Turkey Meatloaf & Roasted Broccoli

Ok, this is another time I deserve props.  I had to eat my (admittedly small) serving of broccoli fast.  It was all I could do not to gag in front of the kids.  My husband likes broccoli & said it was delicious, as do all of the recipe reviewers. I'm just a big kid.

Lunch time!

Today, my breakfast took a lot of my calories (400 so on a 1200 day goal, that's 33%!).

I am glad I didn't stop for coffee after an awesome workout (although I did think about it).

Today, I actually had double the crackers & laughing cow shown here.  I was hungry ;)

On the topic of exercise, I had a big accomplishment!  I was able to do a portion of our RIPPED workout for the first time since I started about a year ago.  Push up, brazillian kick, under the bridge.  I did the first 2 reps without going to my knees.  I am getting STRONG, not just skinny & it feels great!!!

Clean eating stuffed peppers

Ok, I need some replies & love for not only making this but also eating it!!!

Ok, so it wasn't 100% clean, but I had to try the cheese (it was WW Mexican blend). I should have just left it off because it didn't add anything flavor wise.  

Cals: 402

Used coconut oil as the spray for the pan.  Will definitely make these again!!!

Based off of this recipe but adjusted some (no squash, tomato paste instead of tomatoes, onion powder in place of onion).

Pork BBQ Baked Potato

Lunch today is leftover BBQ pork tenderloin with baked potatoes & a little cheddar cheese.

I recently bought a food scale to make sure I what I was eating was what I thought I was eating & to make accountability easier.

Shown here is a 499 calorie lunch- higher than I normally eat, but should keep me full till dinner!
