Geminimik Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Miki's program adjustments. I think in an effort to be compliant, I may be creating my own disaster. I know this about myself and have to watch for it. I do have an eating disorder, not an unmanageable one, but one that needs/or has needed constant monitoring. I am not a meat fan. I have been eating too much meat for my personal well-being. The other thing I suspected is that sweet potato turns on my bingeing (not a word?) gene. So for breakfast I had celery, radishes and an egg white (the yolk dropped out of the eggwhite and sailed across the kitchen floor like there was wind). Low on Calories I realize, at 12:30 - 1:00 (although not hungry - remember I added back in coffee and that is an appetite suppressant, especially if your stomach is empty and there is no sugar or milk to dilute it). I had a salad with two whole eggs, 1/2 avocado, about a thumb of meyer lemon olive oil, tons of broccoli, purple cabbage, celery, onion, grated carrot, salt and lemon pepper. I am very satisfied (1:42, but I am going to have 1/2 of a cantaloupe. I have chicken stirfry at home after my meeting, sadly that may be 9pm. I think for me I will stick to shrimp, bacon (that's not meat is it?), ground chicken & eggs, with lots of veggies and a little fruit (at 2 meals). I will post this on the food critique page and see what they say....I need to find a little more peace in my eating but I do want to be compliant...so Moderators, fire away, I can take it!

Moderators Tom Denham Posted June 11, 2014 Moderators Share Posted June 11, 2014 I think you can figure out what you need to be doing.

GFChris Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Do you like other fish? Seafood? Shellfish? That will at least give you more variety than chicken, eggs and shrimp. Is it the amount of meat, or can you handle meat in small quantities/frequencies? Is it a taste and/or texture thing?When eggs are your protein, the serving size is the number of eggs you can hold in one hand. For most folks, that's at least 3.Make sure you're getting 1-3 cups of veggies per meal. Lunch looked good here: breakfast was light.I'm curious: if you were satisfied after lunch, why have the cantaloupe?Bacon is technically meat, but it's not the best protein source (really more fat).

missmary Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I have been eating too much meat for my personal well-being. What does this mean? Are you having ethical issues? Texture issues? Flavor? Digestion? Help us understand what isn't working and we can help with tweaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geminimik Posted August 11, 2014 Author Share Posted August 11, 2014 LOL...I just noticed these questions...can't give an old girl a computer. I have texture & taste issues. I like tuna with mayo, I like ground chicken, I don't like any reheated meats, but like them fresh cooked. Love grilled shrimp & lobster. I'm just eating a lot of ground chicken right now.
