First day of the week, last day of the month. Not sure what that means, but it sounds cool. Probably a busy day, so I'm going to meal plan in advance.
Breakfast:
2 cups kashi crunch cereal
1 cup fat free milk
1 cup blurberries
flax seed oil
Midmorning snack:
1 medium banana
Lunch
2 cups chicken tortilla soup
1 oatmeal raisin cookie
5.3oz icelandic skyr yogurt
Afternoon snack:
1 muscle milk light
Total calories: 1,305
Diet Quality Score: +20
As you can see, I'm going lighter on carbs and heavier on protein. I won't be doing any training on the bike today, so on days off the bike where I won't be burning as many calories it's better to load up on protein. Protein has a higher satiety index, meaning I can feel fuller by eating less. Plus, I don't want to store excess carbs as fat on days when I won't be burning 1,000+ calories of intense cardio.
