January 19th


Start my day with one cup hot lemon water and 1/2 packet medifast and 1 cup black coffee (55 cal)

Pre-Workout breakfast
This breakfast was so good and kept me full till after my second boot camp class.
Oatmeal Protein Pancake Topped with Applesauce, Bananas, and strawberries
Today I used the applesauce instead of the agave nectar and it saves a lot of calories and still makes it really sweet.

  • One oatmeal protein pancake (201.25 cal) made these the other day- so just had to heat up
  • 1 tablespoon Trader Joes unsweetened applesauce (6.25 cal)
  • 75g strawberries (24 cal)
  • 50g sliced banana (42.6 cal)

I set out all the ingredients to make these bars quickly in the morning before class.
So, all I had to do was mix and bake while I got ready.
Found this great recipe from Katheat's blog and just modified it.
They are so good with oatmeal, walnuts, dark choc. chips, etc.

I individually wrapped them in saran wrap, so they are good snacks to grab and go.
125.4 calories each.

Post-Workout Snack
Tried one of the bars and loved it.
1/2 banana (42.6 cal)
Oatmeal Walnut Chocolate Chip Bar (125.4 cal)

Lunch
Strawberry Spinach Salad (163.25 cal)
  • 2 cups spinach
  • 3 strawberries
  • 3 oz chicken
  • 1 tablespoon fat free feta (TJ)
  • 1 tablespoon fat free balsalmic vinegar
I also had a sample meal from Optimal Nutrition meal delivery service that I am checking out.
Green chili enchiladas- They were great!


Snack (369.3 cal)
  • Sliced apples with sprinkled cinnamon (80 cal)
  • Ezekiel tortilla w/ 1 tablespoon almond butter and 1 tsp sugar free jam (253.3 cal)
  • Tru chocolate (36 cal)

Dinner (195.5 calories)
  • Grilled wild salmon burger fm TJ (110 cal)
  • 1/4 cup tzatziki w/ 80g cucumber (43 cal)
  • 2 cups romain and spring mix, 1/2 roma tomato, 1 tablespoon ff italian dressing (42.5 cal)


Today's Debrief: I almost had my dinner as my snack and my snack saved for dinner, but switched them so I had more calories earlier on and could have a lighter dinner.
My second snack is more like a meal and my dinner calories are more like a snack.
I've been happy with the Optimal Nutrition meals and so has my husband, but I think to really see how I like it I need to try a weeks worth that are delivered and I pick my meals and calorie range. I might try it next week. Looking into it and I will keep you posted. They also deliver nation wide, so if you don't live here they are a great all organic delivery service.
Happy the bars turned out, especially with the recent recall. I will be experimenting with even more of my own bars.
