Hello again! Anyone up for another round?

Breakfast: I had a handful of potato chips and two Lindor truffles at 4AM (stupid PMS), but then rallied and ate some carrots, tomatoes, ham, and cheese (admittedly, with ranch dip) before work -- and, of course, coffee.

Lunch: will be leftover Italian sausage with Dijon-champagne mustard and a quick green salad.

Dinner: is going to be Spanish chickpeas and rice with artichoke hearts and spinach, which I meant to make last night but was too tired to futz with.

Snacks: I might have an apple between lunch and dinner, and if I want a bedtime snack I'm going to try to go for popcorn instead of chips... but I make no promises.

I am not making what you might call the best choices today, but I'm here and I'm trying. How's everyone else doing today?

    Breakfast - Egg sandwich that consisted of 1 scrambled egg, some cheese, Canadian Bacon and an Everthing Bagel Thin (next week, I need to reconsider the Canadian Bacon - I'm sorry Canada, but your bacon is tasteless...LOL). Fresh Blackberries, and of course, black coffee

    Snack: A huge Jonagold apple from a local orchard. The Melroses are better :)

    Lunch: Leftovers from dinner out on Monday (yes, sadly, 1 meal feeds me for 3 days). Spicy Pork Hot Stone Bowl (delicious!). And pickles - Extra Hot Garlic...sooo good.

    Snack: Protein bar. Luna Mint Chocolate Chip. I've been told they have too much sugar, but I like them.

    Dinner: Either Chicken Tacos or Chicken Fajitas. I have left over chicken breast that needs eaten that I cooked in the crock pot on Saturday. And probably a BrewDog Elvis Juice.

    Nightly snack: Instant Grits and 1tsp sugar. I'm obsessed with this and eat it every night.

    Should be around 1600 calories. The most I've eaten in in one day for quite a long time. GO ME! No, really, after coming off 1200 and getting really used to it, it's been hard to increase my calories. I'm working on it though...

    Lunch: 1/4 of a mini seedless watermelon

    No snacks planned but thinking about making applesauce.

    Breakfast: Nothing!

    Lunch: went out for lunch with friends to a Thai restaurant. Had General Thai chicken, Tom Yum soup, steamed broccoli, a spring roll and a bit of rice. Estimating around 700-800 cals.

    Dinner: Probably something on the lighter side. I have some leftover ham, swiss and caramelized onion quiche. So I will have a slice of that. And some steamed broccoli.

    :)

    Breakfast: Nothing. Not a big b-fast eater, plus I woke up late :#

    Lunch: A serving of Birds Eye Tuscan Protein Blend with 3 oz of Rotisserie Chicken

    Snack: Medium Iced Coffee from Dunkin Donuts with Maple Pecan flavor - tastes just like those candied nuts you get at fairs/carnivals. SO GOOD!

    Dinner: Making Turkey Enchilada Stuffed Poblanos via Skinnytaste. Probably with a side of refried beans/riced cauliflower

    Dessert: Some of my Sister's homemade applesauce!

    Ps. Love this thread. First time posting on it, but I love getting (*stealing*) ideas from everyone else >:)o:)

    Breakfast was my smoothie (Kale 60 g Kefir 4 oz Hulled Hemp 1 oz Blackberries 1 oz, Peanut powder 30 g frozen banana 125 g and ice, 9 oz.) To which I added 12 g LivFit Superfood Blend and 3g creatine.

    Lunch is spread out through the workday. I have already had 14 g of Omega-3 Trail Mix, 62 g of bread spread with 35 g banana and a vegan protein shake. In another hour I'll have a dried apricot for about 5 g.

    Dinner is leftover from Sunday spaghetti squash with ground beef and spaghetti sauce. After that I'll have a 'snack' of 100-200 g papaya.

    Breakfast: I really wanted to just share this meal with you all. I made something that I would normally call a "smoothie": milk, frozen strawberries, protein powder if you want, etc. But I added 1 tsp of vegetable oil, which sounds weird, but I read that it gives drinks a "milkshake" texture....and it was so good!! Totally worth the extra calories.

    Lunch: lentils & brown rice cooked with taco seasoning, and a blueberry fig bar

    Dinner: IDK yet. Some mix and match items to clean out the fridge.

    Breakfast: mug omelette with 2 medium eggs/1/3 cup of egg whites, chopped mushroom, grape tomato, parsley, green onion, and reduced fat shredded cheddar. Chocolate Premier Protein shake dumped into 2 shots of Dunkin' Donuts espresso on ice in a large cup.

    Snack 1: Trail mix of 1/2 oz raw almonds, 1/2 oz raw pecan pieces, 1 TBSP of raisins

    Lunch: "Sardicado" toasts. 1 can of sardines in EVOO and lemon juice flaked and mixed with 1 tub of Wholly guacamole and Tabasco sauce, spread over two pieces of whole wheat toast and topped with a slice of tomato each.

    Snack 2: skipped. A patient brought me donuts today and I totally did the BLT thing a little (bite, lick, taste) rather than eat a whole or even a half donut. I just wanted a widdle bit. Didn't even log. #sorrynotsorry

    Dinner: will totally be Wendy's. I'm craving a burger. The Jr. burgers are really not that bad on calories! And a value fry to boot.

    Dessert: Halo Top, always and forever.
