Re: Tuesday Menu and Wednesday's so far

[Guest guest]

Kim... this is not criticism but rather my input. Please don't take it wrong

Over all the menu looks good but be careful with a few things...

1 - the bacon bits on salad bars are notorious for not being "real bacon" and being very high in sodium. They might prove no problem whatsoever for you but just in case keep it in mind. I'm guilty of having them on the salad bar too once in a while... shhhh... that'll be our lil secret too, ok?

2 - the sugar free popsicle has carbs (how many depends on the brand). I have a whole box of them in my freezer (taking up space for OVER 15 months now) that I won't eat because of the ingredients... but for some reason I won't throw them out since they're perfectly good food and one day I'll eat them! LoL

3 - the diet Mountain Dew (if it's anything like regular mtn dew) is loaded with caffeine... problematic if caffeine inhibits your weight loss, it's a YMMV thang ;-)

Just (low-carb) food for thought. I could be completely off on everything I've said as it's all YMMV on these things I mention.

Marlena,

Yes you are right. Many people are different. YMMV kind of thing. I

have lost 70lbs since January eating everything I do now. I also

drink Decaffeinated drinks (sorry didn't mention that on my earlier

post). Everyone is different. I also bought two difference type of

Sugar Free popsicle from Walmart. I eat the Popsicle brand which

only has 3 carbs versus another brand who has 11 and I haven't

touched those since I bought them. I can be very picky about these

things at times but I haven't had any problems with the bacon. Its

strange how people's bodies react differently.

Hi Debbie,

Try a salad dressing of 2 parts canola oil and 1 part apple cider

vinegar.

That's what my naturopath had me on.
