Breakfast....3 egg omlett with bacon and ham, atkins shake

lunch....brought to work with me tuna in 1/2 avocado, salad with lettuce, turkey, feta, cheddar, 1 hard boiled egg and bc dressing

dinner will be tyson hot wings (12), pepperoni with mozzerella melted and broccolli

I trying to include veggies but sometime have trouble getting enough protein and still eat them. I'm big but not much appetite. Go figure that.

Are there things I could eat more protein dense, so I can have more room for other things. I'm trying to get it all in for better health and want to succeed.

you could parse out your protein from 3 meals to 4 meals - and then it would be a reduced qty at each meal. Or you could supplement at a meal with a protein shake and smaller protein portion -- this works well for me at breakfast, for example.

I had some black pudding, bacon & a scrambled egg for breakfast, with a slice of toasted desem bread, then some loganberries & yogurt and a cup of coffee.

Lunch was avocado, prawns & tomato.

Dinner was chicken Caesar salad, then a peach with some cream. And a glass of wine.

I also had some green tea, white tea, cinnamon tea (a spice mix, no actual tea), lemon verbena and nettle.

Wasn't sure if I would join in, so I'm trying to remember:

Breakfast - protein shake (powder, psyllium, yogurt, silken tofu, raspberries, coconut milk (frozen), small piece of banana I believe, water)

Through morning - 1 tea with cream, remainder black; water

Lunch - mixed greens, marinated mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, pork tenderloin

Snack - black tea; scone (adaptatation of Gaelen's recipe - no flax!!)

Dinner - steak (bbq), fresh green beans

Snack - coffee, black, almond-coconut bark - I really didn't do a good job of it this time, but it's there. Perhaps I should just freeze it and get it out of the way or I'll just eat it "just because"

Wow, I can't believe it's been SO long since I posted! I started a third job :eek: so I've just been insanely busy. Almost every Monday I'd think "I have to remember to post tonight!" and then about Thursday morning I'd remember I didn't. Ack! I'm surprised I didn't forget again tonight.

1) On the run, bad me; 1 c milk and 2 string cheese.
2) LC chicken alfredo w/ 2c Dreamfields pasta and 1 6 oz can of chicken breast.
3) Dinner salad w/ ranch, 3/4 of two 1/3 pound burger patties w/ bacon and cheese.

Too tired to plug it into Dietpower to get numbers, though. Water was low, exercise was 2/3 jobs.
