1:30 LUNCH
HUGE salad with romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, chick peas, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, celery, a sprinkle of shredded cheddar, beets, and about 1/2 serving of imitation crab meat. I know...it's so processed and not good for you. But I couldn't resist. Just ask my friend Kim about my obsession with imitation crab meat...it's like crack/cocaine to me....BUT i did control it. I really only had about 1/2 serving. I then sprinkled some Ken's creamy balsamic dressing. VERY tasty and I got about 5 servings of veggies out of it! Woot woot!

I can't go to bed early tonight. Idol is on. Go James Durbin and Scotty McCreery! Woot woot! 4:30 a.m. is going to come very fast....
I am a huge fan of "Broccoli Slaw" -- have you tried this? Only like 40 cals in the whole BAG! I put it with lowfat dressing (I like Kraft Asian Reduced Fat) OR with some whipped avocado OR with some almonds, honey and craisins.
