Breakfast - protein bar in the car. I had to bring my dad to the doctor for 7AM this morning. From there, I went down to All-State Band auditions in Edison at JP Stevens High School - otherwise known as 1/3 of the All-State Band school. :-) Great program they have there. Anyway, I had the protein bar because I had to leave the house at 6:20 and I was not waking up any earlier than I needed to. (190)
Snack - 1/2 bagel with "I Can't Believe it's Not Butter" (135 bagel, 60 butter) This was tough because I show up to the All-State Band auditions and they had a spread of donuts and bagels soooooo big. It was everything Im' trying to stay away from. In my mind, pretty amazing that I made out with just 1/2 a bagel in the end. Proof that I really am working hard at this!
Lunch - 1 slice of cold pizza and a chocolate cookie from Costco. Pizza was VERY small and I didn't eat the crust. (250) Cookie - (210)
So I get to lunch and they have a WALL of subs. Had to be 75 feet of subs. Tuna, Roast Beef, Italian, Tuna, Turkey, you name it. NOw I'm not really into that because I hate tomato and mayo and not really a fan of the shredded lettuce. I just like the meat and the bread. But I reluctantly take a turkey sandwich because it was my only real option. I figured I'd at least peel off some meat and eat it. So I get to the end of the sandwich gauntlet and there is 1 pizza box. I stop and ask "Is there pizza in that box?" They say yes. It was like the heavens opened up. "So you mean I can trade in this sandwich for 1 slice of that pizza?" they tried to give me the pizza AND the sandwich, AND macaroni salad and lots and lots of food. Luckily for me, I didn't like any of it anyway, so I just took the small slice of pizza. Turns out it was ice cold and hard. I still ate it. I didn't eat the crust at all, no need. It was like a bad cracker. But in the end, I needed lunch and it was MUCH better than the sandwich for my mind. Don't like 'dem samiches. I had a cookie for good measure. Needed something to fill the ol' belly. :-)
Snack - I can't remember. Thought I had something . . . . . . . Maybe I didn't. I did drink a lot of water, so maybe that was it.
Dinner - Cilantro Lime Shrimp with Quinoa (180 + 160) Quinoa + Shrimp - another good home cooked healthy meal. This one is legitimately healthy. Not just "better than other stuff." It was healthy healthy healthy. Also had a few shredded carrots in there and a little diet orange soda.
Snacks - Snacked a lot tonight. It was a little hard to stay away. I was basically home from 3pm until we went to bed at 1:15am, so it you look at it that way, it doesn't sound as bad. Healthy Choice organic fudge bar (110) + Frozen Grapes (50) + 1 cracker/peanut butter (35) + Cheddar Rice Cakes (140)
