After bootcamp last night, I was pretty beat. We were also pet sitting for the evening and my dog plus his little friend is just insane. They require supervision at all times so I just didn’t end up making what I was supposed to have for dinner (which I cannot remember what it was supposed to be at this current time). So, it being a “no carb” day, I ended up with lettuce wraps. In each leaf of romaine, I put two slices of turkey breast, one wedge of Laughing Cow light cheese, and a tablespoon of this spinach and artichoke dip (NOT the creamy kind). I didn’t like the dip. It kind of ruined the whole thing but I was starving so I ate them. They LOOKED really good though:

Ah, whatever. They were satisfying and I wasn’t hungry any more. However, I did not realize that lettuce, cheese, the dip, and even the turkey all had carbs. I ended up with 23 grams for the day on what was supposed to be a “zero carb” day. But honestly, 23 grams compared to a usual of 150+ might as well be zero. I do have to figure out how to cram more protein in there. I snacked on edamame on the way to class which I thought would help but it really only boosted it by 6 grams.

Today’s totals: 74g protein (SO not enough), 23g carbs (too many!) and 1,055 calories (DEFINITELY not enough). Gotta work on these “no carb” days.
