Have my cake and eat it!
By Olgy Gary, June 16, 2003

I'm eating my heart out on WW and feeling quite full. Have not felt hungry yet in the past 3 weeks. What I've done is change the ingredients I use to cook my meals with and this IS helping me sooooooo much!!!

Today I got up late because I worked until 2am last night. I got up and was almost late for a doctor's apointment so ran out of the house without breakfast. When I got back I was famished!!! And so I had a huge breakfast: 4-eggs scrambled w/cheese, 2 waffles w/butter and maple syrup topped w/vanilla yogurt topped with a cup of strawberries and blueberries sprinkled with sugar.

Total points of my breakfast??? 7 points!

How???

Here's my journal:
1 wedge Laughing Cow Cheese Light Creamy Swiss Original Flavor (1 pt)
1 serving egg beaters (= 4 eggs, = 1 point)
Scramble egg beaters on pan sprayed w/Spam, add cheese. YYYUUUUMMMMMYYYYYY!!!!!!

1 serving fat free eggo waffles -2waffles (2 pts)
1/4 cup Spring Tree Sugar-Free Syrup (1 pt)
1/2 cup fat-free vanilla yogurt (1.5 pts)
1/2 cups strawberries (0 pts)
1/2 cup blueberries (0.5 pgs)
Take a cereal bowl, toast waffles and butter them with "I can't believe it's not butter fat-free margarine, top w/yogurt, top w/berries, sprinkle 2 little envelopes of Splenda. SSSUUUPPPEEERRR YYYUUUMMMMYYYY!!!!!!!

Subtotal 7

Not everything I'm trying tastes this yummy BUT a whole lot does. So eating what my family eats but using my own ingredients alone is making a great difference for me.
