Tuesday was another successful day for me. I ate very light throughout the day since I knew I was making Chicken Parmigiana that evening. It's one of the family favorites. I kept my portion to 4 oz and even with the cheese on it I ended up at 435 calories including a small slice of garlic bread. However, it was so good I really, really, wanted another serving. Instead I washed my plate and grabbed a glass of green tea with a fresh lemon wedge to help stave off the craving.
This morning I tried something different for breakfast. I've realized I really need to eat a decent breakfast and if I do it helps me through the rest of the day. So this morning I had some oatmeal, with a bit of pumpkin, topped with a dash of cinnamon and a dash of brown sugar. I also poached an egg for some protein. It was actually very yummy & satisfying.

Good for you! I had a good eat day yesterday too. It is really hard to have the second helping isn't it.
i've found that a good breakfast really helps me through the day, too. so i spend a lot of calories on breakfast...usually a 3 egg white omelette with 1 oz of cheese and 1 oz of ham. very yummy and satisfying.
That sounds yummy!!
good job! I also use a lot of calories on breakfast!
It's worth it, it makes me eat less if I am not getting hungry at 10 am.
I need to start eating breakfast, instead I starve myself until lunch and then probably eat more calories than I would if I had breakfast and lunch. That pumpkin oatmeal sounds good!
Thanks for the body measurment post too, I should try that (but I don't want to know what my waist is!)
