I'll do yesterday:

L: Costco dawg! Loads of kraut, sorry its the German in me, I can't help it. :) with a diet coke; I'm a sucker for a $1.50 lunch!
snack?: piece of lasagna, slice of pumpkin bread
after workout snack: cup of homemade yogurt with strawberry preserves in it

I must add I also did 90 minutes of spinning and I am doing a lot of strength training right now so I am intentionally adding more protein; I am aiming for a net of about 1500 calories on days I'm not working out and 1700 on days I do. That will go up when the weather gets better and I can do LONG rides. I'm training for a brevet but I'm also trying to lose weight at the same time, not a easy thing I'm discovering. :confused:
I'm working on it!Quote:
