Fat Buster

Foodies can lose weight too!

still smurf-like, but less so

So, yeah, thanks for the great comments on my smurfy-ness.  My fingernails are blue today. (WTH?)  Our sheets have been washed and dried and I have tried scrubbing, many times.  Next step, nail polish remover!  Oy!  But being a smurf-ette (why was there only one girl smurf? Does that seem weird to anyone else?) agrees with my weight loss.  Down again!  Yay!

 

Breakfast was the same ole Mix 1

and grapes

lunch was leftover Egyptian Spiced Chicken.  A pretty tasty recipe that really sticks to your ribs!

and Ezekiel muffin.

Dinner was Dan’s Devil’s Chicken (spicy chicken)  a nice staple he can throw together when we don’t have any other ideas.  I decided to add a few things to it to make dinner a little bigger.

I decided to boil the pierogies this time.  MUCH better, this is what I was thinking I would get the other day. yum.

And I steamed some broccoli in the steamer bags.

food 029

So fresh and so good!  But I was low on my fiber requirement and so for dessert I had All bran bran buds, Just Blueberries and nonfat milk

food 039

This was actually a small portion (1/4 c of milk and of the bran buds).  I still have calories left so I may have another sweet treat later :)

 

What is your favorite way to get your fiber in?  I try for at least 25g a day, what’s your goal?

Aww thanks Amos! One day I want to do this professionally. alas. I think it's a crowded field. Ohh I do need to get back into green monsters....thanks!

I think chia seeds are supposed to be a good source of fiber. :) I try to get mine from fresh fruits and veggies, but I don't typically count my fiber intake. I find I can only focus on 1 thing at a time or I get all confused, so lately I've been doing calories and calcium. :) Hopefully I will work my way to counting fiber soon!

Ditto the above on the awesome food pics that you take. I have to hypnotize myself that I'm "not hungry" when I scroll through your pics :P

I don't count anything with regards to food intake, but I try to eat lots of fruit and veggies, and I eat flaxseed muffins in the morning. Good stuff. I do love your photos, too. So detailed.

Your photos are wonderful! The broccoli one left me wanting some tonight for dinner!

I don't officially keep track of what I eat, but just have an informal checklist in my head!

So glad you are less smurf like, but its not a bad thing being the only female smurf in the land. You get your fair choice of the men! lol

:)I eat lost of fresh fruits and veggies to get in fiber.I also love the orowheat double fiber muffins for breakfast.

I aim for 30g a day of fiber and get them from fruits and veggies with a little help from my double fiber whole wheat bread from Costco. Gotta love Costco!
