And we're back! Sorry it has been a while. First, I got sick, then Chris got sick. (I think I might have had something to do with that.)
So that we a legit reason for not eating well. But then we went to the Maryland Renaissance festival (ribs! beer! potato chips! cookies) and then had our tasting for the wedding (secret delicious food!). And along the way, there may have been some burrito bowls, barbecue sandwiches, and creamy pasta dishes. I would say it was a nice break from points counting, but my body is pretty unhappy with the choices I have been making. Anyway, I'm not weighing myself until this weekend, because sometimes ignorance is bliss.
Anyway, onward and upward! Monday lunch was three ounces of chicken, half of an apple, a half serving of whole grain pearled cous cous with tomatoes and a teaspoon of olive oil, and four glasses of water. Total: 6 points
Dinner was three ounces of Lothar's ham. (My first time ever making ham in the oven--it was so small that I cooked it in a bread pan! This is what happens when you don't need ham for a crowd.) I also had a salad with tomatoes and a teaspoon of oil. And cheesy broccoli rice that I made myself and is much healthier than the mix you can buy at the store, with only six ingredients. And four more glasses of water. Total: 10 points
Since I needed dairy, snacky time was milk & cereal, plus cheese and crackers. Total: 8 points
Vitamin: 1/1
Healthy Oil: 2/2
Fruits/Veggies: 5/5
Protein: 4/2
Whole Grains: yes, cous cous, brown rice
Exercise: yes--30 minutes of yoga
Total: 24/26 points
Weekly Points: 0/49 for the week
Overall, I give the day a Kate. And since yesterday was Canadian Thanksgiving, please enjoy this picture of her in Montreal.
