Re: OWLERS "Stepping Back" thread

Okay, Alexa, where do i find Tofu and what is it like?? ive never had it and never seen it anywhere... what can i do with it other than smoothies? as berries affect me, that wouldnt be a good idea.

Hi Em I just noticed this post and remembered I had found a bunch of tofu recipes last year.

You will have to check ingredients and maybe substitute some to make it lowcarb but there are lots of ideas on how to use tofu.

Dinner - Chef Salad with lettuce, cucumbers, celery, tomatoes, turkey, ham, roast beef, cheese, ranch dressing

OMG! I am sooooo tired... the day felt incredibly long at work today. After getting home at 7:30, we went out to eat and that's where I ate the Chef Salad. I definitely don't feel like trying to guestimate totals in Fitday, so I'm blowing it off tonight. Ate well.

Re: OWLERS "Stepping Back" thread

Breakfast: 3oz chicken breast, 2 eggs, .66 oz American cheese, 1.5 oz tomato, .75oz chopped onion (an omelette) w/ a dash of garlic salt.

Lunch: 3oz chicken breast, 2.5oz salad mix, 2oz tomato, .5oz sunflower seeds, 1oz ranch.

As it stands I'm at 795 calories, 51% protein/9% carb (19 total-3 fiber=16 net)/40% protein.

I still have lots of room for the day, so I'll likely have some cottage cheese w/ raspberries, splenda and cinnamon for a snack at some point. Dinner tonight will be Jambalaya.


Can you tell I have a ton of chicken to burn through? LOL
