How are you doing on the weight loss front?

After dinner last night I had to admit to myself that although I ate my salad without dressing, having sauteed shrimp and fettucine alfredo was probably not the best diet meal. (!) :?

I dont know....

I think once a week, twice a week, you should eat a decent meal like that.....

Then ya just maintain healthy eating for the rest of your meals....

One decent meal a week isnt gonna hurt you.....

Just my humble opinion.....

this was so fucking delicious, it was unbelievable.
also had lots of crushed red pepper in it....ooohhhhhhhhhh sooooooooooo good!

and yes, still on track, holding steady today, 6 pounds down. i'm happy. i really think if i can keep losing weight eating as i do, this is most definitely something sustainable for me. :thumbup: eventually would like to incorporate more exercise, tho nothing too crazy and then also be able to eat a bit more on the naughty side say once a week, and sure...a bottle of my beloved wine a week.


justam - outside of the alfredo sauce, sounds like a perfectly good and healthy meal! and even the alfredo isn't going to kill ya. it's all portion control and frequency. i had 2 slices of margherita pizza for lunch today - planned - and will do so for the next 10 weeks on fridays. i think planned indulgences are wise. if you find it hinders your progress, then you make adjustments accordingly. if it merely slows the pace, no biggie....b/c that's reality, right? no one is going to eat in a truly restrictive fashion for life, so it's all about sustainable change to accompany a sustainable, smaller self. 8-)

Ah yes...

Sunday breakfasts...

Eggs
Bacon
Sausage
Pancakes
Hash Browns

But I guess I will have a bowl of Special K instead.......hehehehehe

I had a bowl of popcorn last night...
A Big bowl of popcorn.....
With butter
And salt....

And it was delicious....

Good for me!!!!!
