Ben's Food 8/16/13

Brief interruption to the regular fitness posts to share what I ate today. Myriah's paleo blog inspired me to take pictures of my meals. This is the only time I will do this.

Breakfast at 6:45 a.m. 2 eggs scrambled with 2 tablespoons salsa and 2 tablespoons guacamole. 1 banana, 1/2 cup blueberries, 1/2 cup cherries. 1 glass water, 1 mug of Thai Green Tea (green tea with coconut, ginger & vanilla).

At about 9:45 a.m. I ate a Balance Bar in the car on my way to a meeting. 

Lunch at 1:00 p.m. 1 large salad with mixed greens, spinach, cucumbers, tomatoes, green peppers, carrots, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, ground flax seeds, and EVOO/Balsamic mix. Handful of Triscuit crackers with Edamame hummus. 1/2 cup cherries. 1 glass of water, 1 mug of Japanese Green Tea.

At about 4:30 p.m. I ate a banana with peanut butter as a pre-workout snack.

Post-workout VegaOne Shake with 5mg Creatine at about 6 p.m. And lots of water...

Dinner around 7 p.m. I had leftover lentil stir-fry with squash, zucchini, onions, and mushrooms (couldn't finish it all), 1 peach, 1 glass of water, 1 mug of Japanese Green Tea.

I don't usually snack after dinner but if I do it will be an apple or some almonds.
