Breakfast: Weight Control Oatmeal- Maple Brown Sugar, and coffee
Lunch: Baked salmon, mashed cauliflower, and one slice of whole wheat bread + 1/2 tbs Country Crock spread.
Dinner: 2 Slices of Domino's pizza- Philly steak, mushroom, and onion. Hand tossed.
I didn't eat any snacks today. I was able to stay under calories even with the pizza. I however need to do better in the evenings. I do very well in the morning and lunch, just suck for dinner. Maybe I need snacks in between lunch and dinner and it will keep me from wanting the unhealthy stuff?
*I learned today that there IS a better way to make my coffee without compromising taste. I had NO idea I was drinking 110 calories each morning and that was if I only had one mug of coffee! Yikes! I need to get to the store and buy fat free 1/2 and 1/2 and sugar free coffee syrup. That will cut my coffee calories considerably!
Where do you get the sugar free coffee syrup? The coffee with my creamer really does me in too.0 -
I already had my breakfast - sandwich with turkey and looots of black tea. Good morning lovely people!

Weekend meals are usually the toughest for me, but so far, so good. Juicing for breakfast and lunch was baby spinach, mangos, Greek yougart in honey for dressing with a light sprinkle of feta cheese. Going out for BBQ for dinner, but already figured out how many calories from their menu and portion sizes

I bought it at Walmart. It's called torani. I have the sugar free Hazelnut and it's pretty good. It definitely is not the sugary creamer I am used to, but I can drink it and I'm sure like everything else I will just acquire a taste for it after awhile.0 -

Today is an IF (intermittent fasting) day, so won't be eating till dinner and a snack in the evening. Tuscan Lentil Stew is in the slow cooker now Plan to have whole grain bread and a spinach salad with strawberries, feta cheese and walnuts with it. For my snack this evening vanilla yogurt with fresh raspberries and flax seed. Oh, and some flax seed has been added to the stew too...great way to get my fiber and magnesium in without having to taste it 0

That looked awesome! What is all in it?
2 Chicken boneless skinless chicken breasts diced
1.5 yellow onions (I had smaller ones so a large or medium would be fine)
1/2 C of frozen collard greens
small tomato diced
1 tbs extra virgin olive oil
1/2 C mushrooms
I diced the chicken this morning and had it marinade with some MSG free seasonings (Cajun), a pinch of salt and pepper.
Browned it up in a skillet and then added the vegis. Only took about a 1/2 an hour to make and was VERY good!0 -

Barbeque Black Bean and Chicken
Diced Chicken (20 oz) for a full recipe 5 servings
Can of black beans
Barbeque Sauce
Garlick and Onion
Cook chicken thouroughly with onion and garlick. Add Black Beans and Barbeque sauce (however much you want for flavor or saucyness).
You can eat it with tortillas, but I love mine with a mixed green salad and tablespoon of light ranch dressing. Super protein and you can make it more or less calories with chicken breast or thighs, and changing the barbeque sauce.0 -
