Would all of you be so kind to write a typical day's menu of food that you eat. I know there are diaries, but I'd like to see all in one post. Would you be willing? Thank you so much!

    Breakfast --> Smoothie ( I add Protein powder) & a black coffee
    Lunch --> Salad, mixed greens, avacado, black beans, feta and salsa as dressing
    Snack --> 1cup fresh fruit
    Dinner --> Meat and Veg (usually chicken with something steamed or raw)

    If I need a sweet fix I will eat 1 square of 85% chocolate.

    normal breafast: greek yogurt,banana, some kind of other fruit what ever was on sale that week,thin bagel with either spray butter or laughing cow cheese spread. lunch if I am working is a Cliff Bar Dinners are a full cooked fresh meal, I hit the web site that I like to get reciepes from on Thursday nights and make a grocery list of things I don't already have in stock for Friday's shopping trip. I like to use www.skinnytaste.com.www.myrecipes.com,www.eatingwell.com www.Pinterest.com has tons of great ideas also. for example tonight dinner is going to be Totally Fresh Tomato Lasagna with fresh garden tomaotes,fresh mozzarella,and homemade bechamel sauce. you can do this!! it just takes a little planning ahead.
