Sticking to the Basics - wed
I like Jo's idea of the tuna melt - that way you're only using 1/2. I don't think they'll be something you'll get 'addicted' to, but it is nice having something out there for a burger or sandwich that isn't thick, meaty bread that's going to kill you with carbs or swell in your pouch. And they last forever in the fridge - someone said they also freeze well, so if you're afraid they're something you'll want a lot of stick them in the freezer and just pull one out at a time - or a 1/2 - maybe that'll help. I keep them at work if I really want a 'sandwich' but I rarely use them at home unless we're doing burgers.
I've noticed that when Len & I go out to dinner he snarfs the bread down big time - he's always been a huge bread eater. Once in a great while I'll get the urge but not too often and just the thoughts of it swelling and spoiling my meal are enough to keep me from it - I don't do well with dense foods so no fries or stuff like that, either. In that way I'm lucky.
Now crunchy carbs??? Oh god don't get me started!!

Hi Liz and all - I've been trying to watch my carbs a little more this week - evenings are my worst time, tho...but here's my plan for today.
B: TJ's Bacon & Cheese crustless quiche (15 g protein - 3 g carbs - not bad)
S: Fresh fruit salad (melon, berries)
L: Turkey & cheese roll-ups; banana
S: SF pudding
D: Baked chicken parm; salad
S: Fruit? Nuts?
E: Curves; walk the dog; ride my bicycle
