What did you eat today?

[Owlie]

LOL Crankin at the Danger Zone reference I weighed myself yesterday and was back to what I was before the holiday. My coach and training partner are both chastising me for not eating enough again...I need to add more starchy carbs back into my diet so have been working on that. 1,400-1,500 calories for my current activity level is NOT enough. I KNOW that, and I also know that I gain body fat when my calories drop that low...it is a challenge. I know that, and understand why it is that way, but I do forget.

Today (rest day)
B: frittata, 1 slice bacon, coffee
S: kefir with a small amount of protein powder mixed in
L: roasted chicken, kale chips
S: small apple
D: sweet potato bacon chocolate chili - as soon as it is done! I will have it over baby spinach - this is a fantastic recipe with a great mix of spices. I have a LOT more spices in my cabinet than I once did...

Habits are hard to break!

B: Coffeeeeeee, leftover sweet potato casserole from Thanksgiving
L: Salami on crackers, an apple
S: Tea, buttered English muffin, handful of coconut chips from Trader Joe's
S: More salami (Salt and fat cravings? Must be that time of the month!)
D: Turkey soup/stew (it rides that line) with onion, fennel bulb, white meat turkey, garlic, and a lot of barley in homemade broth. Yum.
