12 Weeks and 8" later

  • @ Jess lol

    We have the rest of our lives to perfect this....do your best and forget the rest!

  • Patty! It's official then since we're practically neighbors your my go to chic!!! I'm still totally amazed at your results.

    I was away at conference this past week so as hard as I tried to stay on diet... I did the best I could. Crappy part is I can't control what the kitchen put in the food (as much as I try to). Just like to get some thoughts on my meal plan for the past few days....I did pack snacks for the conference that included enough to feed me there and back for the two days. Unfortunately, I didn't plan my meals out extensively because I didnt know what to expect. They didnt have a fridge in the room which I should've called ahead to find out so a few of my snacks spoiled. I did however bring back enough protein bars since everything else went bad. The crappy part is I ate like 2 a day!

    Also... I've only been doing 5 meals a day... I'm basically trying to accomplish what Emily Alvers did as well as Margie F. who both only ate 5 meals a day.

    Here are my meals...

    Day 1:

    Meal 1:  Egg Whites, Wheat Toast

    Meal 2:  4 Homemade Whey Almond Butter Cookies

    Meal 3:  2 Plain Wendy Jr Burger with only ketchup

    Meal 4:  4 Homemade Whey Almond Butter Cookies

    Meal 5:  Made by the Hotel: Tuna Melt; No Cheese, Not Toasted. However there was a lot of oil on it and had that black thick creamy balsamic dressing stuff that was really sweet. I only ate a little less than 1/2 of this because I worried about the preparation and oil and dressing.

    Day 2:

    Meal 1:  Yogurt- It was this or Bread. The breakfast buffet SUCKED! Lol.

    Meal 2:  Protein Bar

    Meal 3:  Salad with Balsamic Dressing- 1 Tablespoon

                 1 oz of Chicken with 4 Asparagus spears with OIl.... This hotel LOVES to cook with Olive oil.

                 2 oz of Salmon

    Meal 4:  Protein Bar

    Meal 5:  Greek Salad with 1 tablespoon of oil dressing and Feta

                 Gyro- All the fixins (cucumber sauce, feta, tomato, onion.)

    Day 3:

    Meal 1:  Protein Bar, Found out they had real breakfast food! I had a little bit of scrambled eggs prob less then a 1/4 cup and one piece of bacon.

    Meal 2:  Granola Bar

    Meal 3:  Two Fresco Soft Tacos, Taco Bell

    Meal 4:  Myoplex Bar

    Meal 5:  Miso Soup, Edamame, California Roll, Crazy Roll (Spicy tuna, avocado, this weird crunchy stuff, eel filet, and eel sauce.

    Let me know what you guys think... Should i use my free day as a normal weekday or as a free day. I'm so unsure because I'm so unsure about my past meals being on the approved list. Like I said I tried as hard as I possibly could to keep it as close as possible. I also did NOT miss a work out! :)

  • Bump.  

    Keep going, Patty.
