Losing Weight with Starscream

12stones · 02-06-2009, 06:34 AM

No loss for me this week. Still at 205, but I ain't complainin'. Here's a good recipe for my fellow low-carbers (or if you just like a good chili):

Texas Chili (modified from 6 Ingredients or Less: Low Carb Cooking):

2 lbs lean ground beef
1 cup chopped onions
2 small green peppers chopped
1 28oz can diced tomatoes
1 small can diced green chilis
1 1/2 tbsp chili powder
2 tsp salt

Brown ground beef and onions; drain. Place in slow cooker along with remaining ingrediants. Cover; cook on LOW 4 to 5 hours.

Let me tell you, this is some good stuff right here. Made enough to last me all week, throw on some reduced-fat cheddar and you gots a good meal.

I may have to give this recipe a try since I am in need of another stash of chili. Think I will probably try it with ground turkey to make it even better for me. Ive been slipping lately and hit up to my 'panic' weight so I have jumped back into dieting mode

You mean in WW? It depends on your starting weight. I can't remember the ranges right now.

Good job. If you add the exercise in, you'll see greater losses in the long run.

I used 96/4 lean ground beef and there was very, very little fat. It'll probably be good with ground turkey too.

Happy eating!

Weigh-in is tomorrow. I feel that I ate a lot over the weekend, but probably not as bad as I think I did. Nonetheless I'm gonna cheat and take a system cleansing pill for the weigh-in tomorrow. I weighed in this morning and am still at 247. I was at 245 twice this week, but the official weigh-in is always on Mondays for me. I've not done any exercise this week whatsoever, except walk one mile on Tuesday. Gonna pull one hour of exercise tonight before bed. Hopefully I'll be down at least one pound for the week.
