What did you eat today?

Kitchen is bare, but I did, barely, manage to meet my calorie targets - even if there weren't any veggies to speak of! Finally time to shop tomorrow :)

Yesterday:

B:1 whole egg + 1 egg white, Kashi Autumn Wheat cereal with skim, coffee

6am hard group training class
post class - Power Bar (really need to get some protein powder and have something ready to drink on the way to work. I need something that will get into my system quicker)

L: Brown rice medley, roasted skinless chicken breast, banana

S: Trader Joe's mix of almonds, cashews, dried cherries and dried pineapple Yum!

D: 5 ounces roasted skinless chicken breast wrap on whole wheat tortilla, romaine lettuce, a bit of shredded cheddar cheese, skim milk, 2 small squares dark chocolate

S: hot chocolate (skim with a bit of Trader Joe's spicy chocolate mix)

B: cereal, strawberries, 1% milk, coffee
L: 1 piece pizza
Snack: 1 piece whole grain bread. 1 peach
Dinner: (late not till 8), chicken and homemade potato salad

Wednesday

B: cold steak and a peach, black coffee
L: tuna, guacamole, mixed veggies, blueberries
S: spinach/mango/pear baby food
D: bacon wrapped scallops, grilled asparagus

I ate the babyfood because I needed a snack AND because I wanted to try it. This is the food I elected to bring to the hospital to eat after my surgery on Thursday when they make you eat before they let you leave. I didn't want to eat unknown jello and applesauce!

Hope the surgery goes smoothly!

slice of Ezekial bread/soy nut butter before boot camp.
I probably should have had more... we ran outside with weights way too long
B:slice of Ezekial bread with light cream cheese, lox, tomato, blueberries, coffee
L: chicken breast and avocado on a whole wheat tortilla, apple
S: corn tortilla with queso fresco
D: one pork chop, marinated in Asian style sauce, whole wheat angel hair with chili paste/soy nut butter sauce (subbed for peanut butter), 2 squares chocolate

Thursday

S: pouch of baby food (spinach/pear/mango) after surgery
B: bacon, eggs topped with salsa, tea
L: chicken apple sausages, apple with almond butter
D: thai pumpkin curry over steamed veggies, peach & raspberries

B: cheerios, strawberries, 1% milk, coffee
S: handful goldfish crackers
L: chicken sammy on chibatta bread, with bacon, lettuce and tomato
D: pork chop, butter beans, corn bread, sliced cucs, yellow pepper and avocado on the side.
Dessert: peach/raspberry cobbler with vanilla ice cream

B: 2 home made waffles, blueberries, walnuts, 2 slices of turkey bacon
I have been starving. Don't know why, but weight was at the low end today, so hence, the waffles.
L: ham and low fat cheddar on a corn tortilla, cole slaw, an apple
18 mile ride
S: a few whole wheat pita rounds and cheese
D: went out to a local "fine dining" restaurant. We don't go to this place more than 2-3X a year, but we should go more. Had a bottle of red wine, cherry soup (delicious and no cream), and rack of lamb, but only 2 ribs of the lamb, the rest ground up and put in an empanada, with farm fresh squash. We split an ice cream sandwich dessert.

Got to ride a lot this weekend!

Yesterday: Rest day

Kitchen was almost bare...
B: 2 egg whites + 1 whole egg sandwich on Ezekial bread, skim, coffee
S: banana
L: egg white wrap on whole wheat tortilla and skim milk - I refuse to grocery shop on an empty stomach :o
S: 2 tablespoons Blue Bell Southern Blackberry Cobbler ice cream
D: homemade spinach pasta salad with LOTS of baby spinach, small amount of whole wheat organic penne pasta, tomatoes, garlic, red onion, Greek dressing, smoked anoduille chicken sausage, 1 Fat Tire beer

Cherry soup? Interesting idea! I had to resist the lovely cherries at the store. Good price per pound but they were in 5 pound bags - a bit much for one person.

Friday

B: bacon, eggs w/ veggies, black coffee
L: guacamole w/ raw veggies, peach
D: salad from Chipotle (lettuce, guacamole, carnitas, pico, salsa)

I was hardly hungry all day so I had to force myself to eat. I guess that's what happens when you spend the whole day on the couch!

B: egg white omelette with queso fresco, an orange
L: chicken breast and avocado sandwich, with tomato, on Ezekial bread, an apple, coleslaw
S: 21 mile ride,one bottle of Nuun, a couple of whole wheat pita crackers and one piece of Machengo cheese when I got back
D: friends 50th birthday party: 2 glasses white wine, a few crackers and cheese, quarter of a rosemary crusted chicken breast, one lamb burger (no bun) on a tomato with yogurt/mint sauce, salad with wine vinegar, asparagus, slice of chocolate ice cream cake

Saturday

B: sausage and sweet potato hash, eggs, black coffee
L: mango sausage, apple w almond butter
S: blueberries, macadamia nuts
D: steak, snow crab legs, grilled shrimp and mixed veggies

B: steel cut oats with a couple of almonds, a bit of PB, egg whites + 1 egg, skim milk & coffee

1hour 15 minute hard workout (it was for "fun" and was just wild). Apparently my hip flexor is happy with anything outside of running - not the slightest twinge otherwise :) Resisted the desire to take the equally hard advanced Bosu class afterwards...I doubt I really had the energy anyway - it was pretty intense.

S: small Muscle Milk drink
L: A bit of watermelon and a wrap that uses seasoned lamb/beef with a few tomatoes and tahini sauce - yummy! This was at a local middle eastern festival.
S: a bit less than 1/2 cup Blue Bell ice cream
D: sauteed cho fun? (looks like a small bok choy but a bit peppery, and I probably have the name wrong), with brown rice and chicken breast. Skim milk. One beer shortly

B: whole wheat bagel and light cream cheese, lox, tomato, a peach, coffee
L: veggie wrap (whole wheat) during 16.5 mile ride.
D: 3.5 lamb meatballs on a bed of zucchini "noodles," mint pesto, glass of red wine, 2 squares dark chocolate

Crankin - are you making your pesto or does it come from a jar?
