Photo Food Journal Week 3 Day 5

Snow, snow, blowing snow and oh so cold.  Stayed indoors all day with hubby staying warm.  Don't think I have to go out tomorrow either.  But Thursday is another story.  Later.

For breakfast  I made myself a bowl of grits with 1 t. butter.  Then made a pot of Chili about 11:30.  For dinner hubby picked beef kabasa sausages and sauerkraut.  I had read something about washing off the sauerkraut and thought I'd try that since I don't really like the stuff.  It wasn't bad.  I ate it with 2 oz of the meat (5pts) and 1/2 c. canned corn. Not the healthiest day of eating.  Should have had fruit and fresh veggies.  

Grits with butter

1 1/2 cups chili and 1 oz of baked tortilla chips

1 corn muffin and 1 tea. butter (6 pts)

Yummy pickle.

2 oz of meat and 1/2 c. corn with sauerkraut

 I think its time to call it quits for the day and therefore not eat anymore.  I didn't have dairy today, nor the veggies and fruits I should have.   Stayed within points though.

Photo Food Journal Week 3 Day 4

January 31, Monday.  Getting ready for the snow storm moving in.   Quick breakfast below, then ran to the office and ended up getting really early paycheck so now I had bank run to do.  Thus the cute little lime sucker.  I didn't have time for lunch so grabbed the mocha fiber bar out of my glove box.  It really was not very good.  Not at all like the Kelloggs brand.

2 Turkey Sausages with one bread and 8 oz milk for 7 pts.

Is this even a full point?

Won't be buying this flavor again.  Yuck! 

OK, OK, not the best meal.  KFC YUM!

Didn't quite add up my 2 chicken breasts, biscuit, mashed tators with gravy and cole slaw.  I did take the skin off for the most part.  I actually ordered grilled and got home with home style. Bummer.  I really like their grilled chicken.

94% ff popcorn about 6 cups.

2 snack well cookies 2 pts plus milk 3 pts

 I actually had 1 1/2 cups of milk for 4.5 pts.  It was the last of the carton.  Those cookies are a great bargain at only 1 point each. 

Photo Food Journal Week 3 Day 3

Sunday, January 30, 2011.  I have pictures to download from my iPhone.  I had a lovely omelet for breakfast with one egg plus one egg white, peppers of all 3 colors and a touch of green onion.  I also had 3 turkey sausage links.  Later that day, running around with my hubby,    I ate 1 tator tot and then had dinner out with friends at the Interurban.  I had an 8 oz sirloin, sweet potato fries, steamed broccoli, and 1/4th of a beer muffin.  I later that evening had 94% ff popcorn.  I still am not sure of the fries, but counted them as 10 pts and my steak as 10 pts.  This day took me over by 5 pts of my extras.   Still a good day for being a weekend.

Photo Food Journal Week 3 Day 2

Saturday, January 29.  Slept in pretty late so made a nice lunch of Manwich Sloppy Joes.  So great to be back on track.  I also had a bite of my DH's pizza for 3 pts, and a 1/2 c. milk.   Almost caught up with my posts now.    This was also a special evening as my DH and I got to babysit our DARLING GRANDDAUGHTER.  She was a gem.

2 Sloppy Joes on light buns with lots of pickles (10 pts)

Cole Slaw used only 1 T dressing @ 1.5 pts

Fresh Pineapple @ ZERO pts.

Invented Bok Choy salad with Asian dressing and little beef.

Lovely piece of chocolate brought to me that night.

Photo Food Journal Week 4 Day 1

January 28.  Doing GREAT.  Back on track.  Fiber Bar (3 pt) as I ran out the door to get to my WW meeting.  Lost 2.6 this week and since huge gain last week it was very encouraging since I hadn't really tracked.

For Lunch I came home and made myself a Roast Beef Sandwich with Swiss for 5 pts.

Dinner was 3 pieces of Ginger Sushi (the only one I have ever liked) and a beef stir fry.  I estimated dinner to only be about 8 pts.  Also had a salad with ginger dressing.  After we had our congregational services that night I still had 13 pts left.  I created a nice little dessert for myself.  Check it out below.

My yummy roast beef sandwich.

Sushi roll x 3 plus stir fry and salad

Banana, Peanut Butter, Choco pudding cup and 6 T Ready Whip (8 pts)

8 oz 0% milk for 2 more.

