He he he ... hey all ... I finally got a new blender and I am siked to the max!!! Used it for the first time yesterday!!! (Check my menu ... think you will be able to figure that out even if I had not told you) Anyway, it is a smoothie maker and I LOVE IT !!! So with that in mind ... here is my menu yesterday!!! Far more volume/meals than I usually eat per day... not at all a "normal menu" for me. But my menu for yesterday none the less! My average daily intake it about 600/700 calories. Yesterday was the first time I had tried celery and the 'new" peanut butter also!!! Guess looking back, not a good idea to add so many new choices in one day B - 1 Protein Smoothie (Proplete Gold Vanilla pineapple (24 gms protein powder), crystal light sunrise, a few chunks of frozen pineapple and ice) YUMMY (I drank it all, but it took a while) *GRIN* S - 1/2 stalk of celery with a spoon of peanut butter (Better Than Peanut Butter Brand from Trader Joes - THANKS ROB - LOVE IT) L - most of a Chicken wing (no skin) 1/3 to 1/2 serving of beans and cheese from Taco Bell (running and had to eat out) S - 1/4 serving of Protein Smoothie (Chocolate Whey Stack), water, ice) YUMMY - tastes like a Wendy's Frosty - hubby had to fini**** ... I could only drink about a quarter of it. D - 1 oz roast beef 1 oz cheese 1/2 stalk of celery with about a half spoon of peanut butter (Better Than Peanut Butter Brand from Trader Joes - THANKS ROB - LOVE IT) S - about a 1/4 to 1/3 serving of Protein Smoothie (ProScore 100) with fresh ground flax seed, water, ice with a spoon of peanut butter (Better Than Peanut Butter Brand from Trader Joes - THANKS ROB - LOVE IT) YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY and incredibly filling ... hubby had to fini**** off, I was not able to drink less a lot of it!!! Gotta figure out how to make those smoothies smaller!!! *grin* Practice and patience I guess!!! Suggestions appreciated!!! Guesstimate stats for the day (have not logged menu into fitday yet) Approximately 70-75 gms of protein consumed Approximately 700-800 calories Carbs? Not even able to make a guess ... will need to load into fitday to get an idea. **flax seed, celery, pineapple, peanut butter and beans** All my vitamins!!! All my fluids and then some!!! Happy eating!!!
