Back on track and feelin’ good!

I think that from now on I’ll mostly be posting once a day - for the entire day before.  Unfortunately my system works better at work then at home, so this just seems to work out better.

I started yesterday out having the same breakfast as the day before, but with an entirely different result.  On Tuesday, my Oatmeal Creme Brulee only lasted in my tummy for 2 hours?!?!?  Crazy, I know!  Maybe it was boredom hunger, I have no clue, but I needed my first snack around 9:30.  Yesterday however, it lasted me until 1:00!!!!  WEIRD!  Hey, I’m not complaining though :)  It did help that I had a homemade Iced FF SF Vanilla latte I suppose, but still……

Breakfast (this with an unpictured latte)= 6 points

I think it also helped that I was busy - I had a couple of meetings and went home for lunch to take care of Baylee.  When I got back, I wasn’t overly starving and it was 1:00!  I love that :)  It was leftovers for lunch, which I could not wait for!  I even liked it better as leftovers than the night I made it!  I think it gave time for all the flavors to sit together and the noodles were more like what you’d get at a Chinese Restaurant!  MMM!  On the side was an orange.

Lunch = 7 points

Then it was time for snack.  I love my afternoon snack time :)  Not only do I get to fuel my body again, but it means my work day is 3/4 over!  A wonderful feeling!  For snack I tried something new and somewhat unintentional.  I bought a new LF pudding that sounded and looked SO good!  Cinnamon flavor!  (I’ll take a pic of the carton soon to show you guys)  I loooove cinnamon stuff!  When I opened it for my snack, I was somewhat surprised and disappointed.  Apparently it’s not just pudding, it’s a rice pudding!  So I was disappointed because it wasn’t what I was expecting, but luckily I love rice pudding (kind of like a tapioca).  And it was DELISH!!!!  SO good!  I paired it with an apple to get some more fruit and calories in.

I love to slice my apples really thin so it feels like you’re getting a lot more!

After work, I went to the dog park with Baylee.  I didn’t count the laps, but we were there for about 2 hours so I’m assuming I got 6 laps in or so (4.8 miles).

Supper was something new for me…..it’s really not original AT ALL, but I have never done it before.  I took 2 slices of Light WW Bread, some LF cheese, and some deli turkey and did a grilled cheese sandwich with turkey in it.  I told you, not original, but I’ve never done it with turkey!  I’ve done it with ham a few times, and wasn’t crazy about it for some reason, even though I LOVE grilled ham and cheese restaurants.  Well let me tell you, this was SOOOO good and totally hit the spot!  I couldn’t stop going “mmmmmm” while I was eating.  I’m sure Chad was like okay, enough already!  I made Chad a casserole which I had originally planned on eating too, but once I figured out the points it was too high for me, so he gets the whole thing to himself!  It was delish though - really, really good.  You’ll see a bite of it on my plate because I wanted to make sure it was good.  I also had a side salad with dried cranberries, strawberries, blueberries, and cherries and a LF Raspberry Dressing.  (Sorry there are bites out of my food - I had to recharge my battery until it had enough juice, so I needed to start eating in the meantime!)

Supper = 5 points

Total for today = 21 points

**I am officially “back on track” and feeling great about it!!**
