Be aware they are 91 cal per half roll and 527 cal for the whole appetizer. But I ate them at BJs Brewery

Wow! They grow up fast!

Jaren...I hear you..it doesn't stop me from going out at all...I went out to lunch today with friends (old co-workers) and it was fun and not only that I ate very well.....and I was glad I had done my workout this morning.

Even better yet...I've been keeping myself busy.. yesterday it was so nice I took a walk ...about 82....haven't been on FB either..for today and most of yesterday. I cleaned....that keeps me busy as well...LOL ! So far, it makes me feel better...for now...and is trying to organize my closets...lol

i really do think i need to start adding more into my diet. after my school semester ends in about 3 weeks i am going to be adding in 2 protein shakes a day. starting around 7am-8am with working out through out the entire day.

bunny, i like your ideas! any other things you have on the usual?

what is everyones take on carbs, sodium and sugars? i am not sure how much i should be having.

also does anyone else snack on beef or turkey jerkey? I just started but only very little at a time because of the sodium! the rest seems good though, 3g carb 3g sugar 1g fat 80 calories 15g protein in a serving but 560-700g sodium

Keeping yourself busy definitely helps, all those little calories here and there add up! You're doing great Jo! Its all that new found energy youre creating!

Protein shakes are easy and great! I just can't stand the texture. Lol. I can barely gulp down the gladiator from Smoothie King lol.

Your body needs carbs, ESPECIALLY in the morning. Its what feeds your brain and gets it started for the day. Just don't eat too much and try to eat most of them before lunch. Sodium I have cut most of it out. I dont eat alot of processed food which contains alot of sodium and I dont add salt to anything. I use alot of other spices like cayenne, garlic pepper, chilli powder...

I have a friend that eats beef jerky as a snack but she eats organic cause it has less sodium and such... But I know organic can be expensive.

[camaroitalia]

yeah processed foods def contain a lot of sodium! I try not to as well.
tomorrow morning i am thinking
8am Protein shake

10am 2.75-3 mile run each way to Subway and try the oven roasted chicken salad. I built it on there website coming out to 120 calories 3g fat 9g carb 350g sodium and 16g protein. Figure I can work off my breakfast running there, then work off my lunch running back.

Not to sure on the rest of the day lol since I know I will be having my major cheat night late, only doing it as a celebration for recieving an award for College. Sucks were going to my favorite place afterwards :(

[bossbunny]

Spent two hours in the gym yesterday... Holy crap am I sore! I worked myself so hard I dozed off in my night classes hahahaha!

Hi all. Just checking in on everyone. Keep up the good work.

I've been seeing some posts on eating suggestions so thought I'd post this. In the summer time I don't usually have time to make breakfast so I keep these in the freezer for breakfast on the run or for a quick meal. They are high protein panckakes. They are a well balanced meal and excellent for a fat burning muscle building diet. I usually double the protein 2- scoops and break them in half if I'm cutting and waching cals.
