Thomas Bagel Thins

I LOVE a good bagel in the morning for breakfast. I came across these last night in the grocery store. I found them in the deli section. The whole bagel is only 110 calories! I got the whole wheat brand.

I made a bagel this morning for breakfast with banana and peanut butter. I love peanut butter in the morning. It seems to fill you up all day.

Here are the nutrition facts for the bagels from the Thomas website:

Red Lobster A++++++++++++

(Please excuse the sad looking picture, I had to take it with my camera phone) We made it to Red Lobster tonight and I have to say it was amazing!! We ended up having to wait 45 minutes but it was so worth it. I started with a side salad and the fat free raspberry dressing. I had one BITE of a cheese biscuit. Then I ordered the create your own feast: grilled shrimp, crab legs, salmon, and broccoli. I was a little concerned at first because the shrimp and salmon said it came with a buttery sauce on top. I asked the waiter and was able to get my food grilled with no butter! Score!!! It was an awesome dinner. Seriously the best crab legs I've ever had. According to the RL website my whole entire dinner was 530 delicious calories =)

It cut me off!!

In keeping with my SWEAT goal this week, I came home from work, popped in a DVD and got on the treadmill. I didn't have a specific time in mind, I just wanted to go for as long as possible. Before I knew it, I had set a goal to walk the whole way through the movie!! I got to the very end, walked 99:99 minutes. At this point I was curious what would happen when I got to 100 minutes since there are only 4 spaces for times on my treadmill. Well when I got to 100 minutes, the treadmill shut off!! It beeped at me a few times and turned itself off! Oh well, I almost made it through the whole movie. And of course I was sweating like a pig so goal reached!!! Now it's time to shower and head out with the DH on a date. I got my Red Lobster menu picked out! Shrimp and crab legs here I come...

Friday Lunch

Friday's lunches are usually a hodge podge of whatever I have left in the kitchen. Today was no exception. I had a chicken sandwich, cheese stick, mild cheddar lil'crunchies (best flavor!!!), sugar free jello and a sugar free hershey's dark chocolate.

Now I'm off to research some local restaurants websites. Going out to eat tonight and need to figure out where to eat the healthiest...

BBQ Crockpot Chicken

I love BBQ chicken!! And cooking it in the crock pot is one of the easiest ways. This morning I put three chicken breasts in the crock pot and covered them with low sodium chicken broth to cook on low all day. Then I drained all the broth out and used a fork to shred the chicken. It shreds so easily when cooked all day in broth. Then I added some BBQ sauce and put the lid on to finish cooking.

While the chicken was heating back up, I sliced some brussel sprouts and a small sweet potato. I sprayed them with calorie free vegetable spray and added a little kosher salt. I baked them in the oven for 15 minutes, turned them over and baked them for another 10 minutes. I like my sprouts on the blackened side =) Turned out to be a great dinner!!

BBQ Chicken Pizza!!!

I had planned on having Tilapia for dinner tonight but couldn't get pizza out of my head so I decided to make me a nice BBQ Chicken pizza. I started with a Joseph Lavash bread that I crisped in the oven for 5 minutes. I boiled a chicken breast until it was done enough to shred. I shredded it and added bbq sauce. I topped the lavash with the bbq chicken and sprinkled a little cheese on top. Popped it into the oven just enough to melt the cheese. It was so tasty!!! Best part is, the ENTIRE pizza had 420 calories. According to Papa John's website, one SLICE of their bbq chicken pizza has 440 calories! Holy cow! =D
