Burger & Fry Kinda Night

Want to give a shout out to Jenny, who was down 1.4lbs at her WI today. Awesome work chickie! Still waiting to hear Janna’s results, crossing my fingers for her!

I must confess that I did have a minor slip up this afternoon, nothing that a few WAP can’t handle though. :) I was hungry and craving something sweet after my walk home and ended up making a tortilla roll-up with a tbsp of cream cheese and a smear of chocolate frosting that has been hiding in the fridge. It was good; counted for in my handy journal (4 pts) and I’ve put a stop to this by getting rid of the temptation.


I know, nasty shot of the garbage can, but you get the point. Oh and for the record, the take out container is hubby’s. :) Feels good to write all this out though, think this helps with the behaviour modification.

So, Is anyone else glad Wednesday is a holiday? Breaks the week up quite nicely IMO. Tomorrow night I’ve got a date with my Mom! I won tickets from The Coast to see the film Coco Avant Chanel so we’re making it an evening out with dinner beforehand at The Peppermill. Being the good little Weight Watcher that I am, I’ve already decided on the spinach salad and grilled chicken. Watch for a review of the dinner and the film. :)

Speaking of dinner…..on tonight’s Supper menu is one of my fav meals of all time. I only discovered black bean burgers earlier this Summer and now they’ve become a weekly staple in our household. Even the hubby, who is a tad picky, loves ‘em!


The burgers are made with organic black beans, mixed bell peppers, onions, BBQ sauce, flour & seasonings. There is no real recipe, you can use whatever type of beans you want and throw in whatever chopped veggies & seasonings you have on hand. I got the ratio amounts of beans:flour from Kath. On occasion, I have used breadcrumbs instead of flour too and it worked just fine. Oh and Frank’s Red Hot Sauce is great in them!




I’m a huge fan of the Weight Watcher’s Hamburger Buns, I think it’s the cornmeal. hehe. Topped my burger with some yummy old cheddar, ketchup, mustard, tomatoes and baby spinach. Sides of cucumber & McCain SuperQuick Fries.


Plans for the evening include a date with my elliptical machine and my DVR’d Gossip Girl episode. I’m excited about exercise again and am glad to be out of whatever rut I was in. :)

Hope you all had a wonderful start to the week!
