I thought I'd update one last time before signing off for the weekend. Today was an active recovery day, so I did about 3 hours of yard work instead of traditional gym work. I have workouts on both Saturday and Sunday and will update on Monday.
We had dinner tonight with friends and had a wonderful meal and a wonderful time. I think sometimes my job can be a little intimidating to others, especially those that invite us over for dinner. We never intended it to be that way...people just assume we eat perfect all the time.
Needless to say, our friends prepared a great meal that was very healthy and I had to remind them that even if they had made fried chicken or pizza we still would have enjoyed the meal with them. One meal out of 42 in a week isn't gonna hurt anybody...
Here's what I ate...
530a- Syntha 6 Protein Shake with FiberOne cereal and 1% milk (not my first choice...but I was in a hurry)
830a (2nd Breakfast)-Eggs, 3 slices turkey bacon, 1/2 avocado, and splash of Frank's red hot sauce mixed together in bowl (10 mins prep time)
1130a-Fork Burgers "hamburger with no bun" (2 turkey burger patties, mustard, avocado, romaine lettuce, drop of catsup, and of course a splash of Frank's Red Hot sauce. (15 min prep time)
300p-Handful of Soy and Flaxseed Chips,Fage 0% greek yogurt, grapes, cranberries
600p-8 oz steak, green beans, red peppers, squash, spinach salad, 1/2 a sweet potato, 1 cup broccoli.
900p-Boar's Head Turkey (5 slices), 1 cup 1% milk and Gala 1 apple
Food, Fitness and the Constant Process of Being Challenged and Being Changed.

ReplyDeleteI'm offended.... you really don't think we eat like that all the time? Haha. But really, we do try to eat like that most of the time. Daniel's really conscious about what he eats.... much better than I am. I don't think I've ever fried anything in my life... oh wait, I have fried fresh sliced jalepenos... with ranch... yum. My rule of thumb is usually protein/1-2 veggies/starch.... and color... I'm all into balance of color. And, it's easier and much simpler to cook healthy... 'unhealthy' food takes much longer to prepare (unless you order pizza :) But, you're right... it is a little stressful when planning the menu when you guys come over. It's natural though.... I'd probably reorganize/redecorate if I had a professional interior designer come over. And, I'd apologize about my color choices and how my furniture doesn't match. My own insecurities :) The next time you guys come over we are having enchiladas... I make some killer three cheese enchiladas!
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha...I know you eat like that all the time! I'll gladly have an off meal for your killer 3 cheese enchiladas someday . You can even fry them if you want to. ; )
