Tami--Thanks for the words of wisdom yesterday...

Although my totals look manageable, I feel like I ate just terribly and can't believe these totals are right. I had to guestimate on several things (I didn't really eat eggs at McD's). The scale this morning wasn't so pleasant.

I have a general sense of blah. My half marathon is Sunday, so I'm taking it real easy this week with running--maybe I'm just missing the high from that... I woke up at four this morning and just couldn't sleep... I just ate a donut. :-( I know food is not the answer. I'm just struggling this week--last week was great. I'll get back on the horse eventually. Thanks for letting me vent.

Yesterday I was very snacky (ugh), but really tried to keep it under control by measuring my snacks and keeping them within the plan. Here's what I had:

Chicken coconut curry soup with zucchini
Protein shake (EAS Premium)
2 americanos, each with 2 Tbl half and half
"Eggface"'s chicken carbonara casserole
1/4 c cottage cheese with 6 strawberries
Grilled pork chop (1.5 oz) , cheesy cauliflower (1/4c), green salad with ranch (1cup)
1 oz extra aged gouda and 5 black grapes
1 crustless quiche mini muffin with ham

Calories: 1,240
Protein: 110g
Carbs: 48g

That looks awesome! Don't you just love Eggface? :-)

Oh, yes! I don't know what I'd do without her recipes-she is a lifesaver!

I got my snack on yesterday. Needless to say, it's a strict schedule, soft foods, and protein bars for today at least.

B: Banapple protein bar
S: chocolate protein cupcake
L: greens, beans, and chicken soup
S: Kashi protein bar
D: Shrimp/broccoli/spinach/mushroom/tomato soup
S: 2 nsa fudgesicles
S: chocolate protein cupcake

Now, I was still under 1000 calories for the day, but I'm not counting the "tasting" I did while making the soup and a batch of protein bars last night. Oh well, back on schedule today---staying focused!

It was a shrimp and broccoli kind of day yesterday! :-)

Ok, I got a lil mixed up yesterday because there are 2 monday post? I don't know...
Anyway, I posted this on mondays so I'm posting it on the right day. LOL

Cal~ 1111
Fat~ 37
Carbs~ 94
Protein~ 110

I was confused, too!

I can't believe you had shrimp and broccoli yesterday, too! We should have all gotten together! :-)

I could (and probably do most of the time) eat shrimp and broccoli every day. I don't know why, it's just so good.

I like it with baby bella mushrooms too. Mmmm...

Now I have to thaw more shrimp soup for dinner!

Here it goes for me so far for Wednesday, doing liquid for 3 days:
Protein Shake - AM   205 cal.   26 pro.
Pro.      Shake - PM   205 cal.   26 pro.
2 bananas                 200 cal.      2 pro.
sm. yogurt                    90 cal.      5 pro.
tom. soup                  150 cal.      5 pro.
tom. soup                  150 cal.      5 pro.

Total Cal.  1000   Total Protein 69

I think that looks okay.
