I had coffee and a banana for breakfast.

For lunch, I'm having butter lettuce wraps with lean ham, a bit of cheese, and some mustard.

I will have edemmame for a snack.

Dinner is stuffed cabbage (cabbage, a bit of brown rice, lean hamburger, and bell pepper topped with a tomato and sour cream sauce (just a tiny bit of sour cream in the sauce) with chopped apples sprinkled on top.) I eat just one of those.

I usually have the same thing for breakfast every day. I eat a lot of salads, lettuce wraps, Vietnamese salad rolls, light soups with lots of veggies, sirlion steak with a light marinade and roasted veggies etc... For snacks, I eat veggie sticks with a low fat yogurt ranch, edemmame, fruit, and on occasion chips with100 calorie pack of guacamole.

If I go out, it is usually to get a veggie and black bean bowl at Chipotle. I eat 1/2 and save the other 1/2 for the next day. Sometimes I have Wendy's chili.

1 tablespoon of refriend beans

Interesting..I can't find a good organge protein shake that I like.

I'd also like a good raspberry one if anyone knows.

I used NOW Sports unflavored whey protein and mixed it with Trop 50 orange juice (to keep the calories lower than with standard oj, which has lots of sugar) in my blender. It tasted like a super-orangey Orange Julius!
