Forgot to post this last night!

Dinner: salmon burger patty, trader joes spinach dip & flat pretzels, water

Post workout snack- trader joe’s omega 3 nut/craisin mix

Ate too many carbs today.

I’m okay with the pasta for dinner because I had ran and needed to replenish them.. but I should’ve skipped the 1/2 roll… and pretzels during lunch.. and popcorn for an after dinner snack.

Super glad I’m tracking my meals on here so that I can reflect on my eating habits after the fact.

Tomorrow I have SGT at night, so I’ll need some carbs afterwards as well as a good amount of protein to recover, but I am going to try and keep carbs low throughout the day!

Lunch/Snack/Dinner

lunch: salad w/ veggies & turkey, trader joe’s spinach dip & trader joe’s flat pretzles, an apple, water, 2 malt balls.

Pre-workout snack- small banana, water

Dinner: chicken w/ pasta, 1/2 roll, side salad, and a small handful of dark chocolate covered raisins, water

yummmm. had a few cheats but very small amounts. I’m okay with it. 

Made lots of hardboiled eggs last night…

guess you know what I’ll be having for breakfasts/lunches for the next few days :)

Planning food for tomorrow…

Breakfast- Strawberries/Grapes & protein bar OR Eggs

Optional Snack- orange

Lunch- mixed greens w/ turkey, raw almonds/cashews/raisins mix, hummus & snap peas

Pre-workout snack- protein shake

& Lots of water, of course!

Going to Trader Joe’s tomorrow

soupeddd!

Things I want:

Snap pea snacks (the dried ones)

Olive oil popcorn

Dark chocolate covered-somethings :)

diced veggies for salads

hummus

possibly some greek or non-fat yogurt

nuts/raisins

ETC

Breakfast :)

2 hard boiled eggs (whites only)

small bowl of strawberries

vitamins & water

- probably should’ve eaten more eggs to get more protein in, but if time permits, I’ll have some almonds/walnuts as a snack before lunch. Thinking about having turkey on mixed greens, banana, and something else for lunch :)

Pretty much splurged on food this past weekend…

so back to more clean eating starting today. Fruits, veggies, meats, and way too many salads, here I come.

-side note- I DO NOT feel bad at all about enjoying food over the weekend. It felt nice ordering food without thinking about how many calories it was. I also did a ton of walking- yet another reason why I don’t care that for a few days, I ate “normally.”

Today’s intake

Breakfast- 2 hard boiled eggs (whites only), protein muffin, vitamins, CLA

-2 starbursts

Lunch- salad w/ turkey, mixed veggies, black bean & corn salsa as dressing; small bowl of strawberries, vitamins/CLA

Pre-workout- pure protein chocolate peanut butter protein bar

Dinner- salad w/ mixed veggies, grilled chicken, and oil & vinegar dressing; 5 olives, CLA

Snack- almonds/cashews/mixed raisins mix 

pretty damn good :)   that bowl of starburst at work is killing me!
