At least it doesn’t have to. Today’s lunch had so much food that my dog ate half of it.
Two cheeseburger patties with mayo and zero-sugar ketchup, cottage cheese, jalapeño-stuffed olives, and two small dill pickles.
8½ carbs, 1,254 calories (I’m not counting calories – *See update below), 110 grams of protein, and 73 grams of fat.
* Update: Seen my doctor today. He’s very happy with my weight-loss progress, but I’ve stalled at 224.5 LBS for a week. Doc says low-carb is definitely the way to go (for me), but to watch those calories as well. I was on vacation and NOT getting in those 10,000+ steps, but the amount of food still needs to create a deficit, even with the exercise.
The pyramid chart that answers why I’m always so buff!
