Started out with only whole eggs.. I'm just
at the thought of an egg-white only omelette, mostly since the yolks are what satiates you long-term! But have started doing 2 whole+2 egg white omelettes that also contain
* 10g of shredded coconut
* 1tsp cinnamon
* dash of salt & fruity pepper (pepper w fruit flakes)
* fruit: 1 apple /50g frozen raspberries / banana
This morning I used a banana and am crossing my fingers to not get a snack attack later on today.
This 2 whole + 2 egg white combination proves to be optimal. Few days ago I was lazy and used 3 whole eggs.. too dense. When I have only 1 yolk, it's not having enough substance to tide me over.
Coz' I also don't do gluten I use the shredded coconut to give it more of a pancake like density and lovin' it... This is also my all-time favourite pre-WO meal. When it's a pre-WO meal I will add 25g of raisins as fast carbs (now it's half raisins, half dried cranberries).
How is the one giant meal (OGM , see Jane?_ coming along? All those HOT meals couldn't have been timed any better.. tonight was our first frosty night and with the regular meals I was supposed to be @ 1300-1400 kcal but ended @ 1600 kcal and still had frozen feet.. now it's getting colder I/we (?) just NEED more food. HOT food. Just 1-2 weeks ago I was fine on 1200-1300 on a low kcal day but I swear, my fingers felt frozen all day long and then at night my toes were frozen too... ended up way low on protein though (only 90g) for poor food choices (needing to finish fattier foods) and I guess that bumping up the protein for today will help to stay warm. I've had several winter days that the only way to de-thaw fingers was to eat a protein snack (plus tea).
LOL @ me chatting in here while not participating.. but I suppose I won't be kicked out.
