So I've been trying to eat correctly and less often but with more balance and I've found that I seem to be doing better controlling cravings. I eat a lot of fresh veggies and low fat fruits like raspberries and strawberries but I still add in an occasional orange or banana or some pineapple so that I won't crave. I have made chicken in the oven and I use my roasting pan that has a wire grill to elevate the meat from the bottom. it prevents the chicken from sitting in the fat drippings and allows more fat to render from the chicken. I admit that I do eat the skin because I just like it too much but the size of the chicken piece I eat is literally only 2" by 3" - tiny thighs and I eat a lot of veggies with it, both in the form of a 1.5 cup spring mix salad with no fat Italian dressing and steamed fresh veggies like carrots or green beans or broccoli. I love my steamed veggies and I only steam them to an 'el Dante' doneness because I love the crunch. Also I do not add fat like butter or oil because I use onion and garlic powders (not salts)and Italian seasoning that has zero salt and a black/white/pink pepper, coriander, all spice blend. More than enough flavour for anybody. I also found that my body seems to be accepting the diet now with all the walking I've been doing. Averaging about 2km daily. I feel like I am losing weight very slowly and that is exactly what I want... I want to lose it very slowly so that I won't yo-yo like many end up doing. My goal is to be at my desired weight by July or August of 2019. A realistic goal I believe is possible and fully doable.

So here is my typical breakfast. I don't always have the cornmeal bacon, sometimes I will change it up with cured bacon. I go to the wholesaler to buy my bacon because it tends to be much leaner than conventional grocery store bacon. I also make my own cornmeal bacon (being Canadian of course) from extra lean pork loin and I cut all the outer fat cut away before curing it. I know exactly what goes into my Cornmeal bacon and I can assure you there is NO preservatives and very little salt and sugar. I actually use Dextrose instead of sugar. It takes 14 days to fully cure because of the lower sugar and salt levels compared to a national brand but it's definitely worth it.

Anyways I'm rambling on... so as you can see; 2 large boiled eggs, 2 small pieces of my cornmeal bacon, 1.5 cups of spring mix salad with 1.5 tbsp. of Kraft Fat Free Italian salad dressing, a mini cucumber with a pinch of Windsor Half Salt on each half plus 1 slice of Rubschlager Bavarian Multigrain bread cut in half and toasted (which I forgot to put in the picture) with 1 tsp of soya margarine. Plus I have my coffee with this meal.

This totals out to 27% of my RDI with (29%) Carbohydrates, (44%) Fat, and (27%) Protein. Additionally my Sugars at 10.36 and my Sodium is at 1614 which is a little over half of my daily allotment but I can live with it because I sweat profusely when I exercise.

I don't think this is too bad but I would definitely accept any comments and/or suggestions as to how this compares overall as I am new to dieting and I want to do it right.

thanks all :)
