10-22-2011 Breakfast

Today I start with my "Awareness Eating" for those who are afraid of these two words "calorie counting.". To help me through this process, I purchased an app by "livestrong.com" on my iPhone and Nike+GPS .

Livestrong app has a wide variety of food list and their caloric value and tracks your daily consumption. you set your goals and it tells you how much more you may and can consume each day. Fantastic app.
Nike+gps tracks your exercise and gives you an estimate of how much calories you burned of course based on your height weight and type of exercise. You can then input this into your "Livestrong app"

That's basically how I do it and how I intend to go about loosing the approx 15-20 lbs I had gained back during some very stressful times.

BREAKFAST

Mini Thin wheat- 2 servings = 50 cal each= 100 cal
2 slices of bacon (microwaved then paper toweled the remaining fat) 129 cal each
2 teaspoon of Mayonnaise (yes mayonnaise) 15 each= 30 cal
2 Teaspoon del Monte sweet pickle relish approx 6.5 cal each= 13 cal
Greens, tomato and onion - negligible- like2 cal each

BREAKFAST TOTAL = 272 Cal and I'm full . Abnove made two mini sandwiches, like a bacon slider

All these can be calculated for you by your Livestrong app or any calorie counter you would prefer





I had two of this , very filling especially with lots of "filler fibers greens.

FYI'S

PREMIUN SLICED BACON- RALEY'S
MAYONNAISE - BEST FOOD
SWEET PICKLE RELISH - DEL MONTE
JALAPENO SLICES- MT- OLIVE

FINDING YOUR PRODUCTS THAT SUIT YOUR TASTE BUDS IS A KEY TO ENJOYING THIS EATING HABITS.
BE CREATIVE

(I try to spice it up a little with either sliced jalapeno peppers or with a dsah of cayenne pepper)
