    I decided to do a veggie/fruit only day 2xs per week. Those two days are Friday and Monday! Right before and
    after the weekend which is the hardest for me. We are hosting a superbowl party so I know to put out healthy snacks
    for people like me who are watching what they eat.

    I recently started making a garden salsa out of fresh veggies. Make it the night before and it will be perfect on Sunday. I serve
    it with chips but also celery and strips of bell pepper. I am making chili too but I will make a small batch of chicken or turkey chili
    just for me!

    It can be done if you are motivated!

    Good luck!

    Don't drink alcohol then. You'll still have fun I promise!

    This is a dangerous fiction that you speak.

    Lawlz.
    You should party with me some time.

    Not if it impinges on my closely held beliefs, sir! Also, I don't get back down to DC too often.

    Well, damn. That is actually my kind of night. In actual DC or suburbs? I grew up in Herndon.

    Take a baggie of almonds with you. Anytime you're tempted... eat a couple.

    LOVE the Veggie Tray....and if you stick with the wine/vodka mixed with a club soda etc....instead of beer it'll be better and you can sip it longer.

    :drinker:

    When you've snacked on veggies try picking a bit at the bad stuff you really like...you'll eat less of it.

    :( My Patriots lost last week, so I suppose I'll be wearing Purple on Sunday!

    Make something healthy to bring & share. PAY ATTENTION to everything you eat. Drink lots of water throughout. Whenever possible, get up and move around. Start a game for every time the team you're root for gets a touchdown: like do a little dance or something. Most of all HAVE FUN! It's only one day. Burn & cut some extra calories through the week, so you can remain UNDER your calorie goal. Also, make the healthiest reasonably lowest calorie choices you can make for breakfast and lunch that day; and even for dinner the night before.

    This sounds like it would also be great modified to be a lettuce wrap and no corn shells and using quinoa instead of the rice.... mmmmm Think I might try that!

    I'm going to bring a veggie tray. I will also eat a little of other things. I'll have some beer too. I'll kill it at the gym before I go. :)
    Super Bowl is like Christmas here.

    Here is a great dip to take with you - it is sooooo good I swear it is like crack! I make it every other week now and use it through out the week - it is 118 calories for 1/3 cup

    This is so good and mostly protein! You can eat it with celery sticks, on a roll or with crackers! Buffalo Chicken Dip 2.5 pounds fresh chicken breasts 1/2 pkg. dry ranch mix 3/4 bottle Frank's Red Hot sauce Block of 1/3 less fat cream cheese * put chicken, ranch mix, 1/2 bottle of Frank's in crock pot for 4 hours. Shred chicken, add the other 1/4 bottle of franks and the cream cheese.

    goodluck!
