day 6

Today was a good food day! greg and i actually sat down at the kitchen table, not only for lunch but also for dinner. this is a big thing in itself as we eat in front of the tv 99 percent of the time. so to have 2 meals in one day at the table together was a welcomed change. now if only i could get him to slow down because he likes to vacuum his food down as fast as possible and the world needs to slow down and enjoy their food! (i'm a super slow eater... i like to take my time and savor each bite!)

breakfast- Quaker brown sugar oatmeal squares

 

lunch- greg and i ate grilled english muffin sandwiches with turkey and of course cream harvarti, pita chips, and a giant bowl of vegetable soup.

 

dinner- i was especially excited about dinner tonight as it has been planned for 2 days now. inspired by one of my dads favorite dishes, we made whole wheat pasta topped with broccoli and Marzetti's blue chesse italian vinaigrette dressing along with shrimp skewers which we marinated in chiavetta's before grilling. this meal took about 10 minutes to make and was SO good.

 

Snacks- Fiber one bar, 2 double stuff oreos, 3 hershey's sandwich cookies reese's peanut butter flavor, healthy choice fudgesicle, and strawberry shortcake. we found the hershey's cookies today at target and although 3 points for 2 cookies is a little high, i say they are so worth it.

 

so thats how i spent my 28 points today. i'm happy with all of my choices.
