Thread: Lovely Losers 2021- MAKING IT in May!

Hi everyone!

Well, last night’s little wild marinated meat dinner was fine. Stayed at 165.4.

Today’s lunch was 2 eggs omelet with pepper, broccoli, and cheese with a green salad with tomato and feta.

Tracy, sorry you need a steak day. Always sucks but such a nice tool. I’d think that steak in any form would work the same. Good luck!

Nice drop, Dubbles! This was my experience also! I kept dropping.

RK, healing wishes for your back!

Phoebe, fantastic round!

Cabbage is bad for me too, unless it's raw in a salad. For some reason, I can eat a lot of veggies raw(tomatoes, broccoli, cauliflower), but once they're cooked even if just steamed and plain with nothing else added, I still gain big. Cooking these foods must change the composition to where my body no longer tolerates them.

I don't have any steak and won't have time to hit the grocery store before 6PM. Anyone ever try a steak day with hamburger? I've got some 80% chillin in the frig...

You've probably already eaten by now, but you can make your burgers juicier and fattier but mixing in some frozen pats of butter as you form your patties. As you cook, they will create nice pockets of fat in your burger that will add to the goodness.

Good luck Charlie, enjoy your birthday celebrations and PI meals!

Thanks for all the steak day tips everyone. I knocked out 2.5 of the egregious overload. Still .5 above the ldw window. Today's plan is hell if I know. Maybe just seafood, I have cod and shrimp. Cooking those in healthy fats along with salads and homemade dressing. I'll try to keep it clean. No cheese, no nuts, no fun.

Tracy, I'd say great job on the 2.5 lb drop! That's a great drop! Mind saying what you did actually eating on your correction day? Doing basically high protein day, fats with dressing, that is not hard day, to me anyway Those kind of days usually help me drop 1 lb. Good luck and good job!

Up early for me, not as bad as Tracy's o'dark thirty, but still about hour early for me. Got DH off for a golf trip, so a few days without someone eating pizza in front of me as I wind down this p2 and eat my chicken or fish portions. Weight this a.m. was .2 above yesterday's. Hardly worth mentioning, and if I slept the extra hour, may've been the same as yesterday. It's ok. I was afraid after dropping 1.8 yesterday, I would have a big uptick this morning, so I'm happy. Just a few more days left till P3. I'm still ok on P2, but look forward to breakfast on P3. Hope everyone has a good, successful weigh-in this a.m. I am going to plant a few lavender plants outside this morning before it get miserably hot, but will check in later.

LOL. I wasn't brave enough to try that... but I like the sound of Linderlou's response!

Dubbles, here's my menu from yesterday. Coffee with half and half, water, inflammation smoothie, around 4:30pm ate approx. 12 oz of hamburger, cooked in pan and rolled up in romaine leaves with some mayo. Finished with a honey crisp apple about the size of my head. I'm still full this am. Like Coco has experienced, beef is taking awhile to digest so I'll keep the menu simple today.
I plan to have another smoothie today and the Epsom bath tonight. I wasn't able to squeeze it in last night.
