Help with Authorized Food List

May 21, 2004

I am having trouble understanding what I can and cannot eat w/the

authorized food list. For example, I eat fruit/veggies for some

meals however what about other things such as reduced fat crackers -

they're not healthy but they're not like eating butter or cheese.

Please advise on some things that you eat for your 6 meals that I

can eat at work (basically simple stuff). Thank you!

Hi Stephainie,

I am gone from home many hours almost every day so I pack all six meals to go

on many occasions. Here are some example meals from my list:

*SpiruTein meal replacement shake (usually vanilla or chocolate and made with

4oz 2% milk. It stirs easily with a spoon although I got this little whip

from Pampered Cheff that works even better)

*Grilled strips of boneless skinless breast of chicken grilled, poached or

baked, added to either a portion of canned beans, or salad greens, or an apple,

pear or orange, or baked sweet potato or acorn squash.

*a portion of 2% cottage cheese, added to 3oz of Dannon Fit and Lite yogurt

(it is sweetened with aspartame so I only have this 2x a week), plus I might

sprinkle a tablespoon of Almond Accents on top (Honey Roasted)

*Two string cheese and an apple or orange

*chilled shrimp and a tablespoon of cocktail sauce, a citrus piece of fruit

*leftovers from dinner usually cooked from the EFL book

*FF deli turkey and RF swiss cheese on whole wheat bread, with spicy mustard

and maybe a tomato and/or lettuce.

*Oatmeal with protein powder stirred in (usually vanilla), and sweetened

slightly with Splenda

*2% cottage cheese with 1/2 chopped apple, a few walnuts crumbled, cinnamon

*Foil pouch tuna served over Wasa crisps

VEGGIES: I also cut up a bunch of raw veggies like bell peppers, celery,

baby carrots, sugar snap peas, zucchini, yellow squash, etc and carrie it in a

zip lock to much whenever I want it.

Hope this helps!

Kelley
