Monday 2/27
I have oatmeal with frozen blueberries almost everyday for breakfast. I micro the oatmeal and then pour in the blueberries to cool it down fast. I like oatmeal cooked on the stove better, but don't always have time. I also keep 2 apples with me for snacks each day - or a tub of fresh berries.
At lunch I eat a low-cal soup with 5 crackers or I have salad topped with some sort of protein (tofu/chicken/shrimp).
If I think about it I try to do high protien or whole grain snacks because they keep me full longer.
Today so far I have had:
oatmeal = 2
Blueberries = 1
Creamer for my coffee = 1
Latte (12 oz, nonfat) = 2
Salad = 0
cheese on salad = 2
dressing on salad = 1
Apple = 1
snack (bean soup) = 2
Chicken Fajitas = 13
3 points over for the day (I am trying for 22)

Plus I have a mid-morning snack and a mid-afternoon snack, usually consisting of pieces of fruit, 1/2c of yogurt, or 5 lf triscuits with some cheese. (TOTAL 2 or 3 points)
That's all pretty standard, I usually get to dinnertime having used 10 or 11 points of my 24.
Tonight for dinner I had:
whole wheat 12" tortilla wrap (3pts)
1/2 chicken breast (2pts)
assorted veggies (red pepper, onion, mushroom, tomato, spinach) (0pts)

Before bed I usually have 3c light popcorn, or a couple 1pt cookies I make. I need something 1hr before I go to bed or I have trouble getting up in the morning.

I'll post yesterday since today's still in progress:
b: oatmeal w/ dried cranberries (4pts)
s1: 2 homemade cookies (2pts)
l: 1/2c carrots, 2 flatbreads, 1/4c hummus, 1/4c cottage cheese, apple (5pts)
s2: banana and 1/2 tbsp pnut butter (3pts)
d: 1/2c brown rice and 1c lentil stew (red lentils, onion, celery, ground turkey) (7pts)
s3: pear crumble: pear, 1 tbsp light margerine, 1/3c oatmeal + ww flour mixture, tbsp walnuts (6pts)
TOTAL 27pts... 3 FP used (really didn't need that pnut butter with the banana!!)
Today's not off to a great start... FH and I went out for breakfast, you know what that means: fried potatoes! Let's try to break it down:
2 pieces of brown toast (3pts -- they were small)
1 egg (2pts)
2 slices bacon (2 pts)
1c homefries (5 pts)
assorted oils used in cooking which I don't know about (2pts at least)
I'm guessing the total for my breakfast was 14 points... That's an estimate. Meaning I have 10 left for the rest of the day...... Yikes! I think I can do it, or at least come close. Here's the plan for the rest of the day:
lunch: standard hummus, carrots, 1 flatbread, cottage cheese, fruit (4pts)
dinner: homemade chicken and black bean soup -- 3pts/2c and homemade 2pt dinner roll (5pts)
I'll need at least one snack, so I'll make it a 1pt snack... Then anything else I eat will be FP. Weigh-in is tomorrow so I better drink off all that sodium from breakfast.... plus it's TOM, i'm not terribly optimistic about WI!!

It has sunk in that I used most of my extra points for the week yesterday. Arggghh.
I have another party tonight, but it is a wine tasting and I definately do not want to taste any more wine. I would skip it, but a good friend is throwing it and I have missed her last several parties.
So far today:
apple (2)
latte (2)
2% milk carton (3)
asian chicken salad (7)

All I meant by "drinking off the sodium" is that there was a lot of salt in my breakfast, and salt makes you retain water... And the only cure for that is to drink more water to flush it out of your system! No magic cures here
