I had this:
Wheat Thin Flat Bread Crackers 3 = 90 Cal
Laughing Cow Garlic and Herb Wedge = 35 Cal
1 Cup Fresh Pineapple = 55 cal
1 Sugar Free Choc. Pudding Cup = 60 cal

Equals 240 cals, and I'm very satisfied. Will most likely have a gala apple around 3! :)

Tell me, What did you have?

    hello! i made a chicken snack wrap w/ leftover chicken pieces, some shredded mozzarella cheese, lettuce and some chipotle ranch dressing on a flour tortilla. it was a good satisfying lunch, but i didn't realize how much empty calories were in a flour tortilla... oops... still well under the caloric intake for the day. i'm hoping i don't blow it tonight w/ dinner though. wish me luck guys!

    Don't know how you cooked it previously, but squash is pretty simple. Just cut in half, scoop out the seeds, and bake in a pan with a little water at 350 for, oh, 45-60 minutes, depending on its size. Basically, cook until you can easily stick a fork in it. Once it's cooled enough to handle (or you have oven mitts), use a fork to pull out the innards. Spaghetti squash will pull out in strings. If you cut it in half lengthwise, the strings will be longer, but it's harder than cutting it in half widthwise. :)

    Pour alfredo sauce over it, and voila! My hubby and I also add grilled chicken to ours.

    My lunch was leftovers from dinner last night: Homemade spicy peanut chicken over white rice. So yummy!

    The slap yo momma line cracked me up :)
    And dont feel bad! Ive been there, done that! At least you have a great mindset about how to overcome this one setback! I always have a hard time regaining my focus after a meal or day like that. Great job staying focused on the prize! (Our goals and current weights are similar...we are SOOO close to success!)
