  • Yesterday's plan went to pot almost as soon as I posted it. It was hot, so I went swimming instead of to the gym. I forgot to take the ground beef out of the freezer so I couldn't make the tamale pie. But luckily I had some chicken sausage in the freezer which could be defrosted quickly, so I managed to stay in my calorie range for the day anyway.

    The ground beef is out and defrosting on the counter, so today should go according to plan:
    B - Friday is oatmeal day! 1 cup oatmeal with vanilla, cinnamon, blueberries, and soy milk.
    S - Tea with soy milk and spenda, melon
    L - Gardenburger with soy cheese (SO annoyingly scarfed down all the Laughing Cow wedges) on multi-grain bread with a fresh tomato
    S - nutrition bar
    S - fruit, veggies, popcorn, or nuts (bummer, I'm out of yogurt)
    D - Tamale pie with a green salad
    S - low cal pudding

    Exercise: one hour with trainer

    - Barbara
  • Being the small-town, unworldly Yankee I am, I have to ask...what is Caprese?
  • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insalata_Caprese
    I actually had that last week and didnt know it, it didnt have the cheese in it but it was sooo good!
