Trolls aren't too bad.. generally.. most of them anyway... I kow I'm going
against the sacred "Do not feed the trolls" but.. they are the biggest
mouths out here and I hate talking to myself.. ;op
One thing that bugs me, going back to nutrition, is that I'm allergic to
nuts (not all of them but some) so it makes it hard to get proteins in for
snacks.. can't really grill me a chicken breast for an afternoon snack..
does that make sense?
At WW the attention is generally focused on veggies a lot and less on
proteins (though it's slowly changing). I'm not an Atkin fan, but I do
believe that I need a little more proteins if only to cut the munchies..
Cooking and planning and stuff isn't much of an issue as I work cut shifts
(for WW) and have lots of free time in my day. Work in slots of 3 hours,
then 3 off, then 3 at work again.. I get home late but have lots of work out
time and shopping time (I got to work out more so I shop less, I'm broke
heheh) and cooking time during the day.

The outside edges of your local supermarket.
I just got back from shopping. I bought fruit, vegetables, meat &
dairy. We eat grilled or broiled meat, steamed vegetables, boiled
previously-frozen vegetables, brown basmati rice and sometimes potatoes
or winter squash.
The vegetables vary, but I usually will steam up a big basket of brussel
sprouts, cauliflower & broccoli together (and eat the leftovers the next
day.)
The meats vary, but I'll often spice it with Season All or marinate it
in a ziplock bag with some sort of pre-mixed marinade like Chipolte
Pepper or Sesame Ginger. We'll eat fish, pork loin, chicken breast, ham
or beef steak and occasionally omelots. (I've got half a lamb in the
freezer but it's too fatty to recommend for weight loss.)
For a snack we'll have nuts, or a Balance Bar or a piece of fruit &
peanut butter. Today I made smoothies with banana, frozen blueberries,
skim milk & Trader Joe's Chocolate Whey Protein powder (& some crushed
ice.)

For breakfast I'll have oatmeal & peanutbutter & protein powder cooked
in the microwave OR lox on one half of a 100% whole wheat bagel.
For lunch I might have skim-milk cottage cheese with fresh fruit, or a
hardboiled egg & some cheese & crackers, or a can of turkey vegetable
soup.

In the summer I usually have a chunk-o-meat on a salad, but I prefer
steamed veggies in the winter.
You might also want to try posting more over at alt.support.diet. I
suspect you'll fit in better over there. Right now you seem to just be
hanging with the trolls over here.
