I'm at a steady weight now. Not as slim as I'd like to be, but the meals aren't causing me to gain or lose. So I figured it's time after 2 years and 4 months to try to eat on my own.
Breakfast is 2 egg whites and 1 slice of wholegrain Ezekiel bread. Maybe a banana on my way to work. Protein shake with my coffee that takes me at least till 11 to drink all of it.
Lunch is a small can of chopped chicken, roma tomato, and celery with a tiny dab of mayo. Maybe 1/2 a teaspoon of mayo.
Dinner varies - I've done a bag 'o slaw with a Morning Star Spicy Black Bean Veggie Burger. Or a NS dinner that I still have a few of in my freezer.
I've only been doing this for a few weeks. When I get tired of the chicken I'll get Lean Cuisine egg rolls or maybe make chili or something.
I am nervous. I don't think I have the portion control thing down. But I have no desire at all to go to any fast food place.
I do eat a bunless bacon cheeseburger with fries the nights I bowl. Though tonight I think I'll switch that up and get a hot dog.
NS isn't meant to be forever. Though I was planning on it that. It's just so easy to grab something out of the fridge or out of the pantry and zap it. However, I know it's healthier to eat non-processed foods.
Snacking is either an apple or grapes.
So we'll see how I do. :-)
2/16/21 Update -
And I failed the doing it on my own. I'm back up to 235. So after my roof gets replaced from damages due to Hurricane Sally, I will be going back on NutriSystem. I don't feel like I failed and I'm not upset at all that I'll be going back. The food is good and I know it works. :-)
