Some days you are just hungry ALL day…..

Or at least that is how I am today – I seem to be hungry almost immediately AFTER I eat *sigh* On a brighter note though, today flew by which is a good thing since I am counting down the days to Vegas!  My breakfast surprisingly didn’t hold me over too well. I was hungry within an hour but I held out until snack time.  I decided to break out the Whole Wheat Naan bread that I picked up.

And two of my favorite new Peanut Butters from Peanut Butter & Co.

1/3 of my Whole Wheat Naan (2 Weight Watcher Points) toasted and split in 1/2.  The first 1/2 was topped with ~ 1/2 Tbsp Cinnamon Raisin Swirl.

I topped the other 1/2 Tbsp with Dark Chocolate Dreams!

This fantastic snack did an excellent job at fueling my workout.  I decided to do the Elliptical today for 40 minutes with the June Edition of Vegetarian Times.  I used my music to pace my workout and went as fast as I could during the chorus.  It was a great work and I was surprised to see that the machine and my Body Bugg were within 12 calories burned of each other ~ 347 Calories burned per my BB.  The machine said 359.

I came back to a quick lunch that I put together last night.  Leftover salad with AVOCADO, Bennisimo Blueberry Balsamic Vinegar and a splash of Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

Plus a 3 Weight Watcher Point Trader Joe’s Chile Lime Chicken Burger ~ I LOVE These!

Don’t worry, I didn’t eat it NAKED!  I topped it with some Annie’s Organic Ketchup and Dijon Mustard.

For “dessert”, I had 5 chocolate covered gummy bears that my co-worker picked up for me.  She was shocked I had never tried them so she bought some over the weekend.  OMG ~ I LOVED these – highly addicting though.  This is why I took 5 and gave her to bag back!

And for no other reason than it was sitting on my desk, I had a tiny spoonful of the Dark Chocolate Dreams PB.  I LOVE how it is swirled together so you can still SEE the PB.

I do not know what it is about today, but, I am HUNGRY ALL DAY!  I was still hungry after my lunch but I decided to drink a whole 32 oz container of fizzy water.  I forgot about my hunger, but, when, snack time I hit I decided to add more protein and fat to my snack than originally planned to see if it would have some staying power.

It did the trick ~ Not bad for 160 calories & 3 Weight Watcher points! 

Coming up next, my fun mail, going on a mowing roll AND I brought back a FAVORITE Vegetarian Recipe!

  7. Hi Anonymous ~ This post only represents my AM snack and lunch. You can refer to my posts before and after this for my breakfast, plus PM snack, dinner and dessert. I eat 4-6 meals/snacks a day and have no problem at all fitting in my points. The title of my post was referring to the days where you feel really snacky and want to eat everything in site.
