Afternoon Snack - 3:45

• Nutrisystem Dessert Entree
  Fudge brownie - Not bad. Akin to vending machine brownies (but more cake-like and less brick-o-fudge). I'm a little disturbed by the silica gel packs found in some of these items. I'm glad they're there, but it's so tempting to eat them when they're stuck to the bottom of your brownie.
  

Dinner - Fat and low glyc at 7:30, rest at 10:45

• Nutrisystem Dinner Entree
  Chicken Florentine Fettuccine - heat-and-eat deal, 10oz is huge for these meals, pretty good though. Chunks of chicken are tasty.

  Tomato (yes, I eat it like an apple)
  
• Salad or Fruit Serving
  1/2 banana
  
• Fat Serving
  Peanut butter (what can I say, I love peanut butter)
  
• Low Glycemic Carbohydrate Serving
  Whole wheat bread
  

Dessert - 10:45

• Nutrisystem Dessert Entree
  Oatmeal Raisin Cookie - Single cookie, but tastes like the real thing. Not home-baked good, but it wouldn't be, coming out of a package.
