Not gonna lie, I pretty much have the same thing everyday for breakfast and same thing for dinner (with a few variations on the type of fruit, type of yogurt, and type of cereal/oatmeal). Due to my schedule I usually don't eat dinner until late at night (like 9ish) and I don't feel like cooking or eating something too heavy that late.

End of March goal = 140! That was my St. Patrick's Day goal, but I doubt I'll lose 3 pounds overnight. Nevertheless, I can't complain about any losses.

What I'm doing is splitting my weekly points into the 7 days, so I get my 20 daily points plus 5 ponts to make 25 points per day. Then I add in my activity points for the day (no more than one or two because of my knee injury). So I'm eating between 26 and 27 points per day. I thought my knee was getting better, but I just tried to drive for the first time in two months and my knee was killing me! So the gist of my exercise is what I do in physical therapy.

Monday:

1/2 cup hazelnut milk (1 pt.)
1 cup grapes (1 pt.)
Amy's Enchilada Whole meal (7 pts.)
organic vegan dark chocolate (5 pts.)
More grapes! (2 pts.)
vegan brown rice sushi (6 pts.)
sesame tofu (2 pts.)
berries (0 pts.)

TOTAL = 24 pts.

So this sounds like a good thing!

I have 31 points a day (Not including weekly or activity points) I try not to use my weekly points, as it's hard enough trying to get to 31 everyday! So I need to make sure I eat breakfast!! AND drink my water!

I've eaten incredibly lightly today because of my weigh in this afternoon. I'm going to have Subway for dinner though, So thats at least 5 points for the sandwich if i get veggie, but I should probably have turkey to get in some protien. No matter what I have a lot of points left over for the day, so I need to make sure that I use them up!

St. Patrick's Day--we had a catered work party today, so my eating is a little less nutritious than normal, but within my points.

Tuesday:

vegan whole grain toast (4 pts.)
potato chips (4 pts.)
fruit bowl (1 pt.)
tomato basil baguette (8 pts.)
