It's another Saturday which means it's another weigh in. Not bad. I lost another 1.8 pounds. That makes it I've lost 22.2 pounds since May 5th.
I've branched out on my eating so it will probably slow down now. Also when I start to exercise and when I start to tone up, I've been tone that the weight will slow down or stop for a bit because muscle weighs more. Who knows. Me gaining muscle instead of fat is a weird concept so we'll see.
Some things that I want to make this week are:
Cheese crisps = take cheese slices about 1/4" thick and microwave them to melt and crisp up. The recipe says that it is good as a dipper and they used dried dill and chives on a dollop of sour cream.
Chocolate dessert = take around 40-80 g of Dark Chocolate (as dark as you can enjoy) and one egg. Less chocolate will create a lighter cakier texture, more will create a denser brownie like texture. Basically melt chocolate in a mug using your microwave. Beat egg into the melted chocolate and microwave again 30 seconds at a time. Usually takes around 1.5 minutes. tip on plate and eat after it cools a bit.
cream cheese pancakes
crepes - using ricotta cheese, eggs, artificial sweetener, salt and butter. Only .8 carb per crepe.
Mocha Latte clouds = butter, cream cheese, 2 tsp instant coffee crystals, unsweetened cocoa powder, vanilla extract, artificial sweetener
I also bought Atkins Advantage Snack/light meal bars. Coconut Almond Delight Bar. 2 net carbs for it and I hope to have this as a snack. Working 10 hour days tends to throw off the schedule of eating. I sometimes forget to pack something either for lunch or snack for office. I'll probably keep them at work for when I need something to carry me until I get home.
I'm also trying Detox water today. It has fresh lemon, cucumber, ginger and mint leaves. It's steeping right now so I'll report on how it tastes. I don't mind lime in my water so we'll see how it goes.
That's all to report right now.
Until next time .....Have a good day.
