Week 4, Day 6

breakfast:
low-cal English muffin with 1/2 T PB (2 pts)
coffee (1 pt)

lunch
1 cup Progresso light soup (1 pt)
big salad w/romaine, baby spinach, carrots, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, garbanzo beans, beets (2 pts?)
balsamic vinegar for dressing (0 pts)
1 orange (1 pt)

snack
Starbucks tall Skinny cinnamon dolce latte (2 pts)
This was an impulse snack with a co-worker and had I known it would be 2 pts, I would have passed on it. I'd rather have string cheese for 2 pts. I'm a salty snack gal.

dinner
korean kimchi stew (kimchi (0 pts), 1/2 sliced zucchini (0 pts), scallions (0 pts), tofu (3 pts), tuna in water (3 pts), 1/2 T honey (? pts), 1 T red pepper paste (1 pt), 1 T soy paste (1 pt))
1 cup brown rice (4 pts)

I only ate half the stew so I guess that gives me about 4-5 pts for the stew plus 4 for the rice.

I skipped dinner last night b/c by the time I got home from Benji's obedience class, it was past 9:00pm. I was really tired so I took a shower and went straight to bed. I know I shouldn't be skipping meals though, so I have to do better. I could have eaten a 5pt Lean Cuisine and only gone 1 pt over my daily allowance and it would have taken 5 minutes to heat up.

Shows you how lazy I truly am.

I am wearing a sweater with wide horizontal stripes today. I think it was a mistake. Once again, I looked at myself in the mirror and thought I looked pretty good. I took a self-portrait on my point-and-shoot before I left the house today and I looked chubby in the picture. Damn that skinny mirror!

I can't wait to hit my weight-loss goal.
