Grilled Shrimp Salad

Hello friends!

Well day 3 has been successful! Since I wrote this morning this post won't be long. I had a good day at work and had a nice dinner and got to catch up with some girlfriends this evening. We went to Cyclone Anaya's - cool little "Mexican" food place! I went online and looked at their menu before leaving so I could make a smart decision for dinner. I decided on the grilled shrimp salad - which was very simple. Grilled shrimp, avocado, jicama and some sort of dressing. I got mine minus the avocado (I LOVE avocado but didn't want to use the points on it) and minus the dressing. Instead of dressing I asked for balsamic vinegar on the side, which I really like as a substitute for salad dressing. Its just tangy enough, and gives the salad a good flavor. So dinner was a success, AND I kept my hands off the tortilla chips!

Here's what I had to eat today:

Breakfast:
Thomas 100 Calorie English Muffin - 1 pt.
Dannon Lite & Fit Vanilla Yogurt (4 oz) - 1 pt.

Lunch:
WW Smart Ones Fettucini Alfredo - 4 pts.
Fiber One Oats and Chocolate Granola Bar - 2 pts.

Afternoon snack:
Jell-o Sugar Free Pudding - 1 pt (I like this better than the mousse)
WW String Cheese - 1 pt.

Dinner:
Grilled Shrimp Salad with tomatoes and jicama, dressed with balsamic vinegar (counting 1 tsp. EVOO as I'm sure the shrimp was grilled with some oil) - 3.5 pts.

Dessert:
WW Ice cream candy bar - 3 pts.

I still have 3.5 points left for today! Not sure yet what I'll use them on. I am feeling satisfied from my salad and dessert. On the menu for tomorrow - Spaghetti with meat sauce for only 6 points per serving! I'll be back tomorrow to tell you all about it.

Until next time, happy life, happy eating and thanks for reading!!
