Monday WW Accountability

vballgirl78

Morning all!  That was a HORRIBLE eating weekend for me!  Thank goodness we waited until yesterday to open up the Halloween candy.  Unfortunately, we didn't get nearly as many trick-or-treaters as we expected and we have TONS leftover.  I guess I'll have to take a bunch to work to try and unload it.  Yikes.  Hope you all had much better will-power than I did.   Back on track today.

B: ww yogurt (1); fiber one bar (2)

L: probably subway, since I have an all-day in-service at work and will have to catch lunch between speakers (10)

????????????

S: honeycrisp apple (1)

Total: 14

Target: 25

Really need to get to the grocery store- not much left in the house to chose from (unless you count all that Halloween candy)

yeah....we were setup for a MILLION trick-or-treaters in our new house...but we had 9. yup...9. so...trying to figure out who to give away all this candy to. at least its all tootsie rolls and such which are relatively healthy and i wont eat the entire bag. :P

B: banana (2), coffee (2)
L: baked chicken (5), salad w/ dressing (2)
S: nut bar (3)
baked chicken (5), asparagus (0), potatos (3)

Total: 22
Target: 26

Morning!  We got a bunch of trick or treaters but I still have a ton of candy leftover.  I'll be honest, I hid it in the cabinet over the fridge so I can't get to it without standing on a chair and will wait for DH to get home in a week and make him take it to work or something.  I had some candy yesterday, but luckily I got mostly minis (not even fun size) so that a piece here and there wasn't as deadly.

B: high fiber oatmeal (3)
L: Homemade baked potato soup-yummy!  (6)
salad (3) and a steak sandwich (8)

Total: 20
Target: 21

E: Maybe a Jillian video tonight.

Kim - did you get any caramel apple pops? If so, you could mail them to me. We're out EVERYwhere here... I made it through Halloween without eating a single piece of candy because all I wanted was a caramel apple pop.

I lost 3.2 lbs at my WI this week! Brings my total to 62.2 lbs lost! Woo hoo! I'm officially out of the 190s! I'm so glad I weighed in Saturday morning, because the rest of the weekend was horrible eating! Back to it then...

B: kashi autumn harvest (2), almond milk (.5), nonfat peppermint mocha (3)
S: applesauce w/cinnamon & cloves (1), popcorn (1)
L: leftovers of some kind (?)
S: tbd
chicken (3), whole wheat pasta (3), some kind of sauce (2?)

E: probably none today... too much homework

Total: 15.5
Target: 25

Hey guys! I just joined today and I started back on WW last Monday...I have a little over a year until my wedding and have a LOT to lose. WW was the only thing that ever worked for me. I see you guys put your daily meals on here...what a great idea! I would love to be counted in on the accountability every week if that's ok?

Graceful-I used this one http://find.myrecipes.com/recipes/recipefinder.dyn?action=displayRecipe&recipe_id=10000000357537

But I also have this recipe that a friend really likes.

Loaded Baked Potato Soup
Ingredients
5 Lg. Potatoes (Baking, Idaho, Russet, etc.), peeled and cubed
2 cups Chicken Stock
1 cup Water
6 Strips Bacon, chopped
1 Sm. Onion, diced
3 Stalks Celery, diced
3 Tbsp. Butter
3 Tbsp. Flour
1 cup Milk
1/2 cup Heavy Cream
1 cup Cheddar Cheese, shredded
3 Green Onions, diced
Directions
In a large pot, add the potatoes, chicken stock and water; bring to a boil and simmer
for 20 minutes.
In a large pan, cook the bacon over med-high heat until crisp. With a slotted spoon,
remove bacon pieces and let cool on a paper towel covered plate. Meanwhile, add the onion and celery to the pan and cook in the reserved bacon grease until tender.
Once the potatoes have cooked, place a few spoonfuls of potatoes into a separate bowl and begin mashing with a potato masher; set aside.
Meanwhile, combine the milk and heavy cream; set aside. In a small saucepan, melt the
butter over medium heat. Add in the flour and whisk constantly for 2 minutes.
Gradually whisk in the milk/cream mixture and let come to a boil over medium heat until thickened.
Add in the mashed potatoes to the remaining cooked potatoes and carefully stir in the butter/milk mixture. Add in the cheese, bacon, green onions and celery/onion mixture; stir to combine. Let simmer until heated through. Season to taste with pepper. **If it becomes too thick, you can think it out a bit with chicken stock**
Serve warm and top with shredded cheese, bacon, green onion and/or sour cream.
Yield: 4-6 Servings
