Snack: watermelon. Late afternoon: coffee with 1/4 c. skim milk.
Lean ground beef, very small bit of rice, onions, parsley (shaped into elongated meat balls), cooked in the "broth" of canned tomatoes, 1 can of water added, and 1 small can of Campbell's tomato soup. Added to that, sliced fresh mushrooms and sliced fresh cabbage. Basically, "unstuffed" cabbage. Served over 1 cup cooked Ronzoni Smart Pasta.
Later I may have a 1/2 banana with 2 teaspoons of peanut butter--but I'm not sure.
Today, I did not dually calculate the P+ values vs. calories. For 2 and a half weeks the P+ calculations were always below 29 points--and without using Weekly or Activity points. I'm under my calorie target of 1200 today, so I should eat a bit more. At the moment tho, I'm not hungry.
Edited to add: has some fresh salsa and 14 multi grain chips with flax seed and sea salt - felt like a cheat....but it wasn't

Well my first day having "other" foods and the only thing I chose was a drink at Einsteins bagel... BUT. Holy crap! I had no idea it would be so many points... and I immediately felt sick and had a headache after having it. Too much sugar and dairy all at once I am guessing.
I ate clean the rest of the day and went to the gym to make up for it:
Anytime
1 large banana(s) 0
1 serving(s) einstein blended mocha - 18 ounce 17
Subtotal 17
Food PointsPlus values total used 45
Food PointsPlus values remaining -16 (33 weeklies remaining)
Activity
60 min Body Pump - Activity I created 4
30 min spin, mod - Activity I created 3
30 min Spin - high - Activity I created 7
Activity PointsPlus values earned 14
patchy, good lord, 18 pts for the mocha! And you're right everytimes I eat something I'm not used to eat anymore, I feel so WEIRD (including tummy pain and everything that comes with it). I think it's a clear way our body is telling us that he doesn't like that kind of diet anymore LOL
