    I really like the BK veggie burgers... they do them up just like a whopper. It's a garden burger, so if you've had those before and like them, you'll like the BK ones. With cheese, they run 470 calories or so.

    today's special for me, because I've been sick, feverish and headachy. I normally put more effort into my meals but today I succumbed to all that frozen crap :laugh:

    breakfast- 2 slices wheat toast, 2tsp becel light, 1 strawberry yogurt, blueberry tea

    lunch- pc Blue menu Parmisan chicken

    snack- cantaloupe, 1/8th slice

    supper- 2 slices mozzarella/tomato pizza

    snacks- 1/2 cup cherry frozen yogurt, blueberry tea x2

    about 12 glasses of water so far. sore throat ugh. I usually eat a lot more than this. calories came out to just over 1000 which is abnormal for me but with my throat like this it's painful to eat. I'm planning some applesauce for later.

    My days are always different, during the week its pretty steady though. I usually have dry cereal for breakfast (yogurt burst cheerios, yum!) for snacks throughout the day i keep 100 cal packs at work with me and yogo bits, i dont usually eat a real lunch, just snack during the day with tons of water and we usually have some form of chicken for dinner if i have time, if not, its a smart ones or lean cuisine. Some of my fav's lately are orange sherbert, 100 cal honey graham cheesecake bars, sugar free pudding and apple slices with caramel.
