Today, I’d like to share a “full day of eats” on a day when I had a staff meeting dinner scheduled. The church that I work at has full staff meetings quarterly and they feed us dinner when we meet. It’s really great! The only struggle is that I don’t know what they will serve until I get there so figuring out my calorie deficit just happens as I go on these kind of days.
Breakfast: Omelette made with 1 egg, 1 egg white, 1 oz ham, .5 slice of pepperjack cheese, and spinach.
~ 150 calories
Lunch: Italian Sandwich made with 1 oz ham, .5 oz salami and pepperoni, .5 tbsp mayo and lettuce on rye bread. (Coke Zero not pictured)
~ 345 calories
Afternoon snack: Oatmilk latte made with 6 oz oatmilk and .5 oz simple syrup
~ 130 calories
Dinner: Chicken + Potatoes + Green Beans + Side Salad with Ranch + Assorted Mini Desserts (0 calorie Fresca not pictured)
~ 1,150 calories
Total calories consumed: 1,775 calories
I did send this dinner picture through an AI generator which helped me to quickly identify the calorie load. I’m talking it took like than 30 seconds.
Using AI in this way has honestly been a game changer in tracking for my calorie deficit. It’s almost effortless at this point to identify and track for my calorie deficit. I’d say it’s been pretty accurate from what I can tell.
