Then at work around 10:00 I like my yogurt. I wish it was a little more filling, but it's manageable. Lunch around 1:00. The rest of the afternoon is a challenge. I need a snack about 4:00, but on Monday I won't get home til 10:00pm and Wed/Fri til 7:00. This is where leftovers can come in handy.
Tues and Thurs - 6:00 breakfast I like the Active Lifestyle instant oatmeal -
170 cal 8g Protein 28G carbs 3.5 fat. I have added a banana or sometimes more raisins. I don't think this is a terrible choice, but I need to balance the carbs out somewhere else. Mid morning and lunch stay about the same as other days. Again I'm challenged in the late afternoon and evenings. Tues I'm home at 7:00 and Thurs 10:00pm.
I need a balance of cooking and grab it and go food. Suggestions GREATLY appreciated. |
Ok. It would be good if you could drink your shake about 20 min before your boot camp, if not that's fine. It seems the yogurt is a staple in your diet which is great , I've mentioned this before but try this, take with you your yogurt, take a quarter cup of a whole grain cereal, I use Fiber One Original, it has a decent ingredient list but any without added sugars, HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP or anything hydrogenated. That eliminates most of what is on your grocery stores shelf, lol a quarter scoop of vanilla protein powder and a quarter cup blueberries or strawberries.This will make your yogurt a meal. It has a good amount of protein, berries, excellent source of antioxidans, complex carbs (ceriel) and fiber. Mix it all together when you're ready to eat and it will keep you full for a while and is perfect for an early day meal. If you look closely at your diet, you will notice that up untill 1:00 pm you have not eaten any complex carbs, it is better to eat them earlier in the day so the above recipie takes care of that as well.
