Thought I'd start up a new weekly thread while I'm sitting here planning out tomorrow.
I've been way too snacky this weekend, so I'm going to try to stick to just what's planned tomorrow.
B: 2 low-fat frozen waffles; homemade raspberry-mango syrup, hardboiled egg
L: 4oz. tuna w/ 1 tsp mayo, 1/2 apple, and scallions served over spinach; cup of chicken-noodle soup
S: 1/2 grapefruit, a graham cracker w/pb, rye crackers w/ laughing cow
D: shrimp and asparagus on angel hair pasta
S: popcicle
Thats funny, i was actually just writing one of these out..well it was more like a template of what my daily eatting should look like. I see that you put your snacks after lunch and after dinner. How does that usually work out for you? I put my after breakfast and after lunch. I really need to go grocery shopping so i dont really have anything to eat at the moment.
Moni, I put all my snacks there because I have about 8 hours between lunch and dinner today due to my schedule. On days when I have a more normal meal time schedule, I will do a mid-morning and a mid-afternoon snack. Today, however, I need them more in the afternoon than in the morning!
Feel free to post your meal plan here if you'd like some accountability or if it just helps you stick with it when it's written.
Breakfast: 1 whole grain bagel with 1 tablespoon cream cheese (fat free), 2 slices of tomato as topping. (2 starches, 1 condinment, 1 veggie)
Mid-Morning snack: 1 whole banana (it's a pretty big banana!) 2 fruit
Lunch: Leftover bruschetta chicken, with an orange and rasins, and some wheat thins if I'm still snacky (2 protein, 2 starches, 2 fruit and maybe 1 more starch)
Mid-afternoon snack: Probably some yogurt, and if I haven't eaten the wheat thins, those too. (1 diary, 1 fruit, and possible 1 starch)
Dinner: Probably one of those Southern Beach frozen dinner since I don't get home till after 9pm my time (Lab from 6:30 to 9:15!), and I'll be too tired to even think about anything OTHER than fast and easy dinner.
For those who are curious....I'm NOT on the South Beach diet, I'm on L.A. Weight Loss program. Just the South Beach is similar to LAWL I guess. =) (and it suprisingly tastes good!)
B - bad...bad...bad...catered breakfast at work - 1 biscuit w/ gravy, 2 pc bacon and a hash brown
L - homemade veggie soup
S - yogurt
D - taco bake w/ lettuce, tomato, green pepper, ff sour cream, salsa
Here's what I have going on today, as far as food.
Breakfast: (I overslept, so I only grabbed a banana and water, and packed my lunch very fast) Banana, water, LA Lite.
Midmorning snack: I might just skip the snack and have lunch earlier....since I only ate a little over an hour ago.
Lunch: Bruschetta chicken leftovers (yes, LOTS of leftovers, goodness!), some yogurt, Wheat Thins (100 calorie pack), and diet pepsi (can).
Snack: LA Lite bar, and most likely more fruit, perhaps a salad when I get home.
Dinner: THis is still up in the air! I really need to get more protein and veggies in today, so I'm thinking I'll probably use frozen dinner again, since I need to print pictures in lab today and will be too tired to cook!
Monday wasn't so hot. I've been busy as a bee with all this painting.
B: Slim-Fast high protein bar (was not hungry)
S: Um, I forget :P
L: Lean Cuisine teriyaki rice w/veggies bowl (yummmm)
S: a pear
D: BBQ grilled chicken breast, a side of stir-fry veggies and 1 sourdough roll (100 calories and soooo worth it)
S: 100 calorie snack pack
Tuesday:
B: Protein shake and oatmeal
S: bowl of grapes
L: I'm thinking of making tofu stir-fry. I'm a tofu virgin.
