Breakfast:
1/2 cup Garden Veggie Egg Beaters
Lunch: (I don't typically snack in between breakfast and lunch)
2 cups split pea soup
12 oz. skim milk
Snack:
Lean turkey slice and lettuce on a whole wheat tortilla
Dinner:
Steamed fish with homemade pineapple-tomato salsa
6 oz. baked potato
Snack: In-shell peanuts, which I forgot to record!
Totals:
1048 calories (plus the cals from the peanuts, probably around 300 since 1/2 cup is 160 and I KNOW I ate more than that)
35% protein (not including the nuts)
56% carbs
9% fat (there I go again with very little fat, it's just a normal thing for me to eat lowfat foods) and 2% of that was saturated.
So altogether I probably had about 1300-1350 calories, which is about where I want it. I'm 'allowed' 1600 but I try and keep it under 1500.
I look at my numbers and it's amazing to me how many carbs I'm still getting (mostly from beans, peas and whole grains - it's rare I eat potatoes) and I've pretty much eliminated rice, pasta and white breads. So I know I'm getting GOOD carbs, but I still get quite a bit. Which shows me that before I started all of this, I was probably getting a boatload of carbs every day because I was a serious pasta junkie.

I love them. I found 2 new flavors, the Garden Veggie and Southwestern. I haven't tried the Southwestern yet.

So, they are like egg scramblers in a carton? Something you can cook in the micro?

Hm, never tried it in the microwave, but I don't see why not. I've scrambled eggs in the microwave before.
Egg Beaters are eggs for people who want to watch their cholesterol. They're real eggs, just no yolks. I really like them.

Um ... let me think. When I'm on nights my meals aren't quite as square as normal. All in all I think I had scrambled eggs with textured vegetable protein flavoured with bacon bits, sliced cucumber, peanut butter on celery (lots of peanut butter), corn chips and cheese, a plate of crunchy raw vegetables, a couple of oatmeal cookies and a salad. Sounds messy but night shift is.
Somewhere round about 1200 cals as I recall.
