My husband and I took a drive out to see the new Wegman's supermarket - about 20 miles from our house but we wanted to see what the fuss is all about. Personally, I wouldn't go there again. It was so overwhelming and I didn't find the prices to be that great. No only that, all their effort was put into the outside aisles - the fresh deli and meat counters, cheese counters, produce, etc. and I found the inside aisles with regular groceries to be very depressing and dark - just, in general, not a place I would ever shop even if it were in my own neighborhood. After spending $89, however, we returned home with still nothing for dinner. Then I went to our usual store, but I was so shopped out nothing appealed to me so the rest of the family is getting either left overs or grilled cheese sandwiches and I will have some lentil soup and maybe a tuna sandwich.... as I work out my points below I'll decide....
Breakfast: WW bagel + 2 wedges of lite LC cheese (4)
Coffee with 2 TBS cream (2 - and worth every Point!)
Tomato slices
Lunch: 6 ounces of chicken (6)
2 large carrots (in desperate need of crunching!)
--- I ate this standing over the sink the minute we walked in from the grocery store. I couldn't even begin to wrap my head around having an actual meal! I figured it was smarter to grab some chicken than bread, snacks, or even fruit. It held me well until dinner so it was a good choice after all. :)
Dinner: 4 ounces lean deli ham (4)
4 slices WW rye bread (2)
Sliced tomatoes, lettuce
, Banana peppers
Lentil soup (4)
(Two sandwiches is what happens when no "real" dinner meal is planned. I'll live. :) )
Snacks 2 fruits (2)
Skinny Cow chocolate truffle (1)
Total: 25
Best surprise today: WW bagels are only TWO points on the old program :)
On the knee front: I used the scooter today at Wegman's. I never EVER could have walked it - and even at that, I am now resting, iced and elevated. I really am so set back in my recovery I think sometimes (when I'm in a pity party mode) that I shall never catch up and be well. I am just praying that a weight loss will make things better for me.

Yep typical Wegmans. I only shopped the outside isles there. We use to go there for dinner like a food court. Everyone got what they wanted/
