A good day for me. Since I am trying to lower my triglicerides and cholesteral, my mom calculated how much Saturated fat I can have in a day: 12.5 grams. So, counting calories and sat fat should hopefully show some good results!
Breakfast: oatmeal with brown sugar splenda and skim milk, 1 Morningstar farms veggie sausage patty, fresh grapefruit juice. 378 calories, .5g sat fat. I actually didn't eat it all, but at weight watchers they said to count it all.
Exercise: tried to do yoga, but got sick after only a few minutes. I realized I hadn't taken my meds, but by then had to just sit on the couch for a while.
Snack: chips and salsa to boost sodium after forgetting meds. 150 cal, .5g sat fat.
Lunch: 1 chicken nugget, lean cuisine. 368 cal, 1.6 sat fat
Snack: popcorn. 225 cal.
Dinner: Lemon Greek Chicken, green beans. 248 cal, 1.6 sat fat
Dessert: Felt I did so well today I needed a treat- Yogurt Factory nonfat 5 oz. 175 cal.
Total: 1544 cal, 4.2 sat fat
I found a good website to calculate calories: caloriecount.about.com. This gives you what looks like a nutrition label, even on fresh foods, so it's easy to read.
Good luck today.
P.S. Erin, you and your running are amazing!
