What a week. And it’s only Wednesday! Ha!

Lower carb has been going OK…. I’ve lost a couple of lbs, but to be frank – I had gained a few because we’ve been slacking on the weekends a little more than I’d like to admit. So….

You know what our lunches look like for this week.

Here are the other things I’ve been eating. I’ve been pretty full, so I need to figure out a way next week to have less food and higher macros all around or something..

Breakfast:

Omgosh. The egg is awesome. Definitely making these every week. Mark even sent me a text about how much he loved it. 🙂

Not sure I want to give up having greek yogurt in the morning because the high protein in it and low calories, but if my weight doesn’t move and I need to cut out more carbs, I will. (or will try to find a lower carb yogurt maybe)  Same with the English muffin. *sobs* Might have to find a lower carb one there too. I’ve cut it down to 1/2 for now.
