Dawn: That tuna apple salad looks delicious!!! Thank you!

[blondebunny]

Lil - You are welcome. I love finding new things cause i get too bored with food.. lol

[lillyo]

Ditto. I recently heard that on the average diet, most people only eat 10 foods over and over and over cuz they are afraid to venture out.

Similar to Chris' "thing" about not repeating a wo, I also try not to repeat a dinner (unless it's leftovers).

...On the turkey sandwich, it is 220cal---my bread is 110cal per slice! I get the roughest, grainy'est, darkest bread I can find. Ahhh, maybe this uses those "thin slice" breads.

[blondebunny]

yes i use the same bread as you do. I like the whole grain breads better. Just adjust your calories accordingly.

On the subject of bread... "the roughest, grainy'est, darkest bread I can find" is the way to go... You can be picky like me and not be satisfied with breads containing corn syrup, but I sometimes think that's a bit overboard. At this point, you have enough to worry about in just getting the details of the diet worked out....
Sounds good to me!
