Not Sure What I Ate – Daily Update
Well, that’s not necessarily true. It’s not like I’m not tracking what it is I ate, I’m just not sure how bad / good it was for me. The meal I’m referring to is lunch. We decided to hit a local favorite Mexican restaurant, El Agave. Usually I’ll get a heart stoppingly huge (and delicious) burrito, or the Chili Colorado, but this time, I had to look for a healthier option. It came down to a taco salad or a “Mix Fajita”. I opted for what I thought was the lesser of the two evils and went for the fajitas. What arrived was both surprising and shocking. One plate had a heaping pile of meat and veggies, while another plate had rice, refried beans, lettuce and tomato. I pushed the 2nd plate away and quickly dug into the main dish (minus tortillas, of course). There was just a ton of food there. I’m not sure how much of each of the proteins there were, but my rough guess is 4oz steak, 4oz chicken, and 4oz of shrimp. I could be completely wrong on those numbers, but it was so difficult to tell since everything was just piled in together and mixed with a ton of peppers and onions. It was absolutely fabulous, but I’m still not sure how much it was, calorie-wise. For now, I’m just going to guess 800, but that could be WAY high (or way low, for that matter). Guestimates anyone?
Breakfast was a Fiber One yogurt for 50 calories. Dinner was 8oz of chicken (240 calories) and Steam Fresh Broccoli and Cauliflower (105 calories). After dinner, I had a 100 calorie Yogurt. So, all together, I’m estimating about 1295 calories for the day (give or take a few hundred….)
