Most days, I plan out my meals the night before to check calories, protein, etc, and I'm genuinely excited about the foods I'm eating today
Breakfast: French Toast with cinnamon cream cheese and hot blueberries (made with sprouted cinnamon raisin bread, reddiegg sub, lots of cinnamon)
Snack: Giant piece of faux pizza (Spaghetti squash "crust," marinara, tons of red onion, green pepper, mushrooms, olives, fresh jalapenos, mozzarella, and parm)
Lunch: Louisiana style red beans with chicken andouille sausage (beans simmered with onions, green pepper, diced carrots, and diced tomatoes)
Snack: Fruited chicken salad with spinach and 2 Ak Mak crackers (made with a yogurt/mayo mix, apples, grapes, green onion, and a touch of curry powder)
Dinner: Fresh steamed snow crab, roasted cauliflower with curry powder, and a small orange
Dessert: "Tapioca" pudding (no tapioca, just made with chia seeds)
All of my serving sizes are substantial, and my totals for the day are:
Cals: 1510
Protein: 124g
Fat: 43.1g
Carbs: 191g
Fiber: 59.1g !!! (beans, spinach, cauliflower, chia, oh my!)
Anyone else have food planned for the day that they're excited about?
and, on a slight tangent, why does the food on weight loss shows always look soooooo boring? I eat like this most of the time (although this is a higher calorie day for me - usually breakfast is faster to prepare and my snacks are simpler, a piece of fruit or carrots with eggplant hummus)... why is it always a grilled chicken breast and steamed broccoli or steamed fish with green beans???
