Day 1 MFF Lunch and Snack


This is My Fit Foods' Lemon Turkey lunch.  The ingredients list shows:  ground turkey, parboiled rice, asparagus, lemon, lemon juice, butter (cream), natural spices.  As you can see, the asparagus was carefully counted out.  I don't know if it's supposed to be part of the meal or a garnish.  Ditto with the lemon.  The only thing I didn't eat was the lemon peel.  These containers are barely an inch tall, so it's not a lot of food.  This container claims to have 220 calories--the food contained in it, that is.  It was another very spicy meal.  And, it was surprisingly salty--didn't expect that.  Breakfast would have benefitted from a little more salt, lunch a little less.

My morning snack was a bar, Oatmega 3 Wellness Bar by Boundless Nutrition (Austin TX).  The package claims it is "The "Sweetest" way to get fish oil!"  Good thing I read that now and not before I ate it!  Snack this afternoon appears to be chunked chicken, red grapes, walnuts, apple slice, orange slice, and grapefruit chunk.  Gotta wait 2-1/2 hrs for that one.

I'm making good progress on my water consumption.  Over halfway.  At the grocery store today they had Sparkling Ice on sale and in flavors I hadn't seen before.  Grapefruit?!?!  Are you kidding me?  First small dose of willpower to pass on that.  I was a little hungry before my lunch, but not for long.  Had another dose of tears getting down my vitamins.  Will it ever get easier???  Thankfully there have been no fish burps.  I have avoided fish oil for that reason alone.  Maybe all the spicy food is to cover them up?
