TamCam pics day 2

Another good day. I had dinner out with a friend, but ate accordingly all day to have a good allotment of calories left for dinner. There really is no way I can quantify my dinner calories - I took pictures and I've estimated a calorie total of the meal that I think is probably over what I ate. Rather guesstimate too much than not enough. And though I won't be eating another bite tonight, I definitely could. Were it not for the TamCam project, I'd be grazing within the hour!

Breakfast: one hard boiled egg mixed with 1/2 cup 1% fat cottage cheese and a squirt of yellow mustard, 1/2 grapefruit - 219 calories

Lunch - 1 1/2 carrots, 2/3 roma tomato, 1 TJoe's chicken sausage with 1 cup roasted broccoli and zucchini - 260 calories


3 p.m. snack before walk: 1 medium banana with 1/2 cup TJoes non fat Gr. Yogurt 160 calories


Restaurant meal - 2 small slices of Italian bread dipped in marinara sauce; I definitely should have stopped at 1 piece 'cuz it wasn't that good. They look like huge pieces in the pic, but were actually very small. Honest! - 100 cal.


Entree - 5 oz blackened salmon with mesclun greens, sliced red onion, few sliced black olives, few tomato wedges, mango salsa, with 2 tsp balsamic vinaigrette - AWESOME - I ate every bite of this - calorie estimate 500 cal.


1 cup Chobani Strawberry - probably should have left this out, but needed wanted "dessert" - 140 calories


Total calorie estimate for the day - 1439 - again I believe the actual total is between 1400 and 1500. Now I'm finished eating for the night because my camera battery is out of juice and if I can't photograph it, I'm not eating it!

On the drive home, it was raining while the sun was shining. You know what that means...a rainbow! In fact, a double, but I doubt the lighter one will show on the pics. The lighting at the time was surreal:





Sorry the pics are pretty similar - hey, if one's good, three are better! Have a good night.
