Day One & Two of My 100 Day Challenge
Posted February 14, 2017
on:Today, went pretty well despite my not having done any grocery shopping or meal prep,
which of course is vitally important to long term success.
I just didn’t want to wait one more day, so making it work with
what I had on hand, since yesterday we spent all day at the bowling alley
with our son for his travel league .
Yogurt , Peanut butter and honey dip, yumm!
Honey and Peanut Butter are not on the Simply Filling list of foods ,
but on worries as you are allowed a small amount of points per day of other foods.
In reading posts on a Facebook group following this method,
some people who gave up trying to find 1g sugar cereal just use that as
part of their 7 pts per day. I used a banana with this dip for breakfast , along with
two cups of green tea with Truvia. Note today was a very unusual day as I woke up due to DH snoring at 5:30am then went back to bed at 7:30 until 11:30 , so this would definitely hold me til lunch, but not typically.
I hard boiled up a bunch of eggs, so day 2 I had those with mandarin oranges.
For the next few days, I will vary the fruit, with apples. peaches and pineapple .
Lunch was a large salad with some leftover Misson BBQ turkey that my husband
had leftover from his dinner and I had enough to use the turkey for both days. I did fat free cheese on both days, day one cheddar, day two feta, pictured here. I may bore you, but salads are going
to be my go to lunches, one meal to not think about it really helps me.
Day 1 I tried Mission White Corn tortillas as they are Simply Filling approved,
however I didn’t like how strong the corn taste was, so just scraped and ate with a fork.
This is lettuce, steak strips, mushrooms & onions with sharp cheddar and fat free sour creme.
I think I used too much cheese and should have used half this amount…
Note: I intended to use lettuce wraps , but Kroger was out when i ran to get some, since I didn’t like
the strong corn flavor in the future I will use the Mission Carb balance tortillas.
Day 2 dinner was more of the steak strips with mushrooms and let me tell you,
there is a alot more mushrooms on the plate than beef, cause I can’t get enough mushrooms ever!!!
I grilled zucchini and used spray butter.
I also had an orange on day one as a snack and a banana on day two.
Dear Readers, It feels great to be back in control after 3 months of this mourning and
just not caring. I didn’t do full workouts , yet as I am sick with sore throat and sinus stuff,
but I did jump rope for a few minutes, did twist on the Simply Fit board, planked and did
mountain climbers (video below). Doing bursts of exercise throughout the day is just as effective.

Hi! I am going to try and follow the meals like you are doing. My downfall is my fiancé always wants to eat out and that is so many calories. How do you like the simply fit board?

Sound like a great start, Tracey!!
We have Cheerios most mornings, and I think they are only 1 g of sugar? I could be wrong?

I do think Cheerios are Simply Filling approved. I am aiming for high protein and low carb right now to detox from the carb craze I have been in lately… I can add bread and whole grain pasta, brown rice or quinoa later and will do so.
