No walking today, as it's my normal day off.
I'm still struggling with balancing carbs and calories on a Sunday when there's a chicken leg quarter for lunch after church. Last week worked out pretty well with a slice of spinach pie for breakfast, but that's all gone now. I decided to finish off the last of the berries and make up another smoothie for breakfast. That was fine, but I used more berries than the recipe calls for (again). And, I ended up hungry all the while the chicken was cooking. Long story short...I got my foods all mixed up, still felt hungry a good part of the day, and I was driving myself nuts trying to balance it all out.
What this tells me is that I've got to do a better job of planning ahead for Sundays. That Sunday chicken for lunch ritual is important to DH and there's no reason that I can't balance out chicken (of all foods) in an Atkins menu. I just have to figure it out how to make it work. Well, I've got a week to come up with another idea.
I'm uncomfortable at this point in my journey, thinking of food and numbers all too much, as far as I'm concerned.

Pre-planning is definitely the key and something I need to do more of too. Maybe sort out your days meals in advance. It will just take a bit of tweaking and you will have it sorted. You can do this!

Thanks, Squiggs, it's exactly what I need to do. It seems like it's only Sunday that gives me a problem. I want (need!) to eat something for breakfast before church, so it needs to be fairly easy, quick, but satisfying. With a chicken leg quarter running 500+ calories for lunch, if I have my normal breakfast of 400+ calories, I'm left with very, very little for the rest of the day, incl. a snack or 2, regardless of the number of carbs. I know I can find the right combination, I just need to do it!!! Hope you're having a good day!
