Today was lunch at home. Our neighbors sent us home with a pineapple, papaya, and coconut after the big Lost Premiere Bash they had on Tuesday. I adore fresh pineapple. So, of course, I made my meal around it today.
Grilled Pineapple and Cheese Sandwich
Crackers with Ranch Dip
Pudding Cup
A very yummy lunch if I say so myself.
I feel compelled to tell you that I don't eat out all the time. It feels like every time I post my lunch I post where I have eaten. Oh, well. I should just not let it bother me.
Today was our Play-Date Wednesday. Instead of Chick Fil A, we went to the closer McDonald's. (Not nearly as good, or as good for me.)
Riley had a Happy Meal. Chicken nuggets and Fries.
I had a Happy Meal. Double Cheeseburger and Apples. I ate some of his fries...he had some of my apples.
Total Points: 14 (almost half a days point right there!)
I really don't like eating out at McDonald's because the amount of food you get is so small for the amount of points (calories, fat, etc.) But they are our only local restaurant that has a playground.
I did my errands in Huntsville today. We ate at Bitty's favorite lunch place -- Sam's Club. It is economical and doesn't require saying "Shhhhh" over and over again.
I ate a hot dog and soda. He ate a HUGE slice of pizza. We both ate for well under $4.
Bitty and I went to a friend's 6th birthday party today for lunch.
He ate....
2 slices of turkey (call it ham if you expect him to eat it though)
string cheese
mandarin oranges
Goldfish crackers
Birthday Cake, of course
I ate two helpings of delicious taco salad. (It is a delightfully easy dish. 1head of lettuce. 1 lb ground meat with taco seasonings. 1 bag of crushed Doritos. 1 bottle of Ranch dressing. When we make it at our house....I do not use all the dressing...but the rest of our playgroup follows the recipe above.) And of course, birthday cake and ice cream.
I did not dare count the points of this meal. However, the meal did not have an effect on the scale this morning, so I am calling yesterday a success.
I had a tuna salad sandwich on an english muffin with lettuce and a sugar free pudding cup. I ate a couple of bites of leftover cornbread casserole.
Total points: 4 pts. (plus the points for the cornbread casserole.)
My preschool son and I have a playdate with several families every week. Most weeks we go to Chick Fil A, because of the playground is indoors and the food is better than McDonald's.
Today I had my usual.
8pk of ChickFilA nuggets
small chicken soup
Diet Dr Pepper
....I might have swiped two or three of Bitty's waffle fries.
....and then I talked myself into a Kiddie Cup of ice cream.
I am on Weight Watchers and the point total was about 12 pts. (It was worth every point though.)
