Food Today

I did fairly well today. I went a little off the plan at the end of the day because I had to find something vegetarian to eat for supper. We did dissections today in a class I was overseeing and it smelled just a little too horrible all day for me to consider eating anything that once had a heart beat. I did some last minute adjustments and some scary minutes wandering around a grocery store, starving and past my dinner time (always a bad idea). In the end I did okay.

6:30 am omlette and red peppers and a tangerine, latte with 1/2 cup 2% milk

9:45 am granny smith apple and tbsp peanut butter

1:00 pm tuna and cottage cheese

1:50 pm two tangerines

4:00 pm gluten free muesli bar

7:00 pm falafel patties and sauted veggies with tzatziki wrapped in lettuce leaves and a small bowl of homemade chocolate pudding a decaf latte.

The whole day came in at around 1500 Calories. Not too bad and man was supper delicious.

  4. Hi Ruthie,
    Falafel is middle eastern. It is a spicy (not hot just flavourful) mixture made from ground up chick peas with lemon and cilantro and cumin and such. The mix is shaped into balls or patties and fried. I cooked my with cooking spray in a non-stick pan to really cut down on the fat since most of it is added in the cooking and other than that they are healthy. If you have a natural foods section in your local grocery you might find a version that comes as a powder in a box that you add water to. If you are in North America and I recall correctly, Fantastic Foods makes a mix that is available there.

  5. Congrats on doing C25k! It is a great plan!
