    Ham and Pumpkin soup with a Pumpkin Knot Roll (yep..I like pumpkin and made the soup to use the pumpkin left over from the rolls) -Under 300 cals- (most from the roll)

    This is sounds super good!!

    I will probably have a salad with lobster chunks on it...(I eat luch later as I have a large breakfast) but I just had a snack of 2 hard boiled eggs cut up and mixed with 1 TBSP sweet relish and 1 TBSP of reduced fat mayo with olive oil on 3 slices Wasa crisp n light toasts...and it was very yummy!!

    It was my first time making it (: Got the recipe off of Allrecipes.com(I adapted to leave the cream out of it! I think I would enjoy that salad!!!

    Progresso Rich & Heaty Steak & Homestyle Noodles soup. I love this line of soups. Most are low fat, tasty, and filling. I love the Chicken Tuscany. It is high in fiber and really keeps me full. This is the first time I am trying the steak & noodle. Most are around 200-300 calories for the entire can.

    I love Progresso Soup...so tasty,not as bland as some other soups....but I limit how many times I eat them b/c unless I buy the low sodium kind.....the sodium count is outragious....like 1000 per can...Yikes.....But I love how they taste....mmmmm

    Sodium is one of the last things I worry about right now. I watch more for calorie and fat content, carbs, prtein and fiber.

    Where do you buy it? Or do you make it??

    Chicken Taco salad without the tortilla, topped with lots of lettuce,tomato, onion, peppers and fat-free sour cream. This is left over from our dinner last night - 1 shredded chicken breast mixed with a can of kidney beans stretches quite a ways when I am eating correct portion sizes!

    Good lunches! I had a boring sandwich. Chicken breast, lettuce, tomato, black pepper, and light mayo on a bagel thin and grapes.

    Last night I made this last Pork Tenderloin recipe in the crock pot which will get me at least 3 portions for lunch this week.

    http://allrecipes.com//Recipe/amazing-pork-tenderloin-in-the-slow-cooker/Detail.aspx

    It is about 200 calories per 5 ounces and then I am doing different 100-150 calorie sides for each day. Today's is some whole grain rottini pasta with shaved butternut squash.

    Friday Whole Foods had strawberries on sale so I bought 2 pints. These had to have been the best berries I've had in a long time. So today i went and bout some spinach and made a spinach salad for lunch. First I made my dressing with braggs apple cider vinegar, 3 crush berries and olave basil olive oil. Then I wash 3 cups of spinach leaves and removed any large stems and topped that with a few slice berries. I cooked 3 strips lightlife smoked tempeh and crumbled that on top., poured the dressing on and sat down to a great lunch.

    I'm gonna try and remember to take a pic next time.
