2011 Food Diary, Day Two

Today was a bit more challenging than yesterday, perhaps its because I didn't sleep as soundly last night, or because I'm starting to feel the beginnings of the dreaded PMS wrath.  Regardless,  my energy levels were definitely not as potent as yesterday..... I skipped my workout today because my body asked it of me. I've noticed that in the past, when I ignore my body and force an intense workout from it, it usually punishes me with a bout of sinus infection that leaves me incapable of any excercise for a week!

To avoid this vicious cycle, today I excercised (pun intended) good judgement and rested. I did however stick to my low-carb plan. Here are the details:

Day Two (Feb 1st)

Breakfast: Same as yesterday's but this one was on the go. Used the same container my FAGE nonfat yougurt came in to take it with me. This breakfast is very healthy and filling but after two hours, you will need a snack. For snack I ate an orange, pictured below:

Lunch: The left-overs from yesterday's yummy dinner. Turkey patties and brocoli/cauliflower mash and a side of delicious salad made with romaine lettuce, onion, tomato, cucumber and kalamata olives.

Dinner: A delicious, healthy, warm and comforting chicken and veggie soup. Organic Chicken Breasts, organic chicken broth, red cabbage, red peppers, cauliflower, sqash, eggplant, spinach and lots of fresh herbs and spices. It was quite delish! Served with a slice of whoel grain bread and my 1/2 cup of POM juice (in my Puerto Rico coqui mug:)

Dessert is same as yesterday, 1/2 of an organic apple and 5 almonds.

Tomorrow is a new day!
