Good Morning you FLABULOUS people!
Here's a recap of day 2:
- UNDER my calorie goal! WOO!
- Still learning to control that sodium, carb, and sugar intake.
- Tortillas are insane when it comes to sodium!
- Breakfast: I tried one of those Carnation instant breakfast things. Between that and the milk to mix it with...totally unnecessary calories. Those things are suppose to replace an entire meal? No mam! I drank some powdery milk and that's it. I also ate two pieces of toast and that wasn't too bad.
- Lunch: Oh boy....I ate my chicken noodle soup and some baby carrots with sour cream/ranch dip. I know the soup is outrageous in sodium as is the sour cream.
- Dinner: I tried a new recipe for baked tacos! This was exciting because I never actually cook stuff! Well, I used ground turkey, mixed in about 3/4's a can of re-fried beans, a 6oz can of tomato sauce, and taco seasoning. Then you take medium (or small even) tortilla shells and stand them up in a casserole (i think) pan. Spoon in the meat mixture, add cheese on top, and bake at 375 for 10 minutes! Sounds simple enough, right? Well they were awesome! Jon said it was better than Taco Bell, ha! Next time i'll use less beans and a better seasoning. When I added it all to my food diary I was SHOCKED at how much EVERYTHING the tortillas had!! The meal totaled to 2,079 grams of sodium! As you can see below, my DAILY LIMIT is 2,300! I will be trying this meal again but i've got to find a substitute for those tortillas!
- Snack: I am proud to say that my only snack was a granola bar! A granola bar filled with chocolate chips and drizzled in sweet, yummy chocolate!
