Deb, not that i am saying have a burger.. but .. if its a must have.. and sometimes it is .. I will have a kids burger.. no cheese and sometimes i take the top bun off.. with a salad.. cant do it all the time but.. its makes me feel like I have had a burger.. and havent blown the calories out of the water.. some of my friends say.. why bother.. lol .. as they sit eating their big macs.. but I am usually full afterwards anyways. so thats what works for me haha!!
I still have my bread but only fours servings of bread or starches a day. I eat alot of fruit/veggies. Right now I am just trying to eat all the fruits and veggies up before we leave on sunday. I know my kids won't eat them while I am gone and so they will go to waste. Might end up dropping weight just trying to finish off...........about 3 lbs oranges and apples, 3 cumcumber, stawberries, pea pods, lettuce, celery and my yogurts. Between you and me Deb I have been thinking of those greasy mexican burgers and cannot wait to absolutly devour one among other things. I am still gonna do my best to keep the weight down even in Cancun
My beautiful wife follows this method. Sorry for stepping in, I have been observing this thread for awhile but have not responded. For her, watching her weight is a lifestyle, she does it every day and every meal. If she goes to Wendy's at lunch, for example, she'll get a chicken burger, no sauce, no cheese and she removes the top bun, and never gets it with fries. She will have the ocassional salad at Wendy's, but again no ranch dressing or anything, once in a while, oil and vinegar. I make her breakfast before work every day. Two or three days a week she will have a slim fast as her breakfast. When I make her an egg, quite often it is with egg whites, other times it is a mixture of egg whites, milk and an egg. She will have it cooked in the microwave, rarely is it fried. When we do fry stuff, it is always with olive oil. She prefers chicken over beef, barbequed or baked over fried. Not to brag about her, and apologies in advance if it sounds like that, she is one super fine lady. I wish I had her will power. I am the overweight, balding, middle-aged guy. Anyways, hope this came out right, carry on with your thread, good luck on your diet's and I hope you all enjoy your upcoming vacations. Thanks
I've never gained weight in Cancun, we seem to get alot more exercise while were there, alot more walking, dancing, swimming and well you know other stuff...LOL Plus I think we eat better, we love fish and its so expensive here so we get our fill while there.
It came out just fine.. thanks no worries.. feel free to hop on here any time thats what it for .. lots of us battle this every day.. so any info is concidered helpful.. thanks!
