Love the spice info Keith. I use most of these spices regularly, especially cinnamon.

D: Hot italian sausage in pasta sauce, garden salad

S: Maybe another GY

Vits: Out. Roads are preventing me from getting to the store. 

Liquids: Behind.

Exercise: Nada. Storm yesterday kept me out of work and had to make up the hours today. I'm sick of this weather bull**** 

Thanks Keith for the spice info!!! I use cinnamon and black pepper. Didn't know if CAYENNE was save for us!!! I am going to FOR SURE get back to use that one....

B: 2 oz of chili

S: nuts.....

L: Mostly collard greens but about 2 oz of chicken and sliced turkey

S: more NUTS.... About to get in a Pure Protein drink with CINNAMON

D: hmmm no clue.....

S: Maybe another protein drink

Ex: Work out session with the trainer. Last night I was able to get in 6 miles with the bike on level 8.

I have been using cayenne and all hot peppers (which are also super beneficial as they all have capscasin.

Here we go!

B: piece of my frittata - expect this to be my breakfast all week lol

L: leftover balsamic chicken with mushrooms and roasted brussel sprouts

S: 1 tbs sabra roasted red pepper hummus with cucumber slices and baby bell peppers

S2: going to a doctor's appt after work and then the gym, might be a while before I get to eat.  Having an emergency south beach bar - not the best but I wasn't prepared!

D: gardenburger with a 100 cal pack of wholly guacamole and a side salad...maybe some other veggie thrown in there - not sure

S: wondering if having an after dinner/pre bedtime snack of a protein shake is a good idea - thoughts keith? I usually crave sweet at night.

Fluid: need more - way more

Vits: taking now!

X: weight lifting at the gym with hubz tonight ughhh (he's really annoying) lol

I have one every night. I either have greek yogurt with sugar free jelly or other flavoring or a casein protein shake. Whey is ok too but casein digests slower. Check out my casein ice cream recipe posted in the forum, thats a good bedtime snack too and you can make it with whey as well. I would do it about 30 mins before bedtime, especially on workout days!

thanks Keith, I wrote on that post too lol
