What was your Easter meal?

I was a bit worried today, I have a huge candy weakness. I did it though, YAY! Today I made myself and a few others a yummy meal that didn't make me feel bad about eating it. I made baked french onion chicken, light brussel sprouts, deviled eggs, and whipped jello fruit dessert. I added good in, took some bad out , and made an overall good meal. I'm proud of myself. I also only ate one mini three musketeers marshmallow.

I ate a ton yesterday - but I had planned that
It was my baby's first birthday which is a milestone for me. So I did not count yesterday. In return, I did not eat anything special for easter plus went on a 60min run. I am proud I did not get into "now it's too late anyway" mode but just returned to counting again. 0 -

Regret, sadness, and self loathing.....
ham, green beans, scalloped potatoes, kings hawaiian roll, chocolate cake, peanut butter frosting, a tube of mini M&Ms, a small bag of chessmen minis, a quarter cup of starburst mini's, and soon to be another tube of mini M&Ms
All in all, roughly 1200 OVER my calorie goal....0 -
Blessing and a curse that I worked today and noone brought in ANY goodies, surprisingly. So I just brought my normal salad and snacks, and avoided all the stuff I really shouldnt have (special medical diet.)
HOWEVER I am CRAVING mashed potatoes SOOOOOO freaking bad right now, with a nice big buttery roll :sad:0 -
BBQ Chicken in the crockpot, home made mashed potatoes and sweet peas.. Yum! I had extra calories from the week and had 1/2 reeses egg for dessert. 0

I've been wanting to go to the Cheesecake Factory. There is one about an hour and half or so away from my house. Is it worth it? I think I read in one of your posts earlier the cake was not worth the 700 something calories or something like that right?0 -
I don't celebrate Easter BUT last Monday was a special evening in my religion and my family went to an old diner that we used to always go to. And it was a feast day in my diet so I was ready! Unfortunately, new ownership meant the food was nowhere near as good. But I love spending time with my family anyway.
Edit: lol forgot my meal, I had French toast, turkey sausage, egg whites and collard greens0 -
Bean sprouts, zucchini, a cucumber and tomato salad with feta and kalmata olives, and a baked trout filet.0

An egg mcmuffin, hash browns, orange juice. Then a chocolate frozen banana. Then a bacon cheeseburger, fries and a diet coke. Then chocolate ice cream. Then tonight a boiled egg, half an avocado, and I'm going to have a glass of whiskey.
No Easter ham or roast beef this year, but I'm not complaining. The cheeseburger was really good.0 -
Well, if I had been able to be with family, I would have had no qualms about having a wonderful, Easter style meal.
As is, I was alone, so I just had my usual oatmeal after an hour at the gym, and a dinner of vegetarian sausages, colcannon mash, broccoli, carrots, cauliflower and aubergine and lentil salad. Followed by an apple.
I have, however, had some mini hot cross buns and some chocolate as well.
One day people, why ruin it by having regrets and shame ?0 -
Picnic and a hike for Easter 2014: "Healthy" tuna salad, kettle cooked chips, cantaloupe, and two Palmier cookie/pastries.0

A hot dog on a bun. I'm about to just wolf it down and head out to a brutal underground show. Priorities, man.0
-
Leftover carnitas and cadbury cream eggs.
I didn't feel like cooking.0 -
We had ham, green bean casserole, garlic mashed potatoes, and corn. The only thing I had to "make" was the green bean casserole, and that we beyond easy. We had leftover ham that we thawed and the potatoes were the refrigerated stuff. Delicious!!!! 0

Yesterday, at a get together, was an epic feast of 3k calories! I was slightly underweight on accident (maintenance) so no great, big deal. Today was a sensible meal of salad, fish and a small portion of goodies! Happy Easter!0

Baked ham, green beans, potato salad, oriental slaw, baked beans, broccoli casserole, mac n cheese, 7 layer salad & a lemon cupcake with lemon icing...mmm...sooooo good. Today, I treated myself! I didn't overeat, just a teaspoon of each thing, except the cupcake, I ate the whole thing! Delish! :blushing:0

Easter Chicken ..
Remarkably Similar to regular chicken.. only... grilled at Easter :laugh:0 -
My husband and I really don't celebrate and we're on such different paths in our weight loss efforts that we end up cooking separate meals for ourselves.
I didn't eat a whole lot today because I was studying for a final, so I got to eat a little "richer" than usual. I had a hamburger, a baked potato and a big salad of baby lettuce with raw mushrooms. Couldn't have been more satisfied. 0 -
Dinner at my in-laws house. I had reasonable portions of chicken and mixed vegetables, a less reasonable portion of macaroni and cheese, two rolls, a big piece of carrot cake and a scoop of this strawberry cream cheese cool whip thing. And two peanut butter Reese's eggs (the little ones.) And 5 peanut butter m&ms.
I've been doing really well these last few weeks- I went over my goal today by 500, but I'm still a bit under for the week. And I've got a big bike ride planned for tomorrow. So, no harm done. Normally I would have eaten a LOT of candy so I feel pretty good about that part, at least.0 -
Honey Baked ham, fresh green beans, home made escalloped potatoes, and a half bottle of wine. Relatively small portions of the ham helped, but I was still way over my sodium for the day. Other than that, I stayed within my daily goal. Didn't steal any of the kids candy.0

DH and I went to Easter Buffet at a local restaurant - pork tenderloin, beef brisket, ribs (1), roast turkey, grilled portobella mushroom, broccoli, asparagus, potatoes au gratin, baked potato salad, green salad w/ ranch dressing, strawberry cake w/ cream cheese icing, german chocolate cake w/ pecan/coconut icing. Eat a very good, filling meal at noon and have no regrets.0
