Hi Weight Mate,
It's Day 2. January 2nd. Today, I spent my day in Paris. With Emily. Today was a chill day of doing pretty much nothing. My wife and I spent our day catching up on TV shows. We caught up on Abbott Elementary, and then binge watched Emily in Paris and finished the latest season.
I did prep some. I made hardboiled eggs in the instant pot. Started with 12, but lost 2 during the cooking process. So 10 eggs are ready for the next few days. I also did other prep - but I prepped lunch and dinner for the kids for tomorrow and Wednesday.
I looked at a few recipes and have some ideas for what I'm going to prep for the week. When I get them under my belt and prepped, I'll let you know what I made!
Also, I wanted to thank everyone for reaching out! So many people have emailed and messaged suggestions about snacks, offering support, and so much more and honestly, it's brought smiles to me and just glad to know that there are others out there.
I'd like to put some ideas out there that Tara sent me. She suggested cheese crisps, a brand called Savoritz. It's 19 chips for 1 carb, 170 calories. She also suggested rotating vegan/vegetarian meals into weekly rotation to make sure you're getting the max veggies. Also, prefilled snacky veggies and fruits into baggies or containers so that way you can just grab and go. Ultimately, she said knowing exactly what's going in home made meals and subbing ingredients give you a better flavor and will be healthier vs buying stuff premade from grocery stores or restaurants.
More people have sent things in and I'll make sure to incorporate them daily, including ingredients, recipes, and so much more.
Thank you all for reaching out. Today was a baby step day, but one forward. Thanks for being my weight mate.
