Week 15, day 98

It's my first Lite'n'Easy day of 2011 and I decided to go with the 1,500 calorie option so I'd have a little room to maneuver. I also haven't quite managed to clear out my freezer, and the 1,800 calorie menu adds two more items per day needing freezing. Which, given the abundance of chocolate at work, was probably a good thing, though I only had three squares.
I had a chicken and tomato salad with pesto mayonnaise to start, peach Melba, and snacked on a slightly dry citrus sultana biscuits and wafer biscuits with cheese. Thanks to the miracle of CalorieKing I now know that, including the chocolate, this adds up to 563 calories (643 with the chocolate) and 21.4g of fat. When I got home I had one of my favourite Lite'n'Easy dinners, special lasagna with a slightly distressing 10.4g of fat, but only 384 calories.
After a lovely nap I stretched my quietly aching muscles with a gentle walk.
Breakfast was porridge again - I measured as I cooked, and used 2 dates (50g), 210ml of low-fat milk, 50gof rolled oats, topped with 50g of stewed rhubarb and 50g stewed raspberries, for a daily total of 1,495 calories and 38.5g of fat (15.5g of which were saturated). Not bad to start - Alex
