Saturday March 5

B - 2 scrambled eggs, broccoli, tons of salsa, wrapped in a 50 calorie La Tortilla factory tortilla

L - Chipotle - chicken bol, no beans. Tons of lettuce, 2 scoops pico.

S - tall non fat latte

D - going to a friend's. She says she is making healthy lasagna. I am bringing salad. I plan to fill my plate with salad and have a small square of lasagna. Will try to stay away from the wine and the bread.

*edit for dinner* okay, did pretty well, but not perfect. I did put a ton of healthy salad on my plate and had a small square of lasagna. She made bacon wrapped figs for an appetizer and I had 4. I also had a small glass of red wine. The husband works in the food industry, and for dessert they had those little mini desserts you get at PF Changes (100-220 calories) I had one. I didn't eat any bread! Considering my total calories for the day, it was a maintenance day, at least.
