This is going to take a bit more planning, even for a planner.

Yesterday was day one. I guess I ate okay, if the measurement of "okay" is "did not go over my points". It's kind of weird to me that, essentially, I could eat iceberg lettuce and about 50 Tostios with a Hint of Lime (tm) and nothing else in the day and I'd still be considered "okay" by that measure. (Note to self... seriously, stop byying Tostitos a Hint of Lime (tm) ).

I get 20 points a day and 35 extra for the week. I don't hitnk i get Rollover Points (isn't this like a cell phone plan?), since I went under by 3 yesterday, and it doesn't seem to impact my overall total. On this blog, I will list what I ate and my total points, and I'll list any exercise (more than just the average walking around in my normal life).

I won't itemize points on the blog, (because you seriously don't care) but I'll give a daily total.

Breakfast: Medium Coffee with skim milk (not givin' up the Dunks)
Lunch: 2 hard boiled egg whites, 1 cup steamed zucchini, 1 fat free yogurt
Dinner: hamburger patty, 1/2 cup potato salad, 1/2 cup tortellini with a little olive oil
Dessert: 1 cup cut watermelon

Total points: 17

In terms of lunch today, I was a little stumped. There weren't any great looking side vegetables downstairs at Sebastians (they had the steamed squash yesterday). I hate that Sebastians doesn't put nutrition information on their menu or website. Other than some basics, I'm not sure eating at the most convenient place for lunch is going to be part of my new plan.

I ended up getting a salad with some grilled salmon. Truth be told, I probably don't eat enough fish as it is, and this diet might be a good opportunity for some more critical thinking in food choices, not just around points. Sadly, the salad is way too big, and too expensive when you only finish half of it, that, in the end, it probably ends up being up the last of these salads I try.

Clearly, this whole thing is going to need more planning. I don't think I'm going to be able to do much more than I did today without grocery shopping. That will be my next entry, since I am going tonight...
