Induction daily menu
Hi there I'm new here. Did atkins many years ago with success but over the years the pounds have found me again. I am looking for anyone who would like to post their menus daily to give each other ideas of what to eat and what we should be eating. I am always looking for ideas especially for breakfast since I'm not a huge fan of eggs.
I would be happy to join you! I started back on atkins yesterday so we are at the same starting point. I am always reading the threads looking for menu ideas and during induction especially because you are a little more limited.
today's menu:
B:2 fried eggs and 2 turkey sausage patties - coffee with HWC
D: chicken marsala, broccoli and salad
we went out to dinner and I looked at the menu before we left. The chicken marsala seemed to be the lowest in carbs so that was why I picked it.
Trying to keep drinking!!!
Have you ever had the ostrim sticks? They are ostrich meat sticks and are really good. I like to eat them for breakfast sometimes with a cheese stick.
My meal for today:
B: Linda Sue's receipe Ham and Cheese Quiche
L: Linda Sue's Meatloaf receipe w/green beans
D: Baked chicken thigh/side salad
S: Salami w/slice of cheese if needed
Awesome thanks guys :)
Here is my menu for today
Breakfast - cubed cheese and pepperoni (weird I know don't like eggs need ideas)
Lunch - steak and garden salad
Snack - two dill pickles
Supper - two hamburgers no bun with cheese slices still kind of hungry but not feeling a salad right now will have some veggies for snacks later
Never heard of those! Where do you buy them? I am in Canada
Menu today
B; protein shake with kale
L: turkey meat stew with kale
S: cheese stick
D: steak with salad
Where you asking about the ostrim sticks? Look on Amazon, I order from them directly since they come out cheaper then buying them in the store.
I was up 1 lb this morning but hoping it was the marsala I had?? Maybe to salty? I was not a happy camper though.:cry:
You can eat anything you want for breakfast!!
Have you guys had any success eating the atkins bars? I tried to do atkins last year and was not losing im thinking it was because of those and I gave up.
my menu today:
B: Panna Cotta and Ground beef with sauteed onion
Snack: Detour Bar
L: Linda Sue Chicken, Mushroom, Sausage and Cauliflower casserole
Snack: Cheese Stick
D: not sure yet
Aimes, if you are askign about the Linda Sue stuff, I find her recipes on the site Linda's Low Carb Menus & Recipes - Home She has a ton of awesome recipes, and has noted which are induction friendly
I would love to join in too! I love reading what everyone else is eating.
Breakfast - coffee, HWC and coconut oil (I have just started the CO today)
snack - salami and banana peppers - have just found these and am in love! 0g carbs! pretty spicy though..
Lunch - leftover steak sliced with some feta cheese
Dinner - Shepherds pie with cheese crusted leeks - just made it subbing celery for the carrot to lower the carbs- cant wait to bake and eat later! If it looks good i will post a picture in the food porn page! :)
Afternoon everyone
Slow start today, my youngest just came down with the flu so you know everything goes on hold.
B: two hard boiled eggs
S: ostrim stick
L: salad with chicken, egg, cucumber and shredded parm cheese with ranch
D: don't have any ideas yet
As for the Adkins bars I never had luck with them. I have had the detour bars and I think the carb count was better. I am finding that whole "if man made it don't eat it" thing to be words to live by. I have the coconut oil everyday in my coffee. I have come to enjoy the flavor but I do have to drink it with a lid. The oil does tend to collect on top and the lid keeps you from getting one big mouth full of oil. I only have about 1tsp everyday.
Cocount Oil
Hi PenPen,
Which coconut oil do you buy?
B- Atkins shake
L- green peppers/ green onions/ mushrooms with an egg
S- an atkins indulgence bar
D- Fajita Salad from Linda's LC
The CO is called Carrington Farms and I bought it at Costco. If you have a Vitamin Store around you, they have several brands that are good also. I just bought this one because it was cheaper and turned out to be good. The one at the Vitamin Store , i can't remember the name but it is in a white container and the label is yellow and green. It smells really good (if you like the smell of coconut)
I'll join. I'm on day2 of starting back on induction, I did Atkins sat year and did very well.
B: scrambled eggs and bacon
L: Rotel dish
D: chicken drum shrimp and zucchini
S: pimento cheese and pork rinds
Afternoon Ladies
B: protein shake 1 hard boiled egg
L; turkey chili
D; maybe Wendy's cheese burger w/o bun and salad
S: cheese stick
Lots of water with lemon. I have been reading up on the chai seeds...I might stop on the way home and get some. Sound be interesting! Anyone else ever had them?
Howdy yall!
B: Coffee, splenda and h&h
L: 2 eggs and a 4oz steak
D: Chourizo, mushroom stuffed peppers with a little cheese
S: Pimento cheese with pork rinds
My day :)
B: 2 eggs scrambled & 2 rashers of bacon
S: Slices of ham
L: Canned tuna mixed with red pepper, cucumber and mayo on romaine lettuce
S: Daybreak bar
D: Rump steak with cheddar cheese, mushrooms, fried egg and salad
Menu for yesterday my internet was down!
Breakfast : pepperoni slices and cubed cheese dill pickles
Lunch: Steak/Mushrooms/Salad
Supper: bologne and two fried eggs
Snack : Cut up cheese on plate put in microwave ---soooooo good
Breakfast 3 eggs scrambled w/spinach,mushrooms and feta.
Lunch Leftover chicken breast from last night I might throw it on a salad with oil and vinegar.
Dinner I'm going to try to make sausage saurkraut casserole.
I was at party a few day ago and they had saurkraut balls, god I love them. I didn't eat any. But its all I have thinking of. So I'm going to try to make it unto a casserole. Without the bread crumbs of course.

