January 12, 2010 - Day 9

Another good day. I hope this continues! I really do think that this blog is part of the reason for my success. I know that each night I have to account for everything I eat so I can put it down here. It's crazy, as I realize that only 1 or 2 people are reading it, but if it works, it works.

My day -

For breakfast

1/2 of an english muffin w/reduced-fat margarine (100 calories; 3 points)
* I would have had the whole thing but Riley wanted the other half. And I'm a good mommmy. :)

1 serving of Total w/skim milk (140 calories; 2 points)
* This was actually good!

1/2 cup of coffee w/vanilla creamer (35 calories; 1 point)
* I upped the calories and points for my 1/2 cup because I realized that I had been putting more creamer in then I thought. Good thing I went out and got the fat-free kind. Not that it'll be completely better...

For lunch

1 Lean Cuisine Macaroni and Cheese (200 calories; 3 points)
* Not as good as the real stuff, duh! :)

Water

For dinner

1 fillet of breaded, parmesan dover sole (240 calories; 5 points)
* OMG! Was this good! I'm always on the hunt for good fish recipes, because I never can seem to make it that well. I found a recipe online and it's super easy; bread the fish w/the cheese and breadcrumbs (+ pepper and lemon zest if you wish) and put under broiler for 3-5 minutes per side depending on thickness. Awesome! Riley gobbled her initial portion right up and kept asking for more and more!

1 serving of mint peas (100 calories; 2 points)
* A big hit also with both Riley and me!

Water

Snacks

1/2 cup of coffee (35 calories; 1 point)

Bites of Riley's lunch and a cut-up pear (???; 3 points (?))

Mini Delight Chocolately Mint 90 Calorie Pack (90 calories; 1 point)

Total Calories (roughly): 1100 (I have no idea; it was 990 w/o factoring my bits of Riley's food, so I added on another 110. Seemed reasonable to me.)

Total WW Points: 21

Exercise
Nothing. Riley wouldn't leave me alone for more than 5 seconds, so going off and doing any type of exercise thing was not going to happen. I would have taken her for a walk around the neighborhood, but it was raining out all day. Yuck. :(
