Meal Ideas

[Stephanie0614 2]

I need some meal ideas. I am stuck and need to break my stall I have fallen back into some old habits but trying to get back. I know eating bread has not helped me. A friend of mine said she cant eat bread but not this girl- my new tummy doesn't seem to mind. One good thing is if I have too much sugar I get sick so that makes me not eat a lot.

I am looking for some ideas. I love yogurt and I tend to eat that often for Breakfast. I got burnt out on eggs a long time ago.

I need to cut my carbs down. Anyone tried intermittent fasting? I am wondering if that would help break this stall.

LOTS of Intermittant Fasting posts here. I find it tremendously helpful. BUt….. you gotta cut the sugar. It is so addictive and will undermine all your efforts. After 3 days you won't have the cravings unless you try a bite. Then it will come storming back. I am gluten intolerant so I do not eat anything with wheat. I cut the sugar before my surgery and I have NO JOINT PAIN and my inflammatory markers are down. Sugar is such a deadly, inflammatory substance. None of us need it, especially those of us who are working toward lifelong health and weight loss. You can do it!

Oh, I also cut out caffeine, and without the sugar and caffeine, my energy levels are so good and consistent throughout the day. No afternoon slump at all. I can't believe the difference.

The biggest impacts for me have been giving up wheat, sugar, caffeine and also doing IF. Powerful, powerful stuff there, if one is willing.

I was using Bariatric Pal food packets to manage this until they hosed me on return of inedible items. Being charged 30% for shipping/handling makes me begin to look elsewhere.
