    Meal 1: went out to brunch and got
    *veggie omelette (eggs, cheese, carrots, zucchini, and broccoli, added black pepper and hot sauce). Those vegetables seem like weird additions to an omelette but it was actually really good.
    *home fries with peppers and onions, added black pepper to it
    *two slices of white toast with butter. I ordered whole-wheat toast but they gave me white by mistake and I avoid wasting food.
    *unsweetened iced tea with lemon

    Snack 1: while doing work at Starbucks
    *unsweetened iced green tea
    *Bare banana, pineapple, and strawberry baked fruit chips. One of the few things at Starbucks that doesn't have refined sugar or white flour, and of course they charge an arm and a leg for it.
    *half of a Spindrift raspberry lime seltzer. My husband had the other half.

    Snack 2: at home
    *chia pudding (chia seeds, cocoa powder, unsweetened soymilk)

    Dinner:
    *whole-wheat pita with black bean hummus and tomato
    *red lentil rotini with broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, spinach, black pepper, and paprika
    *vitamin D3 supplement

    Overall: had white flour by mistake, had about 3g of refined sugar (in hummus and pita) plus the toast probably had a couple of grams too, had to estimate macros due to eating out but my estimate was 107g protein (yay!)

    Today was sort of a fail. I have insomnia and I couldn't sleep at all last night, and only got a 2.5 hour nap. I think the cocoa powder in the chia pudding yesterday plus all the tea I drank did it, even though that was hours before my bedtime. AND I had a lot of stuff to do today (finishing work in advance of weekly meeting and doing the laundry and grocery shopping) and was out most of the day, so, I was a zombie. Food was limited to what was around and calorie-dense and required little to no preparation and didn't gross me out (not sleeping gives me nausea). So, avoiding white flour and sugar were a total fail...back on the horse tomorrow. At least I avoided caffeine though.

    Breakfast: (aka "meal eaten after giving up on sleep and going for a long walk in the freezing cold to wake up"):
    *ONE birthday cake protein bar
    *16oz unsweetened soymilk
    *8 Wasa rye/flax/oat/sesame crispbreads
    *1/4 cup raisins

    Lunch (my husband wanted to do work at Panera today...Panera annoys me because all their plant-based options are very low in calories and/or expensive):
    *Pick Two with grilled cheese and tomato soup with croutons, apple on the side
    *32oz plum ginger hibiscus unsweetened iced herbal tea (at least Panera has unsweetened herbal iced tea which most places don't)
    *brownie (which was way too sweet...I was just trying to increase my calorie count since I wouldn't get to eat again for several more hours)

    Dinner (which I'm just eating now at 1AM...because I didn't have time to do it before):
    *Amy's Organic black bean, quinoa, butternut squash, and chard bowl
    *Amy's Organic non-dairy bean and rice burrito
    *8oz of unsweetened cashew milk (I haven't had it in a while and cashew milk is damn good...so much better than the overrated almond milk)
    *5mg melatonin
    *vitamin D supplement

    At least I got 87g of protein which is close to my protein goal...time to put away the laundry....

    Breakfast: I had a really bad headache this morning, so it was just a bowl of Lower Sugar Apple and Cinnamon oatmeal with sliced banana on top. Thankfully my coffee saved me <3

    Lunch: Fish Cake on a light bun with cheese and tartar sauce. Fries.

    Dinner: I'll probably grab a turkey sub from Subway as I'm at work tonight and didn't meal prep anything. I do a six inch turkey, lettuce, green peppers, banana peppers, cucumber, and a drizzle of light mayo. Probably baked chips as a side.

    Snack: Not sure. Maybe a Yasso bar when I get home.

    Breakfast: French bread toast with peanut butter, cara cara orange, iced moka.

    Lunch: salmon salad on saltines, crudites (baby carrots, tomato slices, yellow pepper, broccoli) with ranch dip.

    Dinner: Instant Pot "roast" chicken, rice, pan gravy, green beans, yellow squash.

    I'm going to try not to snack today -- I tore my Achilles tendon last week, so my activity is seriously reduced. (And it's not like I was a triathlete before, LOL.) I won't beat myself up if I end up grabbing an apple or some cheese, but the plan is not to snack. I'm also having slightly smaller, lighter meals.
