the recipe came out good. If trying, I would only lightly fry, do not make to dark and crispy. And, I would definitely add more spices. I'm sure the better crap meat would make a huge difference too, but I used the canned kind (real crab though not imitation.)

meal plan coming for next week
AND I PROMISE A MEAL PLAN FOR NEXT WEEK - MOST LIKELY LOTS OF SALADS AND CHICKEN DISHES
Snack Time!
Yes, I know this looks super boring, BUT it was filling and satisfying and gave me some energy to get through my afternoon slump. A candy bar may taste good, some crackers good to nibble, but they will lead you to a sugar crash and a fat stomach/back/ass (whatever your problem are is - you know it will go right there!)
Today's food
For breakfast, I had a pure protein bar peanut butter flavor. (20g protein).
Lunch was leftover calamari salad - calamari, celery, red pepper, red onion, oil & vinegar dressing, and I put this over field greens, and added black olives.
My snack will be 3 hard boiled omega 3 eggs with 85g of thin string beans with like 1/3 tbsp pasture butter.
Dinner post to follow when I figure out what it is.
*If I have time, there may be a secondary workout tonight.

Last Night
Last night's dinner was meatloaf that my husband made (ingredients ground beef & pork, cheese, tiny bit of bread crumbs (I wouldnt of used them!), an egg, onion, tomatoes stuffed in the middle, and salt, pepper, oregano) and some corn on the side.
I didn't make it to the gym because unfortunately, I didn't get home until 7pm and by that time it was time to get the kids ready for bed.

Boring and Bad Since I am Lacking Vegetables
When I am unprepared, I often lack my vegetables. I really need to fix this with some better shopping and weekend prep, but since I spent my weekend digging that didn't happen. ugh
Breakfast: tea w/ half and half and 3 hard boiled eggs
Lunch: Can of tuna with a lot of onion and some sundried tomatoes and olive oil mayo in between 4 pieces of romaine lettuce (2 "sandwiches)
My snack unfortunately will likely be a protein bar on my way between work and BJs to pick up diapers and formula before heading to the gym for my workout.

Lunch
I was totally unprepared for today. I was supposed to be gone all day, but instead my plans were cancelled and I was at the office - with no food. So, breakfast was a protein bar and a tea with half and half. And lunch - mixed greens, grilled chicken, black olives, broccoli, sundried tomatoes, red onions and balsamic dressing with an unsweetened iced tea with a squeeze of a lemon from Saladworks. Then I snacked on some almonds and peanuts I found in the office kitchen around 3pm because I was starving.
My regular workouts will resume tomorrow
I will resume my regular, every other day, full body workout's tomorrow. I think they are the best for me, although it was fun bonding with my husband and not working out alone.
Las't night's dinner
So, yesterday I didn't go to the gym, BUT I spent about 4 hours putting dirt and rocks/concrete into a 5 gallon bucket, then carrying this 5 gallon bucket (weighing about the same as me) up a flight of stairs, then dumping it into a wheel barrel, and then after about 5 buckets full or so pushing this wheel barrel across an acre slightly uphill to dump. I think this was the hardest "workout" I've ever had lol. (We're installing drains and a sump pump in my basement if you are wondering WHY I would be doing this). So, after this adventure we ordered a pizza! and now I'm bloated lol. I don't know why I don't learn that my body does NOT like wheat.

Last nights dinner and todays lunch
I used this recipe: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/giada-de-laurentiis/chicken-cacciatore-recipe/index.html except I only used a teeny tiny bit of brown rice flour instead of regular flour. You can make it without too. It came out good. It wasn't really our flavor meal. In my opinion it took too long to make for what it is.
