Is There A "what Did You Eat Today" Thread?

[okieinalaska]

I don't know if this is the right section to ask this in but I have been on weight watchers online before and they have threads where folks will post what they had at each meal. I would love to see something like that here if possible? (is it here and I am not seeing it?)

This would be great to get ideas about what to have for different meals and snacks, shopping lists, and also to help motivate myself to stay on track!

So for example my post for today would like this:

Breakfast:

Hashbrown

2 slices of bacon

Snack:

5 gluten free crackers (I would put the brand but I don't remember, didn't like them as they had fennel in them)

laughing cow cheese light

Lunch:

1/2 rice wrap with turkey, cream cheese, cranberry sauce

1/2 cup Brown tsuru mai rice with a bit of butter

Snack:

1/2 cup Fat free frozen vanilla yogurt

fage? 2% blueberry yogurt

Dinner:

honey rice chex and 2% milk

babybelle gouda cheese

Would anyone else find this helpful?

thank you,

Amy in Alaska

edited to add what else I had today....
