Just checking in..

to see what you guys think about my menu today...
I have not had the time to put it all into fitday, I have been just adding together carb counts on the packages of food, but I am 99% sure this is pretty accurate.

Lunch:
1c spinach 1g carb
3 oz chicken 1g carb
1oz mozerella 1g carb

Snack:
pepperoni chips (not burnt!) 1g carb


Dinner:
1c cauliflower with cheese sauce 7 carbs

late night snack:
made these muffin things...1 strip of bacon wrapped around a muffin tin with an egg cracked inside and a tiny bit of cheese on top, I haven't eaten any yet but since I have to be up late ill probably have 1 maybe 2 later
2.5 carbs each

so I'm assuming I'm eating 2 egg mcmuffins later tonight, and that puts me at 16 carbs total.

What do you guys think? good/bad? thanks!

Well fridays and saturdays are really weird schedule wise for me...I wake up around 11 because I have to be up until 3am..so my lunch is really my breakfast I guess, I just dont call it that bc its a salad :-p and my late night snack I guess would be my dinner...is that still bad? I eat REAL breakfast Sunday-Thurs, then friday and saturday i start with lunch, but have a snack at night.

It IS a lot lot less than what I used to eat, but everytime I eat more than a cup and a half of food I feel SICKLY full. I am eating until I am not hungry anymore. Hmm so I should add in more veggies...I need to get creative then! Cauliflower and spinach are my favorites so I tend to eat them a lot while my asparagus and broccoli sit in the freezer. Maybe I should make a goal to have 1c of veggies with every meal I eat...even breakfast..that way I know I'm getting enough. Should I eat MORE anyway, even though I feel full after every meal?

They already said it, but I'd eat a little more. More protein... maybe for dinner.

You could always make a sauce from some cooked red peppers or onions - just puree them in a food processor or chop them really fine, add some butter and perhaps some cream or grated cheese.

hmm, well thanks for the suggestions! I have no means to puree anything at the moment, I'm saving up for a food processor, but it may be a month or so before I can get one...My finances are really tight right now because I'm having a lot of work done on my car. I could add in some more protien though...I WISH I could have low carb tortillas, then I'd make some yummy chicken fajitas!
