I had a lazy exercise day today! Only went for a 45 minute walk, nothing too strenuous.
Food was delicious today!
1 cup iced coffee with 1/2 cup soy milk
2 slices walnut scallion bread with 2 T. sun dried tomato bruchetta and 1/4 an avocado
1 peach and 1 nectarine
2/3 cup soy yogurt with 1/2 cup frozen blueberries and 1 T. ground flax blended in
1 cup steamed kale, 1 cup steamed green beans, 1/3 cup green peas, 1/2 cup chickpeas, 1/4 cup caramelized onions and shallots with 1 tsp. extra virgin coconut oil with nutritional yeast and spices
2 pieces kalamata olive bread with 1 T. Earth Balance margarine
3 oz. seitan with 1 cup steamed kale, 3 cloves roasted garlic and spices
1 sliced tomato and 1/2 a cucumber with fresh basil leaves and a splash of balsamic vinegar
B - (this is going to be weird, I know) - Huge salad with 4 egg whites (fried and chopped up), low fat feta, 1/4 sliced avocado, 4 kalamata olives, Newman's Own Lt. Balsamic
S - 1/2 cup plain yogurt, with 1/2 cup really good fresh pineapple
S/L - 2 cups homemade roasted carrot ginger soup
D - Southern style veggie dinner at my folks' house--- 1 biscuit, about 1 1/2 c. pinto beans, several thick slices tomatoes from my Dad's garden, sliced vidalia onion, Texas Pete.
Dessert - I more biscuit - about 1 t. butter, about 1 t. local honey
I haven't entered any of that in fitday yet, but I'm getting ready to. The biscuits by the way are very small and homemade by my dad. They aren't too bad really.
Exercise - 40 min pilates dvd (level 2 stott's)
1 hour bike ride - somewhat hilly and pushing pretty hard whole ride.
snack - 1 piece rye bread with vegemite spread, half a dozen dorito corn chips with tomato salsa and a few M&M's (I know!) - sweet chilli cream cheese with water crackers (again, I know!)
Dinner - Pasta with chicken sausage, tomato and kidney bean sauce with shaved parmesan and red wine
It wasn't a typical day food wise - obviously lol.
B: 3 slices bacon; 1 pumpkin oat-bran muffin (homemade); 1/2 tbsp Meyer Lemon marmalade; 1/2 tbsp FF cream cheese; 1/4 cup FF cottage cheese with 1/2 cup FF Greek yogurt, splenda, and cinnamon; 1 bite of marionberry pie, two cups decaf coffee with FF half and half and SF Torani
S: Apricot and Almond Piskota (it's a Hungarian cake-like dessert made mostly from eggs), cream cheese-lemon sauce, decaf tea with FF half and half and SF Torani
It all comes in at about 1400 calories.
For exercise, I swam 3,000 meters, which took about an hour and a half (I'm slow). Combination of moderate pace, intervals, and kicking drills.
Oh man! Ever since I have been more careful about what I eat, I have been seriously craving anything peanut butter... peanut butter, peanut butter ice cream, reeses peanut butter cups... problem is before this, I never thought twice about peanut butter. At times, I didn't even like the stuff. Anyone else have something like this happen?
