Daily Planning Tuesday, Feb 19th

  • What are you all eating?

    bfast - kashi go lean and blue berries, latte
    s- 2 cutie tangerines
    l - I ate a big spinach salad with tomatoes, fennel root etc and a little blue cheese and olives! mmmmm i think it may have been 3 servings of veggies!
    d- tuna melt, apple slices, tangerine

    feedback welcome... ive been working on getting in my fruits and veggies! easier said than done


    ps how do you all like the daily thread versus weekly? I noticed there wasn't a weekly thread for this week so i thought i'd go ahead and do some daily threads... but of course if the vote is for weekly thats fine too!
  • Daily or Weekly...doesn't matter to me.

    ready - now little lady, where are all your veggies??? I see lots of yummy healthy fruit, but only salad as a veggie. Could you maybe add carrot sticks, green pepper slices or cucumber slices instead of the apple AND tangerine for dinner. Just a thought...

    Tuesday - 2/19

    B - kashi go lean cereal, skim milk
    L - LC Meal, salad, apple
    S - yogurt
    D - bbq chicken pizza bread, salad, broc/cali veggie mix

  • I prefer weekly, personally, because sometimes I do 2 days at once or I want to go edit a previous day. But that's me.

    S: oatmeal packet (2)
    L: leftover beans and turnip greens (4), cornbread (3), apple (2)

    I have been so busy at school that I only eat like half my lunch which creates this problem where I need to eat a bunch at night. Blah, maybe I should add some more for breakfast.
