I LOST TWO & HALF POUNDS!!  (So that is a total of 83 lost since May 28, 2004 )
I have already reached my FIRST goal that was to lose 40 pounds by Fall Sprawl! My SECOND goal was to lose an additional 20 for a total of 60 by Fall Sprawl.... which I did. My THIRD goal was lose another 20 for a total of 80 by January 31, 2005...but that did not happen....
Then my FOURTH goal... was to lose an additional 23 for a total of 90 pounds by April 30, 2005..... This did not happen either....but it was be close But that is OKAY!! I'm working on NEW goals with my trainer.  ... We are not aiming for a "WEIGHT" right now, but more eating the right foods, right portions, right times of the day (several small meals) and LOTS of exercise!!
New ONE YEAR Before & After Pics will be coming soon.... Shane & I will take some over the weekend.
Also, be sure to check out "My new personal goal Introducing the future Shell Marr "

snack baked potato (went out for dinner with my boyfriend and parents and lo and behold, nothing I could eat on the menu  no bother though as I wasn't that hungry, so I just ordered a baked potato - the waiter thought this was pretty hilarious though, probably thought I was anorexic or somthing...grrr...)
snack Luna bar

Zero extraneous activity. Not much output, therefore not much input is required beyond meeting basal metabolic needs/nutritional requirements in a way that does not morally or psycho-spiritually offend me.
--puffed millet, 2 cups (1 cup in 2 doses)
--rice cakes, 4 (over the course of the day)
--puree of chickpeas, 1/2 cup
--puree of spinach
--puree of celery and asparagus
--romaine and iceburg lettuce, alfalfa, clover and radish sprouts, parsley
--vegetable broth (Imagine, no-chicken)
I am feeling anything but fruity today. If I have anything later it will probably be a few more rice cakes, perhaps with a little more "hummus," and alfalfa sprouts. When I say "hummus," I mean puree of chickpeas, i.e. no fat, no spices, no herbs--JUST SEA SALT. Just feeling really plain, bland and ordinary today. I don't know why, but the smell/taste of anything sweet really nauseates me, today...even the sight of a banana makes me want to retch.
Maybe it's the heat.
Beverages:
Lots of water
Tea--green jasmine, camomile, rooibos mixed with fennel
(Maybe) a little real cran. diluted with lemon or lime and water. I'm craving something a little "tart," but not sweet.
I guess I have to face the world and do a little shopping this weekend.

That's no where near enough calories, you know?  Below 1500 is not healthy at all...you are periously close to starving yourself!!! No wonder you have major bloat with that little SF in your day. I have to snack ALOT to keep my tum from going haywire.

Middle of the night snack - Glass soy milk. Corn thin & jelly.
B - Instant oatmeal, Acacia, honey, banana. Rooibos with soy milk. Glass fruit juice.
L - Tuna mayo noodles.
S - Tangerine. 2 crackers. 4 corn thins with PB & jelly (I felt sick and needed sugar ).
D - Shrimp risotto. Glass of white wine.
Total calories 2365.
BMR + Lifestyle - 500 = 2214...
...so I was 151 cals over. But I thought it was going to be way worse after the PB & jelly fiasco. And my protein intake was 18%.

Laurel,
I notice you eat a lot of beets. Are they canned, frozen, fresh? What do you put on them and how do you prepare them? I don't think I've ever had a beet.

Beets

Oh yeah I love my beets Mostly I buy them canned because they are so easy and convenient - already cooked (enough for me anyway) so I basically just open them and eat. They're so flavourful you can really eat them alone but I sometimes put a little balsamic vinegar or lemon juice on them and maybe some herbs and spices (and let them sort of 'marinade' in that for a while...)
I also make spaghetti with beet sauce fairly often (as tomatoes don't agree with me) - basically just tomato sauce with beets subbed in for the tomatoes (yum!)
I must admit that I don't think I've ever bought a fresh beet - it seems like so much work. My mom buys them though. Prep is pretty similar to a potato or carrot (as they're all root vegetables). I think you're supposed to cook them with the peels on though because they discolour quickly like sweet potatoes (losing nutrients too). Then you can boil them or sautee them; roasting them is good too - I'm sure you could even microwave too, like a potato. And of course there's borscht (my boyfriend's Ukranian grandmother makes THE best borscht!)
Well, there it is ... I'm craving beets now!

I know...I know. I didn't post my SFS supplements. Believe me, it's not intentional. I still can't eat much more than that most days. UG.
Thanks for your concern.
That's why I decided to start posting, looking for help.
I need it.

Do you use the beets as the sauce on the noodle all by itself? Or only use the juice? Also, I can't tell by reading the post, but it sounds like you add the juice to the tomato sauce and just not use the tomatoes in the sauce? Or am I reading this all wrong?

No I don't use tomatoes at all anymore. What I actually do is just put a can of beets in the blender (you could also use a food processor) with a bit of the juice so it gets the consistency of a tomato sauce and then simmer it on the stove with basil, oregano, garlic etc. while the noodles cook (i.e. just like you'd do with a canned spaghetti sauce).
It quite surprising how much it looks and tastes like tomato sauce, actually! AND it doesn't hurt my stomach (like tomatoes do for me, sadly). Ahhhh I love beets lol

Yes, beets are a divine! I like the canned baby ones too--not the pickled ones, though. Have you tried Nakano seasoned rice vinegar? It's also great splashed on beets! They're also really good with cinnamon and a little dijon mustard with a tad of vinegar for tang. Have you ever eaten too many!!! I have. Nature's candy. They are good roasted though. Just peel them afterwards and put on some rubber or latex gloves to avoid the axe murderess look.

Dill is really good with beets, too. Tomatoes and tomatoe products (and peppers) really cause me a lot of discomfort as well. I miss a good marinara or salsa, but the pain is just agonizing.

I'll have to try beets as "tomato" sauce. I've been looking for an alternative to tomatoes. Thanks!

I've never tried beets w/rice vinegar - but I have had them with lots of other kinds of vinegars (seasoned red wine, seasoned white wine, balsamic etc etc etc) and oh, beets are so delish with the tang of vinegar (or lemon juice too). So I'll have to see if I can find some rice vinegar now!
I want to buy a dehydrator - Rachel Ray on 30 Min. Meals (on the food network I think) was making dehydrated root veg chips the other day with all these exotic root veggies (plus beets and sweet potatoes and such) and it looked SO GOOD!!

I want a dehydrator too! Beet chips rule. And carrot chips too. And zucchini chips. And sweet potatoe chips. And even turnip chips. Oh dear, yet another toy to acquire. Dehydrator dreams. I will put it on my wish list. Apple chips. Homemade and totally safe.