Connecticut looks to end year with 20th winBy PAT EATON-ROBB
The Associated Press | March 09,2013AP Photo
South Floridas Anthony Collins, back right, defends Connecticuts Ryan Boatright during the first half Monday in Tampa, Fla. The Huskies are looking to close out this season with 20 wins.STORRS, Conn. Connecticut heads into its season finale against Providence on Saturday facing a postseason ban, the breakup of the Big East conference, and injuries that could keep four key players on the bench.
But coach Kevin Ollie said none of that will matter to the Huskies (19-10, 9-8 Big East) as they go for their 20th win of the season, already having exceeded the expectations of most people.
We are going to play hard, he said. That last buzzer is going to go off and were going to have our heads held high. Were going to have our chests out, because we played as hard as we possibly can.
UConn wasnt expected to come close to 20 wins after losing five underclassmen to transfer and the NBA and seeing Hall of Fame coach Jim Calhoun retire in the offseason.
They were picked to finish ninth in the conference, and were banned from the NCAA and Big East tournaments based on a low academic performance rate, scores that involved no player on the current team.
But despite having no postseason to play for, this years squad shocked then-No. 14 Michigan State in the season opener and were 19-7 going into the last game of February.
Finally, things started to fall apart.
The Huskies lost to No. 7 Georgetown in two overtimes, and also lost leading scorer Shabazz Napier, who aggravated a right-foot injury. The teams star junior guard hasnt played since, and the Huskies are 0-3 since the injury.
Niels Giffey, the teams top player off the bench, broke a finger in the next game, a 61-56 loss at Cincinnati, and is out for the season. Center Tyler Olander followed him to the training room on Wednesday, breaking his left foot in the 65-51 loss at South Florida.
UConn already was playing without 7-foot-1 center Enosch Wolf, who was suspended after being arrested on Feb. 11 during an on-campus domestic disturbance.
Guard Omar Calhoun has been playing with a sprained right wrist for two weeks, and went 1 for 14 against the Bulls.
He and Napier are both listed as questionable for Saturday, but Ollie said both will play if they can.
I think we owe our fans, if youre healthy, you should go out and play, he said. You never know if its your last opportunity to step out on the court.
The Huskies will host a Providence team (17-12, 9-8) that has won three in a row and seven of its last eight, and will be playing to impress the NCAA tournament committee.
UConn beat the Friars, 82-79, in overtime on January 31. But Providence has won five of the last eight meetings with UConn and will be a heavy favorite at Gampel Pavilion.
If we get beat by 50 tomorrow, thats not going to change anything, the sentiments I have in my hearts for these guys, Ollie said. They are going to play hard tomorrow.MORE IN Wire SportsMIAMI At BYU, theyre looking to restore tradition. Full StoryTALLAHASSEE, Fla.

Um, i watched Chad Ochocinco smoke Champ Bailey in 05 bro. I think the game was a SUN or Mon night game.
I also watched a Mon night game in DEN against OAK 05-06? where Champ was abused. In the snow. Cant remember the name of that OAK WR's name. Went to JAX i think, and fell off the planet. Kerry Collins brought them back. Just before half time Plummer hit Rod Smith for a TD on a play action boot leg.
Notice how i can remember these moments from games and these plays but i dont really care so much becuase i still think Champ is great, and like all CB's they have bad plays and bad games??

