Need To Eat Extra Calories Tonight

I got to the end of the day and needed to eat more calories! Whoohooohoo! I could have eaten HALF this tasty dessert and been satisfied, but since it was my first time, I didn't do too badly! As usual, I weighed everything and I think half would have been better.

100g strawberries (would have been fine with 50g)
2T heavy cream
7g mini chocolate chips

LOVE fresh blueberries on my morning cereal, too!

We planned on eating lunch at Costco today. Uh, yeah, not any choices for me! So...I took my salad with me! LOVE the Pyrex covered dish, was perfect size (red lid).

Did I tell you? I'm eating my salads with a spoon now! I can get a nice heaping bite with a spoon...because the delectable morsels often fall off the fork, leaving me with a bite of lettuce, one bean and maybe an onion...with the spoon, I can gather several tasties in one bite!

Contains:
100g romaine lettuce raw
flank steak 85g
garbanzo beans fm 50g
sesame sticks FM 10g (15 pieces)
sugar snap peas 15g
red onion raw 25g
raw celery 50g
DRESSING: newmans balsamic lite 30g   (LOVE this dressing!!!)
353 calories, 16g fat, 19g carbs, 30g protein

Evaluation:
Fantastic flavor! I think it is the raw onion that brings it home! Not sure the sesame sticks are worth 4 grams of fat, though. Nice, but not stellar. It was really empowering to plan ahead and eat what I wanted instead of having to compromise over something really high carb (pizza, chicken wrap thing, hot dog on bun).

Did even more DDP Yoga today. Did not walk, but we spent HOURS shopping today! Does shopping count as exercise? Didn't I burn calories walking and standing around!?

UPDATE: I forgot that I ate a meal replacement bar! I should not have had dessert!
