November 10, 2009


5 UMP shake during workout


8:30 4 eggs, ¾ cup oatmeal with 1 Tablespoon elderberry jam, green pepper


10:30 celery almonds


12:30 6 ounces chicken, sweet potatoe, salad, cauliflower and broccoli mix


2:30 ¼ cup hummus, apple, carrots


5:30 4 ½ ounces of venison meatballs, tomatoe sauce, spaghetti squash


During the 21 Challenge a protein shake alone would not count as a compliant meal/snack since it does not contain veggies. I do not count the shake I drink during my training as part of my meals or snacks. In other words I make sure I get 5-6 meals/snacks on top of the protein shake that I have at 5 AM. To make my protein shake compliant I would have to add veggies.

salad, 1 ounce of cheese, ¼ cup salsa


7:45   pumpkin pie shake





I make most everything we eat from scratch so I am not getting the preservatives, added colorings, or the extra sugars and fats. But many of the things I ate today have great alternatives you can buy. There are plenty of good salsas as well as purchasing refried beans. Yesterday I cooked the pumpkins many of us used on our Thrills and Chills workout so even that was fresh but you can buy the 100% pumpkin too. Its quick easy and delicious!

Thursday

5 AM 1 Scoop vanilla protein powder with water at training

7:30 1 whole egg, 2 eggs whites, onion, mushroom, 1 oz cheese, oatmeal

10:30 carrot, hummus

1:30 venison meatballs with homemade tomatoe sauce and shirataki noodles

5PM 4 oz pork roast, spinach salad, carrots


Don’t be fooled like I was. I went to the health food store and picked up shirataki noodles.  I read only the front label. I bought the wrong kind. These were made of tofu and some flour combination. The real shirataki noodles are made up of a veggie fiber and not tofu. Don’t buy them at the store they have to be ordered online.
