Day Six - Friday April 24

I only work every other Friday, so I was off this week. Any diet is harder for me when I'm home - I'm much more tempted to snack! But I pulled it off okay, esp. since I was happy about my weight loss so far. Amazing how a little success motivates you! Made it through Friday with an estimated 18 carbs...

Breakfast

2 eggs, scrambled - topped with cheese and bacon
1 cup of hot tea (with a packet of sweet and low)

Lunch

2 meat and cheese wraps (recipe on day one blog entry)

Dinner

Salmon Patties

1 can of salmon (pick out the yucky stuff)
2 eggs
2 T minced onion
2 T finely chopped celery
spices - I used paprika, salt, italian seasoning, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and lemon pepper
dash or two of hot sauce
3 T butter

Mix ingredients together and melt butter in skillet, fry salmon cakes in butter.

Broccoli / Bacon Salad

4 c broccoli tops
6 slices bacon, cooked, cooled and crumbled
1/2 c sliced red onion
1/2 - 1 c mayo
2 T white wine vinegar (I had red wine vinegar and used it)
2 packets of splenda (I used sweet and low)

Steam broccoli to crisp but tender, drain and rinse in cool water to stop cooking. Drain well. Mix mayo, vinegar, and splenda to make dressing. Add broccoli, bacon and red onion, mix.

My review: Salmon cakes were very good! Will make again. Broccoli salad was awesome, I would make this and serve at a cookout it was so good!

Snack:

2 pieces of turkey, 1 cup of hot tea (with a packet of sweet and low)
