Day One of Fourteen

Monday I started "14 days of supercharged meals." I thought that I would share some of the meals with you.  I have decided that I really don't like vegetables all that well.  Maybe I will acquire a taste for them.  Breakfast was spinach and eggs cooked in coconut oil with a small tomato. I tried to make an omelet but it ended up more like scrambled eggs.

The lunchtime salad included 4 ounces of cooked salmon, a cup of vegetables, and it was supposed to have chick peas but I couldn't find any so I used the alternative of kidney beans.

Lunch with Salmon
The afternoon snack was 4 ounces of white meat with a cup of cooked broccoli an 1/2 cup cooked sweet potatoes.  No it is not cooked carrots.  I will do whatever I can to not eat cooked carrots.  They are okay raw but cooked is another matter.

Afternoon Snack?
To top off the day, I had ground turkey with a cup of vegetables.  Most of the vegies were sautéed in olive oil.  The carrots I ate raw.  It is a texture thing.  I don't like the texture of a cooked carrot.

Ground Turkey for Supper
This is going to be a challenge.  I am a lot pickier of an eater than what I ever thought that I was.  But when I started making the meals and found myself saying, cook this but don't cook that.  This is going to be interesting because I am eating about 500 calories more than normal.  I am having a difficult time believing that I can eat that much more and lose weight.  But I am going to try in order to break through my plateau. The meals are a combination of protein, healthy fats and complex carbohydrates.  My carbohydrates will be significantly increased but they are supposed to be the "healthy" carbs.