On a muggy summer day, two women rang my doorbell, came inside, and began bagging up most of my clothing. They folded up things I once loveda fit-and-flare polka-dot chiffon dress; a funky vintage silk shirtand stacked them neatly in garbage bags to be donated or tossed. It could have been horrifying, except that Id invited them to do it. Having recently turned 36, Id decided to act on an increasingly nagging feeling: Few of my clothes really seemed like me anymore. I felt more adult than everhitting your midthirties is one of those markers you cant ignoreand yet I still wasnt quite giving myself permission to buy what I really needed, was still haphazardly splurging on whatever caught my eye, still holding on to low-rise jeans and glittery dresses and outdated boots I never wore. I wanted a new start, an opportunity to redefine myself. But I found it hard to let go. Some clothes I associated with my mother, who had recently died, or with the year I wrote my first book or met my husband. My clothes werent just practical; they held my memories. The history of my life, written in silk and cotton and rayon.
A woman in her late thirties or early forties is not old, but not young, either. In your twenties, the world handles you, alters you, but it also leaves you thankfullysurer of yourself and more amused by your flaws than you once were. After my mother died, I knew myself in ways I hadnt before. I also had quit my office job to write full-time at home in Brooklyn, along with teaching in an MFA program. As a professional with hard-won achievements behind me, I wanted my clothes to reflect a person touched by life, someone who knew a thing or two about what she did and did not want.
Related: The Bride Who Wore Red
Figuring out how your wardrobe might reflect your changing persona is not just a doctrinaire matter of ditching the miniskirts and youthful polka dots. It involves figuring out your own visual language, which isnt easy. My friends kept telling me that they, too, were facing this dilemma: They wanted their wardrobes to reflect new identitiesas mothers, bossesbut werent sure how to achieve that. We all were having difficulty saying goodbye to our former selves, even as we all sought a new style, one that would feel like us. I knew Id gone from liking a girlish, pretty look to one that was polished, tailored, pulled together, if still playful. Beyond that, though, what would that look be? How do you build a wardrobe thats grown-up but not severe?
One of my earliest memories: Its 1982, Im six, and my mother is dressing for dinner. She transforms as I watch. One minute she is my regular mother, the one who cooks me dinner in jeans and a sweater; the next she is a beauty in high leather boots and a faux-leopard coat, dabbing Shalimar behind her ears. Like that perfume bottle, her closet is a kind of magic that, once opened, can change everything. At 29, she could be mistaken for Ali MacGraw in Love Story. She has a taste for the theatrical and makes some of her own clothes, including a floor-length burgundy velvet dress, its plunging neckline delicately trimmed in white. I put on the velvet dress and step into her rich leather boots. None of it fitsI look ridiculousbut the dress drapes around me like the promise of a future self, indistinct but glamorous, the way that my mother is glamorous to me.
Related: Inside Sophie Auster's World
For years, I sought that touch of theatricality, that subtle drama. In my teens and early twenties, I scoured Goodwill and East Village thrift stores for a look that expressed the paradoxes of my personality: I was fundamentally polite, eager to pleasea typical eldest daughterbut as a young poet, I had an unconventional, creative side. I gravitated toward vintage with a touch of the eccentric. I remember a bright blue Himalayan wool coat with a peaked hood, white embroidery, and adorable pompoms; purple Levis cords worn with a 1970s-style green suede jacket.
By my midtwenties, Id added more classic and officey things, but I was always a little broke, loath to spend too much on any one item. The result was haphazard: half of my closet cheap fast fashion that pilled or frayed, half of it idiosyncratic high-end pieces bought on sale. Instead of investing in well-cut black trousers, for instance, Id go to a sample sale and buy a floor-length Catherine Malandrino dress embroidered with birds. Or a chic Miu Miu gingham-skirted shirt-dress80 percent off!which, lovely as it was, never got out much.

The Developing Trend In Books On Making Better Choices
PITTSBURGH, March 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- We all know that better choices lead to a better life, but why then do we continue to make poor decisions that cause us so much trouble? If we know that we should exercise, eat our vegetables, save for retirement, and not be reckless, what are the root causes of the choices that land us in hot water? As we seek to navigate these waters, the trend in the popularity of books about how to make wise choices helps us analyze and evaluate why we choose the things we choose.
Leading the charge is Krishna Pendyala's critically acclaimed book, Beyond the PIG and the APE: Realizing Success and true Happiness. In his book, Pendyala asserts that our attempts to avoid painful experiences and our pursuit of gratification are major drivers leading us to make poor choices. He states, "Dumb is when you don't learn from your own mistakes, smart is when you learn from your mistakes, and wise is learning from other people's mistakes."
An upcoming March release examining how our decisions are impacted by biases and irrational thoughts is Decisive: How to Make Better Choices in Life and Work by Chip Heath and Dan Heath. Another March release is From Smart to Wise: Acting and Leading with Wisdom by Prasad Kaipa and Navi Radjou in which the authors examine the decisions that lead to a balanced style of leadership.
With the growing interest in better choice making, invite Krishna Pendyala to answer:
- What are the invisible factors that drive the choices we make?
- How do small, everyday choices have such a big impact on our quality of life?
- Should you ever procrastinate?
- Why should you live two days at a time?

