Like for omelettes? I've seen it a lot, but only tried it once. It worked fine, but eggs get gross pretty quickly after cooking like that (to me at least) so it didn't work well as a meal prep for the whole week, just a day or 2 ahead.

Yeah I was trying to find a convenient way to knock out some morning meals. But I wasn't sure how they would be 2-3 days down the road.

ok, late on the updates but stayed on the wagon mostly. Friday night I got some rough news. Things could turn out pretty well, but I have to walk the line closely and pray for the best.

So, friday I let my feet dangle off the wagon a bit. No damage done really, I still dropped weight and i think it may be worth doing this a couple time a month, or at least once, to stay sane with good food.

Coffee, 1 scoop whey, 2 tbsp coconut oil

accidental 12 hours fast

Dinner - The Bob and Tom special at KB's BBQ. All you can eat, pick 2 meats.
I went with ribs and fried fish. And a side of hush puppies and onion rings. Best hush puppies and onion rings in the state. 15 spare ribs and a pound of fish later, I was pretty good. Even better, its $11 for it.

Carbs - 60-80g
Protein - 220-250g

Yesterday went a little better.

Coffee, 1.5 scoops whey, 2 tbsp coconut oil

Leftover lasanga

1 filet left over fish, 1 rib, 1 chicken breast i found in the fridge

Dinner - BBQ chicken, fried okra, baked black soy beans - I ate a whole chicken. I am proud of this.

4 boiled eggs before bed

carbs - 20-25g
protein 240-265g

Things have been nuts, but I've stayed on track. Overeaten the past couple of nights, but on good food. Because seriously, who can eat just one enchilada?

Wednesday - Ground beef burritos
Thursday - Spaghetti with dream fields pasta and heavy meat sauce
Friday - Ground beef enchiladas

Hurble. Wandered of the path, gained 12 pounds in 5 days, working on getting things under control again. Definitely getting sick too. Oh well, been right on target that past few days. Under 30g carbs, under 3000 calories.

Pork Stir fry

3 pounds pork - I had boston butts slices into steaks and grilled them for this
half a cabbage
1 bell pepper
1 onion
6 carrots
2 heads broccoli
1/4 pound snow peas
Any other veggies lurking in the fridge
1 tbsp black bean sauce
1 tbsp hot chili paste
soy sauce

Cook pork through. Slice into bite sized chunks (or cook it in a crock pot and shred it)
While pork is cooking, chop veggies
Add veggies to a large wok (a big cast iron skillet works too) with plenty of oil, and cook them on medium high until the onions lose some of their bite.
Add meat, bean sauce, chili paste, and soy sauce, cook for another 5 minutes, stirring frequently.

Easy to add carbs to this one. Add rice or noodles. Bam. Carbs.
