This chicken salad had green grapes and toasted almonds. It was especially good. The others ate bread/chips with it, but since I am allergic to wheat, I passed on the starchy things.  I LOVE fruit too. It is amazing the amount of money I spent on fresh peaches this summer. I only live about 1 mile from the orchard, and I visited them about twice a week. As long as I can stick to fresh fruit though, I don't feel too bad. I heard a nutritionist say once that it is REALLY hard to Overeat fruit.  I think that I may have accomplished it a few times this summer, but maybe I didn't damage myself too much!!!

I don't have that particular recipe. It was at a friend's house. Just search for chicken salad with green grapes. I would think that most of the recipes for that would  be similar.

Dang - the truth hurts sometimes!!!  I had another poor day yesterday. There are no groceries in the house and payday aint' til Friday... it's about the worst its been since my wls.  B - oatmeal L - 1/2 BLT (no T, ick!) D - well, I had popcorn..... yup I'm serious!  S - oatmeal No protein drink, no real protein. I'm thinking my level was about 18 g for yesterday!!!!  My dh called last night and asked how I was doing.... boy did I let it all rip!! I was tired and HUNGRY!!!!!! Darn it all - I need to EAT!!  Today he came home with an advancement from his boss and he took me to lunch where I had soup and all the turkey and cheese I could eat!! (my favorite). Then we went to WalMart and I got enough to get through until payday (geee, that was $38)!! The kids are all fine cuz they can eat speghetti and pband j and what not, it's just me who's suffering this week - and I've had enough of it.  Soooo, here's the bad confession part.  At Walmart I "justified" a candy bar for myself. There is ONE kind of waffer& chocolate thing that has low enough sugar for me to eat. I bought it and proudly at the entire candy bar in the car on the way home. I told dh, "I NEED the extra calories" ...... boy what a lame thing to do!!!!  Here's to a MUCH better day tomorrow!!!!!!!!!

I feel your pain with money.. i had a job class change and with it a decrease in pay and going from being paid 2 times a month to 1 time a month.. i still havent adjusted to the change. I am counting pennies right now.

You will make it and I will put in an extra prayer for you. At least you got some protein for the week which is great. keep going.. u are gonna be just fine.
