What did you eat today?

[Catrin]

Today: Rest day

B: lean pickings - but always plenty of eggs. 1 whole egg + 1 egg white, Ezekial bread, skim milk, coffee
S: banana
L: Cliff bar
S: (after shopping trip and starving) Trader Joe's Sweet Basil Chicken Turkey Sausage, Multigrain Slim, and a very small amount of Trader Joe's "Unexpected Cheddar Cheese" (very sharp white cheddar mixed with Parmesan - wonderful!)

Dinner will either be a nice big salad full of veggies and Amaranth leaves with homemade vinaigrette, or a small home-made "pizza" with same veggies. It depends on how lazy I get One Blue Moon will be included at some point, though skim milk will go with dinner

I left on vacation for the weekend after lunch.
Will report back on Monday.

Today:

B: steel cut oats with almonds and blueberries, 3 egg whites, skim milk, coffee

12.5 mile ride to gym (ate a banana when I got there)
1 hour advanced Bosu class with kettlebells (had a Power bar afterwards)
15 mile hot ride home - starving and as no food was ready had another small Power bar

I seem to get much more hungry when riding in hot weather than when it is a bit cooler - also notice my heart rate tends to trend higher when it is hot.

L: very late - roasted chicken breast, salad with amaranth leaves, carrots, cherry tomatoes, onion, balsamic vinegar, a bit of sharp cheddar cheese. Blue Bell Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream for dessert

D: more roasted chicken breast, strawberries with non-fat yogurt, 1 beer

Still 300 calories short for the day, but that is enough food for one day....at least I am getting much closer to my net calorie targets on heavy exercise days than I once did.

Yesterday: rest day

B: Steel cut oats, 1 whole egg + 1 egg white, skim milk, coffee

L: 4 oz roasted skinless chicken breast and an incredible pasta salad (lots of spinach, olives, a small amount of pasta, tomatoes, onion, feta cheese, I think the dressing was a Greek feta vinaigrette) I bought the salad as I had left part of my lunch home, but it will be easily duplicated

S: 1/4 cup ice cream.....

D: 4 oz roasted skinless chicken breast and Kashi winter wheat cereal with skim milk - not at the same time though. I SO didn't want to cook or do much in the kitchen so settled for whatever required no work at all I spent all evening resting/elevating my knee and reading.

L: broccoli and chicken with a tiny bit of white rice
D: 1 grilled chicken leg and 1/4 of a chicken breast, 1 piece corn on the cob, green beans, sliced tomatoes, 1 beer
