Haha, I thought I was the only one who wrote down meals all the time
I don't dare post what I ate this weekend, because I didn't adhere to my diet very well. (It was delicious, though... enjoying every now and then is important too, isn't it?)
I can post what I ate today though.
Breakfast:
none (I slept through my alarm so I had no time for it.
Snacks:
2 x chocolate milk from the automaton at work
Lunch:
2 x wheat bread with low-fat cumin cheese
2 x wheat bread with cream cheese
1 x mandarin
Evening
Bulgur with stir-fried cabbage, peas, snap-peas and an egg. (It looked so pretty, I wanted to take a picture of it! But I do not have a camera.)
Low-fat yoghurt with a kiwi

Aww I would tell you about the rice bowl but I really don't know. I get it from the burrito place on campus. I'm sure any sort of Mexican or Spanish rice will due.. I wonder if Zataran's makes any?

Today:
Breakfast:
Bowl of low-fat yoghurt with muesli and a teensy little bit of sugar.
Lunch:
2 x bread roll with diet margarin and cheese - one whole-grain, one white.
Snacks
1 x automaton chocolate milk
10 grapes
Dinner:
Was supposed to be wraps with hummus and salad. I made the hummus, but cut my finger quite badly on the blender. And I had a ****ty day overall. So I decided to go for the lentil-spinach curry I still had in the freezer. Less work but equally healthy. I'll add some noodles and an egg. And some yoghurt with grapes after.
Also I went on a shopping spree in my local Moroccan food shop because my day was ****ty. This is what I bought:
-loads of garlic
-a bunch of fresh coriander
-tomato's
-onions
-grapes
-canned chickpeas
-a jar of tahin
-dried blueberries (for in my yoghurt - quite expensive but if this will cut sugar out of my diet completely it is worth it. I am unable to eat yoghurt with nothing.)
-dried mung beans (for that sprouted mung bean salad I want to try).
Healthy shopping sprees - they do exist!

I normally eat the same things on a daily basis. Things may change here and there, but things I consume almost daily are:
Danon Shillouette Yogurt - it's super low fat, and incredibly yummy. I love cherry, peach, strawberry banana, vanilla.... the list could go on and on, they have some wonderful flavours. I eat this yogurt religiously everyday.
Apples
Bananas
1 peice of multigrain bread, cut into 2 slices, with peanut butter and honey on top.
A snack I've recently become fond of is apple slices with cheddar cheese. Yum.
Cottage cheese with frozen blueberries mixed in (defrosted obviously)
veggie burgers (Lick's brand, not sure if they sell them in the States)- I eat these often, usually once a week. On a whole wheat bun.
steamed cauliflower and brocolli with grated parmasean cheese on top.
