What's for dinner - Thursday!!!!!!!!!

I'm about to go to...get this...a HAPPY HOUR!!!! Yeah baby!

A co-worker is leaving so we're sending him out in style. I doubt I'll consume alcohol (mostly owing to my budget...at 4 years out I know exactly how long my buzz lasts and can plan pretty well around that). I hate bars though. They tend to have chicken wings.

Anyhoo...after that I am going to the Wal-Marts to get some stuff for the Little Diva to head to camp. Then after that I am stopping at Whole Foods for a few needed items.

DInner? Well I'd love to say I'm sticking to my plan of shrimp and eggs BUT intuition tells me I will get hungry before I reach home so...? I'm thinking maybe one of those thingies of Mediterranean tuna salad from WF.

Anyway...here's what else I had today:

1. A handful of granola
2. Click Frappe
3. Lemon-pepper tilapia w/ squash, zucchini and onions
4. Protein coffee

So...all that puts me at 92g of protein for the day. So I can haz a Twinkie, right? (Kidding. I don't even like Twinkies). 

Anyway...cheekyness aside...what's on YOUR plate?

 Most likely leftovers.  I have a whole fridge to choose from.  Tonight my kiddo has a band camp concert so time will be tight.  Should be great fun though, and then I get to bring him home for a week before he leaves for church camp.  I miss him.  :)

Pork tenderloin stir fry. Rice for the rest of the family, just pork and veggies for me.

Summer Chicken Salad. Made with canned chicken breast, cut up white seedless grapes, diced mandarin orange pieces, chick peas, ff mayo and plain greek yogurt. I will have a few triscuit thin crisps to go with it. Really yummy!

 This sounds good! Do you use any kind of seasoning or flavoring?

I'm having people over next week and I never know what to make. This is something within my culinary skill set that the whole dinner party can eat.

I'm on soft foods (no nuts, nothing chewy or crunchy) for 5 days (dental issues)

so.... today i had quiche, Fage, quiche plus protein shakes (not really equipped for soft diet) 

Tomorrow see dentist and more fage and quiche (only soft food I have) And.... probably more of same until Tuesday or Wednesday

booooring

Baked flounder and spaghetti squash
Sliced peaches over homemade ricotta later for a snack......why can't I just skip dinner and have my snack???

Weird day. Woke up to power outage that lasted for 3.5 hours. Kind of a so so day. Loving the cool weather while I can.
B: sm. coffee w/ van. protien powder
L: tuna melt
S: green grapes
D: Grilled burgers w/ the works!, tomatoe & cuke salad, few nacho chips

Have a pleasant evening. Karen

I am cautiously eyeballing Taco Casserole for dinner. I tend to get a little crazy with it so I plan to have LOTS of veggies.... steamed squash, fresh green beans, sweet peppers.

I missed my spin class with the chicken ordeal (she had BBQ meat, mac n cheese, grits, cottage cheese.... my sister cleaned out her fridge and brought me goodies for the chickens ).

Otherwise my day:
B - banana protein/ tsp PB2/ skim milk
L - rotisserie chicken, squash, green beans
S - PURE protein bar w/ about 8 blue berries to give it something other than cardboard flavor
D- taco casserole and veggies
S - turkey pepperoni / chz
- cottage cheese, sf jello w/ fruit

Can I just whine for a minute?  Thanks.

I'm overwhelmed. Seriously. Feeling like a deer in headlights.

I took on WAY too many committments, and all the deadlines are approaching in the next 48 hours. I've got a to-do list a mile long, and I cannot fathom how I'm going to get it all done. Tonight may very well be an all-nighter. 

So. I guess I better get started. 

Anyway, dinner tonight was a turkey Lean Cuisine and a side of green beans with almonds and cranberries. Wolfed it down. I was going to make chili, but I was So. Hungry. And I couldn't wait.  I really want to eat another boiled egg or half a Quest bar, but I know I don't have room for it. I think the busy-ness of this past week has amped my appetite to ridiculous levels and I have to pace myself or I make myself sick.
