Hard to Say Goodbye

I wasn’t feeling well this morning after eating a Mexican dinner out last night. I did really well with my choices but something upset my stomach. So I decided on a light breakfast: 1 cup cheerios, blueberries and milk for 4 points.

And then it was time for hubby to leave. But he will be home on weekends, so I am thankful for that. It’s still hard to say goodbye and to see him go though, knowing I’ll only see him 8 days of the next 28.

I’m going to use this time to try to do my best with eating and exercising and see where I am weight wise in a month.

I was feeling a little better by the time of my first break, so I had PB & Banana toast for 4 points.

It never tasted so good! I also made a green smoothie to bring back to my desk. I usually only list the fruits/veggies I put into the smoothie, but I do use yogurt and ice also. I used the other half of the banana from my toast, 1 cup spinach and 2 oranges for 1 point total.

For lunch, I had leftover Ham and Cheese casserole. This stuff is delicious. It has ham, cheese, rice, and broccoli. I also had squash and iced tea for a total of 6 points.

For dessert, I had FF/SF Vanilla pudding:

And I drizzled a little caramel on it for a total of 3 points.

I was drowsy by my last break, so I brewed some Dark Chocolate Raspberry coffee and mixed in a packet of Sweet-n-Low for 0 points.

I also had a sweet craving, so I had a Ghirardelli dark chocolate with strawberry filling square for 2 points.

I worked a full day today- didn’t even get asked to sign out early! It’s always kind of a relief because then I don’t have to make that choice.

For supper, I whipped together a stir fry and served it over brown rice. It was chicken w/ all kinds of veggies in teriyaki sauce. I also baked a Trader Joe’s Vegetable egg roll for a total of 10 points.

As you can see in the picture, I accidently left the kitchen for too long and kind of burned the stir fry- oops!

For dessert, I had a Weight Watcher’s Dark Chocolate Raspberry ice cream bar for 2 points.

I really LOVE these things!

That leaves me with 2 points left for the night. I think I’m going to call it a night early because I’m tired! I didn’t sleep so well last night.

Let the count down begin for when Hubby comes home for the weekend! 4 days left!
