The good news - I haven't gained any weight BUT I haven't lost any either this week. The other good news is a friend of mine who works banquets brought me some wonderful leftovers. She brought a bucket of fresh veggies. Plus there were a couple of chicken breasts and lots of green beans.
The bad part I didn't manage the food well. She brought a tub with lots of deli meat. It was lean and I was very careful to only have about 3ou per meal. However I should have put some of it in the freezer. It was mostly ham and I diced it up in omelets. Made sandwiches (on whole wheat with LF ranch). Boiled potatoes and diced it up into them. All good but I think it was too much salt at once.
I have been sticking with mostly chicken breasts and allowing beef or pork/ham every 4th or 5th day. The only splurge is my two slices of bacon every morning for breakfast. I even skipped those and had ham in omelets this past week. I should have wrapped the ham in individual servings and put it in the freezer and meted it out carefully. All that salt probably has me retaining water and I am hoping is the reason for my lack of weight loss this week.
Oh well, I am back on chicken and boiled potatoes today so hopefully the pounds will drop off this week.
Happy Dieting
