New month, new start. Definitely got away from my progress the last two months. Aaaaagh.
But buying the tickets to Japan has renewed my determination, so i might not be at like. My UUGW but I can sure as hell make it to the OG September goal!

genuinely didn't think a plateau would happen to me. calories? in check. exercise? every day. plateau? couldn't be me.
and yet.
here we are.
so many of the reddit forums recommend eating at maintenance for a while and it makes me sick to even think about trying, so we're going to weigh and count everything obsessively again, not just the big/non-vegetable things, and lower the max daily calories to 800. i know that's actually a pretty high number for edblr, but 1000 had been working for me for so longβ¦
wish me luck! almost excited to feel the pains again.
My collection of meals under 300 cals (ongoing):
Egg Cups (about 45 cal per egg cup or 270 for 6): preheat oven to 360 F, use a nonstick muffin tin, fill muffin slots to top with spinach, add about 14 grams of chicken to each (84 grams or 3 oz for 6), bake for about 20 minutes or until cooked through. For flavor with very little cals, I dip them in sriracha. Ingredients below.
Liquid egg whites
Spinach (or any quick cooking veggie)
Pro2Go chicken/cooked chicken breast (optional, remove 17 cals per cup if leaving out)
Safe Tacos (about 70 cals per taco, 280 for 6): spread half of laughing cow wedge onto one half of the taco shell, add chicken and fold in half. Either toast on nonstick pan or microwave if you're feeling lazy. For dipping, I again use sriracha to keep calories lower. Ingredients below.
Mini Mission Carb Balance tortillas (25 cal each)
Laughing Cow Light (any flavor that's 25 cals works)
Pro2Go chicken/cooked chicken breast
Creamy Chicken & Vegetable Soup (about 225 cals for 1/2 recipe): Please note: I usually eyeball the vegetable amounts, so feel free to add less if you like. I tried to overmeasure for the sake of guestimating calories. To make, bring a cup and a half of water to boil (can add more later to taste). add chopped onion, zucchini, celery, carrots and bouillon. let come to a simmer. cook for about 5-10 minutes. add ground chicken breast and 1 tsp thyme. bring to simmer again and cook another 5-10 minutes. if worried about raw chicken, you can also pre-cook it in a non-stick pan beforehand. finally right before serving, add 100 ml of oatmilk. Ingredients below.
Oatly/Califa Oatmilk Barista Edition (very important to get barista edition! other versions may be lower calorie but it won't be as creamy and even "unsweetened" tends to be sweet)
Yellow onion, 1/2, chopped
Zucchini, 1 medium, chopped
Celery, 1 stalk, chopped
Carrot, 1/2 cup chopped
Better Than Bouillon Chicken Bouillon, 60 g (honestly you can add less and cut calories, but I like things salty and flavorful. add this or any chicken bouillon you prefer to taste. Adjust cals accordingly)
Ground chicken breast, 100g (optional, remove 55 cals per serving if leaving out)
Dried thyme, 1 tsp
More to be added as I think of them.