Photo Food Journal Week 3 Days 4-7

The pictures start fading at this point. My tracking journal is sure empty.  This will be my only post with no pictures.  I have no idea what I've eaten these 4 days and I sure don't want to strain my brain thinking.    This will get me caught up to the fresh, fresh start for January 28.

 

Photo Food Journal Week 3 Days 2/3

Here are my pictures of the next 2 days or at least what I have of them.  We did go to a movie in the afternoon on January 22 seeing "The King's Speech".  Great movie BTW.  Oatmeal for Breakfast, City Bites for lunch, NO POPCORN at movie, and nice steak dinner made at home.

Regular oatmeal with some honey.

City Bites Turkey and Provolone

My favorite Baked Lays.

4 oz of sirloin, green beans and baked potato skins.

Had Taco Bell for Brunch and added lots of tomatoes at home and had 8 oz of 0% milk too.  For dinner had my Lamb and Green Bean stew.  Don't know what else I ate that day.  Sure can't remember.

Taco Bell Tacos on Sunday 1/23 for brunch, LOL

Lamb and Green Beans with buttered french bread. 1/23

Photo Food Journal Week 3 Day 1

This was a good day of tracking and taking all my pictures.  The fresh start for Week 3.  Again I started off good, then just faded away. These pictures are out of order, but it's too late to try and figure out how to get them all moved.  You get what you get.  All Chinese food was at dinner at House of Hunan in Norman.  My Tracker states I had a Fiber Bar (3 pts) and 1 1/2 c. 0% milk for 3 pts.  I also nibbled on Carrot and celery sticks. 

Veggie Spring Roll

A few bites of my DD curry chicken

Beef Broccoli and brown rice.

Chicken sizzling rice soup (broth based)

One fortune cookie of course.

Awful late lunch. Grilled Chick sand from Braums.  I did not eat the bun.

2 of these late night.

Yummy Orange sometime that day.

Photo Food Journal Week 2 Days 6/7

Subway Roast Beef with Cheddar and chips.

Jack in the Box Tacos (4 total)

Only a few of the things I ate these 2 days. 

Some of the healthier items at the party.

A reminder to me of the Brisket, Potato Salad, Cole Slaw, and yummy rolls.

The fun, fun cake I made for the special birthday dinner held at my home on Thurs 1/20.

Photo Food Journal Week 2 Days 4/5

I found some more odd pictures with the dates from my camera so I know when they were taken.  I only have a few items in my tracker and most without points. 

Turkey Sandwich with salad for only 4 pts

The Cake I made for my Granddaughter Birthday.

Pear and Yogurt 1/17

Wonderful Spaghetti dinner made by my son.  I think I had second helping.

My one piece of spice cake 1/17.

A Pineapple Coconut cake from Gengis Grill

OK, Tuesday, January 18,  this was a very bad day.  The only things in my tracker are little bits of junk out of my pantry as I remember I cleaned it out that day.  I did have some leftover bean soup for 6 pts.  We went to Gengis Grill for dinner and I had a stir fry, but then indulged in the above dessert because of pure boredom.  There were 11 of us there for my DDIL's birthday and my DH wanted to get through the line early.  Well, we did and therefore were finished eating long before the others.  Thus the boredom cake. LOL  No other pictures of anything that day.  A big YIKES! Day for sure.

Photo Food Journal Week 2 Days 2/3

January 30, 2011.   OK, here I am again, finally.  This has been crazy.  I started off so great for that first week, then downhill after that for the next 2.  I have a partial excuse of "my camera broke".  But, real reason is there were so many parties, activities, me eating lousy that I just failed to keep track and take pictures of all that I ate.  I made so many cakes and had frosting so readily available that my resistance was futile (as the BORG said in STNG).  I have lots of odd pictures from the last 2 weeks and will make several posts out of them.    I will then start fresh blogs for this week starting this last Friday, January 28.  So sorry I have been AWOL.  


The picture below of the cupcakes show them, I DID NOT eat all of those. LOL  Besides the Chick Fa A salad I show in my tracker that I also had some Taco Soup, baked tortilla chips, pickles, and about 4 mini cupcakes.  I show a pear in there somewhere too.








On Sunday, 1/16 I show in my tracker Grits with 1 t. Butter for 3 pts, Soup for 4 pts, 3 mini cupcakes for 6 pts, nuts for 4 pts,  more nuts for another 4 pts, then the baked potato, chili, cheese, salad with dressing, some feta, the mozzarella salad, then even some brownies are listed AND some spice cake with a notation of BAD DAY!!!
