Today I ate a very light breakfast as I have tried out a new yogurt (didn’t like it) and forgot to eat my fruit (made up for it at dinner). Lunch was pork tenderloin leftover from the weekend with brown rice and veggies. It was pretty funny when someone at work commented on my “gourmet lunch” little did he know it was Uncle Ben’s 90 second brown rice and frozen vegetables that I steamed in about 3 minutes in the microwave. Thrown in the paper plate and plasticware and you got a real gourmet lunch, no doubt.
For dinner, my wife made one of her specialties; pork chops in a mushroom paprika cream sauce. I had to do the entire math on the whole meal just to figure out how many calories there are in it. The worst part of the meal is the 1 cup of light sour cream she used in the sauce, the tablespoon of oil to sear the chops and the 2 tablespoons of flour to thicken up the sauce. Otherwise it was a pretty lean meal. I only had 3.5 oz of it plus 1oz of sauce so I managed to control my calories. We usually eat it with pasta or spatzle but today I ate it with brown rice and steamed veggies. I was going to pour the sauce over green beans but we were out of those so I had to make do with broccoli and cauliflower. Tomorrow I’ll pur it over green beans though for lunch.
