A Word With Two Zs

We decided to have a little fun with our mid-morning snack today, and tried out some Trader Joe's Tzatziki (a Greek yogurt, cucumber, garlic dip) with celery sticks. Dee said it was a little more watery than some she'd tried at a friend's house, but good nonetheless!

Why am I posting this at 6:30 pm, when we ate our snack around 11:00 am? I dunno. We've been running around like crazy today. :)

We also crafted a tuna melt wrap, similar to the one several months ago on this blog, using canned tuna, cheddar cheese, mustard, grated Parmesan, and lettuce on these mongo-wraps we found at Trader Joe's with 12 grams of fiber per wrap. Woo!

Weigh-in tomorrow morning!

It's The Great Pumpkin!

We're off and rolling with our watch-your-sugar-type plan this morning! We both had our normal 1/2 cup of oatmeal, now bolstered with 1/4 cup unsweetened canned pumpkin, cinnamon, and a dash of Stevia. Next be the new-found Trader Joe's fat-free Greek yogurt with a sprinkling of Uncle Sam cereal and a dusting of Stevia. Then, our old friend Egg Mates (our local, generic egg substitute) with a tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese from the bright green can! Add some Folgers Chocolate Truffle coffee, and my morning is complete!

Dee accidentally over-Stevia-ed her yogurt to the point that she couldn't even palate it, so I adopted that as well, and still came out under my normal calories, and WAY under my typical carb & sugar level... wow... This might not hurt as badly as I'd thought...
