Day #14: Breakfast - easy, lunch & dinner - not so easy!
Breakfast: 3 organic eggs scrambled in 1 1/2 tsp organic unsalted butter with 1 cup grapefruit
Snack: None
Lunch/Dinner: 4
ounces grilled chicken breast, 1 cup steamed broccoli, 1 cup field peas, 1 cup mashed potatoes and 1 homemade biscuit. Celebrated a birthday and ate very small piece of vanilla cake with whip cream icing and 1 scoop of vanilla ice cream
Snack: None
Dinner: Ate enough at late lunch...did have about 1/2 cup of chili at Bible Study (meat, beans, peppers and tomatoes)
Workout: Rest
How do I Feel: Well it is almost 2am and I am working..not sure I can really answer for I am getting really tired...alarm will be going off at 6am - not really excited at the moment of only getting 4 hours of sleep and a full day ahead of me. Life of a full-time working mommy!!
Just a thought carrie...Potatoes, even sweet potatoes, are very dense. Sweet potatoes are definitely better than regular potatoes though...anyway, one cup of mashed potatoes is nearly 5 blocks. So Your lunch was very carb heavy with the biscuit, peas, brocColi. And you had no carbs with breakfast. Keeping a balance of protein, carbs, and fat will keep you fuller longer. Easier said than done i know!
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work. It will be worth itin the end!!

Hi Johnny....thanks so much for your input. It is hard to keep every meal balanced and Paleo. I appreciate so much the head's up on the sweet potatoes. I thought they weren't so high in carbs and had that one completely wrong. Will bring my intake of sweet potatoes down to 1/week as a special treat. Thanks again!! Hope all went well at the Games on Saturday - you were looking great with your burpees!!
