I have decided to eat my cereal in the evening because I love it and that is when I am most hungry. The mornings I can get by with a shake. I also eat many times a day - small portions. Best for diabetics - which I am not now, (thank you Jesus) but it runs in my family.

Not the most healthy looking menu today, but all with in calories and yummy food.

Double serving bowl of Fibre One with peach slices for breakfast.

I made pasta primavera for a group of friends for lunch. The meat eaters got marinated chicken with theirs. The chicken version was about 500 calories. It was perfect, all the veggies were just a little crisp without being underdone. I used a teaspoon of olive oil for 6 people , and the rest of the sauce was veggie broth. Whole wheat spaghetti from Costco that is only 190 calories per 2oz dry serving which is like 30 less than most. Also had LOTS of veggies and herbs. It went over well. One of them brought homemade fresh mozzarella and Italian bread. I had some of that with tomato and Basil and a little balsamic even if it put me over my usual 600 meal cap, it was worth it and didn't kill my calories for the day.

Bannana snack.

For dinner we had hot dog sammiches. 2 FF ball park dogs, one whole wheat slice of bread and spicy mustard for 175 calories each. I had one, DH had 2.

I'll probably have an apple or another peach for dessert in about an hour.
