Daily Menu Thread, Sat 11/17

Great ideas keep showing up on these threads!!! Thanks everyone!

Post your menus here! Enter either what you ate yesterday or what you plan to eat today. Please let's give newbies and oldbies some good "food for thought" and ideas.

HELP THE CAUSE!!!!Don't keep your good ideas to yourself!

me:

Yesterday I did not feel well and did not eat for the middle part of the day. And I had "comfort foods" though they were low carb.
I didn't eat meat because my stomach simply wasn't up to par.


Meal One: LoCarb pancake made with 3/4 scoop of Carbolite Zero Carb bake mix and 1/4 scoop Atkins pancake and waffle mix topped with Carbolite zero carb pancake syrup

Meal Two: Flax O Meal - high fiber, low carb cereal with Splenda, butter and dash of cream.

Meal Three: 1 piece of Atkins rye bread (I bought a duet from the Atkins Center a few weeks ago but keep in the freezer and use very sparingly) with a soft boiled egg (thanks for the directions from AskJeeves!)

Plan: Schwarzbein

Breakfast: 2 scrambled eggs, 1/2 cup oatmeal with butter and cream

Snack: 2 tbl peanut butter and celery sticks

Lunch: roast beef and provolone cheese roll ups, small apple

planned for rest of day:

Snack: mozarella cheese and a tangerine

Diinner: leftover crockpot beef (very juicy ), green beans and butter, carrots with butter and parmesan cheese.

so essjay, how did those eggs turn out?

6:30pm 2 chuncks sirloin tips cut into small pieces after cooked then stirred into a box of Green Giant broccoli & cheese

Ok, this is my first participation in this thread because quite frankly this is the first time I've had anything interesting to contribute:

Cauliflied rice. YUM! (You were right Karen) Made it tonight and we had half the batch with some bbqed chicken. I also experimented with a baked cheesecake that turned out quite good. Had some of that too. Ate some top sirloin throughout the day as well. Was not the greatest calorie wise, but it *is* my free day and this is how I wanted to spend it; no planning and totally unstructured. Eating 6 meals a day takes work!

Faith,

My 6 meals per day comes from BFL and I find that it is more work but i stay so even throughout the day I don't think I could do 3 meals a day again. I have been eating six a day since March.
I'm starting CKD on Monday and he (Lyle McDonald) recommends six as well. I also read an antiaging diet in one of the senior magazines last year and it recommended six a day to keep the fire stoked and less stress on the vital organs when you suddenly make it gear up for huge digestion 3 times a day. Doing six keeps everything humming.

more work but worth it!!
