Sailing along, what are you eating???

Good morning crew mates, hope you are starting off the day well!

I got a new edition from the Eat This, Not That series yesterday.  It's  Cook This, Not That, and takes restaurant food, re does the ingredients to make then healthier, and then tells you not only how many calories you save by cooking the dish at home, but how much $$ you save by eating at home and not out. GREAT recipes and tips!  I recommend to anyone who eats. Beware, the nut info does not include the protein count, just calorie, fat and sodium, so you'll have to make those determinations on your own

Here's my day as I have planned it. Let's see what shakes out   lol

I had a lean cuisine baked chicken meal yesterday and sure didn't like it. Too salty, not enough chicken. Won't buy that one again

HI SUsan,

I think Healthy  Choice is better.  I only tried one thing from Lean cuisine and it was the fish.  It was not good at all.

I try not to have them often , maybe one every couple of weeks.  They are great for something quick.

I used to rely on them for lunches since they do provide good portion control. I'm trying hard to avoid processed food and lowering my sodium intake.

B: one slice of oatmeal toast and 2 scrambled eggs
S: orange
S: Atkins shake
L: beef and veggies
S: apple

D: don't know yet, what ever hubby makes

Plan for the day: working out in the gym after work exercising in the pool for a half hour on my own doing weights, walking lunges, jogging with 5 pd. weights in my hands and buoyancy lifts on my ankles before all out cardio water aerobics. Great workout!!!

 

I'm so envious of your dedication to excercise. Wish I could be more like you

South Beach protein bar

eating dinner out, will make good choice!

I seem to have fallen off the barge.  Lots going on right now, but that's just an excuse and I know it.  I seem to be maintaining the 5 lb weight loss, but have to get back on track.

I'll keep reading and taking the support.  When I get my head out of my butt, I'll start posting again.

Love you all.  Thanks for the support.
