Alffe, can you eat any fruit on your diet? I love grapefruit, canteloupe and watermelon. Are those high in carbs?

Alffe 04-09-2010 07:59 AM

I miss fruit. 1 watermelon slice (1 1/2" by 6") has 38.4 grams. That's more than half my total of 60 a day.

1/2 grapefruit is 22.2 grams ~sigh

The best one is cantalope 1/2 only has 8.3 grams

The problem is I can't get a good one this time of year in Northern Indiana

When I lose twenty more pounds I'm going on a fruit binge! :D

I know it's early but I just had to weigh as soon as I woke up! :o

Down 2 more pounds!! :D

Alffe 04-10-2010 06:32 AM

Congratulations Kitty!! I'm still in my jamies but have my fingers crossed. :D

Alffe 04-10-2010 08:59 AM

:D I lost one pound! That makes 22 gone..my goal is to lose 18 more and take a look at myself. *grin The problem is wrinkles...didn't know they were there before. :o

Just found out that Bizi is without her computer.

Dinner last night was 1 slice meat loaf, mashed cauliflower (yummy) and carrots cooked in beef broth.

Congratulations, Alffe! Isn't it nice to see that number on the scale get smaller and smaller? :D I'd like to lose about 20 more and I'll be satisfied. I gained so much of mine from the meds I took for a while (Gabapentin is the worst).

I love Cauliflower. I buy it raw and steam it. YUM! Makes the house stink but oh well. :o

Alffe 04-11-2010 03:10 AM

Not fair to have to take medicine that packs on the pounds! It's so easy to gain weight and such a battle to lose it.

I love cauliflower too...and I don't care what the kitchen smells like..:D
I steam it in the micro and then throw it in the foodprocessor with a little milk, sour cream and butter. Salt, pepper...and I think I'm eating mashed potatoes. :D Comfort food...~sigh

Same old breakfast.

How's everybody doing? :)

I'm still plugging along. Have done really good sticking to my eating plan. I haven't really been very hungry the past few days which is nice.

I'm trying not to eat after 6 PM and that's been going pretty well. Last night I ate a bowl of Raisin Bran with fat free milk & a packet of Splenda at about 5:30 PM and that was the last thing I ate. Evening eating has never been my problem. Afternoon eating was my downfall. :o I think I've conquered that.

I almost got on the scales this morning....just out of habit....but I stopped myself before I did. My weight fluctuates so much throughout the week. Once a week is good for me.

Ya'll have a good week! Bizi, I hope you get your computer working soon! :hug:
