    So far breakfast was a Nature Valley Protien granola bar, and two large mugs of coffee. First lunch was a low carb wrap with 80g turkey breast and a slice of peper jack cheese, ate early because my usually breakfast was not enough today. Second lunch was a quesadilla made with a low carb wrap, 60 grams of left over pork chop, and 28 grams of shredded cheese ( tasted way better than I thought it would, usually the wraps make terrible quesadillas) and left over coffee chilled with a splash of milk. Dinner will probably be frozen pizza. And I have enough calories left over for a nice snack or adult beverage after I put the kids to bed

    Meatless Monday today. I have a ton of veggies in the fridge so I'll probably make tofu stir-fry for dinner and serve it up with some whole wheat pasta and some cheese.

    @kpk54 - I'll probably make some tweaks to it just because I'm feeling lazy and don't feel like going to the local over-priced, small town grocery store after I get done working as I discovered that I don't have crushed tomatoes in the pantry (have every other type of canned tomato product) and I forgot to buy a jalapeno. Since I'm cutting the recipe by a third, I'll probably sub in a can of rotel for the crushed tomatoes and add a can of hatch green chiles for more spice. Hopefully it turns out as good as it sounds!

    Your supper of chicken piccata reminds me that I haven't made that in a long time and I have several lemons and a large jar of capers on hand (thanks to the Costco run this weekend).

    Cardio and weights right after work so dinner afterward will be Honey Bunches of Oats (need my iron fix) with unsweetened Almond Milk, and a tomato sandwich (Arnold's Sandwich Thin with light mayo). 100 cal bag of kettle corn later for a snack with 16 oz. of Tropicana 50 OJ.

    For breakfast I had an egg and 3 egg whites scrambled over 85 grams of pinto beans and topped with green Hatch Green Chile.

    Lunch is just a hodgepodge of leftover food from the weekend...some cod, chiptole slaw, bean sprouts, half an avocado, and a little honeydew, cucumber, dill, and feta salad. I threw the fish in with the slaw and bean sprouts and made an interesting cold salad...I pretty much always have 1/2 an avocado and the honeydew salad is something I made for our cook out Saturday night and it's awesome.

    Dinner tonight is salmon fillets with sour cream and chive baked potato and broccoli.
