LOCKED TOPIC

Teens: what did YOU eat today?

I'm kind of copying the oh so popular topic found in the food forum. This is different, though: for teens! I think it's pretty interesting to see what we teenagers eat, and this will kind of give the chance for teens to see what other healthy foods they can add to their diet.. I sure know that my diet needs improvement XD

Oh, and the same rules as the one in the other forum applies.. especially do not post if you are not eating enough. Nobody wants to see it, and you're only hurting yourself in the long run; believe me, I found out the hard way.

I'll start!
breakfast: cheerios, a yogurt, & and orange
lunch: a turkey sandwich (i love low carb bread! really.) an apple, another yogurt, &wheat thins
after school: a peanut butter sandwhich on whole grain & an orange
dinner: probably light soup & a salad or something!

don't be shy XD

4hgirl-  Fage is the most amazing greek yogurt in the world! Greek yogurt is like strained yogurt... so it's thick and creamy. It tastes a little..tart...so you have to add sweetner or maybe fruit or something.   The Fage 0% is fat free, 90 calories, and 15 whopping grams of protein! The Fage 2% obviously isn't fat free and has 130 calories i think? There's also a full fat kind too....and some varieties come with fruity stuff attatched to the side of the cup! Its REALLY good. i LOVE it. You can get it in the yogurt isle.

       &nb sp; (Isn't 4H a horse club? like the pony club? Do you ride?)

Breakfast: 1/4 cup (2 servings) hemp protein

Dinner: 16 Oz. Mock Tender Steak

handful of peanut M&Ms

Two Slices of pizza.

That's around 3500, which is what I need to gain about a pound a week.  I was on the go, so I didn't have my usual stockpile of broccoli, spinach, and mushrooms.

Personally, I get a lot of GI discomfort when I eat starchy/sugary foods.  I've been trying to eat more carbs and less protein, but I bloat up like nothing else.  The left side of my stomach (where the descending colon is) sticks out half an inch in front of my right on some days.  

Ok so i just weighed myself for the first time in 2 weeks and have dropped 3 pounds! HONESTLY unintentionally. I need to boost my calories extra to gain it back!

Lunch: leftover eggplant parm with some sauteed asparagus
