What bakery, Reesha? Not that I would go there :).

1 piece pizza w/ sausage
snack handful of goldfish crackers
1 margarita (hubby testing a new recipe) yum!
D: 4 slices of sirloin steak, roasted potatoes, zucchini, 1/2 glass red wine
Today is going to be a food disaster. It started out fine....
6:00 very small banana
6:30 60 minute run
8:00 bowl of scottish oatmeal with another very small banana and some flaked coconut mixed in. Plus 1/2 cup of nonfat greek yogurt.
9:30 went to the grocery to pick up some lettuce and cilantro and couldn't resist a triple grande skinny hazelnut latte and one of those petite vanilla scones - those things are teeny, but they still have 140 calories! :o
Still, the Starbucks indulgence wouldn't be the end of the world, except today is "Fiesta Friday" at TE. We're having a huge Mexican Potluck! Dishes brought in include carne asada, stuffed poblano peppers, plus all the "usual" suspects (chips, guac, tortillas, cheeses, salsas, drinks, etc.) It's like a dieter's minefield in the kitchen today!
Mmm, mini vanilla bean scones! Yum!
I'm back to update for last night's dinner...again. My husband doesn't particularly like the pumpkin beef dish, so he's always finding ways of distracting me when I plan to make it. Last night, he distracted me by offering to cook dinner. He made bacon and eggs with a heap of veggies mixed in. It was delicious!
Today
B - 3/4 cup plain yogurt, 1/2 c sliced strawberries
S - coffee w cream, lara bar
L - same as yesterday - 3 cups mixed veggies, 3 oz chicken, yellow curry sauce
S - 1 oz raw cheddar, apple, 1 oz spiced nuts
D - unknown but I might make caramelized onion frittata (I know better than to plan to make that pumpkin dish again - I'm going to make it over the weekend and have it for my lunches next week).
sounds yummy! I think I might try that with chicken sausage :)Quote:

Saturday:
B: skipped
L: Went out to lunch with my parents. Giant sandwich (turkey, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, mustard, and other stuff), chips, Italian soda, a whole-milk latte, a quarter of a scone with clotted cream, and some kind of custard-filled tart with cream and toasted coconut on top.

Bad day today...in both not enough calories and content:
B: 1 Ezekial bread toast with peanut butter, 1 cup skim milk
Snack 1(coffee hour at church) - Power bar with really bad coffee
Snack 2: small apple with a bit of PB with much better coffee
80 minute ride - 16 miles of Catrin rocking it & feeling great on her Gunnar :)
L: 3 ounces baked tuna steak sammy with sprouted wheat bread, mustard, 3 small slices of low(er) fat Irish white cheddar
"D": (Reception at church) small amount of hummus, pita, guac, 2 little tortilla chips, LARGE home-made shortbread cookie - half of which was dipped in dark chocolate (yummmmmm). REALLY BAD decaff coffee - but good for dipping cookie.
I am quite sure I came nowhere near where I should have for calories, and way too many carbs I am sure, and the cookie was probably the closest thing to a vegetable. However, one day out of how many? Tomorrow is another day :)
Doesn't REALLY BAD COFFEE provide negative calories??? :cool:

L: 4-5 meatballs with 1 piece wg bread and butter
Cup of tea with honey
