  • Quote: I think I'll post here a bit, trying to get back on track after the 3-day Halloween Fiasco.

    Wednesday November 1st

    Breakfast: Low-sugar oatmeal, sugar-free yogurt
    Morning snacks: Carrots w/ fatfree ranch dip, sugar-free Jello, 1oz 2% sharp cheddar cheese
    Lunch: Amy's teriyaki tofu bowl
    Afternoon snack: 100 Grand candy bar
    Dinner: Wendy's Chicken BLT salad with croutons and low fat honey mustard dressing, and a Kozy Shack no-sugar-added chocolate pudding cup

    That, and 40 minutes on the exercise bike, and 15 minutes lifting weight.

    I do WW Flex plans, so the food points were 29.5.
    That sounds yummy! Do you like it? I sometimes make my own teriyaki tofu, but I'm sure Amy's is better than mine!!
  • HarpoChicoGroucho, Amy's Teriyaki Tofu Bowl is my current favorite frozen meal. I go through fads, but that one and the Mexican casserole are my current faves. Of course, the teriyaki tofu bowl is something near 300 calories, while the Mexican casserole is around 450. My lament is that they're so expensive here, because they're organic and a small distribution line. But I have that brand a lot like... today again.

    Thursday, November 2nd
    Breakfast: Heaping bowl of Smart Start cereal with enough vanilla soymilk to wet it
    Snack: Some strawberries (1/2 a pint)
    Lunch: Amy's mattar paneer meal, and a Smart Ones cookie dough ice cream
    Snack: Some grapes (less than a cup)
    Dinner: Cajun grilled salmon (ate half, about 4 oz), with broccoli in a light cheese sauce (Green Giant is a great chef!), 3 oz of Alexia's Olive Oil & Parmesan & Roasted Garlic Potato Wedges (so good, 3 oz is satisfying!), and a mixed green salad with a bit of feta cheese, some tomatoes and other veggies, and light raspberry vinegarette dressing -- whew!!

    Exercise: 30 minutes on the exercise bike (watching Biggest Loser), and a 15 minute walk during my lunch break

    Edited to add the whole bag of butter popcorn I microwaved and ate near midnight, while I was working on my Nanowrimo novel.

  • So, I can feel That Mood, and am attempting to distract myself and find some way to reward myself other than food. Had one candy bar for snack and that nearly set me off so... I opened up a new yoga DVD I got, now that the DVD player works, but I lasted about 20 minutes before I got bored. Maybe a hot bath...

    Lunch: South Beach frozen dinner (Italian chicken parmesan), and a Smart Ones cookie dough ice cream sundae
    Snack: Hummus sandwich on half a big whole wheat pita, with a bit of feta cheese and tons of veggies. And... that 100 Grand Bar.
    Dinner: Subway 6" turkey sub on white, with some light mayo, and a banana

    Hopefully I won't add to it, it's my 30 WW points so probably 1400-1600 calories.

    Exercise: 30 minutes on the exercise bike. 20 minutes weight lifting. 20-25 minutes of yoga (when I got bored).

    Edited to add Argh! A snack pack of jelly bellies! 160 calories! Luckily nothing else 'good' is around, I'd go to sleep now if I could, sigh.
  • I ate out every single meal. And fast food. Not bad choices, just expensive. I refuse to cook! I am liberated!

    Ahem.
