Fat Guy on a Diet

Thankfully I was able to get to the grocery last night.  I finally have some decent options for breakfast once again.  This morning, I went for the Yoplait Light Yogurt and a Fiber One Bar.   By the time I’d taken the photo, I’d been sipping my coffee for a while, so the cup looks a bit empty.   The yogurt has been one of the best items I’ve added back into the regiment.  It takes a little while to eat, and it tastes great.  The Fiber One bars have been nice and filling as well, though sometimes I feel they taste a little TOO sweet.  Not complaining at all, but I might look to some other breakfast bars and see my other options.  Overall though, it’s a perfect start to the day.

A friend of mine was able to get out for lunch today, so I decided to meet him up at Fletcher’s Kitchen rather than having the stuff I brought in.  Today, being Tuesday, meant that the Gail’s Chicken Sandwich was on special.  I decided to go for that, minus the bacon, with the grilled zucchini on the side.  Once again, I was pretty happy with the sandwich overall, though the lack of bacon really takes away from the flavor.   Still, it was a pretty healthy lunch overall, and it still leaves me with options for dinner tonight.

At the grocery yesterday, I picked up some Gortons Roasted Garlic and Butter Tilapia. I used to enjoy the Gorton’s frozen fish products, so I was looking forward to having them again. I also decided to have another variety of Valley Fresh Steamers that I’d never seen before, Roasted Red Potatoes, Green Beans and Rosemary Butter Sauce. The fish was pretty awesome, but once again the Valley Fresh Steamers were not the best. So far, the only varieties of their product that I’ve enjoyed have been the “cheesy” type. About 10 minutes after dinner, I was still hungry, so I decided to add some additional carbs and had a few slices of bread with spray butter.
