Today it was:
B: oatmeal (made w/ milk)/honey/cinnamon, coffee w/ milk (9 pts) S: banana (0 pts) L: 2 eggs w/ emmental (similar to swiss cheese), 2 slices of whole wheat toast & butter, yoghurt with honey (18 pts.. OMG!) S: 2 clementines (0 pts) D: chicken salad, 1 wasa cracker & 1 laughing cow cheese, yoghurt with honey (9 pts) I ran out of dark chocolate, so I didn't get to savor my daily square, but oh well. Also, today was my first day at the gym and when I got home I was SO hungry! My baby was getting fussy, so I just made a quick lunch. I should have had only 1 piece of toast because 18 pts for lunch is way too much! I did go over today by 2 pts because I had another yoghurt with dinner, but I needed my sweet fix. Tomorrow is weigh in day! |
Breakfast: two slices rye bread with Quark, a slice of smoked chicken breast and jam and a cup of coffee with sugar and milk.
12 points Snack: Quark and Raspberries 1 Point Lunch: left-over Tunapasta with Cherry Tomatos 10 points snack: bell pepper sticks Dinner: Salmon Wraps with Guacamole 14 points Dessert: Yoghurt and Kiwi 2 points I'm currently really in love with Wraps for Dinner. They are so tasty and easily made. |
Swiss Weaknesses
Tanyanka,
If you don't mind me asking, in Switzerland, what are some extremely tasty, addicting dishes, that one would should avoid? (assuming one travels to Switzerland) Best, FatPanda |

Hint #2: Always drink a warm tea with it and NEVER EVER a cold beverage. The tea will help you to digest the cheese, a cold beverage will give you nasty tummy aches. I honestly wouldn't avoid anything, just eat it in moderation. But then I'm one who loves to discover new foods in foreign countries. :) Well... maybe avoid the typical Fastfood. :) Don't go to McDonalds or BurgerKing. It's too expensive here anyways. |
Breakfast: Carnation Instant Breakfast Drink (4 points)
Snack: Apple Peach Crisp Smoothie (5 points) Lunch: Leftover French Onion Soup (4 points) w/ side Caesar Salad (7 points) Dinner: Single Serving Kraft Mac and Cheese w/ broccoli side (11 points) Snack: WW Fudge Pop (3 points) I also plan to sneak in an 8oz glass of Arbor Mist Mango Strawberry Moscato (2 points)... I just don't know where yet, probably with the fudge bar. |
Tuesday's menu:
B: 1 1/2 cups All Bran Fruit & Fibres cereal w/ milk, milk w/ coffee (9 pts) S: Banana (0 pts) L: leftovers- butternut squash, beef & veggie soup, 1 wasa cracker w/ 1 laughing cow (12 pts) D: 2 veggie cakes, 4 oz chicken breast (14 pts) D: 4 gingersnap cookies (3 pts) |
Breakfast: the usual I eat every day. :D
12 points Snack: Quark and Raspberries 1 Point Lunch: Mediterranean Rice Salad with Zucchini, Mushrooms, Cherry Tomatos and a bit of Parmesan. 10 points snack: bell pepper sticks Dinner: Egg-Dip with Veggie Sticks and Crackers 8 points Dessert: Yoghurt and Grapes 2 points |
Breakfast: Carnation Instant Breakfast Drink (4 points)
Snack: Chocolate Cherry Berry Smoothie (5 points) Lunch: 3 Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Wraps (9 points) This recipe doesn't have points calculated. When I put them into the free online tool I use, and divided it into 10 servings, it came out a little under 3 points per wrap, with a wrap being one serving. Worth mentioning I use Country Crock Light butter, and have a home-made ranch dressing. Snack: Small Salad, just lettuce and 1 Tbs Blue Cheese (2 points) Dinner: Leftover Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Wraps (9 points) Snack: Yoplait with Granola (4 points) and Glass of Wine (2 points) Arbor Mist |
Tanyanka - I finally looked up online what quark is, it looks really good! I've never seen it in France before but it reminds me of fromage blanc
