Snack: Black Pepper Popcorn - 3 points
Lunch: Sammy, Yogurt, Dried Fruit - 6 points
Snack - Bubble Tea - 4 points

What I have eaten today and plan for Sunday
Today:
Brekkie - Starbucks - 4 points
Snack - Yogurt and Strawberries - 3 points
Lunch - Sammy, Tangerine, Prunes - 5 points
Snack - Pork Steamed Bun - 5 points
Dinner - Spaghetti and Vegetarian Meatballs - 5 points
I know I have points left but I am hot and tired and had to force myself to eat the spaghetti which luckily I had frozen last time I made it. No appetite and I am force feeding myself water as well to keep from heat exhaustion.
Sunday
Brekkie - Starbucks - 2 (apparently a grande light coffee frap with one pump of chai syrup is 150/.5/3)
Snacks in my purse - Dried fruit (2 bags) - 2 points, kashi cereal with almonds - 2 points
I don't know what lunch or dinner will look like but I am leaving 20 points between them.

Dinner, Dessert and Saturday
Ummmmm yeah about last night. Stupid dessert bar... and communal ordering for dinnner!
Dinner: PF Changs... using NI, I am figuring 1/3 of every plate except the lettuce wrap (which was less than that)
1 chicken lettuce wrap (3), Cucumbers in soy and oil salad (1), Brown Rice (4), Beef Noodles (13), Honey Chicken (8), Sparkling Wine (2)
Dessert (because yes, it does it better... nope no it doesn't): 1 petite four (4), 1 bite of banana and one bite of strawberry (0), 1 lady finger (1), small handful of M&Ms (2).
Sooooo I had 5 points going into all of that (and 29 flexies)... and my points used was 38.... so I am NEGATIVE 4 FLEX for the week. And I still have a couple tough days ahead. However... I think I did a good job of navigating the food that was communally ordered and split. I also listened to my stomach regarding hunger. And this time frame was 6 hours. The food I ordered was the lettuce wrap, cucumber and brown rice.... and I would have just stuck to those if I diidn't have to share the. I also didn't overeat.... the other food was just VERY high in points :-(
I have a tournament today but I am bringing my lunch:
Brekkie: Starbucks (4)
Snack: Strawberries (1) and Yogurt (2)
Lunch: Tangerines (2), Sandwich (3), Prunes (1)
Pending how hot it is.... I will then do one of the following:
Order sushi in. Buy some popsicles. Maybe a fruit tea smoothie..
Or if it is cooler and I can actually cook...
Baked spiced cauliflower (0), bean and cheese burrito (4), beet chips (1)
Yeah it all depends LOL.

What did I really eat on Thursday?
Um yeah... I totally tracked AND used flex but hey I tracked! My tummy was weird all day so I just tried to listen to it and stay within my points. I am currently making cupcakes for a bake sale so I enjoyed some icce cream in order to prevent a cupcake binge. I thought that was a good trade off.
Brekkie: Starbucks Frap (4)
Snack: Sammy (3)
Lunch: Popcorn (3) and Strawberries (1)
Snack: Bubble Tea (4)
Dinner: Chipotle (10)
Snack: Ice Cream (6)

Plan for Thursday
I am walking to work today!
Brekkie: Starbucks Frap on my way to work! (4 points)
Snack: Butter and Black Pepper Popcorn (3 points)
Lunch: Ham Sammy, Asparagus and Fava Bean Salad, Strawberries (6 points)
Snack: Yogurt and Steel Cut Oats Mix (4 points)
Dinner: I am going to the league coaches meeting. There will probably be sandwiches from Togos. IF the sandwiches don't have mayo, I will have one of those. I am also bringing a travel pack of ff tuna salad and crackers which I can eat if there are no good choices. I will also have a cookie because there are always cookies and I will binge if I don't plan. So either sammy and cookie for 10 pts or...
Tuna and Crackers (3 pt) and Cookie (2 pt)
and then come home and have veggie stir fried rice for another 5 points.
And I realize I may be short on veggie servings (2 in lunch salad, 2 in strawberries, 1 in oatmeal, 1 in either sammy or stirfry) so I will also slice some kolrahbi and snack on that at some point.
