Finally back home after a very busy week traveling! My fiancé and I headed to Costco as soon as we got back to prep all our food for the week! Ready to get back on a normal routine!! No points today. Also decreased my cals just a bit! I never felt super hungry last week, even being in a deficit

I love to make my own oat milk for my coffee to limit synthetic thickeners. For some reason I found out last time that it really helped me to lose weight by eliminating my creamer that has gums in it (silk) even tho I tracked it. So here we are! I also do a hemp milk sometimes! Also it’s hecka cheaper 😂😜

That’s a lot, you definitely shouldn’t be feeling like that. I’d maybe start with 100 calories per day ( that’s if some of the weight is water weight) if your protein is around a gram per lb I’d try upping your carbs for more energy

![Profile picture of Lauren Dostert]()
Yea you def need to increase! Shouldn’t be feeling that way, probably way too low!

I would definitely increase 100-150 calories. More in carbs if your protein is adequate.

To be honest, the only person I’m competing against here is myself. I don’t need to “win” the challenge – the win for me would be losing some weight and staying consistent and accountable overall. I like that this challenge is 8 weeks instead of 4. It feels more like a long haul instead of a temporary intensity!

What devo is this? I just finished Peace for the Anxious Heart from Daily Grace and it was AMAZING! I’m now doing Trust, a walk through the psalms, also from Daily Grace.

Hi Michelle! I am SO very sorry for missing your message. I am finding some “unread” ones in the notifications and going back through. The devo is New Morning Mercies by Tripp. The version I bought is a ‘study’ version with room to make notes in the margins. I am going to look into the ones you mentioned too. THANK YOU.

Hi Mandy — my oldest kiddo and his wife are moving to Seattle late May / early June. I’ll be driving them up the coast from Los Angeles. Exciting! So, I’ll be visiting near you often.

Tuna fish, a little mayo, lots of dill relish and 3 multigrain crackers crushed on top.
Egg whites with bacon bits and protein oatmeal for breakfast

Any kind of rice cakes with peanut butter or PB2 and fruit. Kodiak pancakes or waffles with sugarfree syrup and fruit and egg whites. I also make a huge…Read More

I do a hamburger bowl for lunch a lot of days. Either lean ground beef or bison. Put it over rice with shredded lettuce and then pretty much anything else you put on a burger. Ketchup, mustard , tomato, some onion and some everything but the bagel seasoning🤌🏼🤌🏼

I like to get these frozen veggie pastas, after I cook them I add in some type of protein, shredded chicken, I get frozen turkey meatballs, 97/3 ground beef. So good! Also I like to do bowls as well. Lettuce base, pick some type of veggie and a protein! You can do like taco bowls, Big Mac bowls, chicken Fajita bowls! The options are endless!

We usually end up grabbing a rotisserie chicken and a hearty salad. If we got a bit more time we chop up some potatoes and have an easy protein like turkey sausage chopped up and some veggies with good spices 🤓

We take plain non fat Greek yogurt and mix in either onion soup mix or ranch mix. Cut up some veggies and use it as a dip. Tons of protein!
