This chicken... seriously so good! Garlic and herb seasoning on the chicken. Sooooo yummmy.
Susan came over to celebrate the end of the smoothie detox and we had the chicken, 1/2 cup whole wheat pasta and green beans in balsamic dressing.

So it looks like I'm going to be low on protein and fat by the end of the day. I might have veggies and hummus if I get hungry this afternoon. The hummus would be another protein. All in all its pretty hard to get the second serving of dairy (one cheese stick is not a complete serving). 3 servings of protein is hard too. I really need to just start having a protein shake for a snack each day or something. Yesterday I had the protein shake and apple in the car on my way to work, worked out, and then had my yogurt later in the morning. I will keep this up on M, W, F when I have boot camp at work. On non workout days I don't really need the extra calories in the morning...
