After reading this thread, it occurred to me that it would be a very good idea to start our own Food & Activity Maintenance Log over here in the maintenance forum. Not only will we be accountable to each other, but it would also be great to see how each of us tackles maintenance, what we actually eat etc.

Plus, it may help others (those losing weight, newbie maintainers, for example) to see how exactly how its done.

I suggest that we either post on a daily basis, or at least once a week. It's entirely up to you.

Obviously the actual posting of logs would only be open to maintainers, though I'm sure we'd be more than happy to answer any questions that might be posted by non-maintainers.

Great idea Demi!!

So....I guess that I'll start with yesterday.

B- 1/2 cup of yogurt, coffee w/H&H and splenda
L- 3 oz chicken breast cut up into a salad of lettuce, grape tomatoes, sugar snap peas, avocado, roast red pepper, blk olives, asparagus w/ balsamic vinagrette spicy dressing
s- fresh cut up fruit, 1 wasa w/ 1 wedge of laughing cow lite
d- 5 steamed shrimp w/ cocktail sauce
5 sea scallops cooked into a very yummy self creation of onion and mushrooms in evoo, garlic crushed red pepper, 2 tbs of Mario Vitali's spicy red sauce from Eataly , and pre- steamed brussel sprouts....it was simply amazing!!!
1 no sugar added klondike bar

LOL Judy, you snuck in while I was putting my own log together!

Good to see you here. I hope it'll prove beneficial.

Well, for simplicity, I've just added a link to my sig box that will take anybody, anywhere to my Fitday information. Very detailed.

Being THAT public will definitely hold me accountable!

Well.....that's putting yourself out there!


Yesterday.....

1st meal:
4oz lox
3 TBS cream cheese with herbs
3 GG crispbreads
fresh tomato with herbs
3 scrambled eggs with H&H and butter

2nd meal:
8oz rare filet
8 oz aparagus with garlic herb oil
5 oz raw spinach sauteed in olive oil and dried chilis
2 oz blackberries
8 oz white wine

Pepper beef jerky

Of course, I could really simplify my breakfast report, because it's the same every day:

Flaxseed muffin with 2 TBS whipped cream cheese
Coffee with cream (limit of 4 TBS cream per day)

I'll be travelling next week (to a conference) so who knows what will befall? They always have a great buffet of healthy stuff, which is why I always enjoy this particular gathering.

Me too.

1 double espresso with 2 TBS H&H.
Breakfast of champions.

Sounds delicious How do you cook the asparagus? Do you cook it first and then drizzle with the oil, or actually cook it in the oil?

B: turkey bacon cheese on a sandwich thin
L: turkey cheese rollup w/mayo veggies
S: Turkey pepperoni stick.. a little too salty
D: beanless chili over 2 beef dogs...salad dressing
possibly cantaloupe

Cook first, then drizzle.

Thanks!
