I spent several hours at the mall today with the kids, my sister and my one-year-old niece. We took our girls to have their portraits done and then we window shopped for a long time. We also stopped and had lunch at a Chinese place in the mall, and since it's not a chain I wasn't able to find nutritional info on it. I had to guess at the points, which I did by using Panda Express nutritionals since the food was comparable. I have been doing that a lot lately, and that's not a good thing! I am not happy with how this week has gone, food & exercise-wise. I was doing so well and then I started to self-sabotage by not planning as well, giving in to temptations (like Pizza Hut drive-thrus, Denny's, Little Caesar's, Chinese food in the mall, etc.) I need to snap out of it and get my head back in this. I am slacking big time. I can't keep using exhaustion and unforeseen events as an excuse to eat crap! I went deeper in to "the red" today, sigh. Anyway, this is today's menu:
Breakfast (9 pts)
1/2 c. egg whites, 2 slices center-cut bacon, 2 slices Sara Lee Delightful whole wheat toast with Smart Balance Light & 1 tsp strawberry preserves, and 2 skinny hazelnut lattes made in my usual way.
Lunch at Chinex in the mall (24 pts-ish)
Chow mein noodles, fried rice, mushroom chicken, broccoli beef, 1 cream cheese/crab stuffed rangoon and Diet Pepsi. I actually split this plate with my son though, so I probably ate 1/2 to 2/3 of it.
No snacks today, a mistake since it had me ravenous at lunch & dinner...
Dinner (20 pts, even though I only had 3ish left, oops.)
Chicken fajitas with onions and red/yellow/green peppers cooked in canola oil, homemade salsa & guacamole, 1 oz Baked Tostitos Scoops, a whole wheat tortilla, light sour cream, homemade refried beans with cheese mixed in and a Diet Shasta Lime-Lemon Twist.
I
need to do better tomorrow. Weigh-in is Monday and I fear it won't be pretty. Well, baby girl just woke up crying so off I go! Goodnight all!
