I feel like these come around so fast! It's the end-of-year speed-up, I think.

Breakfast: An odd assortment of coffee, homemade garlic-cheddar bread (with yogurt butter), and a key lime Greek yogurt.

Lunch: I'm thinking leftover cheese pizza and Caesar salad from last night.

Dinner: Will be leftover brisket with caramelized onions, fresh roasted Brussels sprouts, and maybe rice. I'm also definitely going to have some wine before/during dinner.

Snacks: Popcorn before bed, probably. Maybe a couple of clementines or some cherry tomatoes.

How's everyone else doing on this beautiful (where I am, anyway) fall Wednesday?

    I’m off work, and didn’t go to the gym, so it’s low cal volume day (except wine)

    Breakfast: 1/4 cup oats, coffee and creamer

    Lunch: an acorn squash steamed, and a steamed artichoke.

    Snack: wine :)

    Dinner: prolly a bag of steamed snap peas, and some avocado mashed w broccoli slaw. Some tuna if I want it. I do higher protein on my work days, when I eat smaller higher calorie foods.

    Breakfast: String cheese and a Trader Joe's "Just a handful of nuts" package
    Lunch: We had a monthly team lunch at chick fil a. I got a cobb salad and didn't add the toppings and was super light on the dressing (fat free honey mustard), and had 3 of the "nuggets for the table" my boss brought over
    Dinner: tonight I'm planning chicken wrapped in proscuitto in white wine sauce and a "caprese salad" (I'm going to cut up cherry tomatoes and sprinkle some mozarella and vinegar on them)

    The lunch was heavy but it's still looking like a 1500 calorie day (slightly over my goal of 1350, but still in a deficit)!