sunarie those buffalo chicken wraps sound sooooo good! I wish I could find wing sauce here :/ Wednesday's menu was: B: oatmeal w/ agave syrup & cinnamon, coffee w/ milk (9 pts) L: 3 oz salmon, salad w/ vinaigrette, 1 slice whole wheat bread w/ havarti cheese, yoghurt with honey, banana (14 pts - I was SO hungry from my workout!) S: 15 almonds & 2 laughing cow cheese (4 pts) D: 2 scrambled eggs w/ emmental, 1 slice whole wheat bread, green beans (7 pts) D: 1 piece extra dark chocolate (1 pt) I had a great workout at the gym & then took my baby for a walk in the afternoon, so overall I earned 12 pts in activity for today, woohoo! |
TheLunchLady there's probably a way to make some wing sauce. Usually it's just butter, spices, Worcestershire, and hot sauce. Something like this:
http://www.cooks.com/recipe/7x5uh2u2...auce-ever.html Just replace the frank's with your choice of hot sauce. Crystal and Red Hot are ones that are fairly popular here. Here's one with pictures and all: http://www.wikihow.com/Make-Buffalo-Sauce |
LunchLady: Yes, I think fromage blanc would be the equivalent in France, in Swiss French it's also called séré, if that helps. We have something called Blanc Battu here as well, which is similar. I really really love Quark, as it can be used for both sweet and savoury dishes and it's a light alternative for anything with cream cheese, cream etc. And it's a fantastic base for dips of any kind.
Yesterday's Menu: Breakfast: the usual I eat every day. :) I'm really boring that way. 12 points Snack: Quark and Raspberries 1 Point Lunch: Mediterranean Rice Salad with Zucchini, Mushrooms, Cherry Tomatos and a bit of Parmesan. 10 points snack: bell pepper sticks Dinner: Roastbeefsandwich with a Quark-Mustard-Honey Sauce that turned out really well, with the addition of cucumber and rocket. 12 points Dessert: Yoghurt and Grapes 2 points |
So I'm sick today, may end up getting Subway instead of cooking.. I work late and right now is my breakfast time. Here's the meal plan though. If I do Subway I'm still gonna try and do the smoothie and yogurt, but cut out the wine. That way I'll still be at 36 points for the day.
Breakfast: Carnation Instant Breakfast Drink (4 points) Lunch/Dinner: 6" Subway Sandwich (11 points) Edited to reflect what I ate. |
sunarie, I hope you feel better today!
I don't know what was up with me yesterday, but I had cravings all day long and ended up going over my daily points. Which wasn't terrible in the end, because I still had plenty of weekly points left. It might just be that time of the month. ;) Yesterday's Menu: Breakfast: the usual I eat every day. I'm really boring that way. 12 points Snack: Quark and Raspberries 1 Point Lunch: Couscous salad with various veggies. 5 points snacks: bell pepper sticks, 5 dried apricots (2p), Crackers (4p), Currywurst (12p) Dinner: Bagels with Roastbeef and Ham, with the addition of cucumber and rocket. 14 points |
sunarie I hope you feel better!
Tanyanka, now I have to ask - what is rocket? Also I was really hungry all day too, I would have say it's about to be that time of month but I haven't had a period since I breastfeed, haha Thursday's menu was: B: all bran fibre cereal & milk (7 pts) S: banana L: veggie & bean soup w/ azyme cracker, 2 wasa bread w/ 2 laughing cow cheese, 2 tbsp hummus & carrots, greek yoghurt w/ agave syrup (16 pts - big meal!) D: 4 oz chicken breast, 1 cup brown rice, green beans (10 pts) D: 1 piece dark chocolate (1 pt) |
LunchLady: Rocket is a type of salad, also known as Rucola or Roquette. Makes sense?
