Why can't I get enough calories on an exercise day? I eat, and eat, and eat...and STILL wind up far below where I should be...but it is creeping up. Not being hungry doesn't help...but I know I need it.
B: "mixed" scrambled eggs (egg whites with 1 whole egg), steel cut oats with a few blueberries and a bit of PB, skim milk
S: 10 almonds and a few raisins
L: roasted skinless chicken breast, 2 slices sprouted wheat bread, raw carrots and celery.
S: small apple with a bit of PB
pre-workout snack: Larabar
60 minute group training class, 30 minute Bosu class
A few almonds and raisins while cooking dinner
D: out of ready protein outside of eggs and it is too late to cook it so... 3 egg-white omelet with bok choy and green onions (actually pretty good) with a slice of toasted sprouted wheat bread.
I figured out that I am still almost 700 calories down...so having a snack of skim milk and a few more almonds & raisins for a pre-bedtime snack.
I am glad that I don't have to worry about net calories, just reaching an average target is hard enough! I HAVE noticed that now I am eating more I no longer have trouble sleeping all night long, someone told me that low blood sugar will interfere with sleeping.
