<\/a><\/p>\nDay One<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Breakfast<\/strong>:\u00a0My breakfasts are usually pretty good and I don’t feel the need to change them up too much. What I’m doing has worked for the most part and keeps me full for a long time. Breakfast this day was 2 fried eggs, 1\/2 cup cottage cheese, black coffee with creamer, and an EmergenC drink.\u00a0Calories: 342<\/em><\/p>\n Snack<\/strong>: String Cheese, hot mint tea.\u00a0Calories: 80<\/em><\/p>\n Lunch<\/strong>:\u00a0I wasn’t quite prepared for lunches this week so the first day of the “diet” (i.e. lower calorie days) wasn’t the best. I kind of threw things together at the last minute. Lunch was a Chocolate Whey protein shake, medium sized banana, and sugar snap peas.\u00a0Calories: 256<\/em><\/p>\n Dinner<\/strong>:\u00a0Michael was famished after biking to work and needed a lot more calories than I did.

Dinner was 4 ounces of grilled flank steak on top of a salad with sauteed peppers and onions. I had some guacamole and chips, and topped it with a little sour cream.\u00a0Calories: 790<\/em><\/p>\n Total Calories for the day<\/strong>: 1622. A little higher than I wanted to shoot for but still less than what was my old “norm”.<\/p>\n Calories burned:<\/strong> I did the elliptical at the gym and burned 374 calories.<\/p>\n Day Three<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Breakfast<\/strong>: Trader Joe’s oatmeal with some brown sugar and dried coconut, coffee with creamer, unsweetened iced tea.\u00a0Calories: 308<\/em><\/p>\n Snack<\/strong>:\u00a0Apple.\u00a0Calories: 70<\/em><\/p>\n Lunch<\/strong>:\u00a0Carrot Ginger Soup and a chocolate protein shake.\u00a0Calories: 240<\/em><\/p>\n Snack<\/strong>: Trader Joe’s Cottage cheese.\u00a0Calories: 90<\/em><\/p>\n Dinner<\/strong>: Salad with raw yellow and orange peppers, carrots, 5 ounces of baked chicken breast, Gorgonzola cheese and Buffalo Sauce.\u00a0Calories: 433<\/em><\/p>\n Dessert: Plain Greek yogurt with sliced strawberries, chocolate chips and dried coconut flakes.

I did well until I got home from swimming. I was\u00a0so freaking hungry<\/em> I ended up snacking on some tortilla chips while I was cooking dinner. I ended up going over my calories for the day. I’m disappointed but I’m trying not to let it derail me.<\/p>\n Breakfast<\/strong>: 2 fried eggs, cottage cheese, coffee with creamer and plain iced tea.\u00a0Calories: 342<\/em><\/p>\n Snack<\/strong>: Apple.\u00a0Calories: 80<\/em><\/p>\n Lunch<\/strong>:\u00a0Carrot Ginger Soup, sugar snap peas and a string cheese.\u00a0Calories: 231<\/em><\/p>\n Snack<\/strong>: Plain Greek yogurt, sliced strawberries, dried coconut flakes. \u00a0Calories: 135<\/em><\/p>\n Dinner<\/strong>: Spicy bratwurst with mustard and sauerkraut, couscous and steamed broccoli with Goddess Dressing.\u00a0Calories: 730<\/em><\/p>\n Calories burned:<\/strong> Went swimming and burned around 300 calories<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Dessert<\/strong>: Fun sized peanut butter snickers.
