My dinner...Sorry no photo.

I loved my dinner so much, I ate it too fast to take a photo of it, I made a change up, instead of a salad on a plate, it was more like a salad in a sandwich. It was really yummy. I had my major protein, fat, and dairy in this sandwich, which I am sure why it was so good.

I toasted two pieces of whole wheat bread, used about a teaspoon of olive oil mayo, (which by the way, is really good, and so worth getting, it is great in salads, in dressings, all sorts of things, and less fat than normal mayo). I also added a bunch of mustard, and a few shakes of hot sauce. I heated up four thin slices of ham, added two (also thin) slices of mozzarella cheese, with some sliced hard boiled eggs.  I told you this had all my fat and protein for the day. I then topped it all off with salad greens, tomato slices and fresh squeezed lime juice.

It was heaven. I loved every bite. I know I am about to have a fantastic visit from my favorite family member any day now, my always reliable Aunt Flo, so I need the extra Iron. Go Protein!!

I am going to be honest, I did cave and ate some cake yesterday, I had it left over from my son's birthday on tuesday, which I did really well with considering it is me, and I love cake and ice cream, who really doesn't? Maybe someone completely lactose intolerant, which I am not, so get out of my way and let me get my dairy on. But really I had maybe a 1/4 cup of the stuff, which is way better than my cereal bowl full serving. But since I frosted the cake, and we all know that would take way too much will power to not lick a finger or two, I skipped frosting with my piece with the family. 

But yesterday, I was at my whits end, naughty babies, snarky teenagers, and too much housework, pushed me over the edge. So I decided to let go of that strangling will power and ate a nice big piece of yummy, lovely chocolate cake with lots of frosting and candy. And I have to say, damn, I make an awesome cake. All sorts of stress just melted away. But that isn't the type of eating I condone, but sometimes you got to let go, you can only have so much will power.

I always mess with the box cake, I leave out the oil, add yogurt, this time I used light red velvet cake flavor, and I used one less egg, but I knew I was going to be building it up, so I added just two tablespoons of oil, to help make it firmer. But to counter act the yogurt taste my hubs always notices, I added a touch of baking cocoa, and I think that really put it over the top, gave it a super chocolate taste, we all loved.

I am thinking that maybe I need to allow for one more additional cheat meal through out the week, at least to keep me from being all stabby when Aunt Flo shows up, for some reason that bitch makes me want to hurt people.

Day two lunch;

I hope this doesn't get boring, but hey not many read this, so I guess I don't have much to worry about. After yesterday, I wanted to post my lunch again today. Just so you can really get an idea of just what some of those big girls you make fun of actually eat. And I know most of you won't believe that I am trying, most will think I sneak fast food in the middle of the night, but nope.

I was even a bad mom today, I was out running around and I got a fast food kids meal for my two youngest, and even though the fries smelled so good, and the nuggets were nice and hot, I passed. I won't lie, I had a bit of the child size frosty, but that was the only real junk food snack I have had all week, and it is a weak, non real milk shake, and I had maybe a 1/4 cup of. I could have really gotten I baconator sandwich, with large fries and a cold dr pepper, but I passed. I instead waited until I got home and made myself a salad, sure I could have bought one there, but who knows how healthy that really is.

My salad has tomatoes, mixed greens, sliced almonds, some sunflower seeds, both nuts raw, by the way. I also topped it with a tablespoon (if that) of parmesan cheese, and yogurt, fat free dressing, with only two grams of sugar. So as I like to say lately, suck it bitches.

It also has fresh mushrooms, and if you look close the tomato was getting old, but it was still super yummy. I can tell I haven't eaten too much fat this week, because this dressing taste the best it has ever tasted. That happens once you eat better and better, your palette changes and you get used to the real taste of things. 

My lunch today.

I just loved it so much I thought I would share it with you. I was calling it ham fried rice, but it is more like a stir fry, so ham fried stir fry.

Notice the salad plate, not a full dinner plate. Also notice all the veggies. Yes there is also tomatoes and pineapple, but I realized that more people in my family have died from heart disease than from UTI's, so screw the bladder irritation.

I used a tiny bit of olive oil, and low  sodium soy sauce and a dash (well a bit more than a dash) of fish sauce. Plus a few other spices. I topped it off with some hot sauce once I was finished.

It is loaded with veggies, celery, zucchini, mushrooms, peppers, cabbage, carrots, and a bit of brown rice. It was really yummy, and full of goodness. So all of you who think that us fatty's just sit around eating McDonalds all day can see that isn't true of this one. So suck it bitches.
