Memorial Day Food Log!!!!!
okay so there has to be some modifications for "post-op life" on a day like today- can't just eat like a pig and drink beer!!!! (yuck I hate beer anyways)
so here's my day planned
BKFST-low fat yogurt and a few fresh raspberries and blueberries w/ scoop unjury in yougurt (still really pushing the protein)
Snack- deviled egg made with fat free mayo and mustard
Lunch- 1 fat free hotdog with a tiny spoon of baked beans
Dinner - grilled jumbo shrimp and small portion "egg and Potato salad"
Snack- Red white and Blue Berry dessert- strawberries, blueberries and raspberries with a dollop of sugar free fat free (taste free LOL) Cool Whip
the potato salald was made as follows
yukon gold baby potatoes skin left on diced up
fat free cain's mayo
honey mustard
hard boiled eggs
bacon crumbles
I felt hey- I can have a little of this as now I made it with two protein ingredients to fortify it and left the skins on the potatoes as this is where the B vitamins live.
but just a LITTLE. heck with shrimp as the main dish why would I want more than a taste of the potato salad.
Good going "Momo"! Pick a yummy protien to headline a meal and just a taste of the other parts of the holiday fare is more than enough!
That "Cain's Mayo adds a nice taste to the potato salad. I make my potato salad about the same way with the exception of no bacon but add green onion and chopped black olives. Made cole slaw as well. Shredded the cabbage and carrotts and just added the "Cole Slaw" dressing that comes in a bottle. came out great. Have a wonderful hoiliday
B 1 egg and cheese omlette
S 1/2 whole wheat english muffin with cream cheese
L 3oz turkey burger, no bun with 2 tablespoons potato salad
S 1'2 a banana
S D grilling up some rib eye steaks , will have a little of that with a little cole slaw
Had my big mug of decaf this moring along with 3 16oz aquafina's so far today. Went to gym early with ray to get that out of the way. Came home and we set up the outdoor stuff and cleaned the garage. I need a nap!
Hope everybody has a great day!
