Week 1
Please post 1 daily food log to comments by the end of this week and let us all know how you are doing with the challenge!
Monday: Breakfast/Brunch: 1/2 apple Omelette with onions and peppers topped with tomato and 1/2 avocado Snack:3 clementines Lunch: 1/2 chicken breast, 1/4 baked sweet potato, 1/2 cup asparagus. Dinner: My turkey Hash: Ground turkey, onions, peppers, carrots with broccoli
Today was rough. Had to help Easton with school work and arrived at training just in time to clock in at 0800. My breakfast was 2 KIND bars only because they were in my bag. Had a chicken salad for lunch (ofcourse the dressing totally follows the diet.) Snacked (or should I call it dinner) on almond butter with celery and carrots with hummus (the legume free kind. ;) A glass of tea. No other fluids. Yikes. Did not realize that time constraints had led me to give up food...and water; I think I figured out why I can't resist sweets and why I've been feeling so awful! Now cutting into my sleep to have premade meals. :(
This is my food log for Wednesday. I worked a 12-hour shift this day, so I am pretty proud of myself for staying on track. The hardest part was when I came home from work and was STARVING and tired and just wanted a quick snack, but I was good and had a hard-boiled egg and part of a sweet potato that I had already cooked up.
Breakfast: 2 hard-boiled eggs, 1 banana Snack: Sugar snap peas, raw Lunch: Leftover chicken breast (about 1 cup chopped), 1/2 sweet potato Dinner: grilled chicken breast w/salad (iceberg lettuce, spinach, dried cranberries, bleu cheese crumbles, sunflower seeds, olives) dressing was olive oil, red wine vinegar and balsamic vinegar Late snack: 1/2 sweet potato, hard-boiled egg Water: I think I did pretty good - hard to keep track, but I had to take more pee breaks than normal!
According to MyfitnessPal I was at 47% carbs, 27% fat, 25% protein, 1558 calories

I like it! I think eggs are going to be my best friend for the next few weeks. I like to hard-boil them, so I can take them with me as a snack.
