Hi Ceithlenn,
thanks for picking up for Em. I'm normally a lookie loo, because I never feel I eat any menu items worth sharing, but I wanted to show my support for the group :) Yesterday was a bad eating/drinking day. I missed my morning meal (protein shake), so forgot my morning vitamins, I had a generic boring lunch, reduced fat string cheese, yoplait 100, and 2 strips of turkey bacon. I forgot my afternoon vitamins, and remembered them at dinner which was 2 oz beef teriyaki (not a great choice to eat), 2 oz talapia, pan seared (no oil) with garlic and lime juice. Then had an orange for snack. So I missed my last calcium and iron before bed, just got too late to take them. SO, hoping today is a better day
B: Premier protein shake - chocolate
L: 1 cup black beans, with 1 oz queso fresco and Herdez salsa
D: 2 oz talapia with garlic and lime juice (again), colache (zucchini, corn kernals, jack cheese)
S: yoplait 100
hoping vitamins and water will all be normal today!
Have a great day & weekend!!
I mostly grill my food, but is a super cold spell right now. I won't grill if it is below 20 degrees. Even in Michigan I have limits lol
Chicken wings are from SAMs club. Just heat in oven.
Pork steak I either grill outside in the snow (not happening today) or I bake in the oven.

this is OT but I"ve been stalled, and I'm really starting to track everything, I can't believe how difficult it is to try and get in all the protein but i've been working hard at at it the last couple of days hoping things will start moving again.
