Day 11

Thursday, February 3rd, 2011

Woke up today not feeling wonderful and a lovely fever blister on my lip.... ugh! The last thing I wanted to do was bite anything.... Oatmeal it is! By the way, the lower sugar instant oatmeal is lower points then the high fiber. When I was getting breakfast ready, I grabbed 2 packets of the apples n cinnamon thinking that is what I usually have. Added the points and it was 3 points per packet, hmmm, I made one. 2 pieces of delightful whole wheat toast with I can't believe it's not butter and 1/2 a cup of milk. I was full and it was 7 points.

I didn't have much time for lunch - my cleaning spree continues so I had a serving of reduced fat wheat thins (16 crackers!!) and a wedge of laughing cow light spreadable cheese. This is a great snack, throw in an apple and I am completely satisfied for only 4 points.

Dinner consisted of my favorite new found pasta - Alfredo made with cauliflower - Yumm! I decided it was time to treat us to a dessert tonight. I found a fun recipe on Weight watchers for Strawberry Shortcake Kabobs. I made 4 of them at 4 points each. I cut strawberries in half and alternated those and cut up store bought shortcake (I used the mini cups found in the produce section) I cut them up into 6 pieces each and then drizzled with chocolate. This was a 1/2 cup of semi sweet choco chips melted with 1 Tbsp of butter. It was a yummy treat that my whole family loved.
