Dec. 15th & 16th - Food Recap

Wednesday, December 17, 2008

Sorry for the lack of a food recap for yesterday, I was crazy busy studying! So here's a recap for both days:


Monday:

Breakfast: I hate to admit it, but I forgot about breakfast again - I know, so terrible! For some odd reason, when I go to the gym to train with Kerry in the morning, I don't get hungry til lunch - but I know I should still eat something.


Lunch - Pizza Pretzel - 6 points - this sounds like it would be bad for you, but it is actually from the organic food section of the grocery store, and is fairly low in calories (280) and real high in protein (as a vegetarian, I have to try to get the protein any way I can)- it is made by Kim & Scott's - http://www.kimandscotts.com/ - if they have them in your grocery store, they will be in organic frozen foods.



Dinner - Vegetable Maki - I LOVE sushi but recently gave up fish, so I decided to try vegetarian sushi - it was really good; and according to WW online, the 2 whole rolls were only 8 points combined.



Snack - Smart Puffs - 4 points - http://www.robscape.com/files/prod-smart-puffs.php - if you're a big snacker & sometimes just feel like you need something salty (this is totally me, no matter how hard I try, I cannot completely give up chips), these are great because they are actually really good for you & made with real cheese, and an entire bag has an absurdly small amount of calories, like 450 or so.



Tuesday:


Breakfast: Cottage cheese (low-fat), 2 points


Lunch: Vegetable sandwich - 7 points (wheat bread, american cheese, lettuce, tomato, green pepper, onion & spicy mustard - I used to love mayo on these sandwiches, but have now substituted mustard, which is an easy way to save some calories).


Dinner: Went out to dinner tonight at Hard Rock Cafe; and there wasn't much to eat vegetarian, so I got these southwestern spring rolls, which were basically black beans in a spring roll wrapper. I have a feeling the toppings weren't so great for me, but since I had a light day otherwise, and I could have done way worse for a night out, I am proud :)
