What's on the menu today?
Welp. Here's how I did today:
6 a.m Venti Sugar Free Vanilla Latte (nonfat milk, nofoam)
7-9 a.m. Blueberry muffin (spread out over a couple of hours)
12:30p.m. Three meatballs & a roll with butter
2:30 p.m. Fruit cup (about a cup)
4:00 p.m. mini york peppermint patty
4:30 p.m. Vitabrownie (100 cals loaded with vitamins)
5:30 p.m. Venti sugar free Vanilla latte with non-fat milk & no foam
6:00 p.m. 7 Hersheys kisses
7:00 p.m. Toasted low-fat whole wheat english muffin with turkey & provolone (at the whole darned thing - thought i would POP)
Lotsa Lotsa hot tea, one measley bottle of water, and took my vitamins.
I have to eat small doses every couple of hours or I get the shakes. Probably could have done with out the freakin' candy....but if I could have found some yellow banana's I would have eaten that instead. I try to eat a banana a day.
Those vitabrownies & vitamuffins are awesome if you can find them. They have 100 or less calories, low-sugar, high fiber and loaded with daily vitamins. I can only find them at Giant in my town.
How'd everyone else do???

Lets see:
I had the cereal and cuppacino yesterday morning like I said then:
1 6oz yogurt with strawberries and protein powder added.
2 oz of caramel corn cakes (like a rice cake only made of popcorn)
dinner did not sit well so nothing there
1 more protein yogurt
3 oatbran pretzels and a colby jack cheese stick
LOTS of water--Yeah!
Not too bad for me.
Hey Pam- Do you make your Lattes at home? And how? I would like to try them.

Wow... you did good! Too bad dinner didn't set well. This day was probably too low in calories for you. You sure aren't overeating!
I usually stop at Starbucks every morning to get my latte. It has three shots of decaf expresso, 5 pumps of sugar free vanilla syrup, and all the rest of the 20-24ish ounch cup is steamed milk (this is where the protein comes in) - I got the nutrition info off Starbucks website.
BUT I sometimes make them at home with an expresso machine. Just a cheapie from walmart that makes expresso & steams milk. I buy the sugar free vanilla syrup in a big bottle from Starbucks. I also buy a bag of special expresso ground coffee at Starbucks. It lasts forever.
Every time I go to a convenience store where they have those full sugar cappacino's in the machine (where you just push a button & it comes out all mixed) - I get hot tea. I get the ho****er out of the cappacino machine or out of the spout on top of the coffee machine, put three tea bags, one splenda and one half n half in it. That is so much better for me than those 400 calorie drinks. I'm addicted to it. No joke.
Today I had:
Venti sugar free decaf vanilla latte
Blueberry muffin (over a couple of hours)
Cup of chili + 2 crackers
4 french fries w/ ketchup
Banana
Halloween party at work: 2 dorito's, 3 potato chips, a 1" x 2" tiny piece of carrot cake and about a tablespoon of layered bean dip (made me soooooo sick!!!)
Venti sugar free decaf vanilla latte
About 6 teaspoons of a neighbor's chili while taking the kids trick or treating (too spicy!)
a bite size almond joy and then another one later....
this day would have been better if I had a chance to eat a real dinner.
lots of hot tea..... one measley bottle of water. I was so aggravated today too because I was so darned busy....I came straight home from work, picked the kids up, took them trick or treating....and BLAM it's 8p.m. and I have to drive other kids home... then BLAM it's 9:00 at night! I was DREAMING about getting back to the house and eating some turkey.... I was soooooooo dehydrated walking around. I really can't believe I didn't think to take a bottle of water with me. duh! Won't make that mistake again! Anyway, it's too late to eat now. I have to get to bed and get up at 5. Bahumbug!
Hugs,
Pam
