Greeky gets serious!!!

Agree with Jen..

I have a low thyroid--but found out after several blood tests. (I have the one where you gain weight--and my hubby has the one that you lose weight ) I wanna switch with him. Kidding!

Btw, have you ever been to Greece? I usually go there every summer, I looooove the Greek islands! Justin and I are going there for a week or two this summer

I HIGHLY recommend going to Voulgameni. It is on the ocean just south of Athens. Was the most beautiful place I have ever been... Its also not too far from Ancient Corinth, and the ruins there are just amazing...

is this for me or jill?

it doesnt look like cheesecake, chocolate, or frappuccinos fit into the acceptable refeed foods..

 

[Jodi]

That was for Jill

 

[greekblondechic]

ok I decided to start refeeding Saturday and go thro Sunday so I can have plenty of uninterrupted FEEDING time

now to find foods for Saturday..

 

[Jodi]

On Sunday, keep your carbs to low gi sources ie:

Brown Rice
Sweet Potatos
Oats
Fiber One Cereal
Beans

And DON'T step on the scale on Sunday or Monday - trust me.

 

[greekblondechic]

From what I'm reading..stay with low or no fat carb foods, and not too much sugar.. what kinds of SWEETS does this leave?

And how much do I eat? Til I cant eat no more???

 

[Jenny]

oooh, I wish I could have a refeed like that After that half a jar of pb I'm not allowed to though

Have fun and enjoy

 

[greekblondechic]

I wish frappuccinos were ok tho!

No sweets - Its not as exciting as it first seems LOL

Bagels, pasta, bread, crackers, pancakes, waffles, granola. If its low or no fat, its fair game.

Eat til your satisfied but be sure you eat enough. Don't just eat 1 bagel and then nothing else for hours. Shit, I could eat 3-4 bagels in one sitting

 

[greekblondechic]

how about fruit?

and the sticky says ff/sf ice cream

and maybe some ff cool whip w/ sf ff pudding...

I'm never satisfied

 

[greekblondechic]

during a refeed, do u still take in your normal protein and fat?

 

[greekblondechic]

and whats this i see? caramel popcorn?

hehehe..pasta just doesnt do it for me...

 

[Jodi]

NO CARMEL POPCORN - Damn Leslie

The ice cream is fine for a small amount. Skip the pudding and the fruit. We want to keep fructose low.

No fat is zero - you don't take in ANY extra fat than what the food your eating naturally has.

Your protein remains somewhat low as well. No more than 1G protein per lb of BW.

 

[Jodi]

This isn't a cheat day - its a refeed and must be done properly or you could gain fat.

 

[greekblondechic]

ok...so some kind of ice cream hmmm what else

no added fat, just protein and carbs :-D

I'm going to go shopping tomorrow so I need to know what to buy...

what about other kinds of popcorn

 

[greekblondechic]

I know, I dont mean to be difficult, I just MUCH prefer anything sweet over foods like bread and pasta

Thanks for your help

 

[Jodi]

Sorry but no sweets. We all prefer sweets but such is life.

NO SWEETS!!!!!!

Plain air popped popcorn is fine - no oils or butter AND NO microwave popcorn.

Not much protein.

Bagels, cereals, pancakes, FF muffins, waffles, potatoes, crackers. If its FF, NO SUGAR then its fine.

 

[Jodi]

Greeky my dear - please read that article again. You will clearly see no sweets

 

[greekblondechic]

I dont know of any FF SF cereals or pancakes or waffles in the store

Or would I have to make these at home with splenda or something?

 

[greekblondechic]

I was trying to find my way around it

 

[greekblondechic]

I'm so excited..and I just cant hide it
