Strict Paleo/Zone Day #1

Fail To Plan, Plan To Fail

I didn’t fail, per se, but I did forget to ensure that I had the food that I needed at work. I stayed clean and paleo, but I under ate, especially protein.

My plan is linked above, but just for the record, I’m basically doing a 21 block zone with a bit of rearranging for PWO.

What I Ate

Pre-Workout

  • 6 strawberries
  • 1 egg

Breakfast

  • 1 apple
  • 3 eggs

Snack

  • 15 almonds

Lunch

  • ~ 3oz salmon “burger” w/ greens and balsamic vinaigrette at Fiamma Burger (the burger is made from scratch out of actual salmon—not a manufactured patty

Snack

  • 20 almonds
  • dried mango (kindof a lot)

Dinner

  • 15 almonds
  • chicken (5 tenders)
  • 2 cups cucumber
  • 2 cups broccoli

According to my magic iPhone software that tracks my calories and macro-nutrient ratios, I’m at 1480 calories, 60g of fat, 135g of cho and 100g of protein. Zone ratios aren’t perfect, but close (I know, I know, each meal). I may hit a late-evening high-protein snack later and maybe a few berries. If so, I’ll note it tomorrow.
