Good Morning All! How are you today? I am pumped and ready to go!! I started my day with a 40 minute workout with Turbo Jam - Turbo Sculpt. OK, I know I mentioned it before, but Turbo Jam is awesome - I love working out in the comfort of my home in the morning and this video set is FUN and I look forward to doing it!! So, I did get in 40 minutes this morning - I won't be able to workout tonight because we have an orientation meeting to go to tonight - Chris and I are checking out Fostering to Adopt infant/s. I'll keep you posted : )
So for breakfast today - I had kind of a lot of calories: 2 whole wheat waffles, 1 tbsp of PB, 8oz. of V8 Fusion and 1 medium banana = 475 Calories - This is high, I like to stay around 300, NO more than 350 - (so I failed here). AM Snack: Yogurt and grapefruit = 220 Calories. Lunch: Bean soup, 1/4 cup shredded cheese, 2 tbsp sour cream, whole wheat chips = 525 Calories. PM Snack: Celery with Peanut Butter = 200 Calories. Dinner: 1/2 whole wheat pita, 3 oz. tuna, 8 cheese chunks = 280 Calories.
So, out of 1700 calories, lets see how I did - 475+220+525+200+280= 1700 - WOW on the nose!! No SNACKING TONIGHT MEGAN!! You had enough calories through the day, you shouldn't be hungry!!! NO snacks at orientation either!!! ONLY have whatever they have to drink : ) I can do it!!!
I'll be back later, I'm sure. I love writing on here and love that you guys are supporting me and reading what I am writing : ) Thank you so much!!

Take some celery (no PB or cream cheese) or green peppers with you! Celery takes more calories to digest than it is to eat!!
ReplyDeleteI just tried a new recipe...
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
2 artichoke hearts
2 stalks of celery
some fresh parsley
lemon juice
olive oil
salt and pepper
YUMMY!! Full of fiber, veggies!!
Sounds great!! I like Natural PB though for the protein. But the beans are good protein too. Oh and I researched the celery thing, it is a myth : ) LOL... I know, I have always heard that too.. you will find sites that say it, but www.sparkpeople.com and other weight tracking sites will let you it's a myth and then tell you why it's a myth - anyway, it's besides the point, celery is great for you!! Thanks for recipe : ) Wait, what do you do, chop it all up and eat it as a salad?
ReplyDeleteyeap I did chop it all up
