    not to the point but....i LOVE the fiber one honey clusters (flakes & crunchies as i call them)...they are so tasty!!! you should totally crush them into crumbs and use that as the "breading" for baked chicken fingers. MMMMM

    I know, I love them too. So does my 14 year old. A delicious way to get over 50% of your daily fiber! lol I've been looking for something to replace my shake and bake, maybe I'll give that a try. :smile:

    Just got home from lunch with a friend and had a bowl of Ruby Tuesday's white bean chicken chili with no sour cream and extra cilantro followed by a salad with baby greens, spinach, cherry tomatoes, carrots, yellow peppers, broccoli, cucumbers, mushrooms, black olives, craisins, and 1 oz. of the low-fat balsamic. IT WAS SOOOO FRESH AND YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Breakfast: 2-egg omelet w/1/4 c shredded cheese, red peppers, green peppers, onions, mushrooms (it's actually more like a plate of stir-fry veggies with some egg holding it together), 1 slice multigrain bread w/ 1 serving smart balance margarine.

    Lunch: 1 cup cooked brown rice with 1 cup Mediterranean Chicken Crock Pot recipe I made yesterday.

    Snack: 1/4 c of roasted edamame (sp?) nuts.

    That should be about 1,000 cals (I also did 800 cals on the stairmaster this morning).

    Dinner: Roast turkey breast, mashed potatoes, salad (tonight is one of our 'traditional" dinner nights where I make one of the "old" meals for my wife and stepdaughter that we used to eat all the time before I got on my program and took over the kitchen) :tongue:

    This week's dinner theme has been trying to make meals that pair well with some new Cotes du Rhone wines I am trying out, so I have been trying out some new "ersatz" southern french cooking recipes. It's great except that, since I eat so little now compared to before, the leftovers are starting to back up in the fridge.

    How would you describe the taste of edamame? I've been hearing a lot about it lately, but it kind of scares me. lol

    When you eat 1/2 a banana, what do you do with the other 1/2? I'm not being a jerk, I really want to know what you do when you do this...I either eat the whole banana and suck up the calories & sugar, or I don't eat them at all because I don't know what to do with the other 1/2. How long does it last when you cut them in 1/2?

    I'm feeling nosey. So far I've had:

    1 cup Fiber 1 Honey Clusters
    1/4 cup 2% milk
    1/2 banana <
    ?

    30 grams Armstrong cheddar

    When I have half of a banana, I put the other half in plastic wrap, and put it in the fridge. I've never checked to see how long it would last as I use it that day.
