What meat are you eating?
Chicken tits get expensive after awhile!


I have a huge salad with a can or two of tuna for lunch almost every day
of the week.

At night, Cod, or Salmon, or Shrimp. I am finding my appetite is quickly
dimenishing. Or chicken tits. Last night was diced checken tits with
diced green and red bell peppers cooked in a very hot skillet with about
an 1/8 teaspoon olive oil, and lemon juice and pepper. That and cucumber
wedges.



Ah! More fish!
I prefer canned tuna with lots of mayo which is forbidden. :-(


I didn't eat mayo or ketchup before this. Don't care for either, so no
problem here. Try mustard and cottage cheese.


I'd love to figure out a way to make a GOOD tuna salad sans fat!

Even grilled catfish is too high in fat.
I prolly need to purchase some pollack fillets.

Shrimp is pricey so is reserved for treats. Maybe once per week.
Wish I could afford alligator.


Yeah, but we are actually saving money eating this way. Dunno how, but
we are. Probably the not eating out part.



Chicken tits are my staple right now. Grilled and sliced, served with
various low fat treatments.


Breakfasts were the hard ones for me. In fact I submitted to Cohen
yesterday that "ebh" be a new MFW abbreviation for Egg-beater hate.



Eggbeaters are a PITA.

Eggwhite omelets should work with sufficient flavorings of some sort.
I've not messed with it yet.

Maybe Tuna or shrimp and fat free cheese.


Have done tuna omelets, have done jalepeno, have done ff cheese.
Something about eggs everyday. After about a week the thought of them
makes me want to gag.


And dill, and celery.


This morning I rinsed a can of smoked muscles under hot water and mixed
them into a cup and a half of ff cottage cheese. That was breakfast. I
think that I will smoke some salmon this weekend for next weeks breakfasts.



Salmon is not low fat.


But check to see which fats are in it. Aren't they the good ones?
The book says to eat oily fish. Maybe I am mistaken on this one. I
haven't had any since starting this, only cod, but was looking forward
to it.


I may have to try canned clams, rinsed to get the oil off. Those smoked
cans of stuff are yummy! Check out the canned smoked octopus.


Oh, late night wanting munchies were hard too, but DC suggested celery
as a substitute for chips with salsa. That rocks.



Yeah! I love celery.


On the weekends I pretty much live off protien shakes during the day,
and normal diet dinners. Vanilla with a lot of Cinamon added. That way I
get a break from the foods I am eating all week.



I'm trying to avoid shakes. I don't respond well to Splenda for some
reason.


Hmmm, dunno if I could be doing it without that weekend feeling of
splurging on shakes.




My only real falter so far was a piece of cheese at my mom's last
Sunday. I am an absolute cheese fanatic and she had a sharp/bleu/sharp
wedge that she had bought. I had about and 1/8th of an ounce.



Heh! My weakness is good brie......


Damn you, why would you mention that? I even enjoy a bad one.

I'm not a big ketchup or mustard fan, but I LOVE mayo. :-(
Mustard is more something I cook with than a condiment.

Cottage cheese is wonderful, but I can't lose weight on it.
Don't know why, maybe too many carbs in the form if Lactose?

I eat out maybe once every couple of months or less. ;-)
I think it's just because I'm eating LESS.

I know what you mean.
Without the yolks, what's the point?
That's where all the flavor is!

That is a good point actually.
Just watch your serving size.

I don't have that big of a sweet tooth.
Not for many years.

You started it. ;-)
You said "cheese". lol

Me too! For a couple of days now I've been eating cucumber, green
onion, tomato and cheese in a little salad (that's all I've had time (or
room -- the kitchen is still mostly boxed up) to prepare as far as
veggies go) with a couple of tablespoons of mayo -- heavenly! Normally
I would only have 1 tbl, but my calories have been pretty low with my
hectic moving situation, so I'm actually trying to keep my calories UP.

For so many, MANY years I've kept my mayo use to a minimum because of
all the fat hype, and it wasn't particularly special to me, anyway.
HOWEVER, after starting low-carb and having it one day with asparagus
(the ONLY way to eat asparagus as far as *I'M* concerned, I realized how
much I really LIKE mayo -- it has a GREAT taste and reminds me of when I
was a kid when I used mayo with abandon and nary a thought as to whether
or not it would be fattening :-) Now, as with so MANY things I eat, I
have a true appreciation for it that I no longer take for granted. I
like it better than regular salad dressing. Actually, I like a lot of
things better than traditional salad dressing -- for instance, I like to
use alfredo sauce instead.

Normally, I don't worry about fat and have lost weight on a high fat
diet... but things have REALLY slowed down for me and it's frustrating!

So I/we are trying a low calorie, low fat modified protein fast.

It's more of a challenge, but easier than a fat fast! More food. ;-)

Yeah, they will do that to you. I bet they were good, though.
