I am sure that there are others out there in the same position that I am in, but I struggle with portions when I am out to eat or at a friends/family members house. I can't just ask them to whip out measuring cups/spoons so I can portion my food. I am also not going to ask to see the packaging for the foods so I can scan it into my Atkins app. I usually try to judge what I think a serving is and go from there, but not knowing really bothers me. I come home and put in the generic non descript version of what I ate was and call it good. Usually when I do that I am way over my allotted numbers and that throws me off.
Since yesterday I gained a pound, but I guess that isn't too bad since I have done a lot worse in the past. I am concerned about this coming week because I am starting orientation for a new job on Monday. I think that I need to plan my lunches and probably dinner ahead of time so that I don't lose control and eat the things I shouldn't or too much of the things that I can eat. I am thinking quite a few salads this week will be happening. I might make some cloud bread so that will give me a little something more than a salad.
Looking back I noticed that I haven't posted pictures of cloud bread or about my favorite snack.... cheese chips. I will post later today about both of these items and add the links to where I got the recipes for them.
