What's on your Tuesday menu?

Dottie · 08-16-2011, 06:44 AM

Good morning

B: tea
D: 5oz ribeye steak, 1 large egglands best egg and 3 button mushrooms topped with fresh pico de gallo (1tsp coconut oil)
snack: 1/2 an avocado - I had brunch instead of dinner lol
S: 4-5oz chicken breast sauteed w/ 1/2 cup peppers and onions; 1 cup cauliflower "rice" w/lime, cilantro and 1 roma tomatoe; 1/2 an avocado (1 tsp coconut oil)

Now here's the issue: IF I have the half avocado as a snack, it's still only 910 calories for the day!
910 cals; 55g fat; 36g carbs; 17g fiber; 75g protein

I don't know lol. I eat protein until I'm full really, and it's usually between 60-100g a day.

I eat around 70 to 100 grams of protein per day also, depending on how hungry I am for it. I also dont ever measure my foods, just guess. I cant limit vegetables, they are what fill me up. I do watch (try to lol) my fats, I know heating up olive oil is not supposed to be good for you, but I dont always want to fry in coconut oil or other. Do any of you make your own ghee?

Not sure what I'm going to eat today, I do know I want a really big salad with alot of variety for Lunch. Steak does sound good for Dinner, some fresh green beans with bacon and onion too.
