Skinny Plate Challenge

Day 13 of 

The Skinny Plate Challenge.

Avocado with salsa, Havarti cheese,

carrots, Sweet Potato crackers,

cucumbers 

and Smoked Mussels.

Where's The Greens?

Where's the greens???

...not here,

the only thing lurking in the veggie bin

 is a lone garlic bulb. 

...which left me going for orange

 for my "Skinny Plate" supper tonight.

Seasoned baked chicken, 

sweet potatoes 

and carrots with chives.

Wish I could say the buttered  popcorn I snacked on this afternoon 

was a "Skinny Bowl" size

... but that's all under the belt now.

Shinny Plate Challenge - Wednesday

After a day like today,
wine would have gone down nicely
with my "Skinny Plate" supper
...but I settled for 
"water in a wine glass."

1/2 a pita bread topped with salsa, 

sauteed mushrooms and peppers,

 tomato and Havarti cheese with a side of 

1/2 cup brown/wild rice.

Going For The Greens

Well, here I am again, after a three month hiatus from blogging, and a long period of ups and downs as far as my diet and exercise routine goes...definitely more ups when it comes to portion size, pant size and the numbers on my scale. In yet another attempt to get back on track I've signed on for the one month Skinny Plate Challenge to get my food intake back under control and at the same time add more greens to my diet. If you would like to join the Skinny Plate Challenge you can check it out here.

My first "skinny plate" meal,

1/2 salmon steak, quinoa,and some greens

...a spinach salad,

...adding a couple of handfuls of spinach to

 green up my breakfast smoothie,

...and waiting patiently for

 my garden to grow!

...two weeks in

...it won't be long.
