It's been a whirlwind! Yesterday was my mother's 80th birthday. Of course I had to take her out to eat. You're only 80 once! That being said, I told her I was taking her to the local family restaurant and I had done my research. I was all set to spend 15 points for dinner and have catfish, baked potato and green beans. Yum!! Unfortunately... she decided she wanted Mexican food and since it was her birthday, that's where we went. Total game changer. YIKES! But, I did my best, and turns out, I still had rollover points.
I was seriously worried that I'd be up when I weighed this morning due to all the salt in the food (not to mention the FAT), but thankfully, I was down another pound! Yahoo! 8.4 lbs since Monday. It's a miracle y'all! I can't even believe it. I NEVER lose weight. The struggle is so real. But I'm here to attest... this is working for me!
FOOD - DAY 5:
Breakfast: Finally a satisfying breakfast!! Success! Peanut Butter Toast (2 slices of Wonder whole-grain white bread = 3 points... doubled since I had two of them, so 6 points).
Lunch: 2 Soft Tacos (2 Mission Carb Balance tortillas (these are soft, white and delicious!) 2 points each, 99% Fat Free ground turkey (0 points), taco seasoning (0 points), Kraft Fat Free cheddar cheese (0 points) = 4 points total.
Dinner: The Mexican food mentioned above... hold on tight. It's a killer. 7 tortilla chips (3 points), 1/4 cup white queso (3 points), 2 tostadas with beans and cheese (14 points) = 20 points. TWENTY! Ugh!
Snacks: 1 Kiwi (0 points) and Grapes (0 points). Let me just say that this, too, is almost a miracle. I have never been a fruit eater.
All that, and I still had points left at the end of the day. 100% success!
