Today my mom is coming to visit! We're going to go on a lunch date at Jersey Mike's Subs. I've never had them, but after a cursory glance at their website, they serve "Subs in a Tub," which tickled me to no end. Therefore, I am going to have a Turkey & Provolone Sub in a Tub, extra turkey of course.

And for dinner, I'm making homemade double downs. AW YEAH. Baked and seasoned chicken breasts for the buns--bacon, cheese, and mayo for the innards. I'm looking forward to this little experiment.

1200 sumthin' calories, 7-10 net carbs depending on what's actually in my Sub in a Tub today. YAY

I am tinkering with my workout time(s) and my metformin schedule. I take metformin twice a day and get dizzy while working out if I take it with breakfast and workout immediately after.

So, today I am going to try taking an early lunch break and going to workout then. I will have taken the metformin with breakfast (like what my MD told me to do) but will have had an extra snack in the meantime. Yesterday, I didn't take it with breakfast and went to the gym like usual. That was fine except that I couldn't take it *after* and ended up waiting till lunch. Then, I couldn't take the evening dose... ugh.

B: coffee + 1/2&1/2), 1 oz almonds, 1/2 cup blueberries
S (pre-workout): cheese stick
L (post-workout): leftover Linda Sue's spinach lasagna (a very small piece... not much is left!

)
D: hot italian turkey sausage, 1 cup grn beans
S: ? maybe an atkins bar or some full-fat greek yogurt (plain or with a TBS natural PB mixed in)

kare30bear · 05-22-2012, 06:21 AM

Sub in a Tub...that sounds AWESOME!!

B: 1 cup of Coffee w/CO, HWC & 1 pkt of Splenda + 2 Fried Eggs & 2 Sausage Patties

L: Chicken w/ 2 Whole Deviled Eggs
D: Chicken & Cheese Omelet

Divinexheirocity · 05-22-2012, 07:21 AM
