Another day...

By the end of the week, you'll all see that I am very repetitive in what I eat.... :o)

Anyway, I earned 1 activity point last night and I finally tried the Blue Bunny Health Smart- Fat free, Sugar Free fudge bar (I actually had the vanilla & fudge bar). It was pretty good, but the Skinny Cows are better. But hey, for 0 points it was worth it. :o)


TODAY-
Breakfast:

(the usual)
1/2 cup egg-substitute
fat-free shredded cheddar cheese
1 banana

3 -"chocolate coffees"

Snack:
1 mini bag Orville Redenbacher Smart Pop 94% fat free popcorn

Lunch:
(leftovers from the night before)
Whole wheat pasta
lean ground beef
Light Ragu Tomato & Basil pasta sauce (1pt.)
fat-free, sugar-free chocolate fudge pudding made with skim milk

Dinner:
(It was "GIY Night" at our house- Get it yourself night- everyone finds their own thing to eat...I'm not cooking...)
1/2 can of Campbell's Healthy Request Tomato soup made with skim milk
med. salad w/ fat-free shredded cheddar cheese, carrots, cucumbers and fat-free ranch dressing

Snack:
1 Blue Bunny Health Smart-fat free, sugar-free fudge bar (0 pts.)

Earned 1 activity point tonight. :o)

Between the points used and the points earned, I have 34.5 points left to use the rest of the week and the weekend. Not bad, however I am sure that I will use way more that the 34.5 points over the weekend, but we'll see. Easter Sunday isn't going to help...we are going to 2 different dinners, however one of them is at my sister's who will make sure that we have some core items on the menu. :o) At the other dinner (at Mike's dad's), there is no such thing as reduced fat anything in the cooking over there. LOL!

Oh, two of you mentioned that you were thinking of the Core plan, but thought it might be too restrictive....my sister switches plans from time to time. For example, when she is going to be traveling, eating out alot, etc. she switches to the Flex plan for a few weeks because it's easier for her to just figure points instead of being stuck with only core foods. Then she'll switch back to core and switch again when needed. Just a thought..... hope to see you all this weekend!

Thats a good idea. I hadn't thought about switching back and forth. I'm still thinking about it...

I am thinking that Easter shouldn't be too bad this year... All we are doing in a light brunch at my mom's house. Good luck with all that!
