For breakfast I had a healthy dose of vigorous cardio (2 hours of swim) with a side of two protein shakes. That's basically my usual and lunch is almost always small because to be honest I usually don't have time for a good lunch. But today when I came home from work (Lifeguarding outside for 4-5 hours in the HOT Texas sun) my mom suggested Sonic, yummy :P. I usually don't get a slush but today it was just too darn hot to turn one down. Then for lunch there was pizza at home! You're killing me Mom...
Thankfully dinner was a delicious low carb/fat kinda meal. Zucchini pasta (whaaaaaaaaat???) and Meatballs (my faves). First of all, I love squash. I could have it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Zucchini is absolutely delicious and so versatile. You can put it in brownies, you can grill it, annd you can substitue pasta with it! I know that eating this didn't exactly "balance out" my splurge at lunch but it definitely helped.
Here's a picture of my yummy dinner:
So it's pretty simple to make. Use a peeler to cut the zucchini into thin strips, giving the illusion that they're noodles... Cook your meatballs all the way through and heat sauce with them. Then, sauté the zucchini until soft. Finally, put your zucchini in the bowl and cover with the sauce and meatballs. Grate cheese over the top if your'e feeling fancy then enjoy!
