Breakfast (730AM): Spinach Ricotta Crepe (310cal), the crepes were really spinachy and not very ricotta-y, so I added 60 cal of avocado (instead of cheese)
Snack (1000AM) Popchips (100cal)
Snack (1215PM): Medium Banana (100cal)
Snack (1215PM): Medium Banana (100cal)
Lunch (145PM): Steakhouse Wrap (405cal) with half a tomato, green onion, and a TBS of FatFree Greek Yogurt. I still like this a lot. Tortilla, cheese, groundbeef, and rice... it's a yummy burrito - no matter what they call it by. See Day 3 or Day 28 pics for nutrition and to see a variety of ways to style the presentation of this meal! I think it's looking better now. :D (I purposely dissected the burrito open in pic below, easier to eat.)
Dinner(530pm) Beef Bourgouaollouaise... something french... (380cal) Um, parts of this were really good and parts were really not. I really liked the beef and the mushrooms. The onions and califlower puree were okay. The "sauce" had a veeery strange consistency. At first, I thought I'd bit into a piece of partially rendered lard. Not okay with me. I hate how sometimes the sauces in these meals don't melt - makes me wonder what they are made with??? The sauce was much better when mixed into the cauliflower puree and it improved the consistency of the puree. Overall, a decent meal, but lacking in veggies for me. I added a 1/4cup of frozen peas (all that was left in the bag = 25cal.)
Snack (715PM): 2cups spring greens, 15 cal of apple, celery, 30 cal avocado, 1.5tsp balsamic vinegar, 3 almonds (15cal), green onion. I bought some amazing blackberry balsamic vinegar today - makes a great salad dressing. http://tiny.cc/eikcl I've always liked blasamic vinegar without the oil best and this one is soo good! (60cal)
Snack (900PM) I've been craving sweet/chocolate. I bought some 110cal pudding cups and also some mini little drumsticks @ 135cal each. I had a Chocolate Fudge Brownie Lil' Drum tonight. It was really good. I think I'd rather have a few bites of really good than a bowlful of iffy fat free...
Daily Total: 1575cal, goal was 1500.
I am on Bistro MD as well. I really enjoy reading your posts. The Beef Bourg was my least favorite meal until I had the slimey Shrimp and Chicken Gumbo. One of the worst meals I've ever tasted. Everything else has been pretty good though. Keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteFortunately, I will never know the disappointment of the Gumbo because I have declined the all the shrimp meals! Thanks for the feedback -- it's motivating to know that somebody is reading the blog. Helps keep me on track! Good thought to you for lb-loses!
