Day 5

Friday, January 28h 2011

Today I had a pajama party with my little girls - we stayed home and watched movies in our PJ's all day.... she thought is was the coolest thing and let's face it, it was a glorified way for me to not get ready today!

My little ones wanted waffles today and my immediate response was - No, I can't handle you having those and I can't! But then I thought about it and realized I could have them.... Oh, happy day! I had purchase the nutrigrain low fat waffles and it was 4 points for 2 waffles. I topped with spray butter and Aunt Jemima butter lite syrup (the best in my opinion) I paired this with some canned tropical fruit (drained and rinsed) and a half cup of milk. We were a group of sugary, sweet little girls for breakfast.

I wanted to keep my points low today because it's Friday and I have a Date In with my hubby. He picked up a movie on his way home and I put some Junior Mints (16 mints for 3 points!) in the freezer this morning, I will explain.... we make popcorn and eat it with the frozen Junior Mints, not just with it but in the same bites. If you haven't tried this you are probably thinking WHAT?! but trust me, it is the BEST!

Dinner consisted of Pan seared chicken with garlic sauce, lemon pasta and broccoli. The chicken and pasta were both new recipes - thank you, weight watchers online! I am usually not a huge fan of garlic and when I saw that this recipe called for 12 cloves of garlic I was hesitant but we tried it anyway... so glad we did! The chicken itself was seasoned and quite honestly it was a little too much but the sauce rocked. The pasta was a new one for me... it had an egg in it. Ummm, yea that freaked me out a little. I trusted it and again, so glad. Yummy dinner with 10 points left for our movie!
