Breakfast: Just a bowl of Kashi Berry Crisp. I think I realized why I love it so much: it tastes like Crunch Berries but it actually has berries in it! (Instead of discolored milk.) 4 points
Lunch: There was one slice of pizza left so I ate it. I knew I should have eaten something better and I really realized it when I felt sick around 4:00. I guess a bad dinner the night before and a bad lunch is not a good combo. Anyways, it was only 4 points which is even more of a reason to have eaten more during the day. I’m not freaking out though, I’m still trying to get my groove back (and no, my name is not Stella.)
Dinner: I didn’t get home until around 6:40 and my awesome wife had made boneless skinless chicken tenderloins with asparagus and mashed potatoes with sour cream. It was fantastic, a real stick to your ribs dinner. That whole plate was only 8.5 points. This semester, we are going to switch off dinners so I get to try my hand at some new recipes! If you have a good one let me know!
Snacks: I had another bowl of cereal (4 points) and Megan made some 3 point mixed berry smoothies which were also awesome.
So today I’m at 23.5 points which is incredibly low. I didn’t intentionally mean to do that but I’m not starving. I might make some popcorn because we are finally about to watch Inception. I know I know I’m super lame. Sue me. One more thing, what did you think of tonight’s Biggest Loser? I think this season is going to blow mediocre Season 10 out of the water. It should be a good one. See ya tomorrow.
In an attempt to branch out from the now famous “Tex Mac” chicken soup, I do have a recipe for an equally awesome beef stew that you cook all day in the crock-pot with gnochi dumplings added during the final 30 minutes. Let me know if you’re interested. Congrats on a successful first day! I continue to be proud of your choices, changes and creative writing style.
Thanks Dad! That stew sounds awesome. Email or text it to me!
Hubby cooks during the week and I get weekends so I usually get to cook the complicated things. One of our favorites is the pizza panini.
2 thin slices of sourdough (We usually get this at Fresh Market)
2Tbsp of Pizza Sauce like Ragu
1 Serving of Turkey Sausage Crumbles Jimmy Dean
1 Serving of Pepperoni or Turkey Pepperoni
1 Serving or 1/2 serving of 2% Mozzarella Cheese
Assemble and put in the panini press until browned and serve with steamed broccoli in the microwave. Dinner in like 10 minutes. 🙂
YESSS!!!!!! I’ve wanted to snag this recipe from you since we met! Thanks! I’ll let you know how it goes.
