Friday! Did you have a good food week?
I'm mostly satisfied with my food intake this whole week, next week will be that and even better with the new gym membership. My wife and 2 sister-in-laws are on here and we are determined to succeed as a team, holding each other accountable for the daily blogs. We are weighing in here each Saturday to see our progress so tomorrow is the day! I think this first real week was a good learning week for everyone and next week will probably have greater results. Anyway, I hope everyone will have good results that they can be proud of.
Breakfast:
- Frozen Jimmy Dean Breakfast Sandwich 290 cal.
- Yoplait Light Blueberry Yogurt 100 cal.
Lunch: Had a busy work day so only got an apple in. 77 cal.
Dinner:
My parents and grandma invited my wife and I to join them for Chinese food and so we turned a scary situation into a good one by calling the restaurant in advance to learn what menu items are not secretly cooked in oils etc.. So we stuck to our plan. We found out that their Fragrant Shrimp dish (containing 11 shrimp and a heap of broccoli, carrots, mushrooms, sugar snap peas, water chestnuts, and baby corn) is all steamed! So we ordered one of those with the ginger white wine sauce on the side and shared it. What I ate most likely amounted to:
- 1 cup of hot & sour soup (90 cal)
- 6 shrimp (33 cal)
- 2 cups of mixed veggies (200 cal)
- 1/2 cup white rice (100 cal)
- 1 fortune cookie (30 cal)
- Add 50 cal to cover a couple bites of what my parents were having + a couple drops of sauce (seriously like a dab of the ginger white wine sauce).
This totaled: 503 cal.
Snack: Big bowl of Crispix (300 cal) + honey (60 cal) + half banana (50 cal)
Dessert: 1 Fat Free Fudgsicle (60 cal) tbsp of fat free whip on top (10 cal)
Water: 64oz
Vitamin: 1 Mens Multi, 6 Maca Capsules
Exercise: Had an hour orientation at the gym today, so the real workout routine will begin Saturday morning.
