Good Morning, All.

I had a low carb day yesterday, and I'm hoping I'll be back on plan today and start to get rid of those extra pounds.  I'm going to cook a few meals today.  Anyone have ideas for casseroles with left-over ham?

 

breakfast - salmon

lunch -  ham and sweet potato casserole

lunch2/snack broccoli slaw

dinner - pesto chicken

vitamins - on track

water - ok

exercise - yesterday I did 13,000 steps - whenever I wanted to eat carbs, I took a walk  Lets see how I do today.

 

So what cha eating today?

Nice walking, Carol! 

I'm also on the get back on track goal... I took the box of crackers I had bought and put them out in the public kitchen at work - they were gone in minutes, saving me from myself!  I'm not a big believer of protein shakes, but I'm going to try today and see if I can get off the junk foods

B:  Pure Protein Vanilla - 11oz

L:  Pure Protein Chocolate - 11 oz

D:  going out for Italian : /   some chicken or eggplant 

E:  it's gorgeous here today - already looped the interior of the work building 2x and going to walk, walk, walk to get my head in the game

V:  yes

L:  working on it - so far, so good

Quiche - we love it in our family and you can make it with no crust.  Just spray the bottom of the pan.  cut up the ham, add cooked broccoli and cauliflower and even cooked carrots.  I leave out the cheese, no one even misses it.  

I'm eating today:
B-yogurt 1/2 cup with 1/4 teasp of pure honey
S-Ban and BP
L-egg salad
S-slimfast drink
d-chicken - baked w/ cucumbers
s-bran cereal with almond milk.

Does anyone know how to change the signature?  I need to update mine.  I was sleeved on 02/08/16

I think you change the signature by pulling down "settings" in the gear icon at the top right of this page.  Then there are several tabs.  You choose message board and it brings a box for entering the signature.

I like your idea of making a ham quiche.  I just made a mushroom quiche today, and I bet adding bacon to that would be yummy.

thanks

Carol

Ah, Yes,  I remember the days when I could eat scalloped potatoes and ham.  Sigh.  I wonder if I could do something similar with mashed cauliflower in place of the potatoes.   Hmm.  Interesting idea. 

Thanks

I see that you eat salmon often for breakfast. How are you making/eating it? Are you buying it ready to heat up or ... I'm in the process of the doctor appts for approval and was just curious. I read what people eat daily to have ideas for later. Thanks!
