    I ate too much fiber yesterday and am not very hungry today as a result. Bleh.

    Breakfast: chickpea/cucumber/tomato salad, two boiled eggs, iced moka espresso.

    Lunch: I'll probably skip it if I don't get hungry for breakfast before 10AM or so; if I don't skip it I'm thinking just half an almond butter and jelly sandwich and some baby carrots.

    Dinner: gnocchi in tomato cream sauce, garden salad.

    Snacks: unlikely, but I do have fruit and cheese on hand.

    It's grocery day, which means not only is there nothing much in the house, but I will also be too exhausted to cook after 14h work and a trip to the store. I'm trying to talk myself out of three takeout meals, but I'm not having much success.

    Breakfast: sausage McMuffin, hash brown, coffee. (Yes. The suck starts early today.)

    Lunch: gonna make a real effort to come home and have a big salad with lemon pepper tuna on top, even if it doesn't seem appealing.

    Dinner: I didn't make gnocchi last night because my son wasn't home until after 8:00, so I hope to do that and steamed broccoli tonight. If the store wears me out, though, I'm really likely to just heat up frozen egg rolls and chuck some baby carrots on the side. :neutral:

    Snacks: I have a full cup of cherry and grape tomatoes harvested from my plants this morning! Also apples, apricots, and Triscuits.

    Lunch: salad of romaine, chickpeas, cucumbers, tomatoes, mushrooms, and red bell peppers with homemade thousand island dressing

    I still have about 250 calories left, which will probably consist of some combination of watermelon, cucumber, and a raspberry outshine fruit bar.

    Breakfast: zucchini-olive bread with salted butter, cottage cheese, strawberries. I picked up an iced almond milk latte on my way to work.

    Lunch: will probably be small snacks throughout the day; I am am about to leave to work from home, because my office A/C is out. I'll nibble on the aforementioned zucchini-olive bread, various fruits and raw vegetables, crackers and cheese, garden tomatoes, etc.

    Dinner: fulfilling a trashy craving and making Hamburger Helper (stroganoff) and garden salad. And also, at least three cocktails.

    Snacks: Greek yogurt with blueberries
    Dinner: Supposed to be a black bean burger with the shrimp pesto pasta from last night. Knowing my boyfriend though, probably pizza or sushi.

    Dinner turned into trying that Noodles and Co. chain. I ordered the Japanese pan noodle dish with tofu. Luckily it ended up being reasonable as far as calories go and I still have room for Enlightened tonight!

    Correction, my breakfast was so good and easy that I had it for lunch too. I'll eat the tofu scramble tomorrow.

    Breakfast: none yet because I woke up at 2:30AM and horfed some Triscuits. I might have some cottage cheese and fruit in a while, but then again I am lazy and not very hungry.

    Lunch: either corn fritters and salad with garden tomatoes, or a grilled ham-and-cheese sandwich, garden tomatoes, and broccoli.

    Dinner: either whichever meal I did not make at lunch, or frozen egg rolls.

    Snacks: fresh-cut pineapple, golden watermelon, raw veggies with dip, cucumber-lime cocktails, etc.

    I am not great at planning on summer weekend days. I just like to laze around, enjoy the sun and garden, drink cocktails, and eat whatever little nibbles are around when the mood strikes me. I guess the upside is most of the things I like to eat in summer are reasonably healthful and fresh?

    I forgot I'd boiled eggs over the weekend, so I actually had a corn fritter, two boiled eggs, and some fresh pineapple for breakfast!

    Man, my plans are going haywire today! I just got a package from a friend -- a 15lb bag of a particular kind of rice I've been trying to track down for 15 years. I'm making a batch now (too excited to wait and plan it in); I'll have a little as a snack and then we have have the rest with egg rolls and zhenjiang vinegar for dinner!
