Accountability - Saturday

Sorry...I lazed out on everyone yesterday..
We drove to pick up an adoptive crab yesterday and met the nicest couple from Australia. People who care about lower life forms like hermit crabs tend to be the BEST people...Boss is having a great time becoming part of a crab community now...Sad little guy was on his own for five years. Now he has new buddies to hang out with. Cool.

My day yesterday:
Coffee
1/3 cup oatmeal, 1/2 cup tvp, 1 cup milk...out of soy (and it bothered me)
3 eggs, 1/4 cup fried potatoes, 2 thin slices of bacon

1 cup microwave kettle corn popcorn
1 protein cereal bar
5 oz beef steak
1/8 cup baked potato

2 SF Cookies
1 serving (well, maybe a tad more cuz my tummy hurt a bit) Blue Bunny NSA Chocolate Fudge Frozen Yogurt...Actually, it's Ice Cream and that is my mistake.

Totals for the day:
Calories: 2060
Fat: 91
Carbs: 186
Protein: 127

Not bad. Not really good but not too bad. How did you do?

Coffee and Creamer
SF/FF lattee
1/2 cup scrambled eggs with cheese
Bean Beef Cheese burrioto from Taco bell insides only.
1/2 slice of pizza
1/2 piece chicken breast maybe 2 oz 1/4 cup pasta (if that much)  and pasta sauce.
snack was a asian mix.
have a good sunday

I know what you mean about the pasta...I can eat cups and cups of salad or meat but give me a bite or two of pasta and I'm done...I figure two bites is about a 1/8 cup of something..

Your menu looks yummy for the day. You have a good sunday too. Mine will be good, hopefully.

Fair day; too many snacks that are not high in protein. I will work on that this week.

10 percent of the calories you took in is equal to the protein that you took in. I have to think that counts for something. Calories= LOW and Protein = pretty good...

All in all, a good Saturday. AND you worked out...That's definitely a plus. All I did Saturday was ride around in the car and then clean and re-arrange hermit tanks...sigh...No aerobics there. LOL.

Have a great Sunday!

I'm a lurker and love to see what you all eat and now decided to add and see what you all thing of my eating habits. I don't have any nut that I can consult and no support group to go to. Basically? on my own.
Here goes:

Pre Brkfst: 16oz coffee w/ 17gms protein powder
Brkfst: 1 scrambled egg w/ 3 very thin pieces of bacon, sml biscuit (bad I know)
        16oz coffee
       20oz crystal lite
S: 1 baby bell cheddar cheese
       16oz coffee ( do you see a pattern?)
       20 oz crystal lite
Lunch: salad w/ lettuce, cucs, cherry tomatoes, 1tsp chopped egg, 1Tbsp shredded cheddar cheese w/ meat from a sml rotiserie chicken breast w/ low fat italian dressing
       20oz crystal lite
S: hard boiled egg
        16oz coffee
D: 3/4 c fat free cottage cheese w/ 1/2 farm picked peach
 S: lances toast cheese peanut butter crackers. (another bad choice)

    So what do ya'll think? give me your honest opinion and any suggestions.

Donna, sfy (southern fried yankee)

My honest opinion? I couldn't maintain my weight on what you have here and I don't think you're getting enough water. What is your goal?

Eggs, to me, are a pretty low rate protein provider. three eggs is half of what my breakfast with TVP and soy milk is and I don't think that's all that great. My breakfast is usually 28 to 36 grams of protein with a 10 oz cup of coffee..

Why so much coffee? I'm addicted to the stuff, myself. I have two cups before I leave for work and one more when I get there and it's harder than heck to stay away from it the rest of the day but I found that one more caffeinated drink about 1-2 pm does me fine so long as I get enough protein..

Your lunch looks good but I can't tell how much meat you're getting..From what I can recall too, the rotiserie chicken was a bit on the greasy side...I didn't like it as much as my own grilled chicken breasts..But again, that's just my opinion (and my pouch talkin).

Have you tried journaling your food on something like dailyplate or fitday? That would give you totals on your calories, fat and protein...carbs is secondary to me but I know I'm going to feel it if they're higher than200 grams in a day..
