Planning for Tuesday, Feb. 6

  • I ate way too little yesterday--under 1000 calories. I had such a headache in the afternoon/evening that all I could think about was napping, so food was not even close to a priority. Usually, sleeping makes my headaches go away, but here it is not even 6am yet, and I'm already in a little pain this morning, so I'm praying it doesn't last aaaalllll day

    Anyway, here's an idea of my food for the day:
    • Kashi cereal w/skim milk
    • an orange
    • pbj sandwich
    • red pepper and tomato soup w/croutons
    • Lean Cuisine bbq chicken pizza
    I really should add something else in there, as this is still just under 1200 calories, but I haven't been grocery shopping (since I traveled this past weekend), so all I really have is frozen meals. I didn't want 2 frozen meals in 1 day because with the above menu, I'm already at about 2800mg sodium, so another frozen meal could add 450-700mg more We'll see how the day goes...
  • Brekky
    egg toast, cheese ripper

    Snack
    20 grapes, choccy 0% greek yoghurt, oats and dried cranberries

    Pre-workout snack
    choccy apple

    Gym - squats, calf raises and running intervals

    Lunch
    huge jacket potato (DH doesn't know they should be the size of your fist!!!! Or maybe he was overestimating his hands! ) with cottage cheese

    Snack
    turkey sarnie possibly avocado

    Kickboxing

    Dinner
    Maybe scrambled eggs since I can never be bothered to cook anything remotely meal-like!
  • Alright, so I discovered there was some leftover chicken from last night's dinner (thought Jeff had eaten the rest), so that means I can give him that for dinner tonight instead of making him cook his frozen pizza. And so, my day has switched around a bit because I think I'm going to try to make a black bean salad type thing for dinner (which Jeff can have as a side with his chicken, but I'll just eat the black beans). I have a can of black beans, a can of petite diced tomatoes, some frozen chopped onion, some crushed garlic...I should be able to create something out of that, right?
  • B-low cal french toast w/ sugar free syrup & 1/2 a kiwi
    S-cheese string
