    The Amazing Soup Diet – Day 5

    Posted by Pyrrh on December 11th, 2009

    Today’s food:

    Breakfast – Strawberry-Orange Smoothie

    The smoothie was good. Instead of an English Muffin with butter, we had a mini bagel with 2 tbsp of fat-free cream cheese.

    Lunch – Waldorf Chicken Salad


    This salad was delicious. I had mine without the lettuce and it was plenty of food.

    Dinner – Thai Shrimp Soup
    I’ve never had coconut milk in soup before. This was a big hit with the entire family. I strained a cup of vegetables from the Basic Soup, heated them in the microwave, added some heated snow peas, used a cup of broth to boil the shrimp and soaked noodles for a few minutes, added it all to the vegetables, then put in the coconut milk, cayenne pepper, and lime juice. The hint of sweetness from the shrimp, peas, and coconut was fantastic.

    Today I ate everything and was full for every meal, but ended up having to use my second 100-calorie snack tonight; I had some oatmeal.
