    s. Celery with Laughing Cow Lite

    L. Flat wrap pizza, with sauce, pepperoni, and cheese...yum-O, but sauce was prego which may be too high in sugar.

    s. Celery, laughing cow lite

    D. Spring Greens with a Turkey Burger, some mayo, and Balsamic and Evoo dressing -- Oh and a glass of really good red wine.

    s. Opted out of the sugar free - fat free chocolate pudding with fat free whipped cream. I took a finger full and then realized that I didn't need to automatically have a pudding for dessert. I am looking for an excuse to eat some, wanna give me one? LOL
    I think that my glass of wine sort of counted in a way. Calling it a night for eating at 9 PM -- besides, I blew it and didn't exercise again. sigh. Tomorrow, one of my best friends is flying in from Chicago with her DH and DD, so I am making them dinner. I am promising to try to behave, but we really like to drink wine together! LOL. Maybe they wont want to have a bottle since they have to drive to Leesburg for the hotel. I am planning on looking up the SB friendly recipes and appetizers for the dinner menu. I'll let you know how it goes!
