Keep On Keepin' On...

Hello, gang! Well, I've been plowing through phase 3 maintenance phase and it's had it's ups and downs--in more ways than one. I've found that if I start eating a few nuts, they become more and more until I can't look at another nut. Same thing with cheese. So I've been trying to eliminate those two items except for once in a while! I still haven't given up my apples with peanut-butter for lunch though!

I'm also still eating miracle noodles every day, which really keeps me regular! The only problem is, some times I'd rather NOT have them, and if I don't I'm a bit uncomfortable. I do have some of the konjac flour, but sometimes I just can't get that down.

I'm trying to add more vegetables in, in general, but sometimes it's easier to grab a piece of fruit. But I have made some great discoveries: something called "one-carb bread" which actually tastes great--if you want the link to order it, let me know and I'll post it--and I've been having plain yogurt mixes with a little Walden Farm's no-calorie maple syrup and some berries or banana slices! Yum! It makes me not even think about ice cream any more! I also really miss the ChocoPerfection bars, but they are a bit pricey so I haven't ordered them recently.

My weight has seemed to stabilize now, but it's a bit over my LIW limit. I'm also considering doing a three-week round again before I go on vacation, but I'll let you know if I do! Until next time, Merry
