I am trying to stick to a ~1700 calorie/day goal. 500-600 calories per meal and 100 calories for my treat at night. But I had a bit of a revelation while I was in Delavan. I am pretty regimented when it comes to having my PB2 smoothie while I am there. Davey told me to take out the honey (which I did and it took out 20 calories) so I was having about an 182 calorie breakfast everyday.
My normal lunch would be a sandwich or salad around 500 calories. That left SO MANY calories for the tough part of the day. Heather and I had discussed this so many times - the end of the day is the tough bit. So I planned on when I when I got back to Melbourne to change things around to an under 200 calorie brekkie (breakie bar) and then have my lovely breakfast for lunch. I LOVE this and it feels like a real treat!
Oatmeal or eggs for lunch - YUM!!!! And healthy.
If I go to my normal cafe at 11:30, they still serve breakfast then. And, I am a little hungrier if I only have 180 calories for breakfast - I am ready for lunch at 11:30. So far the scale likes what I am doing so lets see.
Good idea!
