A Very Good CRON Day

I haven't had a report from CoM as good as this in a while and I am surprised, both at the nutrition and how low the calories are now I've entered everything and totalled it up. They are probably a bit higher in reality because breakfast #1 was estimated and it's impossible to make hummus without licking the spoon (or maybe that's just me).

Breakfast #1: melon, blueberries, Total 0%, wheatgerm, almonds, pumpkin seeeds, flax seeds
Breakfast #2: grapenuts and museli flakes with 1 tsp LLBY and warm soya milk; 1 boiled egg, one boiled egg without the yolk.

Lunch: salad of pak-choi, spinach, peas, asparagus, green pepper and mushrooms with cottage cheese and LLBY and flax oil; baked butternut squash with cinnamon

Dinner: Romaine lettuce wraps with homemade hummus (with extra pumpkin, sunflower and flaxseeds blended in) with chopped raw zucchini, tomato and mint (this was yummy); steamed broccoli and the rest of the zucchini.

It felt like loads but actually it doesn't look like much now I write it down. I'll probably have some strawberries and a few nuts or something as a dessert later on.

Here's the crunch.

It's amazing what all those leafy greens can do for you, isn't it? So filling and so filled with nutrition.

Yay for you having a good day, you deserve it after last week.
