This morning I stepped on the scale at weighed in at 212.4!! FINALLY A LOSS! A loss that puts me below my lowest again so I’m finally really losing again! That was a 3.2 lb. loss this week for a total of 75.6 lbs. lost- meaning I earned my 75 lb. star! Holy moly, Batman!
For breakfast this morning I had 1 cup of oatmeal with 1/2 cup of blueberries and a cup of 1% milk for a total of 7 Points.
I was glad that I didn’t have to go anywhere today and could just sign in to work from home after my day of being in the car so much yesterday!
For my first break, I had PB and banana on light toast for 4 points. I just can’t get away from this stuff. I have to have it daily.
I also made my daily green smoothie (1 cup spinach, 2 oranges) for 1 point.
For lunch, I had a BBQ pulled pork sandwich with Swiss cheese on a sandwich thin along with 1 Roma tomato, and 1/2 serving of Baked Lay’s for 10 points. I also finished up my Diet Dr. pepper from yesterday.
I made the pulled pork in the crock pot over the weekend and WOW- it is SOOOOO good as leftovers! I really wanted a salad but I’m all out of lettuce and the grocery store didn’t have the kind of lettuce I like, butter lettuce, yesterday. There’s more BBQ left though!
For dessert, I had one square of Ghirardelli dark chocolate with caramel filling for 2 points.
I remember a long time ago when I worked in retail- before I was dieting this time- a woman came through my line with these Ghirardelli chocolate squares and I commented on how good they were and she said she had lost a lot of weight and she buys these Ghirardelli squares so she wouldn’t over indulge. Good idea, lady!
For my last break, I had 2 Cuties clementines for 0 points.
I also made a cup of Green tea w/ pomegranate for 0 points.
For supper, I made Ramen-Beef Stir Fry- a delicious recipe! I haven’t updated the link to the new Points Plus yet though, FYI. I divided the recipe into 6 servings- 7 Points Plus per serving. I had one serving. This picture looks nasty, eh? lol It tastes much better than it looks!
For dessert, I had HG Peaches and Cream pie- but I didn’t eat all of it. 1 point. Weird, this picture looks like cheesecake! It’s actually a pinkish/orange color.
That leaves me with 2 points left for the day!
