Okay, so I was just kidding. We are not going to actually eat Bread, Rolls, Pies, or Pastry. Well, just a little bit maybe. We are not fat shaming either folks. I think we have all been here and this lady is very dear to me. I have her posted in my bathroom near the scale. My dog actually watches me weigh every morning and I somehow think he is laughing.
The point of this entry is to offer 3 days of very easy eating as a trial for you to see just how simple it is and how rewarding. Just try for 3 days.
Day 1
Breakfast-Overnight Oats-Have a big serving. (Recipe at the end.)
Lunch-Big veggie salad with any meat you like added to it. Pescatarians add salmon or tuna. My husband likes ham.
Dinner-Grilled Salmon on your grill or on a George Forman. Add rice and any veg. choice to this dinner. (Not too much rice and lots of veg. raw or cooked.
Day 2
Breakfast-Cereal-Yes, cold cereal. You can have it any time for any meal or sprinkled on top of anything. Read the labels to get a fortified cereal with not too much fat, add 2% milk, and at least 1 cup of fruit.
Lunch-Tuna or anything else (no cheese) sandwich. Use a high fiber bread, only a dab of V and O or any low cal salad dressing-yes, on a sandwich, no mayo..
Dinner-Great Big Salad
Day 3
Breakfast-2 boiled eggs and a piece of high fiber toast with a bit of butter-not marg.
Lunch-Pita or Naan bread with melted cheese in the microwave and a veg. salad.
Dinner-French Toast with a fruit salad. (I LOVE breakfast for dinner and I highly recommend it!)
Overnight Oats-Pour a packet of any type of instant oats into a medium sized bowl. (I use a salad bowl from my china set.) Pour in one of those little chopped fruit cups-I like chopped peaches with the juice. 60 cal from Del Monte, sold in 4 packs) Add a layer of unflavored yogurt. Drizzle honey over the yogurt. Add fresh fruit-I like sliced strawberries, blueberries, and grapes. Add another layer of yogurt and top with chopped nuts-your favorite kind. I like walnuts, the friend who gave me this recipe likes almonds, her daughter likes peanuts! Put in the fridge overnight. Have this for a meal with a fruit salad or just for a snack. Also anytime, have a smoothie with protein powder.
Give it 3 days. Honestly, almost nothing special to buy which is a big criteria for me and no big baking or cooking or prep time. Let me know how you do.
