I tried very hard today to get my calories and carbs more in line with phase 2 and feel like I did it. I tried a new desert as well although I'm not sure I should have. I could only eat a little bit and felt overfilled afterward. I am sitting around again doing nothing physically since I just can't seem to find a good time to get my bike tire fixed. I am pretty sure I will have a slowdown or halt to my weight loss until I get back sweating again. I tried to get some veggies into my breakfast this morning as well which was easy to do. Not much else happening so this will be brief today.
Day 34 meals:
Breakfast - 2 eggs scrambled, 2 pieces of bacon
Lunch - Chicken salad with tomatoes and ranch dressing
Dinner - BBQ Pork Country ribs with low carb bbq sauce
Snacks - AM - Atkins strawberry shake, PM - Low Carb chocolate mud cake with Almond breeze milk
Total counts for day 34, 24.9g Carbs, 1,985 Calories, 114g fat, 121g protein
I threw some country style ribs and low carb bbq sauce in the slow cooker for 4 hours and all I can say is, it was a winner. This meal was perhaps the best I've had since starting to low carb again. The ribs were so tender I couldn't get them out of the slow cooker. I then mashed up some cauliflower just to take it to the next level. Very yummy stuff. This is the recipe for the low carb bbq sauce:
2 tablespoons butter
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup low-carb ketchup (I like Heinz 1-Carb brand)
1⁄3 cup Splenda granular
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 tablespoon liquid smoke
1⁄2 teaspoon salt
1⁄2 teaspoon pepper
Put all ingredients in a sauce pan and let simmer for 20 minutes
Look at the picture below, does this look like diet food?
