Thursday 4-19-12

Hello friends!  Today was another successful day.  It was also the first day I stayed within my daily points target without reaching into my weekly points, so yay me!  I didn't go to the gym today.  Normally my husband watches the kids so I can go to the gym but today I went to a couple stores instead. It was mostly just for window shopping but was fun just the same.  Seeing cute clothes I will soon fit into was motivating for me.  Later on hubby took our son to play in the backyard while our daughter napped so that I could still exercise at home.  I did aerobics and weight training in our living room while dinner was marinating in the fridge.  It feels good to say that I have exercised every day this week (so far.)  Anywho, this is what I ate today:

Breakfast (9 pts)

Tomato-basil egg white omelet with white onions, neufchatel and reduced fat feta, 1 link of turkey sausage and 2 skim milk/fat free hazelnut lattes with Splenda. 

Lunch (6 pts)

Protein-style (no bun) 96/4 burger wrapped in large leaves of organic romaine lettuce with organic tomatoes, red onions, 1/2 oz sharp cheddar, pickles and 1 Tbsp homemade "animal style" sauce. (An In-N-Out thing, and very close if I do say so myself.)

Snack (3 pts)

Homemade guacamole rolled in a yellow corn tortilla

Dinner (15 pts)

Tequila-lime chicken (with boneless skinless chicken), a medley of 1/2 c. organic black beans, garlic, onions, 1/4 c. organic sweet corn and homemade pico de gallo, and a small salad of organic greens with 1 Tbsp spicy ranch. It's not pictured but I ended up adding pico de gallo to the salad as well, right before eating.  Oh, and a  homemade frozen strawberry margarita as a nice treat. Perfect dinner!

I ate 33 points of 33 points today and it feels like I ate a lot more than that because I don't have even a hint of night time munchies.  Hooray for being back on track!  Goodnight everyone and thanks for reading!
