Lori, Sinead, Debby, Cynthia, and Karen, thank you so much for the positive comments and the encouragement

It really made me feel better about my progress after having read the comments from all of you!

I've done my cooking for the next few days. I think I made a mistake last week with "overcooking" and making too much of the same dishes. I was bored to tears with the chili and stir fry by the end of the week. This time I've made enough food for about the next four days (with the exception of pancakes because I am happy to eat them every single day).

So, for the next few days I will be eating-

Protein Pancakes w/ Strawberries and Flax Seed Oil

Pumpkin/Leek/Tofu Soup - I got the recipe from my "Eat Clean" cookbook

Eggplant Lasagna- This is the recipe Shari posted in the challenge thread. It is awesome. If you have not already tried it you should!

Tofu and Strawberry Puree- I had leftover tofu from the soup recipe, so I stuck it in my food processor with strawberries, stevia, and sugar-free syrup

Cucumber and Apple Salad- Mix of cucumber, apple, greek yogurt, and lemon juice.

I thought I would post a few of my favorite food product staples. These are things I use on a frequent basis and that have helped me with dealing with having to maintain a deficit

Davinci Sugar Free Syrup

I love it. I put it in my coffee, tea, yogurt, etc. I get it at Walmart and it's about $5.60 for a large bottle.

NOW! Stevia French Vanilla

I actually found this yesterday at Vitamin Cottage. I've been using the stevia balance for a little while, but I really like this stuff a lot. It has a milder sweetness that regular stevia with a bit of a vanilla taste included.

Zhena's Gypsey Tea- Coconut Chai

Very tasty, especially mixed with the previous two.

Unsweetened Almond Milk (Vanilla)

This stuff is great as long as you use some type of sweetener with it. I use it in my coffee and protein shakes very frequently. Only 40 calories for an entire cup of the stuff!
