Thursday plan
B - coffee w 1 T h&h, mini ww bagel, Morningstar Farms "sausage" patty, small whole egg + 2 egg whites, mid-morning banana
L - 3 oz bs chicken breast, 1.5 cups butternut squash, kale chips
S - 1 piece birthday cake. this one's homemade (ETA: crossed out "is going to be" and added "was") was worth the calories!
D - 2, 12-oz beers. salad made of pork loin (~3-4 oz), goat cheese (~1 oz), mushrooms, beets, romaine, and vinaigrette on the side (ate ~ 2 T). plus two handfuls of chips.
E - wogged the dog 5.5 miles! yeah! plus 20 min lunchtime walk.
B - muesli
S - hb egg, apple
L - sardines (did not like), 3 rusks (did not like), lots of salad
Two mugs of SF hot chocolate.
S - pnb + unmentionable item + cc with prawns
T - saumon en papillote (that is, your salmon in paper parcels - I ate half a fillet), pototoes the same way (ate one + half sweet potato), watercress and rocket. Small slice of lemon tart and double cream.
Not quite as bad as I thought but a bit off beam. I need to make sure all the items are bursting with nutritional value and delicious taste. I'm still rather off food and eating, to tell the truth. This was a serious bash at something nice for tea.

I did well last night - I never came back and posted my plan here yesterday with DSS getting expelled, but I did have a plan and stuck to it almost 100%. I did eat one loaded potato skin. Which I regret - 210 cals for that? But came in at 1846 for the day, and had a mini dessert for DH's birthday.
Thursday:
B - greek yogurt w/ honey and blueberries, venti non-fat misto from Starbucks
L - salad w/ grilled chicken
S - none so far
D - spaghetti with deviant DSS, blueberries
S - two girl scout cookies and a grapefruit

Way to stick to your plan despite stress, Shannon.
Last night was night 1 of 3 of food & drink temptations. I didn't do too badly, if I could just stay away from the chips. Even accounting for those calories, 2000 for the day plus exercise.
Friday plan
B - coffee w 1 T h&h, mini ww bagel, banana eggs made w small banana, 1 lg whole egg + 2 lg whites, cinnamon
L - bs chicken breast, butternut squash, spinach
S's - lf yogurt, orange, raw almonds, tea as desired
E - I WILL go do a NRLW workout bc I will not have time tomorrow. I hope to do stairmaster, too. Trying to fit a lot in today but this is priority!
D - (oh the dread). Enchiladas. Chips and several kinds of dip. Refried beans, beans and rice. Beer, wine, sangria. And my contribution, a grapefruit and avocado salad on spinach with citrus vinaigrette. Did I mention the chips? I am hoping for
I agree. I must change my lunches as too many raw veg don't seem to work any more. That's what happened today. And I had no time to think of tea. Sausages are defrosting for the others. I don't eat sausages so I'm not sure where that leaves me. We have a large squash.
Sausages did not defrost in time so they had spaghetti with salmon (leftover from last night), cc with prawns, cc, green salad (watercress and rocket). I had that without the spaghetti.
There will be kasha here this weekend, Jessica, as it's a staple for SO at lunchtime. He also knows umpteen Russian sayings about kasha. Such as "You can't spoil kasha with butter." Maybe not, but it could spoil my waistline!
Silver, I love kasha. I have a recipe that is very simple from the American Cancer Society New American Plate cookbook. Basically you cook the kasha in chicken broth (using egg, as usual for kasha), and meanwhile cook some chicken breast pieces and veggies (summer squash, bell pepper, etc), then stir them together and add a couple tablespoons of soy sauce and sliced almonds.
That kasha recipe sounds delicious, Jessica. I need to re-stock my (whole) grains.
For weekend re-cap, refer to the Spring Fling thread. I didn't eat with abandon, avoided any bars, and in fact was in such a mood I stayed at home and avoided most people. I ate more Mexican than I planned.
