    I am definitely going to be coming to this thread for ideas! I can see a lot of meat however I will try to substitute it with beans/tofu etc. Also I really want to give veganism a try, but I know eggs have so much protein uhh. Dilemma :)

    You either ethically believe it's okay to eat animals, or you don't. Shouldn't really be a dilemma in my opinion since that is the only real reason to go Vegan.

    Um the dilemma about eating animals is out of the question for me. The dilemma I have is, is it ethically okay to eat even the free range eggs out there :) Plus, I need to take into consideration health as well as ethics

    B- applesauce with 1/2 tsp matcha powder (makes it green, but I can't taste the matcha) (I'm a late riser)

    L- 3.7 oz baked chicken thigh on a foldit flat bread with 1 tsp lite mayo); 1 cup campbell's tomato soup; 5 FF saltines

    Cocktail - 2 oz Bourbon with lemon and water

    D- 2 oz (dry) Ronzoni Pasta, Turkey/Quinoa meatballs and 2/3 cups simple tomato sauce* with 1 Tbsp Parmesan cheese, 2 cups steamed broccoli florets.

    I still have 133 cal left, so for an evening snack I'll have a Fiber One bar, or a 100 cal bag of Kettlecorn.

    *Simple sauce and meatball recipes constructed in the recipe builder for accurate serving/calorie numbers.

    Your menu is sad. :( If your BMR is truly 800-900 (according to whatever device you're using), you need to see a doctor about a possible metabolic disorder. Seriously. 1200 is the absolute least a woman should eat, and even that's way too low.

    Breakfast: Green Mango Pineapple Banana Protein Smoothie, Special K Protein cereal (dry), and coffee with creamer and Splenda
    Lunch: Chunk light tuna, 1 T plain nonfat Greek yogurt, Wheat Thin Garden Valley Veggie Toasted Chips, fresh watermelon
    Snack: hard-boiled egg, light string cheese, Apple Pie Greek Yogurt cup
    Dinner: Chili with Ritz crackers mixed in
    Dessert: 2 T Natural Peanut butter (right off the spoon, baby)

    I'm much more excited for tomorrow. Today was a cardio day, but lifting days mean a pre-workout Quest bar and a s'more for dessert!


    MMMM I like your menu!

    I had baked pasta for dinner:

    1 box (12 oz dry) Smart Taste penne pasta
    1 can Hunts 4 cheese spaghetti sauce
    15 oz part skim ricotta
    8 oz shredded mozzarella
    1 tube Jennie-O hot turkey sausage
    Parmesan to top (I used about 16g)
    Olive oil cooking spray

    Boiled pasta, browned/crumbled/drained sausage. Mixed pasta + mozzarella + ricotta until well coated. Add in sausage. Spray a 13x9 casserole dish, then pour mixture in. Top with can of sauce & sprinkle parmesan on sauce.

    Bake @ 350 for 20 minutes. "Cut" into 8 bricks. Approx. 440 calories each. I add a little red pepper flakes for added 'kick'.
