Food Friday 28.03.2014

On Food Fridays I will tell you about everything I ate that day. No matter if it is a good day or not: you will see it all. 

Today I had a really simple to-do list: wake up, work out, study, go to sleep. OK, I had some tiny errands that needed to be done as well but in general a boring study day. But I was abnormally hungry all day long hence the BIG portions… Still not understanding what’s going on with my appetite, hunger and eating patterns 😦

 

 

1st meal: 10 AM

Before breakfast I went running and burned around 800 calories. I was so hungry when I got back home and ate the biggest breakfast ever. Still felt hungry. Is that normal?

Post-workout breakfast

  • 2 eggs

  • 2 slices of bacon

  • 2 slices of cheese

  • 300 grams of cabbage

and

  • 10 grams of cocoa

  • a dash of cinnamon

  • 200 grams of ricotta

  • 100 grams of buttermilk/kefir (does anyone know a normal English word for keefir?)

 

2nd meal: 4 PM

A mountain of beans, don’t let the photo fool you.

  • 1 meat patty (125 grams of minced meat, 1/4 of an egg, 65 grams of grated cheese)

  • 400 grams of frozen green beans

  • 5 grams of olive oil  

(About 40 minutes later…)

Protein waffle. Obviously I can’t clean my waffle iron properly 😀

  • 1 egg

  • 25 grams of protein powder

  • 10 grams of olive oil

  • 50 grams of kefir

  • 300 grams of cabbage (not pictured)

Total protein overkill from my protein waffle. Also you can notice quite the bit of carbs…

 

A really weird day. I was hungry all day long. Was this from my run in the morning? Usually I work out in the evenings or around lunchtime. If I had eaten according to my actual hunger level today, I think we would be talking about 3000+ calories. Not normal. Or is it?!

Nike Training Day tomorrow. Ready to burn around 3000 calories or more but also eat more than usually just to survive the whole event. I have to prep 3 meals to take to Tallinn with me and then figure out when I can eat between the 6 classes there. But I’m excited! Bring. It. On!

On Food Fridays I will tell you about everything I ate that day. No matter if it is a good day or not: you will see it all. 

I was up bright and early today and the first thing on my list was a swimming session. After that I ran some errands and did food shopping. All of that caused my breakfast become a brunch which then made all of my eating times move a little.

 

 

1st meal: 10.45 AM

My plate of food + had some extra cauliflower that didn't fit on that photo :)

  • 1 stewed chicken thigh

  • 200 grams of frozen spinach

  • 15 grams of olive oil 

  • 300 grams of raw cauliflower

 

3rd meal: 9.45 PM

I had a triathlon seminar from 6–8.30 PM. I thought since Google Maps showed it was 4K away (actually it was 5 km), I would walk there and back. I managed to get lost on the way but fortunately got to the event 1 minute before the official starting time. But since it took me a while to walk back + I visited Prisma and bought a foam roller (yay!), my last meal ended up being kind of late.

You can buy foam rollers from Prisma. It was called a Pilates roll and cost me 9,95€. The longer version cost 19,95€.

Nutrition information

A good day finally when I didn’t feel like eating everything in my cupboards and fridge although after inserting everything into Lifesum, I realised I burned about 1200 kcal today with all the walking and swimming. It sure doesn’t feel like it 🙂 Oh, and also: I felt so much better after getting a lot of thoughts and support on my recent blog post yesterday. Thank you all for that!
