Okay...so I had

cinnamon
PureVia (Natural Sweetener)
1/4 cup lowfat cottage cheese

Seedless Red Grapes
Cup of Decaf Coffee with PureVia Sweetener

Someone told me to try some cottage cheese in my oatmeal with sweetener and cinnamon. I am happy that i got my protein in for breakfast.....but honestly....the cottage cheese isn't something I would do very often, in my oatmeal. I am always willing to try something at least once though. I do like cottage cheese...just not in my oatmeal.

I am happy though...that there were 20 grams of Protein in my breakfast!

How about some fresh fruit salad?
