Day 5: The bf's birthday

Today is the bf's birthday and it's been a struggle to not take everyone up on their offers for dinner and drinks. We managed though. Here's how my day went:

Breakfast:
1/2 protein, 1/2 fat, 1 starch
I used half my allotted Tbp of Promise Ultra Lite to butter some bread and made eggs in a basket for me and the bf. We each only had 1 egg and 1 piece of bread so we could save the others for snacks later on

Snack:
1 fruit and 4oz skim milk
I did another smoothie today with frozen peaches and my milk. It was sweeter than the strawberry but still a far cry from anything remotely great. The bf decided he didn't like it so I save his portion for tomorrow. I put it in the freezer so it will be more like an Italian ice than a smoothie.

Lunch:
1 protein, 1 veggie and 2Tsp of Kraft Lite dressing
I had put some chicken breasts in the crock pot when I first woke up and seasoned them up really well so I used mine at lunch with my cup of lettuce. It wasn't bad at all.

Snack:
1 fruit
I had 10 green grapes on my way to class. I've decided that grapes only make me more hungry, I love them so much that 10 only leaves me wanting more.

Dinner:
1/2 protein, 1/2 fat, 2 veggies
I made another egg in a basket for dinner, I really like doing it that way. I also steamed some broccoli and cauliflower.

That leaves me still needing another veggie so I'll snack on some celery before I head to bed. With my sleep schedule being so off since I'm not working until Monday I'm having a hard time eating EVERYTHING on my list. The bf on the other hand says it's still not enough for him.

He is struggling with the fruits so I bought a whole pineapple and a bag of oranges and a bag of green apples to entice him into eating more.

I still haven't planned tomorrows menu but I'm thinking about picking up some shrimp for us for dinner.

We spend a lot more time at the grocery store now that we are buying fresh fruits and veggies. I've been every other day since the start of this and  it doesn't look like it's going to lessen up anytime soon.

Oh and I played Dance Central in workout mode on the Kinect last night to get up and get moving more. We're going to buy bikes in the spring so we can go out and ride some of the bike paths around the area. Start small right?
