I felt like I didn’t have 6 mini-meals, but 6 MAJOR meals today! I’m OK with it though, because this morning Eliece and I biked 12 miles and ran 5 miles. We have a triathlon coming up mid-May.
So, before the workout, I doubled my breakfast. 4 Egg whites (with mushrooms) and oatmeal with milk and strawberries. (I think I forgot to take the picture of the oatmeal.- weird!
Then, during the run, I had another EAS bar.
Then, as soon as I got home… I was famished of course. I ate chicken, sweet potato, carrots, and strawberries.
2 hours later, hungry already, I decided to make another one of the protein puddings. Fat free-sugar free pistachio pudding, mixed with 1% milk and 1 scoop protein powder. This is one of the few ways I’ll eat protein powder. I HATE it in oatmeal. I don’t think I could ever drink it mixed with water. But pudding and smoothies are my only way I can stomach it right now.
About 4pm, I ate a whole wheat tortilla with turkey, avocado, lettuce, tomato and fat free cream cheese spread. IT WAS YUMMY!!
And last but not least, another reprise of yesterday’s salad because I loved it so much. I had greens, sliced almonds, chicken (2 tenderloins), strawberries, and olive oil and balsamic vinaigrette.
Then for dessert.. I ate a scoop of peanut butter with chocolate chips.. OOPS.. It was worth it. 
OK, finishing up.. these actually don’t look like big meals. I perceived things way differently while I was eating I guess.

Dear Amy, wow, what a spread! I am jealous of all the delicious food you got to eat today! But you sure earned it! I can’t even imagine doing a triathlon! Scoop of peanut butter with chocolate chips…totally worth it! That is my kind of dessert, right there. Also the oatmeal. I just LOVE oatmeal.
Amy,
super impressed with the triathlon! Wow.
For your pudding smoothie, do you use a whole pkg of pudding for one smoothie? Not a big pistachio fan but mmmm…thinking chocolate (always!)
My friend and I did one last year. We just do the sprint triathlons… 3 mile run. 11 mile bike, and I can never remember how long the swim is.
I whip the three egg whites in a bowl first. I never save the yolks. I would have sooo many yolks, I wouldn’t even know what to do with them all.
Glad to see you’re back to your old self
A tri-athlon! Awesome! Have you done one before? When you cook your egg whites, do you whisk them together then cook? Or? Do you save the yolks for anything?
Totally impressed.
