Its TTOM, I had a horrible day on very little sleep, and will have a stressful morning tomorrow, but after that I can colapse. I got upset at Hubby but didn't run to the kitchen to console myself with food. I count that a victory!
Hi everyone! I hope you all are having a fabulous day. It's almost Friday! My day has been quite hectic; out of the office for meetings all morning! I barely had a chance to eat my breakfast but I haven't had coffee all day. Grrrrrrr!

No coffee! Now that's bad! That's the main reason I get up in the morning (besides work - gotta have money to buy coffee )

Diana, how are those 550 calorie meals from Applebees, I've been thinking about trying them out?
Welcome Beckie!!
Pengiun, that salsa fish sounds really good, I think I will have to make that for dinner one night soon!
Well, TOM came today so I was super hungry all day. I felt like I just wanted to eat everything in sight. Ugh I hate those days. My eating wasn't great today but it definately wasn't as bad as it could've been and I didn't go over my calories too bad. I've been busy all day too and am just now getting a chance to post but here's what today looked like:

I think they are great. It's really nice to be able to go out and just order a meal and eat the whole thing and not have to go nuts with figuring out calories, only being able to eat half the meal, or cut the calories in another meal because this one is too high. Does any of that sound familiar to you? I have had 2 of the meals, The Grilled Chicken with Island Rice and Asiago Peppercorn Steak. If I were to order the steak again, I would probably order it without the Asiago. It was good, but I'm just not a fan of Asiago. They are actually sending out coupons to get one of these meals for $5.50. That's what I did last night. It was a great buy. I paid full price for the Island Shrimp and it was well worth the price. There were 3 skewers of shrimp. Here's a link to their site and meals available. http://www.applebees.com/Menu_Under550.aspx
B Kashi with 2% milk, small coffee L Chipotle! Ordered a salad with: romaine lettuce, chicken, tomato salsa, corn salsa and vinaigrette dressing on the side (ate about 3/4 of it) S Banana D Turkey omelette (1 egg and 2 eggwhites) with tomato, green onion and lf cheese, mixed fruit on the side S Leaving calorie room for a couple glasses of red wine (going out with some friends later tonight)
