02/08/08 Meals for the Day
Friday is a gym day, so had to start off with some nice, substantial Kashi.
Breakfast: 265 calories, 4.5 grams fat, 44 grams carbs, 8 grams fiber, 15 grams protein
Got out of the gym late and knew I wouldn’t be up for fixing myself something when we got home, so I swung through Wendy’s and grabbed an Ultimate Chicken Grill. Debated leaving off the honey mustard sauce and saving 40 calories but dog gone it, I’d worked hard enough at the gym to have earned it.
Lunch: 320 calories, 7 grams fat, 36 grams carbs, 2 grams fiber, 28 grams protein
Back to the Zone bar for convenience sake. Chocolate Graham, one of the “it’s ok, but not amazing” flavors.
Snack: 210 calories, 7 grams fat, 23 grams carbs, 3 grams fiber, 14 grams protein
After a ten minute bout of staring at leftover pizza in the fridge and debating if it was worth eating some, I gave in and broke off a piece of crust about the size of my pinkie nail. I ate it. It didn’t taste good.
Hooray! Saved from my own temptations.
I ended up eating another can of Progresso soup and making myself a nice yummy salad. At the last minute, I decided to toss a hard boiled egg on top because it was late enough (7pm) I knew I wasn’t going to end up having time or desire to eat dessert. Pretty filling dinner.
Dinner: 517 calories, 17 grams fat, 60 grams carbs, 9.5 grams fiber, 29 grams protein
Kicked butt today in the exercise department. Pushed as hard as I’ve pushed on the Elliptical with cross training. Then put in a good stretching session to keep things nice and loose from the Yoga I’ve been doing and rounded it out with 20 minutes of the weight machines. Added an extra set of reps to every machine today as well.
Total calories burned at the gym: 500 (BOO YA!)
Daily total: 1302 calories, 35.5 grams fat, 163 carbs, 22.5 grams fiber, 88 grams protein.
Net total calories for the day: 1302 - 500 = 802 calories.
