What I Ate Wednesday



I decided to do my first ever food journal for the day. I won't be doing this every week, but I thought it would be good to keep me accountable. Keep in mind I took some of the pics with my phone and I am not a food blogger.... which means, my photography skills are less than stellar.

Breakfast (6-7am): coffee, with half and half (no picture)
1/2 plainoats with a splash of skim milk (no picture)
3 egg whites

Post-workout snack (10:30am): Green monster


Late lunch (1:30pm): 1/2 cup Chobani yogurt topped with a handful of granola.
handful of almonds


Afternoon snack (3:00pm): handful of almonds, a few sunflower seeds


Dinner (5:30): grilled chicken, roasted broccoli, quinoa


 Dessert (7:45): Yogurt Mountain! This was my reward for sitting through an hour and a half meeting for my daughter's upcoming Lacrosse season.

I was busy working in the office at home today and really didn't have time to make super healthy snacks, so I just grabbed what was ready to eat. I should have incorporated more fruit, or paired the almonds with 2 hardboiled egg whites. 

I also drank a ton of water. I drink about 32 ounces during a workout, and sip on water all day long. Last night, I also made some hardboiled eggs to keep on hand. I am making some protein bars today. It's good to keep clean eats readily available to prevent you from eating processed foods.
