Fit Fridays: Eat With Me

Come and eat with me!  I aim to eat about 1375 calories/day, but because baby J. likes a 4am snack, I think I have a little more wiggle room.  I try to be very aware of what I eat, but not freak out about going over.  When I am actively trying to get to a certain weight, though, I track every calorie that enters in my mouth.  So, here's a regular old day of what I eat:

Breakfast:  The Fitnessista's Breakfast Cookie Cereal.  I topped it with about 1/4 cup of homemade applesauce and 2T dried blueberries.  318 calories and super delicious

Mid Morning Snack:  I split an apple dipped into honey roasted almond butter with M.   I ate most of the apple, M. ate most of the almond butter. About 100 calories and about time to get some more almond butter. 

Lunch:  Whole Wheat Tortilla topped with spinach, broccoli slaw, cucumbers, one whole hard boiled egg and two whites, and 1/5 avocado.  I top it with some red pepper flakes and yum-o!  I stuff these so full they never wrap up.  I estimated this to be about 285 calories.

Afternoon Snack that I forgot to take a picture of:  a Coconut Chocolate Luna Bar and an orange.  260 calories.

Dinner:  Cilantro Lime Chicken with Black Beans over brown rice.  I added salsa and hummus to the top.  I used myfitnesspal.com to calculate the calories - 394.

That totals up to 1357 for the day. Just under enough to not feel guilty for the sweedish fish that I am sure were popped in my mouth sometime during the day!    I am not aiming for perfection here,  just to make good decisions about what goes into my body.  So, that is a typical day - what do you think?
