L 1/2 c. fatfree refried beans/2T lite sour cream/2T salsa

The fishsticks were not the best choice but my kiddies love them on fridays, they expect it. I am going to try to find a lowfat version. I did limit myself to 4, before my banding, I would inhale a dozen or so before in a very short time

That muscle milk flavor sounds delish! Do you use the lite muscle milk or the regular? Do you add flavorings or did you find one in that flavor? thks!

I bought that flavor, I add nothing to it except water. I use the regular, because I don't eat enough through the day so the doctor told me to use the regular.

ok, i'm back---again. i'm not tight at all (can eat sandwhiches), but i'm not getting a fill because i'm trying for a baby and that would be a waste of money if we are successful

So, just going to suffer and try to hang in there....

l: roasted chicken with steamed veggies and red sauce (no oil)
s: 100 cal pack of light ranch dressing and baby carrots

Going to repeat this menu all week (it works well for me if i stick to it lol)

Gym: might skip, but go for a nice walk outside since it's a beautiful fall day :-)

Yesterday was my eat out/ high calorie day.

Yesterday:
B- water
L- Applebees- french onion soup, bbq chicken salad (ate very little of it, mostly the chicken and croutons-did not like the rest of it)
D- Chinese Buffet- 2 crab rangoons, mini eggroll, 1 bite sesame chicken, one bite lo mein, some strawberry shortcake dessert

I bought a cookbook over the weekend called Hungry Girl. I saw her on Rachael Ray one day and thought it would be a good cookbook. In one chapter, she does fast food remakes and I'm really excited to try some of them. I made a salsa pumpkin soup today from it and it was soooo good.....and only 173 calories for a BIG bowl. I may try the baked onion rings tonight!

I get the daily emails from Hungry Girl. She is also on the weight watchers offical page. I do not know how much you paid for the book but it is on Overstocks dot com. I was thinking in the future to purchase the book if I do not find it in the library.
