Monday and Tuesday

Monday is normally my day off, but they needed extra coverage, so I went in. I woke up early again, and made a smoothie for breakfast with milk, a strawberry Petite Cream, frozen strawberries and bananas, and some green apple slices.

I was feeling lazy and didn't pack a lunch. I went to Menchie's partway through the morning and got some pineapple sorbet with raspberries and strawberries, which cost $5.37. Then in the early afternoon I went to QFC and bought a frozen fried chicken and mashed potato entree for $2.99, a pint of chocolate milk for $1.39, and a bag of jalapeno kettle chips for $1.09.

The only bad thing about the beginning of the month is that I have a good amount of money to work with so it's way too easy to be lazy and I wind up eating much more poorly as well.

I wound up not being hungry for dinner at all, which may have had to do with my 1200 calorie late lunch. Winter had picked up some Ramen and a can of corn with her allowance on her way home from school and wasn't really hungry either. Jeremy ate something, though I am not sure what.

Breakfast: smoothie with milk, strawberry Petite Cream, frozen strawberries and bananas, and green apples
Lunch: frozen fried chicken with mashed potatoes, corn, and gravy, jalapeno kettle chips
Dinner: skipped
Snacks/desserts: candy corn, pineapple sorbet with berries
Beverages: water, chocolate milk

Tuesday went better. I worked at the airport. I ate breakfast at home, packed a lunch, and Jeremy made tacos for dinner. No food was purchased yesterday.

Breakfast: vanilla Petite Cream, whole wheat bagel with cream cheese
Lunch: peanut butter and honey sandwich, banana
Dinner: beef tacos with lettuce, cheese, salsa, and sour cream
Snacks/desserts: coffee ice cream with goat milk caramel
Beverages: water

Sunday eatings

Man, I am really falling behind on this. Tuesday is almost over. I will post Monday and Tuesday tomorrow because I need to dig out some receipts for it.

Sunday I actually made breakfast at home, probably because I woke up an hour earlier than usual (thanks daylight savings). It wasn't something I'd make again, probably, but it was ok.

For dinner we used up the whole wheat buns and the Lightlife veggie chicken patties we'd had in the freezer a while. I also used the little bunch of broccoli and one sad carrot I found languishing in the bottom of the crisper, and just cut them up and steamed them. I was unusually snack-y Sunday night. Likely because dinner was a little lighter on calories than usual.

Breakfast: oatmeal mixed with a vanilla Petite Cream with goat milk caramel and a handful of chocolate chips
Lunch: leftover tofu banh mi, green apple slices
Dinner: veggie chicken sandwich with spicy ranch and lettuce on a whole wheat bun, steamed broccoli and carrots
Snacks/desserts: lemon Greek yogurt, candy corn, Halloween chocolate chips
Beverages: water, Crystal Light
