Fast Food

Yay for Friday! Where did the week go?? Time is really flying. Unfortunately, my weight is not “flying off” as I had hoped. I took a peek at the scale this morning and it looks the same. I guess, I can’t expect much since I had a pretty good loss last week. Besides, I haven’t been perfectly staying within my POINTS. Too many BLT’s. Not the sandwiches, more like the chocolate. We’ll see what the scale says for my last BLBE weigh-in tomorrow.

No time to work out this morning. I had a coffee date with my pregger friend, Rosemary (who is due this month!), so I had to get out the door early. Before I left, I had a quick bowl of Quaker Crunchy Corn Bran (3/4 c.) with 1/2 c. unsweetened vanilla Almond Breeze and strawberries for 2 POINTS…

While coffee talking, I had a tall nonfat iced latte with sugar-free white chocolate syrup for 2 POINTS…

Our morning coffee ran into lunch time (we’re so chatty!). I had to stop at the store on the way home and by the time I made it home, I was so hungry and shaky! I grabbed the quickest thing I could find in the fridge – salmon salad. I spread it on an Ezekiel Bun and had a side of TJ’s Sour Cream and Onion Rice Chips and carrots for a body fueling 7 POINTS…

Then I did the happy dance because my shipment of Vitatops arrived!!!! I was down to my last one. I ordered these the other day and chose the Mother’s Day Pack which allowed you to choose from a list of your favorites. I chose Deep Chocolate (my #1 fave), Fudgy Peanut Butter Chip and a new one to try - Banana Nut! I am soooo excited to try that one! Mmmm… a box of goodies….

With this Mother’s Day promotion, I got this “Gift of Health” for free…

A box of 12 heart shaped chocolate muffins! How cute…

I couldn’t contain myself. I had to try one right away….

I feel sad. I didn’t like it that much. I KNOW!!!! Can you believe I just said that about my beloved Vitas! Well, I think the issue with these hearts is that they are pretty thick, therefore a bit on the dry-dense side. I like “dense” if it’s moist, but not “dry dense”. Dry cake sucks However, Vitatops are not as thick, so that’s why I haven’t had the dry issue with those guys. They are the best! I think I’ll pawn these hearts off on the daughters. I’ll ice them up with a frosting of their choice and they’ll love them. No, they will HEART them. Sorry, it’s Friday and I’m tired

Dinner was homemade calzones for the husband and daughters. I didn’t have time to make whole wheat dough for myself, so I went for some leftover pizza that I had in the freezer. This pizza was made with spelt pizza dough which is awesome! I had this veggie pizza and 2 super sweet clementines for another quick meal of the day. Delicious for 9 POINTS…

I was tempted to have another Vitatop for dessert, but I felt pretty full. A little later, I had a spoonful of the daughters’ Cookies and Cream Ice Cream. No chocolates followed. That’s progress!

Have a great night =)
