SUPER BOWL!

Posts: 3
Let me be the first to say TGIF! Now that the weekend is fast approaching i'm working on a plan that hopefully will keep me on track. Last weekend was a disaster, overeating, and not working out left me with no energy and burned out during my "workout" session on last Monday. I can't have another weekend like that! I realize staying on track considering my "Better half" and I are throwing a party with all the traditional super bowl foods (Hot wings, pizza, chips, alcohol, etc) may be hard, but we are creating some healthier food that we can enjoy! Believe it or not, i'm looking forward to fighting temptations and enjoying some good company, food, and the game! Steelers all day!!!!

I'm looking forward to the game too! My plan is to only grab a small paper plate to eat off of instead of the normal sized ones! I'm just hitting it hard the days leading up to it and next week to account for any extra calories!0

Most of my close friends, fortunately or unfortunately, don't like football as much as I do, so I thankfully can exercise to my heart's content on Sunday before and during the big game, as well as eat some nice, healthy foods.
I wish you the best of luck in avoiding those temptations. I know I'm not strong enough to avoid them all yet.
Oh, and go Packers!0 -
I am SO pumped for The Superbowl! GO PACKERS! (Not a popular choice, I know, but I can't help it, I've been a Packers fan for YEARS now!!!).
Thank GOD for Orville Redenbacher's Smart Pop, that's all I have to say! I'll be mowing down on that all evening! Oh, and a couple of slices of Domino's pizza will have to be worked into my daily caloric allowance, of course!
I CANNOT WAIT!!!0 -

you will definitely set a good example for others---and that is a good feeling. Good luck.0 -
You root for the Packers ALL YOU WANT! I live in Madison, WI, and its a hell of a year for Wisconsin football. Sure, the Badgers didn't win the Rose Bowl, but they made it, and the Packers deserve it just as MUCH..Go Pack Go!
Anyway, I'm worried about the eating too. Us Wisconsinites love our alcohol and food..So, the parties I'm going to are gonna have the standard wings, dips, chips, cocktail wienies, beer, etc.. But I am bringing food to one party and I've got some good ideas.
Turkey pin wheels with whole wheat tortillas, fat free cream cheese, and low fat, low cal turkey slices
Assorted fruit plate.
Assorted veggie plate with FF sour cream and spices for the dip
Devilled eggs with FF or Light Mayo
Baked jalapeno poppers
Baked chix wings
Just some ideas..We don't have to go overboard!0 -
I'm making sure there are veggies and light dip.... I will be very happy with that!!! GO PACK GO!!!0

I'm making Taco Dip....fat free cream cheese, smart balance sour cream, salsa mixed together and topped off with shredded lettuce, tomatoes, fat free cheddar cheese and just a few black olives with baked lays. Not the traditional "Taco Dip" but its pretty low cal.
I love the idea of popcorn! I'm not a Packer fan but all my family is..........and I'll be watching the game with them. I root for my numbers in the pool:drinker:0 -
I think I am going to make Fiber One Chicken Fingers (SOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOD). Does anybody have a good low cal Sangria recipe? I realize that sangria is not "footbally" but I still want it :laugh:0
