Well, I was down 1.8 pounds last night! I was up quite a bit the week before, so I was hoping it would be more, but I'll will take it! I don't usually post my whole day of eating on Thursday, cause after Weigh In at 7pm, I usually enjoy myself and eat something that I normally don't the rest of the week, cause I have a whole week before I have to weigh in again! Horrible...isn't it? ;-) I actually didn't do that bad last night, probably only went 7-9 points over my daily allowance points, so I guess I'll share my day!
Breakfast - 2 cups Jumbo Krispies, 1 cup milk -
5 points - Normally I eat a bigger breakfast on WI day, cause I don't eat much else throughout the day
Lunch - 1 1/2 TB Peanut Butter, 1 TB Sugar Free Jelly on a Flat Out Light Wrap -
4 points
This is the jelly I just bought and tried....REALLY good! It's 0 points too! Only 10 calories for a tablespoon!
Then I didn't eat until weigh in. Oh yeah, did I mention my friend and I RODE OUR BIKES to WW tonight???? If you knew where I lived, you would know it's a feat to do! It's probably about 3 miles away, and the way there is pretty simple, most of it is straight down a hill. I don't have to tell you what that means on the way back....oh my....it's so steep on the way back that we end up having to walk some of the way cause you lose your balance! It's great exercise though..I must have earned a few activity points for all the extra snacking I did that night!
At Weight Watchers, I had a Fiber Plus granola bar to try to give me some energy for the ride home -
2 points - and then they gave us all a sample of the new Chocolate Brownie -
1 point. I LOVED it, but the problem is, they only come in 2 point bars, although the sample they gave us was only 1 point. I just can't justify spending all the money on the bars when they are 2 points...cause I can buy lots of 2 points snacks for way less money. Oh well...they were delicious though if anyone was wondering! :-)
Once we got home ( barely ), we had my yummy dinner that I had made earlier that day....Chicken Baseballs. It was the first time I had tried the recipe, and let me tell you, they were amazing!! I had 2 people at my house that don't do Weight Watchers, and they both LOVED them! I was so excited that they turned out so good, and I will make them again for sure! I paired it up with some steamed broccoli with a piece of 2% cheese on it, which made it
7 points for the whole meal.
Dessert....I made a parfait with Vitatops, mini chocolate chips, sugar free vanilla pudding, sugar free chocolate pudding, and FF whipped cream. I really have to say, I'm not in love with my vitatops...sniff sniff...I really wanted to LOVE them. I guess I have too much of a sweet tooth, and they are kinda dry and bland for me. If anyone has any ideas or recipes with them that you love, PLEASE share! I just spent $35 on them...so I want to use them! The parfait ended up being
6 points.
Ok, then I snacked a little after the kids went to bed....I had a handful of chocolate animal crackers with 1/2 cup of milk, and then a mini fudge round! AHHH! It was probably
8 points or so. Not too bad since I've eaten like a 1/2 a package of Oreos before on a Thursday....ok...maybe not quite that many....but almost!
I will leave you with the recipe for Chicken Baseballs...let me know if you try them and what you think! Thank you for leaving a comment also...it keeps me wanting to post more!
