Daily Diet

For those who are curious, here is what I'm eating on a daily basis. I'm not big on measuring every scrap, so all quantities are eyeballed.

(And to keep it simple, my morning coffee is always 12-16 oz. with just a tbsp. of cream or half-and-half. "Dark, no sugar" for you New Yorkers out there. I also drink at least 9-10 cups of water throughout the day.)


8/14/11
Breakfast: Coffee
Lunch: Greek village salad (tomatoes, cucumbers, green peppers, onion, oregano vinaigrette) with 3-4 oz. gyro meat, 2-3 oz. feta, 4 olives and 1 tbsp. tzatziki; Diet Coke
Dinner: 4 oz. beef tenderloin; sauteed cauliflower/broccoli/snow peas/asparagus; 1 glass cabernet; 1/4 C. vanilla ice cream; 1 square inch brownie; 1 strawberry; 1 raspberry (Grandma's 80th birthday party)
Late snack: 1 oz. cheddar cheese; 5 slices turkey bacon

8/12/11
Breakfast: Coffee; 1 string cheese
Lunch: Attempt at personal pan pizza (failed, but tasty): grated cauliflower, mozzarella, leftover chicken breast, 1/4 red bell pepper, dribble of BBQ sauce, cilantro. Leftover banana pudding with dollop of whipped cream and last snickerdoodle crumbled on top.
Dinner: FOOTBALL!! 6 buffalo wings, dipped in dressing; 3 oz. cheeses; a few celery sticks with 1/2 C. guacamole; 1/2 sausage-stuffed portabello mushroom; 4 glasses wine (oops)

8/11/11
Breakfast: Coffee; 3 small snickerdoodles
Lunch: Leftover cold shrimp chowder deluxe; 2 more snickerdoodles
Snack: 4-inch mozzarella cheese crisp; 1 slice turkey
Dinner: 6 oz. catfish almondine (recipe to come); 1 C. sauteed broccoli rabe with garlic
Dessert: Banana Cream Pie parfait: 1 crumbled snickerdoodle; 1/2 C. sugar-free Jello banana cream pudding (made with 1/2 cream and 1/2 cold water); 2 tbsp. whipped cream; 2 chopped walnut halves
(That's 9g carbs in snickerdoodles alone today. Not horrible, but not great. Dangerous stuff.)
