First, the banana oatmeal cake was good. It stuck to the pan so the next day when I made it again for breakfast and lunch I thought, “oh, I’ll use my mini-muffin pan since it’s non-stick.” Bad idea… instead of sticking to one big pan that could easily be scraped and washed it stuck to 24 little holes in a pan.
Dietbet. Yay! I won $45 and that is pure “profit”. It was close though. During this 4 week / 4% bet I had really slacked off. I was losing weight just not at a rate of 1% a week. I had to weigh in Wednesday and happened to be off Monday and Tuesday for a four day weekend. So I spent all four days eating next to no processed food so not a ton of sodium, then I limited to 1,000 calories, drank a ton of water, and made sure I got my 10,000 steps in. I made my goal.
Yes, I know, 1,000 calories is low but it was fine for four days. I average about 1,700 – 1,800 normally so I am far from starving!
Quest bars! I’ve had two more since I worked Wednesday and Thursday.
Chocolate Brownie. 170 calories, 20 grams protein, 19 grams fiber. Ohhh! These are freaking incredible. I can’t say enough about how much I liked these. I think they may have moved firmly into first place for the bars (the peanut butter cups still hold the top spot overall).
Cinnamon Roll. 170 calories, 20 grams protein, 17 grams fiber. These were good. Nothing bad to say about them, I’d eat them again. This is a flavor I might want to try warm since I’ve heard such good things about eating the bars warm.
I don’t know which flavor I’m going to take for my morning today… But for now, time to get up and get some steps in before work!
