All this running around for Yom Tov is getting pretty intense! Well at least I got most of the baking done yesterday. Today I am making all of the proteins and tomorrow is all of the veggies. Lots and Lots and Lots of veggies!
This is my strategy for dealing with all the meals:
Step 1- Eat at home so I know exactly how everything is made
Step 2- Cut the sugar in half in every recipe! (except Challah)
Step 3- Substitute half the oil for applesauce (except Challah)
Step 4- Have one plain steamed vegetable at every meal and fill half the plate with it. it could also be a green salad with no added nick-knacks (ie Flat bread, croutons, sun-dried tomatoes, avocado, or anything else thats not HoAdoma) and a fat free dressing
Step 5- Pick one treat a day, so if I really want some honey cake I can eat it. That's why I made myself Ice cream.
Anyways, that's the plan. Im going to weigh in today since I wont have the time tomorrow and I can't on Thursday. Ill let you all know how I did! I have really been to busy to eat, so I have been under my points almost everyday, but on the other hand I'm all bloated.... we shall see!
Why no avocado? Are you staying away from white flour stuff?

im following weight watchers. avocado has a lot of points, and so do the "white thing". i was talking about 0 point veggies in that part. i can eat anything on this plan as long as i have the points for it
ReplyDeleteAvocado is very fattening.
