Day 34
Food. It’s Good. Let’s Talk About It.
Breakfast: This morning I made bacon and eggs for breakfast (6 points) and I totally forgot to take a picture. The breakfast was awesome as always, but I think we might need to find some other healthier breakfast options. Any suggestions? (Also a 1 point orange!)
Lunch: We had leftovers! I use to hate leftovers with a passion so I would instead call up people and go eat out which definitely contributed to my weight gain. Now, I really look forward to them for some reason. So the tacos with sour cream are 4 points but today we just had meat and salsa so they were 3 points a piece so it was 6 points (As you can see on our TV, we were watching The Biggest Loser during lunch. I always feel awkward and almost guilty when I eat and watch BL at the same time. Does anyone else feel that way?) For dessert we had leftover pumpkin pie and it had me smittened. That 4 point slice was amazing.
Exercise: My bud Matt and I played racquetball this afternoon and I dominated the first game… and then lost the rest of the games lol but not by much. It was a blast but I am pooped. Since we played for about 70 minutes, Calorie Count calculated that I burned 1,237 calories. Legit.
Dinner: We were in a bit of a rush so we warmed up last night’s chili but there wasn’t much left so I only had 3 points worth of chili which particularly sucks because it was especially good tonight. (Maybe because I was starving?) No Bueno.
Dessert: So Megan has been looking for a low point cupcake recipe for a Halloween shindig we are having this weekend and out friend Jade suggested the Weight Watchers Chocolate Cupcake Recipe. She made them in a mini muffin pan so they were only 1 point a piece. They were really good and chocolaty so I ended up eating about 6 points worth of them. We brought some to church and the reception was overall pretty good!
So as of 10:00, I have eaten a total of 26 points and I have 19 exercise points. Holy crap. In theory I have as many points available as I have eaten today. Needless to say I’m a little grouchy and hungry, but I’m obviously not going to eat 26 points worth of food at 10:00 at night. This conundrum kind of describes how weird this day has been. Here’s hoping for a better tomorrow. See ya then.
One More Thing! Happy Birthday to my Father-in-Law Mark! Thanks for all of your support of the blog and for raising such an awesome daughter 
Sounds like you are on the right track! Good luck with your weight loss goals
You’re trying to kill me with tiny chocolate cupcakes???? I think my blog name shows my obsession with cupcakes. Though, even better than chocolate is using Spice Cake Mix with a can of pumpkin. Everyone at work LOVES them and they have no idea they are lowfat! Sometimes, I’ll even add a tiny bit of cream cheese icing. Yum! I’m definitely going to have to make some of those soon.
Some of my breakfast favorites: Wafflewiches(PB & Banana), Jimmy Dean Ready to eat Turkey Sausage Patties chopped and scrambled with egg beaters, I also do chopped up smoked ham in egg beaters and top with a slice of WW American cheese and tomatoes. That’s one of my favorites. Honestly, I hate breakfast and have to force myself to eat it. I also sometimes just have Flavored Greek Yogurt and Granola. I didn’t think I would like it but now I’m obsessed!
Yesterday I sat down to eat lunch and watched biggest loser…I always feel guilty. lol
I had tacos for dinner yesterday- YUM!
