Hope everyone's week is flying by as fast as mine is, with things picking up at work and also with school... the days are coming and going faster then I realize!
First off..... I am COMPLETELY excited for tomorrow when I get to go home, pick up my boyfriend, and go to an Eric Church, Kip Moore, and Justin Moore concert!! My man has never been to a concert so I got him these tickets for his birthday!! I might just be more excited then he is - he will understand once we get there!!
Okay - so im going to give you all a little preview of what I eat in a regular weekday - please do not judge, Im just simply giving examples of the foods that my body works well off of.
Breakfast - before work I prepare something easy, usually an egg of some sort for a protein boost to get me up and going. Here is what I have been having a lot of lately - scrambled eggs with a large farm fresh tomato
Morning snack - usually a handfull of grapes, carrot sticks, or some un-salted almonds
Lunch - for the last few weeks I have been making enough supper each night so that I have lunch the next day, it has worked out GREAT!!
Afternoon snack - I usually don't eat a snack in the afternoon unless i get real hungary or if I know Im going to do an intense workout in the evening, examples of what I have is a rice cake, graham crackers, or an apple.
Dinner - This is my favorite meal because I have been doing alot of experimentation lately!! My obsession lately is baked potatoes made in the oven at 400°F for 20-25 min or until tender or.... zucchini julienne sliced and cooked with a tad of olive oil or butter just untill tender!! Delicious!! In this pic I have dill weed/onion baked chicken with some zucchini in a tsp. of alfrado sauce. YUMM healified chicken alfrado!!
So, there are some examples of my eating habits - I have been really trying to keep my diet clean and healthy with minimal sodium, sugar, gluten, or dairy. I have been very happy with my results the past few weeks!
I have to say I have also been eating a lot of fresh tomatoes this season. What a great year it has been for them to grow.
ReplyDeleteYour dishes look really good. I would eat your dishes except for the tomatoes. I have some bad experiences as a child eating tomatoes that I just do not like them. I have been eating healthy now because my mom's cholesterol level was very high so the doctor suggested a diet and instead of having to cook different meals, I told her to cook her diet for the whole family.
ReplyDeleteYour meals look delicious! I am a huge fan of tomatoes and zucchini. I admire that you choose your meals so wisely and are conscious about what goes into your body- plus the pictures are fun to look at! Hope you had a great time at the concert!
