29 points

That is how many I used today- 2 over my daily value. So that means I used up 2 of my 35 extra weekly points. I am still kind of hungry, and was really ravenous around 3:00, which is why I had that extra snack that pushed me over the edge. I could have probably done even better though if the yogurt we had in the house was plain fat free, rather than low fat sweetened with sugar. The yogurt was actually the most points I used all day on one item other than the meat sauce for my spaghetti.

Whole grain pastas and bread, more fruits like strawberries and blueberries, and some plain yogurt and I should be well on my way to having some substantial meals while still staying within points!

here is what I ate today:
1 serving of Honey Bunches of Oats cereal
1/2 c 1% milk
1 banana
3/4 of an apple (emily had the rest :p),
1/2 of 10" flour tortilla with 3 Tbs cheese (not low fat) 1/4 cup of black beans and salsa
1 cup of orange yogurt
a 2 pack of chocolate gram crackers
1 cup of spaghetti
a serving of meat sauce.

hmmm- I think maybe I should have eaten some vegetables!
