Give me two slices of bread…

…and I’ll make a meal out of it.   Or at least that should have been my eating motto yesterday!   :cool:

I had a breakfast sandwich (that’s 2 slices of bread) – and then kept that theme going through lunch and dinner.

For lunch – I packed a veggie salad.  We were out of lettuce, so my salad just consist of huge chunks of all the veggies I have left.picture-030

The veggies were great and filling, but I was still craving something substantial so I made a quick chicken sandwichpicture-031

For a snack – one of my favorites!   Key Lime Pie Larabar, with some dried cherries!picture-032

Dinner was more of the same!  I didn’t make my weekly grocery store trip because we have only $25 dollars  left for the challenge, and that needs to include everything I buy to take to my mom’s.   So a quick, easy boca burger with a sweet potato it was!picture-0261

I went and ordered new glasses last night – after almost 10 years!   I’ve been wearing the same pair since HIGH SCHOOL!   But, it’s not like I actually wear them out – I wear contacts all day, and then wear my glasses from the bathroom to the bedroom, and that’s it.  I’ve been dying to get a new pair, and finally took the plunge last night!   Once they come in, I’ll model them for you!  :razz:

Breakfast this morning, I needed to use up more of our pantry items, so I continued with the apple pie oatmeal, topped off with some granola:picture-0271

And that does it!  This week is short to begin with, but it’s FLYING BY!   Sorry if I haven’t been leaving you all as many comments lately – I promise I’m still reading!

Hahah I’m the SAME way with glasses…contacts all day, but really I need new glasses BADLY…I think mine may be from HS too!! I’ve actually been thinking about that lately because I set some $$ for that in my flex spending account through work.

You’re doing so awesome on the challenge! That is great! I really enjoy the key lime lara- I def will purchase it again!! I’m just like you with the glasses! I only wear them at night before bed. Otherwise its contacts!

Your colorful salads get me every time! As a carb-o-holic I love all the sandwiches :D

Can’t wait to see the new specs!

What a colorful salad! Who needs lettuce when you have all that veggie goodness! Girl, I’m always in the mood for sweet potato.
I bet you look ultra cute in your new glasses!

I”m so impressed with your Challenge results!!! I hope you do a recap post of the whole month, I’d love to see the numbers all in one place… Pretty salad!

I have that Larabar in my cupboard…looks like I need to try it out!

[Reply]

I just ate that exact larabar!

[Reply]

yeah, pretty sure I could do with a new pair of glasses too…just haven’t made that appointment.

I actually want a pair of glasses instead of resorting to contacts all the time. The glasses I have that I used prior to going to bed are not the right prescription, so eek. But I do the same as you – bathroom to bedroom are glasses. But I want a pair that I can go out and be able to see! Hhaha!

And can’t wait for the model pictures – be sure to do the before and after! ;) Hahaha, and great eats for the day. I want a larabar! Haha!

So many fabulous eats! Now that’s what I call a salad … who said it needs lettuce?! Yum!!

I do the same thing with my glasses, but I still really need a new pair as well!! Can’t wait to see your new specs!

I hope you have a fabulous Thanksgiving, girl!! :)
