I had amazing food packed for work yesterday. Breakfast, lunch, snacks… I was armed and ready to start the week off right! But let’s see what I actually did eat, eh?
Breakfast started off well. A massive bowl of cereals. I’m really into mixing a bunch of different cereals these days. It makes me laugh because when I was younger my mom used to make us mix a ‘healthy’ cereal with a ’sugary’ cereal. So we’d often have Cheerios mixed with our Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I HATED it. And now here I am mixing three cereals for breakfast. The mix contained a half cup each of Rice Chex, Original Puffins and Kashi Crunch Honey Almoned Flax. I also added half a banana and some milk. Divine.


That held me over until lunch. Which I was excited about since it was something different. I never bring sandwiches but had one yesterday! Some Hilshire Farms Ultra Thin turkey, a slice of cheese, light mayo, spicy brown mustard, and 2 Clausen kosher dill pickle slices! This was SO good.

As you can see I also had some fresh strawberries with it. And to get some veggies in there I had the left of my tomato basil soup. This stuff is GOOD.

After lunch is when everything just turned into a downward spiral. I hit the Dove Caramel chocolates… and I hit them hard. I took a picture of the first 2 (note the cute heart post-its a friend sent me for V-Day)…
…but then neglected to take a picture of the next SIX that I ate. Yup… I think I ate 8 of them throughout the afternoon. So I did not eat my orange. Nor did I eat my apple. I just had copious amounts of chocolate. Cripes!
The picture taking also stopped there, but I did pretty well the rest of the evening. I had a Weight Watchers yogurt (peach) on the way to boot camp. I used to hate peach flavored things but I’m starting to like it more and more. When I got home I snacked on some cucumber spears and roasted garlic hummus to hold me over while my dinner “cooked.” It was a Lean Cuisine, this one to be exact. It looks and sounds horrible, but it’s oh so good. For a snack while watching House I had sugar free vanilla pudding with some strawberries, bananas and a crushed up graham cracker. Yum!
you girls are doing a great job! Keep up the good work … glad I taught you something good about eating. Now try some pork!

Don’t try the pork today, thought, Jeannie, It’s Ash Wednesday.
