Food Log so far today

I've been doing pretty well today.  For lunch, I had a turkey sandwich on whole wheat with lettuce, tomato, lite mayo, apples, and cheese along with a bag of baked Lays.  That should be around 700 (max) for both.  For breakfast, I had that half of a bagel, so that should be about 300 calories (max).  That puts me at about 1000 calories so far today, which is great!

I like to eat a larger lunch with a small dinner, so I hope to eat a salad for dinner today.  Has anyone had the southwest chicken salad from chick fil a?  It is awesome!  Spicy, flavorful, and very filling.  It only has 240 calories for the whole thing, and that includes the cheese and everything.  It is only 70 extra for the tortilla strips.  Another trick I do is to keep the dressing on the side and dip the salad in it rather than pour it all over.  You use only about 1/2 the dressing and you get more flavor in every bite.  Anyway, that's what I was thinking about for dinner tonight.  Hopefully, I will be able to squeeze some exercise in!

I'm thinking I won't lose another pound tomorrow, so I will be happy to maintain at 158.  I was shooting for 157 by Sunday, and I think that is a good goal!  I can't wait to be in the 140's again.   That's what I'm going to think about when I am selecting my dinner for tonight :)  Good luck!
