			Hiya T-Cake nice to meet ya ... 
 
 
T-Cake .. diet info por favor 
 
		 
Ok, my stall-out of the past was simply from eating too much processed food and wayyyyy too many carbs which, in some cases, went unnoticed by me.  For example, I could easily OD on fruit and good carbs without ever seeing it as a problem.
Since I started eating 40/30/30 in February, I haven't stalled out.  Haha -- I almost typed "yet"... but that's just my nature.  Always waiting for the other shoe to drop... 
Diet in general:
Mon to Fri. breakfast:
4 oz turkey burger or 4 turkey sausage links
2 slices of fat free cheese 
1/2 c. Eggbeaters
Water: 32 to 64 oz by lunchtime (11am); depends on if I did morning cardio and/or if I'm lecturing at work that day.  Lecture days send water through the roof.  I drink more in the afternoon, usually another 4 to 8 glasses (another 32 to 64 oz) all before bedtime.  I try to avoid caffeine, but I drink diet Coke every other time I go out to eat.
Lunch in general as of late (11am)
The last few weeks I've been eating lots and lots of chicken/vegetable/whole wheat pasta medleys that I make and freeze on Sundays.  The basics:
1/2 c. whole wheat pasta
6 oz chicken or shrimp
1.5 c. of onion or peppers or tomatoes or spinach or a combo
(The veggies and protein are pre-cooked using 2 tsp of olive oil at  home to help absorption)
Carbs at lunch usually consist of strawberries (1.5 c. halves) OR grapes (1 c red seeless) OR a whole grapefruit.  
After-school snack (sometimes I have to eat this around 2pm instead of normal 3:15 because I'm just starving EARLY):
25 almonds OR a Clif bar (depends on how many carbs I had at lunch; if I'm still short of 30%, I'll have a Clif bar)
*I struggle at work with hypoglycemia mixed with the sheer HEAT of my 80+ degree classroom.  It is AWFUL in here -- no windows, no circulation.  I keep emergency 12 oz Gatorade on hand in case I'm about to black out and/or faint.  I'm a good judge of my blood sugar level.*
Dinner (usually between 5:30 and 6:30pm)
Similar to lunch:  some sort of protein/carb/vegetable mix.
Example: I'll make pizzas in my oven:
2 high fiber tortillas (5 g per tortilla)
0.25 c. fat free spaghetti sauce
1.5 c. sauteed vegetables with 1-2 tsp olive oil for cooking
0.5 c. shredded fat free cheese
2 servings turkey pepperoni OR a chicken breast if I have some on hand
Broil in the oven.
Night snack: NO CARBS after dinner.
I've gotten GREAT about this.  I get super stubborn at times and will SOMETIMES cave and have some more carbs if I have a sugar low... but Ulter has to push and push me to have it because I don't want to ruin my plan... but I don't want to be sick either.
Snack at night is usually almonds (15-25) or 2 T of ANPB
I hope that's what you wanted to know.  I've been diligent about this.  For the most part, junk is out, unless I'm on a sugar crash and I need it (case in point: today I was about to faint around 1:30 in anatomy... and the only food I had in the room was a 'fun size' butterfinger in my freezer from eons ago.  First bad choice I've made in a long time... but I had no food, my co-worker had no food... and I was out of Gatorade AND Clif bars and about to crash... so yeah... *sigh*  I am pissed about it, but ... I felt stuck and it was the fastest sugar I could find.)  Blah.
