The 17-Day Diet - Cycle Two - Day Seven

I'm horrible at weekends...

I ate higher calorie meals three nights in a row... and Jeff brought home some peanut butter Oreos. How am I supposed to resist those? Ugh. I'm actually glad tomorrow is Monday so I can get back to the routine.

Here's tomorrow's higher-calorie menu.

Breakfast:

• 2 scrambled eggs
• 1 baked potato, diced, seasoned, and browned in a frying pan coated with vegetable cooking spray
• 1 orange
• 1 cup green tea

Lunch:

• Black Bean Chili (this is really good); 1 pound lean ground turkey, 2 C black beans, 1 C chopped onion, 2 C tomato sauce, 1 T chili powder, 1 t kosher salt, 1/2 t black pepper; in a saucepan, brown the ground turkey over moderate heat. Add the remainder of the ingredients. Simmer for 20 minutes. Makes 4 servings.
• Large tossed salad with 1 T olive oil and 2 T vinegar
• 1 cup green tea
