Trials & Tribulations of becoming a smaller Potato

Still below points – is this a trend for me?

Okey, it’s not the spectacular 2 points that I saved yesterday but nevertheless I am below points – I am one point below the regular 31 I am to eat…. yes, that’s right, I ate 30 points worth of food today. And darn it, grapes are filling.

Breakfast: 1c Corn Bran Squares, 1c 2% milk, 1 medium banana – 7 points

Lunch: 1 chicken thigh with skin, 2c broccoli, mushrooms, 1/4c roasted potato, onions – 6 points

Dinner: 85g whole wheat pasta, 1/4c tomato sauce, 3oz lean beef, mushrooms, oil (for cooking), 1oz old cheddar – 15 points

Afternoon snack – 2c grapes – 2 points

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I would highly recommend the Corn Bran Squares – they are almost like a healthy version of Captain Crunch cereal. They are for 1c 120 calories, 5g of fibre and 1.5g of fat… which makes them 2 points just for the cereal. That coupled with my banana kept me very full for most of the morning.
