Man Food

I accidentally erased my breakfast pics!  They were spicy oats with a fried egg: 355 calories, 28 carbs, 19 fat and 19 protein.  I had every intention of hitting the gym hard at lunch today, but I forgot about a work luncheon!  It ended up being sandwiches and salad – not too bad, except for some odd reason after I ate 1/2 of a sandwich and a bit of salad . . . I went back and ate another half of sandwich! 

I didn’t need it, I was full, but for whatever reason, I ate it.  I felt so full all afternoon!  I have to start eating intuitively – had I waited 20 minutes after the first round, I never would have picked up the second sammie.

To make it worse, on the second sammie, I just ate the insides and put the bread to the side! 

I am guestimating the calories on this – it may have been 100 calories more?

Luckily dinner was solved – Tony took the reigns!  I sometimes forget what a great cook Tony is because I am usually the one hogging the kitchen!  Tonight was Pure Man Food!  He got a great deal on t-bone steaks – three giant steaks for only $9!

It’s supposed to be very warm in the midwest this weekend – tonight was no exception.  Probably around 60 degrees!  So even though it was dark out, that didn’t stop Tony from grilling!   The grill was screaming hot when he put the steaks on!

And he also made seasoned baked potatoes in the oven.  He rubbed them with a little olive oil, coarse salt and pepper and baked them at 450 in a cast iron skillet – I loved the fact that the skin touching the skillet was nice and crispy, while the inside was fluffy!   Below is my steak – I didn’t eat it all!  I had about 4 ounces of the meat and half of my baked potato.  The steak was a perfect medium rare and so juicy!

 

Dinner came in at 355 calories, 32 carbs, 11 fat and 31 protein.   So when I look at my stats for the day, it isn’t too bad, but I need to include more fruits and veggies into my diet, as well as more complex carbs.  I am footloose and fancy free for several hours on Sunday, so a good grocery shop will be in order!

Stats for the Day

• 1342 calories
• 52 fat
• 139 carbs
• 79 protein
• 12 fiber (another thing to bump up!)
• no exercise

We are just about to watch a documentary about Mike Tyson.  He is so crazy!  Tony was actually at the fight where he bit off the ear of Evander Holyfield! 

Have a safe Friday night all – see you tomorrow night!
