Today was ok. Had some difficulty making my macros work today – breakfast was a bit carby, the dinner I wanted to make was too high in protein because the DH had double meat breakfast, and lunch was unsatisfying because I was trying to make everything fit so didn’t have chicken on my salad.
Breakfast

Had a slightly different smoothie this morning – spinach, lemon juice, cilantro, ginger, avocado, collagen, MCT oil & coconut water. A little carby, but overall not bad. Still not as thick as I like, but the taste was at least not sweet.

Lunch

A little carb heavy – cruciferous crunch salad with lemon Rosemary dressing.

Dinner

I may die of cheese, but this was delicious. Crispy cheese crust pizza with ground beef, guacamole, a little sour cream and green onions.

Snack

2 of my coconut fat Bombs because lunch was unfulfilling, then 1 ounce pepperoni because I still wasn’t satisfied.

Snacked a bunch at lunch – a couple Tablespoons guacamole on a cheese chip while cooking, a squeezie of almond butter & a meat stick I grabbed at the grocery.

Small filet mignon + mashed cauliflower with roasted garlic, cream and butter.

Today was Ok – stomach felt kinda fuzzy all afternoon; was a little heartburny in the morning and went through some evening nausea. Overall ok though. 
Breakfast

2 coconut fat bombs & coffee with almond milk.

Lunch

Forgot to take a pic. Went to SmashBurger again – had a bunless burger with avocado, bacon, lettuce, tomato, ranch & a fried egg.

Dinner

Didn’t really have dinner – just smacked on things I was batch cooking (cheese chips and mini meatballs) and had some snack nuts during the fights.

Today was full of running around, vague stomach pains from eating too much cheese, and almost making poor food choices. What it was not full of: veggies. I had nary a vegetable all day yesterday. Oops.
Breakfast

Coffee + 2 egg/bacon/cheese cups. And they’re snowflake shaped.

Snack

Packed a second cup of coffee for my meeting.

Lunch

I didn’t really have lunch, per se – I was too busy running around. Luckily, I packed a bunch of snacks:

1 ounce macadamia nuts

1 ounce cashews

1 hard boiled egg

1 ounce pepperoni

Snack

While home between meetings and throwing something together for a friends’ party, I smacked on 2 slices of cheese (which was a dumb plan in hindsight but some days I like to live dangerously with cheese), and some of those tasty, tasty Fat Bombs as I was running out the door.

Dinner

I also didn’t have time for dinner. Luckily, I had about half an hour to kill and could hunt for something I can eat while sitting in a lecture. I went to Pret A Manger First because they sometimes have little cups with just avocado and lime and sell hard boiled eggs. They were out of what I wanted and the protein bowls all had edamame and/or quinoa in them. So – Pret was out. Went to Walgreens instead. 

Bought a snack pack of smoked Almonds and some plain bacon jerky after looking at the labels of all 10 varieties of jerky and being horrified at how many carbs some had. The store brand (Nice!) of this particular flavor (plain smoky) had only 1 gram carbs per serving. Win! 

Forgot to snap a pic. 

Snack

Had a second helping of the jerky.
