What’s Typical Food Day For Maintainers?

Just curious now that you are up the ladder and all what you do you eat in a typical day? When I got to goal I switched from Atkins to S Beach and never did the ladder. Just curious….

    Typical
    B: 1 cup of coffee with H&H.
    L: if I have it…4-8 oz protein (eggs, all meats, seafood and fish) and a limitless salad (various lettuces, greens and cabbages, tomatoes, red onion, pickles and olives, red and green bell peppers) w/a dollop of homemade dressing (usually sour cream, a bit-OK alot!- of hot sauce, and homemade taco seasoning.

    D: 4 to 12 oz protein ( 12 if I didn’t eat lunch) Another salad similar to above and a warm vegetable like cauliflower, carrots, green beans, bok choy. Sometimes I will make a stirfry of protein and vegetables or a "stewy" dish.

    S: I rarely snack nowadays because it leads me up to no good (nuts and cheese-triggers), but if I do it is usually sunflower seeds in the shell. A glass of wine every now and again.

    While I prefer to eat whole food, I do try to keep a "nothing is truly off limits to me" attitude. That said, I choose NOT to eat or atleast try to keep at a minimum: sugar, artificial sweeteners, grains and breads, legumes (peanuts included), potatoes, fruit, and most dairy products (exp H&H and SC). I do best with KISS.

    B whole wheat eng. muf with a little butter and blueberry preserves and a bananna
    L cottage cheese and cantaloupe or Greek yogurt and fruit or tuna or grilled chick and salad
    D some kind of lean protein: chick, fish, turkey, sauteed veg. in garlic and olive oil
    snacks: almonds,south beach cereal bar,fruit(very limited almonds)(any kind of fruit doesn’t hurt me)

    weekends: wine (plenty)… very small portion of pasta on Sun.

    I’ve been eating this way since last June and have been able to maintain and it’s very liveable. I do weigh myself often, just to be sure!
