I have never posted on this thread before...so here goes lol
Before i post my food. I just wanted to mention, I am not doing any particular "diet". I am basically just watching my portion sizes and making better food choices. i have also quit drinking soda's going on 15 days now YEAHHHH...
ok..here is what I ate today...
Breakfast...Special K w/ strawberries + 1% milk, 1 medium banana
morning Snack...didn't have one
Lunch...Left over taco salad from last night. (I made the taco meat with 93% lean ground beef) I crunched up 1 "Old El Paso" taco shell and threw it in my bowl, and put about 1/4 cup of left over taco meat in there from last night and sprinkled a little chedder cheese on it and threw in some shredded lettuce and tomato and added a teaspoon of Knudsen sour cream on top.
Snack....2 cups of air-popped pop corn (sprayed a little "I can't believe it's not butter" spray on it) and 1 medium necterine
Dinner....3 oz Tuna fish w/ tbsp of kraft mayo added on 2 slices of whole wheat bread (toasted)
7 medium black olives.
I don't count carbs or calories or thing, but think I did pretty good.

Wow, that's embarrasing to write. I didn't eat a single vegetable all day. At least I got plenty of protein.
last night
* 1 'nerds rope'- the horror. the sugar.
* 12 oz diet dr pepper
* 2 -3 pieces chocolate 'rock candy' (kinda like an m&m. looks like a little rock)
* 1 cup 'enchilada innards' (leftover rice, etc that i didn't have another tortilla for)

S - cheese string
D - sea weed salad, yellow tail, salmon sashimi
