First off, do not have your breakfast meal for dinner. That’s a no no because breakfast is high in carbs to start out your morning. It’s ok eating a late dinner… Just stick with solid proteins and lots of veggies.

7AM – can you have some kind or protein in there?
10AM – Good… you can add a fruit here if you like.
12PM –Yeah.. sandwich is fine… more veggies ok!
2PM – Try not to have high sugary fruits.. Keep it in the morning. (How about String cheese wrap with turkey deli? Or Grilled Chicken breast & steam veggies?
4PM - Almonds nuts or mixed nuts? Fat free/ low fat cottage cheese? Low fat cheese
6PM – Girl.. It’s not that bad to have brown rice. You can try wild rice if that might be better. White rice is not all that bad… just high in starch unlike brown rice… high in fiber.
9PM – if you like... you can have another hard boiled egg whites, or scramble egg whites, or protein shakes, or grilled chicken or turkey deli.

Last night was Jaime’s bday… There’s Cheese Cake… YOU BETTER NOT have one!
Carl told me to save him some.. which I did… But for me.. I walked away from it..
(Pat on back… I’m being a good girl…. )

Keep posting... and if you have questions.. keep asking

it's actually not dinner... its actually a snack because i get hungry at night sometimes.. dinner was the rice and tofu.... is fat free milk and corn flakes bad to eat at night?

[Nokie173]

Fat free milk is fine... but I personally would not eat cereal at night because of the carbs.
I would have some protein instead.

it was enough to hold me up until dinner.. i didnt wanna eat dinner right before because i know i would have got cramps...i was starving when i was done tho... but i didn't over eat when i got home... i had half a small bowl and half a bowlf of beef and broccoli

[Nokie173]

Can you add a hard boiled egg there too? It would give you a bit more energy or you think it will give you cramps?...
And once you get your protein shake this weekend... maybe you can have that after your workout.

i actually wanted to add a egg but i was in a rush because friend was picking me up right after work to go to the lake.... so if i do drink protien shakes after workout... whould i be able to eat tooo?? or should the protien shake be alone

[Nokie173]

Of course you can eat.... Have your dinner. You mentioned you were starving after your run... Have your shake with you. The time you get home.. enjoy your dinner.

7:00am- 1 cup of multi-grain cheerios, 1 cup of fat free milk

11:00am- 1 medium gala apple, 1 whole egg, 4 egg whites

12:45p- whole wheat pita, roasted garlic hummus, turkey, 1 low fat string cheese

2:00pm- half a hand full of roasted edamame

3:00pm- half cup of yams

4:30pm- 4 chicken breast strips, 1 low fat string cheese

6:45pm- 1 medium bowl of Vietnamese chicken noodle soup, couple pieces of kellogs fruit snacks

[Boss Man]

Polite observation, but I don't see the point of you splitting some stuff up.

I think when you had the Eggs and the Pear, you could have had them together as one meal.

Same with the Edamame and Yams. As Edamame is probably quite Protein and Fat rich, being a Soy product, you could add some Yams as a Carb source, but not too much, as the Edamame would have some already.

Then add a few more caloeis back in at Breakfast, like a bit of Chicken, or Lean Ham perhaps. Add a bit more Protein in, so you're just removing a little Carb later on, then adding a bit more Protein earlier on, to keep calories balanced, but make a little shift.
