After we got home I made breakfast: 2 eggs with salsa and a slice of tomato, half a graperfuit, a cup of steel cut oats with cinnamon and vanilla, 2 sliced of bacon, and diet pepsi. If I weren't doing this, that would have been 3 slices of bacon.
After that I did the week's food prep while hub mowed the grass. I picked the rest of the rotisserie chicken. If I weren't doing this, I would have simply made it into chicken salad and snacked on it over the next few days. Today I weighed the chicken, figured up the calories of the batch, weighed it and calculated calories per ounce (43) and when I do eat some I will weigh it so I know the calories. (I added celery and onion so by weight it now has fewer calories per ounce than just the chicken.)
Sometimes I was eating hunealthy things, but a lot of it was that I had gotten a little too fast & loose with guestimating what I was eating. So this have been very helpful to me!
After we finished our work, we ran a couple of errnads and went out to lunch.
This is a picture of the shawarm platter I shared with my husband (the diet coke is his). I ate just under half the shawarma, 2 smal bites of the hummus, and half the salads - chopped cuke and tomato, eggplant, onion relish, red cabbage, and a shredded green cabbage. The platter comes with 2 fresh pitas, we did get one, which my husband ate. I had a bottle of water.
Taking care of a few things at the house and then we are off to the gym.
