How to Stick to Your Diet While on Vacation (Blog Series) - Day 3

Day 3:

First day actually on vacation, going to try really hard to hit things perfectly today! So far the challenge has been keeping fat low and getting some carbs in me, so I'll have to keep that in mind!

Breakfast:

2 Slices of Nature's Own "Butter Bread"

24g Carbs

1g Fat

6g Protein

120 Calories

2 Tbsp Jif Peanut Butter

8g Carbs

16g Fat

7g Protein 

Normally, like I have said previously, I have protein in the morning and try to keep carbs low, but I have noticed having protein is super easy, so I decided to try to have some carbs. The bread we got is actually pretty low in everything though, so it is kind of nice because I don't eat my days worth of carbs in one meal!

Lunch:

Angus Beef Hotdog 

2g Carbs

15g Fat

6g Protein

170 Calories

Hot Dog Bun

24g Carbs

1.5g Fat

4g Protein

120 Calories

Ketchup

5g Carbs

0g Fat

0.3 Protein

20 Calories

Orange

17.6g Carbs

0.2g Fat

1.3g Protein

69 Calories

Fiber One Coconut Almond Bar

17g Carbs

7g Fat

6g Protein 

140 Calories

Kind of screwed myself for later with the hot dog because of the fat, but overall I am okay with how the day has gone. I am unsure of where we will be eating later, but hopefully I can eat something decently healthy with lots of protein! But of course I always have backups like my protein powder that I brought with me, so all in all I'll be fine! And still have to get my workout in which will also get me feeling a lot better!

Dinner:

Roasted Garlic Rosemary Chicken w/ Potatoes & Spinach
30g Carbs
20g Fat
62g Protein
540 Calories

1/2 Garden Fresh Salad
5.5g Carbs
5 Fat
1 Protein
75 Calories

11/2 Breadstick
37.5g Carbs
3.8 Fat
6g Protein
210 Calories

We went to Olive Garden for dinner, since my lunch was full of fat, I looked up the menu in advance to make sure what I got would be lower in fat. I think I picked a really good entree and the breadsticks were surprisingly low in fat as well which was really nice!

(Sorry a bit late with this one, internet was down for a couple days)

Final Macros for the Day:

171 Carbs
69 Fat
100 Protein

Pretty much almost hit everything dead on, but a little under protein unfortunately! Still having troubles with fiber, but just have to keep working on it, bought some frozen broccoli and fruit, hopefully that'll help!
