Pre-workout scarfdown:

1 slice of whole wheat bread

120 calories

8:30 AM

Breakfast:

Breakfast Burrito (find recipe here)

3/4 of an apple

319 calories

OK -- It was supposed to be a burrito.  I had every intention of rolling this baby up. But with all those goodies in there, I couldn't close it and ended up eating it with a fork.  

10:45 AM

Mid-morning snack:

1/2 cantaloupe

1/2 cup of low fat cottage cheese

All the kids were at school.  

I had the kitchen all to myself.  

I ate the entire half of the cantaloupe.  

And I didn't have to share one bite of it.  

I love school.

1:30 PM

Lunch:

 Leafy Green Salad with Albacore Tuna

(recipe coming soon!)

4:00 PM

Mid-afternoon snack:

Chocolate Milk
(find recipe here)

208 calories

6:30 PM

Dinner:

Sweet and Sour Chicken (recipe coming soon)
1/2 cup brown rice

291 calories

I wanted a little more fruit or something to add to this meal.  However, carpools took over and I had to get out the door.  

9:00 PM

I had a few extra calories floating around, so I used them here:

1 cup Kashi Go Lean Cereal

1/2 cup almond milk

178 calories

Under 227 calories.  Somewhat of a lean day.
I should have had some more chocolate.
Bummer.