Thank You AltaGas!
Thank you to AltaGas Ltd. for your generous gift of $5000 to Camp Chief Hector YMCA
This gift went toward the refurbishment of tipi fire pits out at out camp. These refurbished fire pits are helping us keep our camp a safe place for children, youth and families.
Campers at Camp Chief Hector sleep in tipis with a fire pit in the middle that provides heat and light. Check out these photos of some happy campers returned to camp for a visit last week. They think these new fire pits are pretty great.
We appreciate support from our community to continue giving children, youth and families opportunities to be active and experience the outdoors. Thank you, AltaGas!

Camp Chief Hector Gave My Kids A Sense of Purpose
This story was originally posted in 2009. It's such an inspiring story, we had to share it again.
I recently received an email from my daughter Juliette who works for the Community YMCA. The end of her message read, "YMCA Calgary: We build strong kids, strong families and strong communities." As I look at my family today, I see four strong kids and a united strong family that continues to reap the rewards of YMCA programs.
My name is Amanda, and this is my family's Y story.
Our journey with the YMCA began some 15 years ago when our family life was turned upside-down. I was sitting down to a cup of tea with a friend when the phone rang. My husband, the breadwinner of our family, had broken the law and would be taken away from us. Suddenly a single mom of four young children, I knew that our lives would never be the same.
I was passionate about parenting. I adored my children and wanted nothing but the best for them. How would I be able to give them everything I dreamt of, as a single mom in dire financial need? I remember all the clichés – every cloud has a silver lining, the darkest hour before the dawn.
For us, there were some silver linings. Our true friends came to the forefront. One such friend, Chris, told me there was a way to have the childhood experiences I wanted for my children. I visited the South YMCA and applied for subsidies that would send my two eldest to YMCA Camp Chief Hector. I felt ashamed and embarrassed to reveal our family's financial status, but the applications were approved. Juliette and Alistair could to go to camp for $35 apiece instead of $800. I couldn't believe there were angels out there who cared enough to support my family.
As a mother, helping my children achieve a sense of purpose is part of what it means to be a parent. A sense of purpose is just what Camp Chief Hector instilled in the lives of each of my kids.
When I picked them up from camp that first summer, Juliette came running across the field in her oversized blue rain boots and borrowed rain jacket. "Mummy," she said, "I want to be a counselor and a leader one day."
When they were old enough, my youngest sons attended Camp Chief Hector too. Clifford, the middle brother, described it as "an initiation into manhood," and he hasn't been the same since, shifting from drugs and poor choices to a life of purpose and direction. I knew there had been a change in Christopher, the youngest and painfully withdrawn, when I read a letter he sent home.
"Mum," it read, "I am having so much fun. You know how I am shy? Well, after the first day I have made some friends. In fact, we are already 'tight.'" Tears of joy rolled down my cheeks.
Today, our journey with YMCA is stronger than ever. Juliette and Alistair both work with the Community YMCA, helping to build strong communities for our future. All four children are still involved with Camp, either as alumni, volunteers, staff or campers.
I do not know where we would be if it were not for the generosity of YMCA Calgary's Strong Kids donors and the amazing, gifted staff. YMCA truly does build strength in people, and in families.

Camp Chief Hector YMCA Update – CAMP IS A GO!
Dear camper parents,
We are busily preparing for summer camp at Camp Chief Hector YMCA and are counting down the days until campers arrive. We also received a lot of rain (there may be a few mosquitos!) but other than a few diverted trails and a couple of leaky roofs we are in good shape. Programs will continue as planned with trip modifications as needed due to trail closures or water levels. We are in communication with provincial authorities regarding backcountry travel advisories.
The camp registration office remains closed without telephones/voicemail until the Calgary downtown core has electricity restored. We ARE able to access our webmail so send us a message at firstname.lastname@example.com. Camper Info/Medical forms can be filled out at http://cch.campfax.com.
We wish you all the best and will see you soon.
