Lunch, Day Seventy


  • 2 oz turkey with 1-1/2 oz Smart Beat cheese & 1 tbsp low-fat mayonnaise on 2 slices whole wheat bread
  • 2 cups lettuce with 1-1/2 tbsp fat-free Italian dressing
  • 1/4 cup dried papaya

I had turkey to substitute for roast beef in a similar meal. It's really satisfying to enjoy one of my favorite things (a turkey sandwich) while adhering to this diet.

I didn't eat this meal until after my afternoon class, so I was ravenously hungry and worried I was going to cheat - I was relieved to have enough ingredients to prepare something, as the rationalization that it was Friday evening and I deserved an indulgence was kicking in really strong. I'm really glad I resisted because by the end of eating this I was thoroughly satisfied and in fact quite full. I especially loved the papaya, again.
