Today's menu

[SoldiersWife]

Okay so I have been on atkins for a week now (Lost 7lbs!). I just wanted someone to review my menu just to make sure I am on track.

Breakfast
-Hard boiled egg
-2 cups coffee w/ 2 splendas
I usually will eat something else for breakfast but I just wasn't feeling too hungry this morning.

Lunch
2 eggs
1.5 oz cheese
2 sausage

Dinner
Shredded chicken (Made with taco seasoning and chicken broth in the crockpot)
1.5 oz cheese
1 cup brocolli

Snacks
1 egg
celery w/ ranch
and now I am having 3 slices of bacon.

And of course lots of water. Once I finish this 32oz bottle it will be 128oz

Re: Today's menu

So any news about when your husband comes home?
Congratulations on your losses. That is a nice start.

I think the most important thing that you may look into improving is your vegetables. They are really good for you and Atkins wanted us to eat around 3 cups every day. 2 cups coming from that list called salad vegetables in the book. It does not look like you are quite doing that. So keep giving yourself good nutrients and embrace the world of healthy veggies.

Otherwise it was fine. I think perhaps some variation would be helpful. You do not eat this everyday right? You have other meats and fish and other veggies too. Variation helps a lot of get more nutrients and to stick to the diet in the long run because we learn about all the possibilites.

Really good job on that water. !!!!

He should be home late september! I'm getting pretty excited!! Haven't seen my hub since January.

No, I don't eat this everyday. I usually do get in more veggies but I just wasn't feelin' it yesterday. This morning I went out and bought abunch of veggies so I hope to get more in today.
