LULUC - that recipe looks amazing! You know I love me some wonton ravioli! Thats one of the amazing things about this band I could have 1-2 of those and not care (although I'd make sure my other meals that day were healthier) I was also thinking about trying it with low fat ricotta and instead of all the butter - use a little bit to make a roux, add evaporated skim milk and melt the romano or other cheese and oregano in it - getting all the flavor but not all the fat - we'll just have to see.

Today: - based on my diet today don't think I'm too tight now!

B: malted mocha Protein Shake

L: 1/2 beef & cheese enchilada w/ cheese sauce

S: 0.5 oz beef Jerky, 1 oz cheese and a couple chips

D: 1/4 c. chicken salad w/ dried cranberries, 2 tortilla rollup slices

S: 3 double stuff oreos :wink:

Sand diego mom - I am so with you on the oreo situation. FOrtunately, the majority of my package is going into a recipe for a party :yikes:

[luluc 6]

Are you trying to torture me? There is nothing low cal about that recipe- although my hubby really liked the sound of it.

oh i'm sorry - didn't mean to torture, kc and i have just played around w/the wonton wrappers (much less calories than regular pasta) making different kinds of ravioli.

i'm planning on making the sauce like the turkey/cranberry recp called for - going to try and make it a bit more calorie friendly...though i'll only be able to get maybe 3 down.

yesterday - pretty much all liquids; smoothies/protein drinks. had a hernia repair and couldn't eat in the am, then in the evening didn't feel so hot. today there are a bunch of Snacks i'm picking on:rolleyes:

Today was not a band day - I did not eat a single meal all day - instead I just grazed here and there (I was prepping for a party I am co-hosting and doing all the cooking for for 50 people sat night.)

Good news: I really didn't eat very much total (don't think) and at least I didn't graze on top of eating meals.

Bad news: I'm not exactly sure how much I ate and the food I did eat is not on any diet I know

Worse news: The party is tomorrow and I will still be cooking all day and then have the party food and alcohol during the night

i use muscle milk for chocolate Protein powder - its the only "chocolate" one i like.

Jay Robb brand had a really good Protein Powder that I bought on a website. The whey Protein tasted the best (I'd also tried egg white and soy). In case you're still looking for a good chocolate one. I've also added it to yogurts and stuff, gives them good flavor. (bought vanilla too, and I'm not much of a vanilla person, but it's not bad in stuff like yogurt.)

Worse news: The party is tomorrow and I will still be cooking all day and then have the party food and alcohol during the night

ya know - it's very hard for me to cook, and not taste everything (have some culinary school background) - i too am cooking away today and made & tested the prosciutto ravioli. i think it's going to be a hit; very yummy - and i am doing the cream sauce. good news; i'll be able to eat 2, bad news - i'll be drinking wine:)

frogstar - thanks for the recommendation!

very bad band day...actually am a bit worried. was filled on monday and only ate broth. Tuesday had some mexican meatball Soup, wednesday had some ravioli w/pesto, thursday chicken Soup and friday was some chicken avocado roll appetizer thing that is fried....it got stuck and came back up. today i have been struggling all day...this is what i have had and outcome

b - pure Protein shake - took me a while to finish

s - some WW crackers - just about 4

l - Protein burger w/cheese from in-n-out...only ate 1/3 and got stuck and i slimed for what seemed like hours and finally came up. have been uncomfortable for most of day since then.

s - tried a pure Protein Shake - wasn't cooperating

d - nothing -

s - tried a pudding and stayed down.

I started to drinking Water in the pm and it went down fine. Am I too tight? Do you think my band slipped?? I am worried. Thanks in advance....oh - sorry this is a LONG ramble.

been stuck on a plateau for the last 2 weeks, so haven't been eating my best. But today I've had;

Breakfast 1 1/2 oz pumpkin seeds (addicitive)

Lunch 1 bowl (6oz) homeade vegt. soup

snack 3 pepperidge farm milano cookies

dinner probably left over chili with some cheese and fritos

It's not that I eat too much it's the choices I've been making that keep me at my weight. But rejoice I get a fill tomorrow.
