Sunday – today was brats and salad – Memorial Day Week-end. My salad was 6 cups of greens – combination of romaine, iceberg and spinach. Added 2 oz of cheese and 1 egg. Leftover ranch dressing. Grilled two brats with dill relish, little no sugar ketchup and mustard. Very good lunch and I ate it all. It does take me almost an hour to eat it!! The brats were only 190 calories each. My meal was under 1000 calories.
I tried the sweet and spicy herbal tea today as a cold drink. I really like it hot. So today I made it, let it cool and poured it over ice. I didn’t like it. I am not a black tea or cold tea drinker at all. But I do like hot herbal tea. Thought I would try it cold. It wasn’t for me. 🙂
We are kicked back watching TV today. Rode bikes this morning, grilled out and now kicked back. I do want to make some cookies and shortbread for my husband. I do all baking with almond flour and no sugar. So if I want any of it, I will eat it during my one hour window. I don’t have a problem that. But like Amanda says, my body is going to use as fuel my calories first and then my fat. so I don’t want a ton of calories, if I want to lose weight.
