I had my Vega blended with 1 cup of unsweetened Almond milk, a small banana and some ice. Then I'm having fresh strawberries and light whipped cream for dessert! YUMMY!
lol I couldn't get my hubby to go out and get an Angel Food Cake so I'm a couple hundred calories under my eating range. Oh well. I got close.

BigRedAngel- Your dinners always sound so good. Yesterday I ate a huge amount of chocolate, so I skipped dinner. My stomach hurt anyway. :) Today I am planning a healthy vegetarian dinner though.

My husband asked me to bake some chicken breast, vegetables and a corn bread. I'm not a fan of chicken breast or vegestables. I didn't have many calories left for dinner but I wanted something I would be satisfied with so I wouldn't be looking to snack later on. I ate a piece of cornbread with milk. No snacking afterwards.

Colleen I love your soup recipe. I've had patato soup before but your recipe seems to make it much more filling with the cauliflower added to it. I haven't seen surviver in a long time. I wouldn't know what's going on.

I had crock pot chicken breast and baked potatoe ;-) Today for lunch I made a smoothie..... I was out of yogurt and tofu .... So I used 1/4 cup of Crystal Light Tea 1 med banana 1/4 cup pineapple w/ natural juice 1/2 cup of canteloupe 1 tsp of cider vinegar helps with gas blended well .... makes about a 10 ounce glass if you want it sweeter you can add aspartame or truvia.... I believe it has about 256 calories and is very filling...if you want omit the vinegar... I have a gas problem with certain fruits and the vinegar is and old fashioned remedy that helps..

My stomach was a little upset, so I just had steamed California Blend veggies with a small amount of cheese on them, with Butter Buds :)
The other night my mom insisted on chicken tacos- I took some of the chicken meat, heated it up, sprinkled a very little amount of cheese and placed it on a lovely bowl of salad- warm chicken taco salad!!! Saved me a bunch in the carb department

New Recipe!!! Check it out on shared recipe's...I used 1 can of tyson's grilled canned chicken breast, 1 can of Lo sodium corn, 1 can of mexican chili beans, 5 tblsps of salsa, 1 tblsp of chili powder to make a mexican chicken chili...I did not add any additional salt or condiments oor seasonings... Heated the chicken and corn first then the beans to bubbling followed up by the rest of the ingriedients and in under 30 minutes I had an incredible dinner..If you like sprinkle a lo-fat cheese of lo-fat sour cream and enjoy...I did the cheese and used the Tostitos whole wheat scoops and only had a cup and I was stuffed....After entering it in the recipe database, I found out it only has 180 calories per serving excluding the cheese... If you try it I hope you like it...
