    Dolly, fish & veggies sounds awesome right now.

    As for me I've been too busy to eat today. I will try something in the next hour here.

    2 sticks string cheese
    1 serving black grapes
    1 cup white rice
    1-2 tsp's olive oil
    a few sprinkles spinach herb seasoning

    1/4 frozen raspberries

    2 cups skim milk

    1/2 cup pea & mayo salad

    Just not hungry today.
  • I ended up adjusting Monday's menu slightly--didn't have any pineapple, but had some yeallow and green beans cooked in macadamia nut oil, crushed garlic, chopped onion, basil, Mrs. Dash, and lemon juice with the ham for dinner.

    Tuesday's plan:
    • reduced-sugar instant oatmeal
    • frozen dinner (something that's only meat and veggies, usually around 250 cals--maybe I'll try one of the new South Beach meals I bought this weekend)
    • turkey sausage
    • sandwich--lean turkey, ham, Swiss cheese, honey dijon mustard, and ff mayo on 100% whole wheat bread
  • 1 cup real coffee (sorry, Dr Torres)
