  • okay, here goes. i'll have to complete it and edit it later, but here's what i'm thinking now.

    b--scrambled egg, canadian bacon, polenta cakes, sf jam
    l--lo lasagna, lettuce/tomato salad/ff ranch, & 2 chocolate muffin tops made with the homemade granola--2 pts!!!
    s--sf/ff pudding with core granola (did you see the recipe i posted today?)
    d--polenta cakes, corn on the cob, chili beans, and baked potato
    s--fruit salad
  • OK, here's my plan.

    b: (at home), malt o meal, banana, milk
    l: (on the road), fast food salad w/grilled chicken, apple, milk (if they have skim)
    s: 100 calorie cracker packet, light string cheese (3 pts)
    d: ?? I'm hoping we'll go to a place where I can get chicken or steak, a salad, and diet soda?? If not, maybe Subway, where I can get a wrap and count points.
    s: 94% ff popcorn (if there's a microwave available)

    And I'm going to put Wednesday's menu here, since I won't be near a computer then.

    b: oatmeal, banana
    l: if we have fast food again, I guess a salad. Maybe I'll spend points on grilled chicken sandwich w/no mayo, apple, milk if they have skim
    s: 100 calorie cracker packet, light string cheese (3 pts)
    d: I'm hoping to be able to eat at home. If not, I'll have my other baggie of oatmeal to tide me over until we get home.

    How's it look?
