I accidentally erased my breakfast pics! They were spicy oats with a fried egg: 355 calories, 28 carbs, 19 fat and 19 protein. I had every intention of hitting the gym hard at lunch today, but I forgot about a work luncheon! It ended up being sandwiches and salad – not too bad, except for some odd reason after I ate 1/2 of a sandwich and a bit of salad . . . I went back and ate another half of sandwich!
I didn’t need it, I was full, but for whatever reason, I ate it. I felt so full all afternoon! I have to start eating intuitively – had I waited 20 minutes after the first round, I never would have picked up the second sammie. 🙁
To make it worse, on the second sammie, I just ate the insides and put the bread to the side!
I am guestimating the calories on this – it may have been 100 calories more?
Luckily dinner was solved – Tony took the reigns! I sometimes forget what a great cook Tony is because I am usually the one hogging the kitchen! Tonight was Pure Man Food! He got a great deal on t-bone steaks – three giant steaks for only $9!
It’s supposed to be very warm in the midwest this weekend – tonight was no exception. Probably around 60 degrees! So even though it was dark out, that didn’t stop Tony from grilling! :D The grill was screaming hot when he put the steaks on!
And he also made seasoned baked potatoes in the oven. He rubbed them with a little olive oil, coarse salt and pepper and baked them at 450 in a cast iron skillet – I loved the fact that the skin touching the skillet was nice and crispy, while the inside was fluffy! :D Below is my steak – I didn’t eat it all! I had about 4 ounces of the meat and half of my baked potato. The steak was a perfect medium rare and so juicy!
Dinner came in at 355 calories, 32 carbs, 11 fat and 31 protein. So when I look at my stats for the day, it isn’t too bad, but I need to include more fruits and veggies into my diet, as well as more complex carbs. I am footloose and fancy free for several hours on Sunday, so a good grocery shop will be in order! 😀
Stats for the Day
- 1342 calories
- 52 fat

- 79 protein
- 12 fiber (another thing to bump up!)
- no exercise
We are just about to watch a documentary about Mike Tyson. He is so crazy! Tony was actually at the fight where he bit off the ear of Evander Holyfield!
Have a safe Friday night all – see you tomorrow night! 😀
Steak YUMMY! One of my favorite meals in the summer time. My hubby doesn’t bbq in the winter, he’s a wimp 🙂
I’m about to watch Food inc. i think I may regret it !
i LOVE man food, sometimes i feel a little cheated whenever i’m eating a salad and my guy is eating steaks and pizzas, lol!
mike tyson is crazy! i can’t believe tony was at that fight, what a memory!
OK – what are spicy oats? I need to see this!
Ha! 1/2 cup cooked oatmeal, 1/2 ounce mozzarella cheese, 2 pieces of bacon, a fried egg, all spiked with Frank’s red hot sauce!
Best oats ever!
LOL…got your comment…
NO EXCUSE NOPE!!!
Mike Tyson is NUTS.
Your ‘man food’ looks delicious – sometimes steak & potatoes are the perfect dinner!
I never knew that Tony was at that fight?
I don’t like the tatoos on his face (Mike Tyson…not Tony!)
Those steaks look amazing. My husband is actually a better cook than me and taught me a lot of what I know. I hog the kitchen now because he has created the Mom on the Run monster.
That t-bone steak looks awesome!
Ohhhhh yum that salad looks delicious, as does Tony’s perfectly cooked steak.
How cool Tony was at the fight! Does he still have his ticket!!??
I also have semi-loose plans to check out grocery stores this weekend. I’ve never been to an Aldi before (we don’t have them back home) so I want to go in and check out some of the prices to see about switching some of our shopping to over there. They just opened a new one right across the street from our regular grocery store so it wouldn’t be too inconvenient for multiple trips, now.
My sister loves Aldi! That’s where I buy cheese sometimes too – I bought a dill havarti there for like $1.99!
Yum, the Man Food looks so good!!!
How bizarre that Tony actually witnessed the ear-biting incident!
