Yesterday I ended up going out to lunch, which made me nervous at first. We went to Red Robin, known for their big fat greasy burgers, and I was even more nervous that I wouldn't find anything I could eat. But then I spotted my lunch on the menu--Apple Chicken Salad. I'm allergic to nuts so I cut out the candied walnuts and the blue cheese (not allowed on this diet), had my vinaigrette on the side, and ate the entire petite serving without guilt. It had my fruit (apple, tho not an entire serving), my veggie (salad), and my protein (chicken) all in one! And it was good. I indulged and I loved it. AND I STILL LOST!
Breakfast (0 calories)
Tea & Coffee
Snack (97.5 calories)
Apple - 6.5oz at 15 cals per oz (I put the apple in a baggie and shake it with cinnamon and stevia - holy crap, is that good!) <--I can't get enough of this snack!
Lunch (209 calories)
Shrimp - 5.3oz at 30 cals per oz
Tomatoes - 10oz at 5 cals per oz
Dinner (189 calories)
Beef - 3oz at 53 cals per oz (ouch! I had no idea beef was so high in cals!)
Celery - 7.5oz at 4cals per oz
Snack (0 calories)
no snack since my apple is so big.
Weight Loss: 2.0!
Total Weight Loss: 12.0 pounds!!!
Tip of the Day: When you cook meat high in fat (like beef), cook it in water in the slow cooker. Once it's done, place it in the fridge until all the fat rises to the top and hardens. Then you can pull it off and have low fat meat!
So that is a total of 12 pounds in 6 days! I didn't take in enough calories yesterday so I'll do better today. I plan to take in a bit more since today is my cleaning day and I workout cleaning the house.
