Nachos are not core.
The hunger comfort zone is a big part of the core plan. You're not supposed to get too full, but you're not supposed to get too hungry either. Getting too hungry is a major trigger for me. We went to a hockey game this afternoon, and I had had a good breakfast, oatmeal and scrambled eggs w/ f/f cheese (all core) but about halfway through the game I realized not eating lunch was going to be a problem. They don't exactly have core foods hanging out at the concession stand. I have yet to see any fruit there, unless you count fruity wine coolers. LOL. So I went up to the counter to get a large popcorn, what I felt was the best of the worst, and I left with large nachos. Spur of the moment slip. At least I shared them with my husband.
Tonight we had a spinach chicken lasagna recipe with whole wheat noodles. yummy. It wasn't completely core, but it was close.
I had a pretty good week. Over the weekend we hosted a football playoff party, and I served low fat stuff without anyone really knowing. I love to have control over the food. One friend who's on WW brought cookies though, which irritated me but noone shoved them down my throat did they! Oh, that was me...
Weigh in tomorrow. I lost 1.5 last week and would love to do it again.
