I decided not to get on the scale Mon & Tue b/c I just knew I had gained weight due to eating out every meal this past weekend. If it weren't for the calories from breakfast at Waffle House to dinner of Chicken and dumplings at Cracker Barrel - I thought for sure I'd gain from the sodium levels alone! I told myself 219 would be just fine - great news is I was 217.5 - Halelujiah!!!! Same place I left off on Friday! Woohoo!
Today was day 2 of the Kashi meals I got on sale this week. Today I had Chicken Florentine - 22g protien and 290 calories - YUM - MAY! Really good flavor and filling! I give that one 4.5 stars (out of 5). It had a great garlic taste and melted cheese on top. Really good!
Breakfast: Sbux with 1 splenda, 4T half and half and cinnamon (did you all know one teaspoon of cinnamon has as much antioxidants as a cup of blueberries?)
Greek yogurt - 14g protien
Lunch: Kashi - Chicken Florentine 22g protein, 1 bottle water (with propel antioxidants added)
Dinner: flank steak with red/yellow/orange peppers and onions sauteed.
The protein is definitely helping with my energy issues! Now I need to work on the lack of water.
I've rescheduled my fill for later this week so I can get myself down to eating no more than a cup full at a time. I hope I'm making the right decision about that. I just don't know any other way to get things moving on the scale
It's interesting that the protein helps with energy.. maybe I need to take more note because I feel good and yet I think maybe I need a little more. Maybe I don't.. maybe I am getting enough.. oh the puzzlement lol
ReplyDeleteThe food you posted looks great. I'm on the lookout for some quick and easy type meals.. might have to hunt this one down.
Have a great day!!!
