    I need portion control so I stock up on Healthy Choice Top Chef meals. Today was Chicken Marina, 280 calories. Not bad for frozen pasta if I do say so myself!

    I had fresh strawberries and mixed vegetables. It was yummy!
  • I had a "Light Waldorf", which is basically chicken salad (chicken, non-fat greek yogurt, red grapes, celery, and almonds). Found it in fitness magazine. A serving of pineapple non-fat greek yogurt, a serving of non-fat cottage cheese, and an apple. I just really need to drink more water!

    This with some variations - I use a heart of romaine, no red onion, fat free feta (about 1/4 cup), only a teaspoon of olive oil, and 1 teaspoon of salt:


    South Beach Diet Greek Salad:

    8 leaves romaine lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces

    cucumber, peeled, seeded, and sliced

    tomato, chopped

    1/2 cup sliced red onion

    1/2 cup crumbled reduced-fat feta cheese

    2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

    2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

    1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves

    2 teaspoon salt

    Combine the lettuce, cucumber, tomato, onion, and cheese in a large bowl.

    Whisk together the oil, lemon juice, oregano, and salt in a small bowl. Pour over the lettuce mixture and toss until coated.

    This makes a nice accompaniment as a side salad for grilled chicken or fish.

    Serves 1

    4oz of baked salmon filet (which I baked with fresh dill and sliced lemons) (This was a leftover from a dinner)
    1/2 cup of red quinoa mixed with cubed avocado
    1 cup of shredded red cabbage mixed with radish sprouts, mixed bean sprouts, gomasio, toasted sesame oil, brown rice vinegar
    2 cups of mixed green salad with some whole wheat crackers broken up to add crunch

    I acknowledge this is a LOT of fat for one meal, but the salmon is a healthy fat :)

    OH MY GOSH!!! Awesome lunch. All my favorites in one setting. I love Ezekiel bread, bananas and almond butter. Never thought of doing a sandwich. Also a HUGE fan of veggies and you picked some good ones.

    3 oz. of solid white tuna mashed with a 5oz. Haas avocado. Stir in the juice from 1/2 small lime and 2 0z. leftover chopped spinach. I might have it spooned over Tostitos 3 queso chips. They add 150 calories but I've got 800 left to play with today including dinner.
