L: I am going to my sister's wedding/couples' shower, and my goal is to not touch any bars or desserts. They're serving sandwiches, salad, veggies, fruit ... my goal is to (for once in my life) pass on the "special occasion food". I'm going to focus on taking pictures and communicating with people, instead of focusing on the food. My weigh-in on Monday is going to stink as it is (see last night's menu, ugh). Edit: Gah! I didn't do it, at all! The first plate was perfect, but I grabbed a smaller "dessert" plate and grazed on junk throughout the party. Oh well, I guess I'm not ready to have a willpower that is strong-as-iron at parties.
D: didn't need it

nop no recipe persay just make sure you put in the fruit first then the greens I really like it with spinich it'as a really great way to get you greens and your body uses the greens more quicker and uses more of the good stuff.
Breakfast instant oat meal with two veggy link sausages
lunch avicado, soy cheese, and cucumber sandwich some soda
dinner celery sticks with hummus and some with this garlic tofu spread and water mellon.
breakfast a bagel
lunch blended salad with blue berries, manderen oranges, cucumber and mixed greens oh and 1/2 cup of yougurt.
dinner tofu noodles with brocoliein cheese sause and veggy chilie also some tofu derset thingy
B: 1c zucchini + 2c coffee w/1% milk (strange bfast, but I knew there'd not be enough vegetables at the event)
L: (event food) 1 ham sandwich + 1 egg-salad sandwich + 1c fruit salad + a few tablespoons of a billion different pasta-based salads + a few cookies. I stayed within the one-plate guideline, though! (see below) There weren't many vegetables there, and I wish I would have brought some instead of the mixed fruit salad.
D: 1c tuna casserole + 1oz cheese + 1.5c zucchini w/2t butter
S: 1 h-b egg + crackers, cheese, summer sausage
E: I might get around to identifying a free-weight and stability-ball routine today.
I got some good tips from a fellow 3FC person about how to handle a buffet, open house, pot luck, etc. She suggested that at a buffet, select ONE plate of small bites of everything you like that's not the healthiest. Then have as much as you want of salad, vegetables, etc.
