You Are What You Eat: Part 1

It has been requested of me to record and blog everything I eat for three days. I'm actually very excited to do this! I always record what I eat and drink everyday in my FitBit app. If you own a FitBit watch, you can do the same! If you aren't a FitBit owner, you can download myfitnesspal and log your food as well. It will tell you how many calories you are eating in a day and how many you have left in order to lose a certain amount of weight or maintain your weight. This is the best way to get an idea of how much you are actually eating. It's easy to forget high calorie drinks and snacks...they do count! Feel free to ask me any questions about these applications or about the food you see listed below.

Monday June 1st:

Breakfast:
-glass of water
-2 farm fresh, cage free eggs
-a handful of spinach leaves
-about 1/4 cup of white, organic mushrooms
(eggs, spinach, and mushrooms were prepared omelet style and cooked on stove over olive oil; seasoned with a pinch of salt)

Morning Snack:
-about 1/2 cup of red seedless grapes

Lunch:
-32 oz. diet lemonade from Chick-fil-a (water, real lemon juice, splenda)
-4 oz. 93% lean ground beef
-1/2 tbsp. chopped green peppers
-2 tbsp. white, organic mushrooms
(beef, peppers, and mushrooms were all tossed together in a pan and cooked on stove over olive oil; seasoned with a pinch of salt and tsp. of garlic)

Dinner (Olive Garden):

I don't measure out my food. These are just approximations.**
