What did you eat today?

[Owlie]

Late breakfast: Bowl of cereal with 1% milk
S: Cup of coffee.
Late lunch/early dinner: 3-egg omelet with cheddar, tomato, onion, garlic and half a chili pepper. I ate the rest of the onion and tomato on the side. Sort of a pico de gallo, without the cilantro (because I ran out). Pomegranate limeade to drink.
I think I'll have something later. There will be an apple and perhaps carrots involved--I think I ate my cholesterol allowance for the month!

fresh baked quinoa biscuits with quince paste and Parmesan
Salad( avocado, red cabbage, green pepper with balsamic and mustard)
Steamed green beans, carrots, okra and chinese mushrooms. I think elephant ears and the one that look like tentacles.
Red quinoa( with hot sauce yum!)
Baked mushrooms

Elephant ears= shitake mushrooms?
Those quinoa biscuits sound good and interesting. We just bought some fresh quince. Got to check a recipe book on what to do with them.

Yesterday

Supper: homemade green curry tomato, red pepper, onions, garlic and ginger root. Over brown rice.

Today
B- oatmeal with milk, tangerine, tea with milk
Snacks- pumpkin scone, coffee with milk
2 tangerines, slice of cranberry pistachio bread, raisins, tea with milk

I skipped dinner because I was still full from breakfast and lunch. I really should start eating giant breakfasts every day!

Today I fell off the wagon again:
I woke up around lunch time, so no breakfast. I had a cup of black tea with milk and sugar, followed an hour or so later with a whole-milk chai latte from the place down the street and most of a cinnamon bun (DBF had the rest)--I figured I needed a treat after last night's adventures! Dinner was a spinach/lettuce salad with artichoke hearts, feta, parmesan and romano and oil-and-vinegar dressing. DBF brought back a decaf white mocha from Starbucks for me.

I'm not cycling much these days other than short easy rides. I have adrenal fatigue, which makes me ... you guessed it ... fatigued. I need a lot of rest and I need to eat every two or three hours. I'm trying to up my whole foods, veggies, etc.

BREAKFAST

Trader Joes Instant Apples & Cinnamon Oatmeal w/ Almond Milk

Trying to make myself switch to non-instant with no sugar, but someone has to finish the box first! Ha! I have Truvia in my oatmeal when it's not pre-sweetened. I really need to have more protein with each meal and I do find I can't last long on just oatmeal and almond milk. I am more satisfied when I have eggs, so that's my norm ... and what I had for lunch.

LUNCH

2 Eggs, sunny side up (organic)
Half an avocado (not organic, cause it's not as important since I'm not eating the skin ... pricey to do organic, so I try to do the most important stuff organic.)
3 slices of tomato (organic)
1 slice whole wheat sourdough toast (with no sugar or preservatives)

SNACK

Organic Apple with Organic Peanut Butter ... no sugar added

DINNER (haven't eaten yet, but this is what we're having)
Sauteed Chicken Strips ... yep ... organic, uncaged, etc. (was going to grill the chicken, but decided to make the kind my daughter loves, since she won't like what else we're having!)
Mashed Sweet Potatoes
Salad

SNACK

Might have a piece of toast with peanut butter. I'm really trying to avoid sugar lately, so this is sort of my dessert. I might have a mango instead if they're ripe. I'm really not supposed to have a lot of fruit right now. The sugar makes my adrenals work harder.

I'm going to a nutritionist tomorrow, so who knows what she'll do to my diet! It's a little scary.
