    Okay, if I'm confessing...2 glasses. Preferably red wine since it's healthy.

    Here's a general healthy eating guide:



    It's anyone's guess as to how all the highly processed 'foods' we Americans tend to eat would fit into these categories.

    I had one of my left over mushroom and black bean whole wheat burritos for lunch, with an apple. snack was string cheese.
    When I got home, I ate one slice of whole wheat bread with a little soy nut butter. Then I went for a 2-3 mile hike in the conservation land, including an uphill portion that is about a 25% grade at 2 points.
    Dinner was one chicken breast, rubbed with curry powder, with an apricot jam/lemon juice sauce, sauteed in olive oil. I ate about a cup of whole wheat couscous, and a salad with romaine, grape tomatoes, and a tsp of vinagrette dressing. I did have a glass of red wine and my dessert was as always, 2 squares of dark chocolate.

    Today:

    "pre-breakfast" (oh-dark-30 before a breakfast meeting) - 2 slices light whole wheat toast with homemade apple butter
    breakfast - steel cut oats with 1/2 banana and 1 T brown sugar
    snack - yogurt, coffee with chocolate soy milk
    lunch - Flatout light Italian wrap with 3 oz turkey, lettuce, mushrooms
    snack - grapefruit
    dinner (as soon as I get home from work will be...)- 4 oz fish simmered with tomatoes, mushrooms & onions. Wild rice. Steamed broccoli & cauliflower. Big green salad with homemade balsamic vinaigrette. Depending upon my mood, I may skip the rice in favor of red wine. I only have 6.5 WW points left to spend on dinner, so I can't have both.

    Monday nights in college I had band rehearsal at 6 pm (yes, I was in the marching band.) Dinner was usually a hot pretzel and a can of coke while standing in the hallway outside rehearsal room.

    Ah, the good old days...

    Today for lunch I went with the mushroom stroganoff from Noodles & Co. Also this morning I found a small bag of unsalted cashews that I had bought a couple of weeks ago during a long drive, so I had some of them for my pre-gym snack. Now for dinner I will have half a large baked potato topped with 2% milk cheddar cheese plus a glass of OJ.

    Tomorrow for lunch I think I might go to Quiznos for an 8" tuna melt on wheat. With lots of pickles.
