Yumm, yours looks good.

My menu is a little out of my control today. My roommate is making dinner for us today and even though it's healthy, it's probably not CORE.

Here goes:

Breakfast/Brunch:

Egg
Canadian Bacon
Coffee no sugar

Lunch:

Just snacking due to late breakfast: Clementines and an apple

Dinner:

Chicken Vegetable Alfredo
Ingredients: chicken, broccoli, carrots, onion, garlic, ff milk, ff sour cream, whole wheat pasta, and ww flour
Is this CORE if all the ingredients are?

And a piece of fresh bread 2
diet coke

Yeah! 2nd day on CORE

16/35pts

Sounds like a good Core day to me! The bread is the only thing that's not but you have your 35 WPAs to use, so use them!

Daisys - Welcome! Come chat with us on the Core Support board! I know you didn't ask but you didn't have any starch at all. Aren't you hungry? You need some starch for balance.

Breakfast: Farina made with skim milk

Lunch: Huge green salad (tomato, cukes, chicken breast, FF cheddar cheese, avocado) with FF Honey Dijon Dressing; fresh fruit cup; Hot decaf tea black

Snack: Banana, Splenda, Skim milk smoothie

Dinner: Chipotle Chicken with Rice (Core recipe)

French Vanilla Tea

Lunch: Mediterranean Chicken Salad (chopped chicken breast, sundried tomatoes, celery, onion, ff sour cream, ff feta, black olives, dijon mustard, lemon juice & balsamic vinegar) on a bed of greens

Snack: Grapefruit or Apple (was supposed to have both; one as mid-morning snack and other as afternoon, but time got away from me)

Talking Tuesday Tummyfillings

Hey Vickie - thanks - yes trying to do the water thing - I am slowly ramping up the ounces - yesterday about 40 oz of water along with other "liquids"....today about 50 ounces??

Tuesday:

Breakfast:
ff sf yogurt
decaf w/light cream
1 packet instant plain oatmeal w/1tbsp flaxmeal and some brown sugar twin

Lunch:
chicken breast
brocolli
kasha w/sauteed onions & mushrooms
apple

Later:
decaf non fat cappucino
1 tsp peanut butter (1)

Dinner
Bagel (5)
egg salad (2 hb eggs, ff mayo, 1 green onion)
big handful of grape tomatoes!
cucumber slices
2 dill pickles
diet pepsi

Had a "ladies meeting" to go to which usually has BIG DESSERTS/FOOD all over the place.

What I had: 3 pecans, 1 fig, about 6 red grapes and a cup of green tea

What I did not have: the cookies, the big honking CHOCOLATE DANISH RING with chocolate oozing out covered in white icing sugar, and sprinkled w/almonds, the dried fruit, the jelly beans.

But to be quite honest while driving home I realized I just ate the stuff "cuz it was there"...was not supremely hungry at the time - just saw everyone else eating and so I joined in - need to RETRAIN THE BRAIN not to eat unless I require nourishment.

All in all, not a bad day!

Froufy

P.S. Don't worry - I have counted it all using those FABULOUS extra points we get every week!!!

Hey glad I found you guys!!
Here is my day I talked of our Core Support....
B-oatmeal, unsweetened applesauce
Snack - 1 Cup of Grapes....yes fruit!!!!!
L-chicken breast, mixed vegetables
afterwork-my core soup, barley, ff chicken broth and mixed vegs
D-turkey burger, 1/2 baked potato
8pm snack-didn't have the smoothie, didn't feel like messing the blender :-)
instead I had 3/4 cup of cous cous....
so what do you think of my first total core day....not too bad, huh....
I drank all my water....I don't have a problem with that, thank goodness. I just gobble it down while working.....2 liter and then one when I get in and flavored water at work with Lunch.
and I had my coffee with my skim plus during the day.
You all are giving me great idea....I still have to do those egg quiches' sounds sooo good.
