Calorie Countdown - What did you eat on Tuesday?

Hi ladies, I just got back from the doc, who is as of yet, unconcerned about my tummy aches.  We are going to try the zegerid for acid, and I see him again after I have my 6 month blood work. So, what did you eat today?

Hey Jen,  Glad your back. Hope the Zegrid works for you, I took it for a few months and it worked great for me. My gastro called the the miracle pill! I've had a "hungry day" today. Don't get those often but try to up my protein when I do.

Well here is what I've eaten and will eat today.  I've also had a hungry day, probably because I didn't eat much of anything yesterday.  B - Atkins advantage chocolate chip granola bar L - 1 cup sliced strawberries and 1/2 spinach and chicken quesadilla (1 mission whole grain tortilla, 1/2 cup mozzarella and sharp cheddar cheese mixture, 1/4c baby spinach, 1 green onion, 1/2 rotisserie chicken breast chopped up and soaked in a little lime juice) S - venti iced NF SF caramel latte D - 1/2 apple, 1 egg prosciutto and veggie omelet (1 egg, 1/2c mozzarella, 1/2 red bell pepper, 1 green onion, 1/2c baby spinach, 1 slice proscuitto) Edit - I liked my first quesadilla so much I made a second one with honey mustard instead of lime juice.  It added several grams of fiber and about 40 calories.  Calories - 964 Fat - 34g Carbs - 93g Fiber - 20g Protein - 72g Fat is a little higher than I like (I prefer around 25-30g) but I have a lot of cheese in my diet today. 

I'm trying to really watch it the next month - I want to lose 10 pounds before my Adventure Race camp. So, now more little snacks for now, I'm in training mode! Pre-workout snack: chocolate mousse yogurt (I think I have tricked myself into thinking this is a good snack because it has 'yogurt' in the title. it's not bad, but there is better) breakfast: peanut butter pudding lunch: WW Homestyle Chicken with green beans snack: banana and atkins protein bar snack: protein bar dinner: 4 ounces of meatloaf and 1/2 c. green bean casserole snack: 2 granola bites snack: 1/2 c. Strawberries with 1/4 c. sugar free cool whip calories: 1737 fat: 75 Carbs: 194 Fiber: 32 Protein: 91 water: 88 ounces Not bad for today - I got in my 2 veggies and 2 fruits, which was my goal. And I only ate 1 tootsie roll! That was quite the accomplishment, since EVERYONE here at work seems to leave them at my desk - ugh.

Hey PJ....I'm always looking for new things for breakfast so I don't get bored...what exactly is the peanut butter pudding you ate...homemade????  Please advise.  Thanks!!   HUGS  Jeanine

No problem, it's one of my favorite's and is very tasty, especially if you like peanut butter (I LOVE IT!!) It has just enough of a peanut butter taste to make it oh so good. And it's nice and thick so it doesn't slide through too fast. ingredients 1 3/4 skim milk 2 Tablespoons peanut butter (they call for reduced fat, i use the regular because I like the taste better) 1 small box sugar free instant vanilla pudding mix Blend the milk and peanut butter well. Add the pudding mix and blend until completely blended and nice and thick. Pour into 4 - 1/2 cup serving bowls and refrigerate. calories: 112 fat: 4 gm carbs: 14 gm fiber: 1 gm protein: 6 gm You definitely need to let it sit in the frig for a few hours before you eat it, that makes it a little bit thicker. I use it for breakfast but at times use it for a snack too.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!  Yummmmmmmmmmmm   HUGS  Jeanine

Hey Jen Really happy the Doc is not concerned!  MY week is gonna be really messed up because of DH not working it means he wont be around to get my son after school, which means that I have to take him to work with me untill I get off and then I can't go to the gym after work because I have to bring Jake home first which sucks because I live 30 miles from the Gym So I would have to drive 30 miles home and 30 miles back to the Gym. The answer to your question is no there is no Gym closer.lol    Also My Baby is double digits tomorrow so we have a party planned I still haven't figured out how i'm going to get everyone there. So todays NUT info is. B= 2 egg whites  L= 2 oz chedder cheese 4 slices pepperoni and 8 crackers D= 3 oz chicken salad 1/2 a tomato and 1 serving pretzel chips  s=hot coco sf ff with protein  Protein = 43 fat=41 carbs=67 Calories =861 oh btw I found hawian punch sugar free singles and they are really good :)  and I drank only one cup of coffee today and I went to Dunkin and ordered a caffiene free tea :)  huge step! lol Thanks 

mmmm hawaiian punch does sound good.  I'll have to look for that! You sound like your life is just going to be crazy for a while.  Do they have an area in the gym for kids?  Our gym has something like that.
