performance: losing 1.2 lb a week

I started on LA weightloss about a year ago, after my second daughter was born. I got back to my pre-pregnancy weight - which was never a happy weight, plateaued, then ran out of steam (not unusual for me). My hope is that fatsecret can be a place where I can be honest with myself, get some good tips, and track my progress now that the centers have closed. I really want to get this over with and lose this weight once and for all!

L.A. Lites Alternatives
i'm still following, although somewhat loosely. i find the key is getting in the protein and all the veggies... and watching the carbs, in fact i try to eat less carbs than i'm alotted on plan. i really like lawl because its simple (the hard part is staying metally on track). i went off the bars when i first started the program, so i haven't really been too affected by the closures.

Ideas for Packed Lunch for Work
I totally agree w/ Sweetalot, bringing your lunch is key to success - making last minute food decisions when you're hungry is never a good idea.
I make myself a fresh salad with protein most everyday. I change it up sometimes its a greek salad w/ spinach, lettuce, tomato, olives, cucumber, red bell pepper, a bit of feta cheese with fresh lemon squeezed on it. Another fave is chinese chicken salad: greens with celery, mandarin oranges, cilantro, and whatever else sounds good. I dress it with Soy Vay Cha Cha Chinese Chicken salad dressing cut w/ rice vinegar to control the fat and cals. This week I'm doing a leafy version of caprese salad: greens (usually spinach or spinach/lettuce combo) tomatoes, some fresh mozzarella, white beans, a little avacado, basil, and either balsamic vinagrette or italian dressing.

To add to my salads I often just buy a rotisserie chicken from the store on sunday and bring a few ounces each day for a little protien to go w/ my salad.

I find that having salad for lunch really helps me get in all of my veggies, and fills me up.

good luck. it takes time to pack a good lunch, but if you make it tasty you'll find you look forward to it.

How funny. I just now figured out what the colors of the lines in the weight history graph mean. Now I've got a new goal: got to get into the yellow!
