What was on your menu today?
Thanks for starting this, Amy. Sometimes I feel like everyone has to be eating soooo much more than me.... Of course, having an eating disorder means that other times I feel like I must be pigging out... So this helps.
Today
1 extreme smoothie protein shake
The inside of a spicy salmon sushi roll - 1 to 2 ounces of salmon with 1 teaspoon of avocado - (couldn't eat the rice)
1 sugar free protein bar
1/2 C mixed beans with 1 tsp of blue cheese salad dressing
Midday is the toughest for me. I get very gaseous and nauseated. The sushi didn't work at all well today, but it has been fine at other times. I guess I'll stick to cup-of-soup for lunch tomorrow.
Dotsie
8am - 1/2 cup grits with melted cheese and an egg fried in low-fat cooking spray
11am - 1 cup of spinach salad w/boiled egg, cheese & low-fat ranch dressing
2pm - salmon patty, 3 stalks of canned asparagas (cold w/vinegar on it!-YUM)
5pm - quesadilla made w/ 1 whole wheat low carb tortilla, refried beans, shredded cheddar & sour cream
8pm - no sugar added frozen fudgecicle
in between meals i had:
10 oz mug of decaf w/soy milk & splenda
11 oz atkins advantage protein shake
60 ounces of water or crystal light
and a protein bar
we had tropical storm conditions here with wind/rain all day and i was at work 10+ hours (work for insurance company) so the only exercise i got was running my mouth and answering the phone all day . i should have used my gazelle tonight but didn't.
This was my second day without my morning protein drink. I have been to two GNC stores and both were out...of course that is not unusual in New Orleans these days! Anyway it sure has been hard getting in my protein without my drink to supplement.
B: 1/2 c Special K Protein cereal w/ 1% milk, 1/2 slice protein fiber toast
S: handful of cashews
L: 2 oz. of Fuddrucker's chicken breast w/a couple of grilled onion and mushroom slices
After work I will probably have some rotisserie chicken with some mayo and ritz crackers. And if I get hungry later in the evening, I will have 1/4 cup of oatmeal. My fave!
