I did have some bread two days ago because I ate a ham burger, and a cheese burger. BF:hug::hug::hug:


Dear BF,

Yeast and bread are fine for most people.:):):)
My sister's husband cuts out bread when he wants to lose weight
because it is the easiest thing to cut -- not because bread has hugely important
properties.

(I know this because I used to make yeast bread and it can be good for some people.)

If they do not cut out bread, they can reduce the amounts of it and/or reduce
the amount of something else.

You are doing very well. Stick to your own plan.

A person loses weight by eating LESS. The type of food does not matter.

You could loose weight eating Twinkies like this person as long as you
are eating LESS

Reducing the amount of food is even more important than exercise:

3 cups of coffee with 1/2&1/2 and stevia
Organic spinach kebbeh, quinoa and spinach and onions and
potatoes and almonds(casserole)
Boiled Beets and chard.
Pork chop and steamed asparagus.
one 8% IPA beer.

I know that I am not as hypo as I have been...because I can limit my alcohol.
whew!

I have a problem with coffee also. I drink some rarely, when I've had to get up before Sunrise.

I am eating less dessert. I'm eating lean cuisine, and almonds. Almonds can be expensive. Then I have three cookies.

I eat a couple of slices of meat, and some cheese during today. Not to much.
I've been snacking a little here, and there.

I eat crackers.

If I eat like a regular person, I would gain all kinds of weight. BF:hug::hug::hug:

and some carbs, balance and not depriving our selves

It seems like the Almonds have a laxative affect, and keeps me regular. That is really helping me to not gain weight me believe. I'm not sure, but I think it's the almonds. I've eaten lots of them. BF:hug::hug::hug:

Dmom3005 08-04-2017 01:14 PM

I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't the almonds too.

I've been eating honey roasted nuts, and I love cashews but I don't buy
often. But I eat moderately.

I am also eating lots of fiber cereals, bagels with peanut butter and jelly,
or cream cheese. I love aunt Millie's potato bread, and try to eat mostly
that. I have been on a peanut butter kick and banana's. Have to get
more bananas to keep eating that.

I love lean cuisine meals, especially the lasagna,.

Had a delicious seafood salad at Pats last night.
crab,boiled shrimp and crawfish and tomatoes with ranch dressing.
ate late because I was there late and did not order till late. then came home on the interstate. Which had stop and go traffic because they are working on the hwy. Sigh so I did not get home until 9:30pm
I am glad that I ate there. But I will ensure that we order my salad ealier next time. My next appointment is late again...sigh I will try to get there earlier to avoild the lane closure next month. May or may not work out.
When I came home I had one beer. And it was good. I know my bipolar is much better since I am able to cut it off after one beer. :)

171.7...so fluctuation.....which is to be expected!

I should not weigh myself every day. But want to keep track and here is the easiest place...Forgive me if this is annoying to you.
Now I must get ready for work.

Have a good day Yall!
