A day in the life of a points addict...

Tuesdays are the worst days...but they don't have to be.  You can always make them better by pinteresting "Things to Make Tuesday Better."  I'll take "have an office wide arm wrestling contest" today.

I thought it might be fun today to breakdown how I manage/budget my daily food stuff.  Let's face it, I LOVE FOOD.  Food, however, is like a boy in a Taylor Swift song.  I just replace "you" with "food" and sing in my car, alone...well, unless Tyagan is in the car.  He doesn't count as an embarrassment obstacle; now he is just an unwilling and captive audience (because the car is moving and the doors are locked).

Any who...this is what I ate today:

Morning - 5 p (after hitting the snooze button 3x-don't worry it's just playing "22" from Tay Tay's last album.  Believe me, Tyagan loves waking up to it-mwhahahahah).
1 piece TJs Multigrain Bread -2 p
2 Tbsp. PB2 (PB Powder mixed with 1 Tbsp water and smeared on bread) -1 p
Apple Slices (lay on top of PB2 and Bread)- 0 p
2 Tbsp. Creamer (Girl Scout Caramel & Coconut) - 2 p
           -For the record, I stock up on this creamer like the zombie apocalypse has commenced.  Worth every point.

Mid-Morning Snack - 2 p (don't judge-I feel like Mindy: "You know I have to eat every two hours.")

1/2 c. FF TJ Cottage Cheese- 2 p
1 cup raspberries (or the entire container-who's counting fruit)- 0 p

Lunch- 7 p
Overnight Oats (total 7 p)
1/2 c TJ Old Fashioned Oats- 4 p
1 c Almond Milk-1 p
1 scoop Big Train Fit Frappe Mocha- 2 p

Afternoon Snack 4 p (don't judge me-I went to spin class and was hungry)
Grapes - 0 p
Cheese Slices - 4 p

Dinner 7 p
Pizza - yum! (total 7 p)
FlatOut Pizza Crust (I get them at Target) - 3 p
1/4 c. tomato sauce - 0 p
1 oz TJ lite Mozzarella - 1 p
3 oz. chicken breast (I added 1 Tbsp of Frank's Buffalo Sauce)- 3 p
Small Spinach Salad with Strawberries - 0 p

Dessert 1 p: after dinner decaf coffee with 1 Tbsp creamer (1 p)

Points total 26

So there you go, a day in the life of a points addict.  I'll keep ya posted with some typical days, and give you the skinny on all the things!
