What did you eat today?

[Catrin]

Sunday is always strange if I go to church, which I did today

B: steel cut oats with 1 scrambled egg white + 1 whole egg; blueberries, a few almonds, skim milk and coffee

L: Powerbar Performance energy bar

90 minutes weights workout

Post-workout snack - Luna Protein bar
I was still starving, so grabbed a chicken+alfalfa sprout on whole grain bread from the cooler at the gym

D: Pretty much grazed as I traveled here and there. 1 cup salad with a bit of Catalina dressing, 1 tiny roasted skinless chicken breast, 7 roasted garlic asparagus spears, 1 teaspoon peanut butter with 3 small squares dark chocolate, a bit of skim milk. This was all over the course of about 3 hours and two different places.

Still below my calorie goal for today (by a fair amount) but a little better than yesterday

B#1, before planned breakfast ride: bowl of non fat Greek yogurt with whole wheat flakes and blueberries, one cup coffee
B#2, during ride: 1.5 short stack apple pancakes, piece of ham, half a cup of coffee. DH and I should have split our order, neither of us could finish.
S: packet of nuts and cranberries
D: at restaurant, again... it's restaurant week. glass of red wine, small empanada with veggies, grilled salmon, terrine of veggies, 3 slices of fried potatoes, slice of Machengo cheese with quince

B: 2 scrambled egg whites, steel-cut oats with 5 almonds and blueberries, skim milk, coffee
S: apple, low-fat/skim cheese stick
L: garlic roasted asparagus, roasted skinless chicken breast, brown rice
S: banana, 1 tsp PB

D: Wonderful chicken souvlaka (spelling?) with tziki sauce/pita appetizer, Greek green beans and potatoes, a bit of rice, and half a baklava for dessert. It was a wonderful restaurant and while I hardly ever have an appetizer and never have a real dessert, it was a very nice meal.

I did finally made my new calorie target...and went over by roughly 100 calories...but I rarely go out so it was a nice change. Good food, good company

Interestingly enough, I finished the day with roughly the percentages of carbs/protien/fats that my nutritionist wants me to have. Of course you can only approximate what you can track from a restaurant meal, the unknown from dinner was the amount of olive oil...so I approximated when I logged it all.

B: 1 scrambled egg white with 1 whole egg; steel cut oats with a couple of almonds and cranberries + bit of PB, skim milk, coffee
S: small apple with 1 tsp PB
L: left over chicken souvlaki, broccoli, brown rice

D: roasted skinless chicken breast, left-over garlic-roasted asparagus, 1/2 cup brown rice, 1/4 cup almonds/dried cranberries/cashews, skim milk

Still below my calorie target for a workout day, but not by too much. Nutritional splits pretty much on target though a little too much protein (supposed to get about 90, this was closer to 111).
