For breakfast this morning, I had Cheerios with milk along with a colorful bowl of fruit (1/2 peach, 1/2 kiwi, strawberries and blueberries) for 4 points.
I spent some time getting household things taken care of, prepping for supper, and other various tasks. And then it was time for homework.
I sipped on coffee with pumpkin spice creamer for 1 point. I’m disappointed because the little Starbucks logo came off of my mug! It wasn’t from Starbucks…but still! Now it just looks like an ordinary mug.
Even with the coffee, I couldn’t stay awake. My eyes kept shutting while I was reading. So after finishing one book that I had to read, I took a 10 minute power nap. I always know I’m tired when I can fall asleep for 10 minutes!
A few hours later, I ate some egg beaters with laughing cow cheese for 2 points.
On my way to school I ate a wrap for 4 points.
1 cup of grapes for 0 points.
And a crispy bar for 4 points.
I had two tests today and I think I did well on both of them. So far I’ve gotten 100% on every assignment and test—knock on wood!! I want to make this last semester a successful one and I want to graduate on a good note and so far so good.
After class, I had to do a little shopping for some weekend plans we have! Can’t wait!! I will do a post on the “event” this weekend.
I was STARVING by that time, not having eaten anything since 9:30 and it was 4:15! My school days are so weird eating wise, which is why I try to eat more in the mornings. I grabbed a diet cherry Pepsi for 0 points.
I also ate a light cheese stick for 1 point.
On my way home I ate a banana for 0 points.
I kind of lost some resolve and had some snacks and didn’t measure what I was eating. Oofta. I cannot let myself get that hungry.
For supper, I made Greek Chicken. It was DELISH! It is made with tomatoes, feta and black olives. I also had a Schwan’s Garlic Herb bisquit for a total of 11 points.
I had a side salad with cheese, ranch and cashews for 3 points.
And finished it up with FF/SF chocolate pudding for 2 points.
If I hadn’t done a little extra snacking, I would have had 1 point left for the day—so besides that little episode, I did well today.
Now hubby and I are going to go for a walk so I’ll get some activity in. Tomorrow is weigh in day and I know I’ll have a loss, but I’m not so sure I’ll make it to Onederland like I wanted to. Oh well! I will one of these days—although I’m not giving up on tomorrow!
I'm cheering for you to get to Onederland tomorrow!!! You are doing great!! Hopefully I won't be too far behind you on your trip to Onederland!
ReplyDeleteLooks delish :)
ReplyDeleteOOOH....good luck at weigh in Alissa. I'm sending light thoughts down to you!!!
ReplyDeleteOnderland will come when you least expect it! :) One morning you will wake up and show a big loss and be shrieking in excitement in your undies on the scale! Well.... at least that's what played out in my house one day. haha I hate mindless snacking. Ugh. It just leaves you thinking "what do I count that as?!" Happens to all of us. Best wishes for tomorrow's WI!!
ReplyDeleteGood job. Thanks for sharing your food. I notice that you mostly eat cheerios for breakfast everyday. Do they fill you up pretty good? I need to find a low point cereal that fills me up.
ReplyDeleteEven though you snacked like you did, you counted the points and that's what counts. :) Keep chuggin' at it and you'll make it to your goal :)
I love that you not only post what you ate, but that you post pictures too! It's amazing how I can really get into a rut, eating almost the same thing every day - it's great to see some ideas from someone else (I'm so totally visual). Good luck with your weigh in tomorrow!!
