I worked like crazy without break for ChildFind at the mall today - fingerprinting & photographing babies to 12 yr olds for their parents. WHEW! Three of us were kept very busy the whole time - thank you to Sue & RCMP Auxilliary Kevin.
Not a great eating plan but tomorrow is always another day.

SNACKS Actually shown as part of Dinner because they were eaten while I was preparing dinner.
Today breakfast & Lunch as on Phase 1, Supper - a yummy Indian style dinner with fresh cilantro & chipotle chili flavoured buffalo burger patties (home made), stir fried veggies topped by a bit of Bombay potato for saucy flavour, along with a home made cucumber & dried mint raita.
Thinking of trying the WF Strawberry Spread ('jam') melted in a sweet & sour sauce along with fresh pineapple, and apple cider vinegar over something, I'm not sure what yet. Will let all know how it turned out when I test drive it.
Thanks for sharing these Liana. I'm having some struggles sorting out the right snacks.
My daily intake is keeping me maintaining but I'm feeling hungry more often (I've added some exercise) so I'm thinking I need to up the calories a little bit.
Usually a morning snack is the 100 calorie pack of almonds. Afternoon is an IP bar (suppose I need to look into alternatives eventually but I find them so filling). Would like to have a couple more snack options in the mix. My clinic doesn't reco cheese sticks - says they don't really fill you up tho I could try for myself. Or maybe I could try cottage cheese with a little fruit? Just wondering if that would be too much carb wise...

Anyone have suggestions?
Cheese sticks were bought for cheap (99 cents an 8 pak) and I know they aren't the best 'cheese' but they are prepackaged in a proper serving size and my weakness is serving myself larger hunks of good cheeses - so this prevents me from getting carried away with too many portions at my afternoon snack time.
Afternoon is my toughest time of day for wanting that something - cheese sticks are gone now anyhow, lol. Probably back to 0% Greek yogourt with stevia & pure vanilla so that I can enjoy my nuts at a higher fat meal (usually lunch or in my breakfast cereal or yogourt). If I'm patient enough I will have a stalk of celery with 1/2 WF pb & 1/2 real pb. Cottage cheese with a bit of fresh fruit (esp berries - very low in carbs relatively) is nummy. If you like a heftier snack option: chunks of turkey/chicken breast dipped in a fresh salsa or at least a bottled one with no sugars added (real salsa) is very satisfying and gets you protein & sparky flavour. This takes a bit of prep though, cooking extra breast when BBQing or broiling/roasting. You can always chunk it up and throw it in the freezer after. Good for chicken caesar salad at lunch too.
hmmm.... off to get myself some celery with mixed pb's now... mid AM snack
Up a pound on my scale this AM... but TOM coming - which also explains why I hit the fromagerie and bought an 800g chunk of Grana Padano Parmesan plus some Danish Esrom cheese. And ate 4 servings at dinner...
Higher carb meal at lunch today and higher fat meal at dinner.

Yeah, cheese and PB... Both items I like a little too much so having proper portions is key.
I have yogurt for breakfast most mornings so I hadn't thought of that as a snack but that or cottage cheese with a little fruit might work.
After the cheesiness of the 23rd - I figured it was time to smarten up a bit before things got out of hand. I had my hubby shave his own Parmesan over his pumpkin ravioli at lunch because I knew if I handled it at all, I was a goner.
