure I get enough Protein in my day, and (3) not overstretch my pouch with too much food, because my eyes are ALWAYS bigger than my stomach! :thumbup:

I also strongly believe in a "food plan" - I pack my lunch box every day (sometimes even on the weekends) with my planned meals, and stick to it. More often than not, I don't even eat everything in my lunch box. ("Lunch Box" is a bit of a misnomer, since it includes my Breakfast and sometimes my dinner also.)

It's a different lifestyle, requiring many changes to personal habits and strategies. But it's worth it!

Hugs,

Donna
