South Beach Phase 1 Day 5

It's Sunday--church day.  Pretty mellow, and I didn't work out because, you know, it's Sunday.  Day of rest and all that.


Breakfast:  SBD Egg Souffle, but I added 2 links of chicken sausage that I removed from the skin and chopped up.  Yum.  D's was a little bigger than mine, but I got over it pretty quickly.

Snack:  Skipped--we were at church

Lunch:  Spinach salad with tomatoes, a little green pepper, some salsa and 1 tbsp of Kroger Olive Oil and Vinegar dressing.  I topped it with 1/2 a hard boiled egg for my protein.

Snack: Glass of sugar-free Citrucel and I licked the knife from T's peanut butter sandwich, so about 1 tsp peanut butter

Dinner:  Tortilla-less South Beach Mexican Lasagna.  Even though I replaced the tortillas with romaine lettuce, it came out kind of soupy.  I'm wondering if I should have drained the cheeses first or made my own salsa--we ate it like soup.  It would have been much better with the tortillas.

Dessert:  Protein Milk Shake.  This is--1 scoop Pure Protein in frosty chocolate, just under 1 c plain Greek yogurt, frozen, 3 tbsp peanut butter, 1/2 c almond milk, 2 tsp sugar substitute, and some ice and water.  I added 1/4 tsp hazelnut extract, just for fun, and boy....that stuff was tasty.  Of course, this was split between D and I and easily serves 2 people.
 I guess I could have used cocoa powder instead, but I of course didn't think about that at the time.


I feel satisfied but not overly full.  Tomorrow morning there is a Zumba class that I think I'm going to attend, just to shake my workout up a bit.
