Lots of tea with oat milk, sips of water throughout the day, lots of chicken, two organic eggs, and chocolate!
Egg and avocado. Bacon and broccoli with cheddar and goat's cheese. Dark chocolate with hazelnut. A few raspberries. Coffee with heavy cream. Electrolytes, vitamin D3, and B1.
Seems like avocado's on the menu today. Just had a hard salame and avocado sandwhich on sourdough. And beer for some extra protein for my head - brain, not hair.
Porridge with peanut butter powder and milk
1 banana, 1 satsuma, 1 pear
A salad with quorn and pumpkin seeds
Brocolli with tea - burrito
I had an open faced egg, bacon, and cheese sandwich, which I had with my morning coffee and my multivitamin. Lunch was mac and cheese with a brat chopped up in it.
Boiled eggs with salt, which broke my 21-hour fast. Two small tortillas (leftovers with minced meat, lettuce, and corn). Skyr with heavy cream. A big chunk of mozzarella cheese. Coffee with heavy cream, and rosehip tea with ashwagandha. Electrolytes, and vitamins D3 and B1.
For some reason, I struggled to get in the calories today, but I tried to make the most of it anyway. I don't even feel like eating dark chocolate now like I usually do in the evening. :( Oh well, it's an extraordinarily early start for my fast, I guess.
ETA: Forgot the skyr.
Scrambled eggs with sausage and brocolli
Salad with quorn and pumpkin seeds
Sweet potato mash and sweetcorn with tea.
Berries and grapes
Champignons, bacon, and goat's cheese. Mozzarella cheese. Dark mint chocolate. Green tea with nettle and ginger, and rosehip tea with ashwagandha. Coffee. Electrolytes, and vitamins D3 and B1. Fasted for about 25 hours.
I'm still on the berries-kick. I am currently out, but hoping to get some tomorrow!
Today for breakfast I ate a chocolate chip baked bar with some cashews, my morning snack I had a protein & probiotic chocolate shake and a medium banana, and for lunch I had a BBQ seasoned chicken melt with 2 servings of non-starchy vegetables. Like, brocolli, cauliflower, and carrots. Then, for my late afternoon snack I had a cup of Greek yogurt, a medium apple, and a cup of non-starchy vegetables, and then for dinner I had been Bolognese with 2 servings of non-starchy vegetables. Lastly, for my night snack I had a chewy chocolate fudge bar.
Hmph. Day 3 or 4 of booze, cigarettes, and coffee. I had eggs the other day but I'm defo off my feed. Good ideas in this thread!
A pancake with honey, fried egg, and coffee with my multivitamin.
I got raspberries from the store today, 2x 250grams. The last couple boxes they had! I will eat those in a couple days. Totally. One little case just got washed and is out for me to nibble at! I don't know what's up, but I needed to eat more fruit, that was certain.
Today I ate fish and salad :) oh and blueberries!
Made a vegetable Lo Mein, since my surgery I am so low on vitamins so I figured this would help. Also taking a multivitamin :flower:
Pulled pork and goat's cheese. A cheesy oven sausage. Skyr with heavy cream. Dark mint chocolate. Coffee, and rosehip tea with ashwagandha. Electrolytes, vit. D3 and B1.
I had an avocado, fish and rice bowl!
Fried salmon with potatoes, peas and lemon&dill sauce.
Jumping on this thread since I want to be more mindful of my eating habits.
Yesterday I ate a chicken ham sandwich with cheese, baked potatoes with chicken breast, pesto pasta, a banana and grapes.
Banana oatmeal with banana slices and some cinnamon, coffee and multivitamin.
Yesterday: Pork and sauerkraut. Skyr with heavy cream. Dark chocolate. Coffee and tea. Electrolytes, D3, and B1.
Today: Boiled eggs and avocado. Champignons, bacon, and goat's cheese. Dark chocolate. Coffee, and tea with ashwagandha. Electrolytes, D3, and B1.
I love dark chocolate in the evening as well. I am kinda weird though and eat it with peanut butter. At least I'm getting some more protein that way!Quote:

PS: my vitamin D supplement and an odd Men's One a Day Over 50 vitamin.
Yesterday I ate a chicken ham sandwich with cheese, whole grain bread with tomato sauce, olives and spinach, oatmeal with yogurt, strawberries and honey and some rice with chicken breast.
Fried egg, toast w/apple jelly, sausage links, coffee, and a multivitamin. Tonight I'm making chicken thighs, corn, and baked potatoes.
Porridge with chocolate philadelphia and the scraps left out of my mixed nuts
Salad with avocado, quorn chicken and pumpkin seeds
Lentil curry
Boiled eggs, sauerkraut, and goat's cheese. Mozzarella. Dark chocolate, of course, with almond milk and heavy cream! Coffee, and rosehip tea with ashwagandha. Electrolytes, D3, and B1.
Absolutely! I'm not sure about the protein value of peanut butter, but it sure is yummy and filling!Quote:

It certainly does contain protein, but just because something contains protein doesn't yet mean we can utilise it. That depends on the specific amino acid profile. Peanuts, like most legumes, are low in methionine, so combining them with, say, eggs, meat or fish, would increase the amount of protein you can utilise by complementing the amino acid profile. Whether that makes for a tasty combination or not is not something I will comment on, though. :DQuote:

Today large bowl of oatmeal with a handful of dried wild plums, wild harvested everlasting pea shoots sauteed in butter, large bowl of sweet potatoes, also covered in butter, small dark chocolate bark with peanut butter, and 6 boiled eggs plus D3, iron, and magnesium.Quote:

I will absolutely eat cilantro as a salad, yum!Quote:

Though now I want chicken satay, darn it!
True, it's not a complete protein source and some are dangerously allergic to the proteins in it.Quote:

Recently, my absolute crazy obsession is tabbouleh, Arabic salad made from parsley, mint, tomatoes, bulgur, lemon and other seasonings. I can't get enough of that thing! :silly:
Dried apricots are good for iron tooQuote:

I will give him credit that he went back and tried it! Also love him, all the doctors are good, but he was the first one I *waited* for and got to watch as episodes were being released, so he has a special place in my heart. Chameleon Circuit did a bunch of songs for his plot line, if you wanna check it out, I even learned one on ukulele.Quote:
