Days 17 & 18

It's been a busy weekend, so I'm keeping this short and sweet!  Backtrack to Thursday when I was really really wanting some BWW...Well, Alan comes in thinking the exact same thing!  So.... we did NOT go to BWW. We stayed in, I washed and chopped up the salad and we ate big salads and turkey wraps on the Ezekiel bread.  The Ezekiel bread wraps are actually really good! I was pleasantly surprised.  

Friday at school, I had a spinach salad from Corner Bakery with oranges, strawberries, grapes, dried cranberries, pomegranate dressing, feta cheese and some kind of pecan & raisin crouton things.  I didn't eat much of the cheese or croutons b/c that's not my favorite thing, so it was a nice healthy salad. 

So, we are back on track, eating our salads and keeping most if not all of our choices nutritious.  However, today I've made a shrimp gumbo and a cream cheese-filled king cake for a little Mardi Gras get-together tonight.  So, not exactly Fuhrman approved, but it's a special occasion and, let's face it, I'm just not giving up special occasions!  I will eat a big salad for lunch though which will have the following leafy greens:

bok choy

spinach

red leaf lettuce

romaine

Heeeaaalllth-y!  I hope everyone has a great weekend and that all of us can control our cravings and make healthy food choices!  I know it's hard!
