Yes, I really did try to log in to my laptop with the password 'turkey'. And yes, that is no where close to my password.
I also have the word 'soup' written on my hand and I don't remember why...
I know one thing very very well about myself and that is that my hunger comes in 4 hour increments. I want to eat the sea every four hours or everyone dies. It explains why I usually eat a very heavy breakfast and did a lighter everything else. Well..most the time. Obviously I have to lose weight for a reason. I love food. So I need to use this knowledge to my advantage and plan to have something low calorie on hand to hold me over. I was thinking celery but... I think I need to put more research into it. I am trying to eat smart by avoiding what I consider to be obvious trouble makers, you know... the C.R.A.P.
Finding stuff to drink that isn't bland and that doesn't steal calories from my food is the challenge for me right now. I used to drink Coke Zero every single day and am now mostly drinking water and iced coffee. I have some blueberry tea so I am going to make that into iced tea... That should be good. Anyways, let us get on with it.
BREAKFAST - 340 Calories
I did it again, because it is low in calories, delicious, fast and satisfying.
LUNCH - 311 Calories
My boss wanted to order lunch so I used Postmates (Use code IEWVP for $10 off your first order!) to order from a place called True Food Kitchen. I ordered the Inside Out Quinoa Burger. It came with a kale side salad and sweet potatoes but I threw out the sweet potatoes. (No one wanted them... I did feel bad but I didn't want to eat them either.) I ordered the Kale-Aid as well since it was only 58 calories (woot!). It tastes like earth... Some people hate it and some people just want something that isn't water. (ME)
DINNER - 424 Calories
For dinner I steamed broccolette, baby bella mushrooms and asparagus. I pan fried (with water) salmon and seasoned everything with salt, pepper, and garlic and added half of an avocado on the side. This was really tasty, easy and fast to make and very filling. I will definitely make it again. I had 3 days of fish because I bought a hunk of it and cut it into small portions... I am done with salmon for a few days. I bought some ground turkey so that will be next on the menu.
I feel a lot better this evening. I'm excited to go to the Farmer's Market on Sunday with Miss Bren! I am hoping to get some great fresh veggies and low sugar fruit. I went to the market this evening and bought egg whites and chard. I might make some kind of breakfast bowl for tomorrow...we shall see.
So that's all for tonight. I'm hoping that by logging this a little earlier I will feel less inclined to eat anything else. I have ony had 1,075 calories today so I have 424 left if I do get hungry. But I've got to tell ya, I still feel pretty full from that dinner! I may take a leaf out of Brendas book and just brush my teeth when I start feeling hungry again. Then I will drink some water and park my arse in bed. lol
Till tomorrow, my friends! This evening I will leave you with my favorite song of the day:
Lol! I'm telling you, brushing your teeth and mouth wash kills taste buds for a while, and if not, the idea of brushing them is enough if you're lazy like me :D Teas are a great filler when you're craving too, I have so many different flavors just for that purpose ;)
ReplyDeleteI went a little crazy last time I went to Point Loma Tea... I have all kinds of yummy tea!! I also like to do flavored water which I have a fancy bottle for that I have yet to use! Which reminds me...I need to buy some mint.
ReplyDeleteYay!!!!! Proud of you
