Daily Food Tab..

mah dinna, courtesy of me!  lol.. my mom is in bed, so it's "fend for yourself" night at my house.. :)  Thanks to an idea I got from SOMEONE on one of these blogs I follow, I combined half a can of Campbell's Sirloin Burger soup with 1/2 bag of minute rice, and voila!  a great 6 pt casserole style dinner..

with strawberry yogurt for dessert!  yummy!!



Alright, so I said I'd start accounting for all my meals on here, hopefully to embarrass myself into not eating bad, and so I plan to start today..  here it is..

McRib Sandwich (no onions)

Medium Fries

Diet Coke

1/2 lb of Private Selection Potato Salad

1 serving of Chunky Sirloin Burger Soup

1 cup of Minute Rice

    1 Strawberry Yoplait Yogurt   

31 points

So I went over my points, which I figured I would.. and I made sure that I did 10 rounds of Just Dance songs before I ate.. so I gotta figure out how many points that gives me, so I'm not totally embarrassed by how much I went over my daily allowance (aka 26 pts)..

Okay, so I can't find my activity point calculator.. :(   I usually don't use my "activity points" to eat more, just to lose more weight..  SO I guess I'll just take these off of my weekly allowance.. which I don't like to use either.. Now, tomorrow is going to be a trial.. it's my brother's birthday celebration.. with bbq chicken with cheese on top, mac n cheese, broccoli casserole, and oreo cookie cake.. holy moly!  so I'm going to try to stay away from the mac n cheese and only have a smidge of the oreo cookie cake (which should be easy since I don't particularly like it).. lol

Time for Dinner.. and a Blog Hop

So my client I have on weekdays, the one with the awesome gf, has me cook from time to time.. Sometimes it's from a recipe (last week I made Mahi Mahi, brown rice and veggies.. kinda simple).. Sometimes it is straight from the top of his head.. Today was the latter..

I was worried, as I never have had the patience to cook well.. I can bake like no one's business, but cooking.. not so much..  So today's menu included rice pasta, shrimp, veggies (mushrooms, peppers, black olives and onions) garlic powder, chili pepper flakes and Ragu sauce.. Sounds kinda weird but it was DELICIOUS!!  See?!

Before this, I wasn't much on mushrooms and black olives, but I think that's because we don't "think outside the box" very much in my house.. :(    Gonna have to think outside the box more often.. lol

And now for the thing we've all been waiting for.. a blog hop!
