Sorry for the neglect!

Ugh I've been busy. Like I said, I'm finishing my last 3 weeks of classes so I missed a day of blogging. Yesterday I ate fairly well. It was a pretty boring day of food so I wont even upload the pics of it all. I did have a slice of the freezer cake LoL. It was great! After it defrosted it actually tasted better than the first day I had it. Weird. I had 27 points yesterday - using 5 of my weekly bonus points. I was kinda annoyed by it because I ate a 5 point Clif bar unnecessarily. Nessie suggested that I try the Clif Z bar instead as it is less calories so I'll look out for them.

I worked out again last night - this time I managed to pull off an hour jogging and walking on the treadmill. And then I did the whole routine of lunges, pushups, and booty toning stuff. And now everything is sore.

Okay here's the food for today:
Breakfast
Omlette:
3 egg whites
1/4 cup mozzarella cheese
broccoli
tomato
1 tsp olive oil
4 pts



I bought these individual little baking trays yesterday and I used them to make a little individual lasagna. I had the noodles as well but I had already planned out my points for the day and couldnt "afford" the noodles. LoL. Soooo... instead of the noodles I just used the eggplant. I was surprised that it turned out good. It wasnt as solid as a lasagna with noodles would be, but it was yummy all the same.

Lunch
Eggplant "lasagna"
Eggplant
mushrooms
1/4 c part skim ricotta cheese
1/4 c mozzarella cheese
tomato sauce
1 tbsp parmesan cheese
4.5 pts


Snack
peach
1 pt

I have never been a fan of peaches. I have a childhood memory of my mom packing little canned fruit cocktails in my lunch and I hated them. Eww. Canned peaches are gross. And I guess I thought canned peaches were a representation of real, fresh peaches so I have avoided them all my life. I bought one the other day just to try it because the price was right. LoL. And it was good. I will buy peaches in the future.
Dinner
chicken breast
1 tsp olive oil
1/2 c black beans
1 c brown rice
tomatoes
9 pts

Dessert
yogurt
1 banana
1/4 cup blue berries
(not pictured)
4 pts

Total for the day: 22.5 pts
I felt too sore to do any exercise today so...none for me thanks!

xoxo

That eggplant lasagna looked sooooo good. You are getting really creative :o) Praises are also in order for your return to the gym...we can be gym buddies when you come back home...can't wait! Does WW do a points calculation for the number of calories you burn at the gym?

Love,
Shelly

I had to chuckle at your peach story. I was the saaaame way with apples. Now I can't live w/o a decent Fuji. Too bad they are outta season.
I have been trying your strawberry trick, BTW. Who would have thought eating them PLAIN would be A: so satisfying, and B: so tasty? Thanks for the idea!
