Interesting fact: till I was about 18 I always thought it was Valentimes Day haha.

Our 6-year-old says it like that
Sorry

Happy Valentines day!
I treated myself to pizza, ben and jerrys and a block of chocolate.
Yes, I eat my feelings.
All of them

I am just hoping my man doesn't but me anything of the chocolate nature wheb he is out on his travels this morning. If he does it will be game over.

[phoenix4444]

Don't want to flood this thread with my photos, but I will share one shot of what I baked tonight.
All by myself.
Dude, this was the juiciest thing ever.
Finger-licking good.

I put more photos and info on my daily log, if you want to take a look.
Or not...

That looks freakin good!!!!

[NoCarbsNoSugar]

Slow drive

[IK9]

I hope this helps some of you. Lately I have been doing the following..

10:45 PM - Wake up drink 28 ounces of water & have black coffee w/ hazelnut creamer/Splenda

Get to work by Midnight

12:30 AM - 1 gala apple

3 AM - 6 oz chicken breast, romaine lettuce w/ 2 TBSP FF dressing

7 AM - 1 gala apple

8 AM - Get off work to go lift

Misc: I work in valet parking & so I am pretty active.. those 2 apples, the 6 oz chicken w/ salad keeps me full for 8+ hours.. & it is very little calories.. just some food for thought

I was doing Fiber One bars instead of apples for a while but apples takes care of some micros for the day.. both work for me tho

Slow drive

I've never ever seen or experienced snow. Not sure if its a blessing or a curse

It's a little bit of both I guess.
It is mostly beautiful though

[NoCarbsNoSugar]

Maria... It's funny you just said that... My kids are watching "Snow Dogs" tonight, as I am shoveling the fresh snow on the sidewalk. You should watch that movie if you haven't already

Yes, I think so. Always wanted to see snow fall. When we went to New Zealand last year, we found a week old snow still melting away. That was the closest I ever got

He bought sweet potato fries instead. He must of known.

No she cannot.
And that's ok.

You are so right.

I will have a little dark chocolate I have stashed here at work if I can fit it in today.

[NoCarbsNoSugar]

Dark chocolate is my wife's favorite.
Supposed to be healthier for ya', too, no?

A bit more of the good stuff as opposed to its sugar ladden little sister, tastes better too.

[cherrygarcia80]

Ah, Sweet potato fries, I started making those just before I started keto, they used to be so damn good!

Manic monday is here, it's always such a struggle making it to the gym on mondays sigh!

[phoenix4444]

Had a big plate of those fries too.

Monday is the day to take stock of the rest of the week, mentally prepare and get after it. Think of lifting as putting yourself on the right path.

So excited to watch the new episode of the walking dead!
Loading it up on my phone and spinning while watching it!

[IK9]

^ I need some new shows to watch on Netflix
^ Love fries but too lazy to bake lmao

So this meal is keeping me super full for a long time.. I used to cook my proats but now I just eat it raw

Take 1/2 cup of oatmeal (40g) & add in 1/2 scoop whey proton & mix in a drop of water.. mix & eat

The best thing is.. it keeps you full/satiety & is only about 200 calories!

I'm sure this is not new but I will make proats a staple since I'm cutting

I wanna try making strawberry banana flavored proats or something different than my usual chocolate

[tara19]

^ you can pry the proats out of my dead hands

[IK9]

^ you can pry the proats out of my dead hands

Wait, does that mean you like them or hate them? Lmao

Hit the weights hard today. Feels so good to get that righteous pump going.

Celebrating my victory with a giant bowl of greek yogurt, cottage cheese, fruit and cereal.

[IK9]

I have never tried cottage cheese in my life. I can't get over the texture/how it looks lol

[phoenix4444]

I used to think the same thing about the texture. Now love the stuff.

Maybe one of these days I'll try it lol.. I'll be one of those "I am now 30 years old & am about to try cottage cheese for the 1st time ever" guys haha

[NoCarbsNoSugar]

I have never tried cottage cheese in my life. I can't get over the texture/how it looks lol

I think I also used to be grossed out by the texture. Can't remember when/how I got over it, but cottage cheese is now a daily thing for me.
