    The Amazing Soup Diet – Day 1

    Posted by Pyrrh on December 7th, 2009

    Today’s food:

    Breakfast: Fruity Cottage Cheese – 6 WW points


    (That white bowl is the cottage cheese.) Now I am the type of person that usually doesn’t even like her food to touch each other on the plate. But I did experiment and take a bite of everything at the same time, and it was surprisingly good. I ate the rest of it separately, though. And it was more food than I am used to eating for breakfast. I saved most of the strawberries for an after-workout snack.

    Lunch: Tangy Roast Beef Sandwich – 8 WW points

    I put mine on a small tortilla instead of bread. It was very tasty, but I will add a little bit of dill and mustard powder to the sour cream and horseradish next time.

    Mom and I both had half a cup of the soup for an afternoon snack.

    Dinner: Minestrone Soup – 6 WW points


    I’m not a fan of minestrone (or any soup really, can you believe I’m on a soup diet?) but this was delicious. And it was very filling. I was happy to save the yogurt and raspberries for an evening snack. Mom wasn’t into the plain yogurt but said it got better when she mashed the raspberries into it. My 1-year-old enjoyed it all with some cranberry juice. My husband loved it, too, with some homemade bread to go with it.
