Thursday

I have been trying to finger out this carb thing and it was to confusing for me so I decided to go with the exchange list. That makes it really simple, first you are to have 1 starch, 2 protein, 1 veg., 1 milk, 1 fat and l fruit at each meal. I have to ask about snacks. Then you go to the list and pick one from each group, so it works for breakfast, lunch and dinner. For instants breakfast yesterday I had 1 bread, 2 slices of bacon and 1 egg. I could of had 4 bacon and no egg so it just depends on what you feel like eating. today I had 1/2 cup cream of wheat, 1 serving of bacon and a half an apple. I was suppose to eat 4 bacon but that seems like a lot. Last night for dinner I had 1/2 cup pasta, 4 oz of chicken and salad.
This would be good when you go out you can kind of finger what you can eat before you get there or you can just take your list with you. Well I will give this a try this week and next and see how I do. I guess if I didn't have fruit with dinner then I could have it as a snack later. So as long as you exchange in the list you are eating just about the same each time in calories, carb., protein and fat. So this could work well, we shell see. Take care and happy dieting.
