    Today's Menu:

    Br: shredded wheat, skim milk, banana, coffee with skim milk only
    Sn: green juice
    Lu: MJS Newman's Own, celery, cukes, tomatoes, chicken, avocado, edamame spaghetti, herb salad and adding part skim mozzarella
    Sn: Asian pear apple
    Di: grilled wildcaught salmon, brown basmati, grilled veggies
    De: homemade ice cream (bananas, strawberries, skim milk and a bit of semi sweet chocolate pieces) tossed the HC bars ... OR Ezekiel cinnamon toast and real butter* and cuppa Teavana Peach tea

    *none of that fake fake fake stuff

    The End. HAGD

    Note...really working towards as little added sugar and fake sugar as possible...the Healthy Choice fudge bars jumped out at me, finally, as NOT a healthy choice. :o

    Very nice!
    My yesterday:
    omelette with pesto for brunch
    fresh fruit
    popcorn at the movies
    an early dinner: meat balls, and a big salad
    chardonnay

    then a bit more popcorn as a snack. We didn't really do meals at the right time yesterday!

    Something crockpot...someone is getting into the spirit of Fall! B)

    Just came back from Sprouts...picked up some chocolate chips extra dark...and the brand, Guittard. Also, some cocoa powder, unsweetened. Going to work on making my own ice cream. Oh brother. :'(

    Think I will just have tea and toast for dessert tonight. Or, popcorn. <3

    I think it may be time to break out the CP...I just have trouble drying stuff out in there. Need to totally follow directions, I think. Yes, that's the ticket!

    grilled salmon with edamame pasta and some veggie
    Asian pear
    mason jar taco salad
    homemade ice cream: frozen bananas, strawberries, fage %, dark chocolate chips

    The goal is mostly minimally processed foods...as little added sugar as I can. Move more.
