Full Day of Eats: Ramen Lunch

Today, I bring you another example of what I ate when I was treated to lunch at work! This past week we began a huge database transition at work. I was part of the core team, building a lot of what is needed for the initial roll over, so we were treated extra well during that time. 

Breakfast: Premier Protein (you know what that looks like)

Lunch: Thai Basil Chicken Stir Fry - this was SO good!

One area of growth that I’d love to point out is that when something like this would happen - ordering out unexpectedly - it sometimes would mean my entire day would be “blown” because I wouldn’t know how to track it, or how many calories were in it. This would sometimes become an excuse for giving up. This hasn’t been the case for a while. Instead, I give it my best estimate (nowadays with AI’s help) and call it good. I considered lunch to be about 1,000 calories.

Before school pick up, I had a little snack.

Since I worked in-office, again, my steps were only at 1,800 when I went to pick up Piper from school. It was a beautiful afternoon, so we both snuck in a walk which helped out my step count and was just some really good quality time for the two of us.


For dinner, we decided to roast hot dogs and ate Carmel corn as a treat. It was another beautiful Fall evening!


We have been truly spoiled with these beautiful Fall days and I’m so glad that we’ve been able to take advantage of them the best we can, usually by sitting around the fire together or going for a walk before it gets dark out.

The day ended around 1,850 calories, and I’m happy with that!
