Yippie! It's a Brownie!
Last night I stayed overnight in Wilkes-Barre along with VLC because we had to do some late evening sneaking into hospitals to drop off flyers, so I was away from my Orange salad-making man this morning. Anticipating that I would be without lunch today, he packed an extra brownie for me yesterday that I left in the fridge at work. It's just over 300 Calories and it's just like the megamuffin except that it's chocolate! I was so happy to see it when it was lunch time.
We've decided to add a half a megamuffin to my daily CR practice. I used to eat a cup of yougurt with some hazelnuts in the afternoon at work, but I had stopped since I'm eating dinner at home with MR many nights and wanted to save the calories for later. However, I'm getting so hungry in the afternoons that I am tempted to eat the nuts on my co-worker's desk! Danger! So we decided to add a half a megamuffin (or brownie) to my day so that I get lots of nutrient-packed sweetness in the afternoon and come home hungry but not starving. I wouldn't want to be so hungry that I walked in the door and immediately took a bite out of my Orange One. Though he is low-fat, high-protein and nutrient-dense, he is not for snacking on.

April,
I enjoy reading your blog and also Mary's and I read it almost every day. I appreciate Mary putting a picture with her name and wondered if you can do the same. Thanks and I enjoy a brownie every now and then also. I have now and always have had a weakness for muffins! Blueberry with that crunchy topping are my favorite!!! But unfortunately they are not very low in calories. Do you happen to know of a low-calorie muffin recipe?
Your Friend,
Melinda
