Keeping it honest - Day 7

ooh cantaloupe! Yummm

Good morning, Do you have the caloriecount of the granola made with oats? I want to make some but need the count. I know, I know ,figure it out. But that takes thought process and I am too tired. LOL. Thanks. Have a great day and I will post later after I have eaten more than 2 cheese sticks. Have a great day, Betty

I did it once a long time ago. Works out to about (for a small serving) 350 w/ the oats and 400 without. The carbs on it are very low - so it depends on what you count. I love granola and just prefer it sugar-free. I wish someone would come up with a good commercial sugar-free one that didn't have soy 'nuggets' in it lol

Hi Tooter, Okay I did pretty good yesterday, I think the mind set of taking it one day at a time may help. 2 cups decaf w cream/splenda 1. protien shake 2. low carb toast w/sf jelly and 1tbs peanut butter 3. Chicken marsela smart choice fozen meal and a sf toffee 4. 1 moz cheese stick and 1 chedder cheese stick 5. 3/4 a chicken flauta 6. 3/4 cup of special k high protien cereal w/ 1/2 cup of 2% milk 90 oz of crystal lite all my supplements.. I was at about 1200 cals for the day and 80gms of protien Take care, Melissa

you did good! What is chicken flauta?

Hey Tooter, A chicken flauta is like a chicken taco, just the tortilla is rolled and not folded a little less meat than an taco. You know mexican food is really all the same a tortilla with something inside, lol. Take care, Melissa

Thankfully, it's not "that" bad I've found a few dishes that weren't high carb, though admittedly MOST seem to be - rice, tortillas, beans, etc. Sigh...and I SO love Mexican! Thanks for the heads up on the flauta!
