Daily Diet Journal – 6/22/2009
Started the morning off slow. So far, just coffee and a “Fiber One” bar. Grand total – 150 calories for both. I’m actually about to go get a 2nd cup of coffee – so that’ll bring my total for the day so far up to 160 calories. For lunch, I’ll be heading to St. Louis Bread Company. Going to be getting either the Chicken Ceasar Salad or the Chicken Salad Sandwich – haven’t decided yet. Current plans for dinner are chicken and veggies – though I’m not sure how I’ll prepare either one at this point.
Went to BreadCo with the intentions of getting the Chicken Salad Sandwich. I was told that they had recently switched the recipe and it was now an “Almond Chicken Salad Sandwich” – adding in Almonds and Grapes!! Personally, I like my Chicken Salad sans fruit, so I went with the Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad instead. For the side, I got an apple. I just finished my salad, but I’ve got to say I’m still hungry. This is going to be tougher than I thought – though I think my willpower is good! I haven’t eaten the apple as I’d like to save it for my mid-afternoon snack. I went on the website to doublecheck my numbers and it seems the Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad has DROPPED in calories. The whole thing is now just 500 total!! So that brings my total for the day up to 660 calories. Tonight – chicken and veggies!
For dinner – I really did not feel like cooking so I ended up fixing a meal in a bag. In this case, it was a “Voila” – specifically the Garlic Chicken. It was a little higher in calories than I wanted to spend on dinner – but it fit the bill and I’m still under for the entire day. Dinner – 840 calories. That brings my total to right around 1500.
