Final Meal and After Workout Meal - 11 Jun

 11 jun

after workout meal is at bottom. only 2 meals for today, my evening meal was pork chops. scored some 25cents on the dollar pork chops from Kroger. i rarely eat pork outside of bacon or breakfast sausage. ground beef is always cheaper per pound than pork.. these marked down chops are respectable pricing.

Dont understand why they do this... there are 2 pork chops in this package but label says 2.5 servings.. of course its to trick you since your eye goes to the calories or maybe the protein/fat.. they arent counting on you doing some A squared, plus B squared equals C squared type shit in your head.. regardless im eating both chops

i whisk up 3 eggs for the pork wash and dip in a "bread crumb" type mixture except i use mainly parmesan cheese.. this time was half crumbs/ half parmesan. so 2 chops , scramble up the egg wash, added a tomato. final macros:

Protein: 80c

Fat: 30c

Carbs: 5c

Calories: 650ish

added a few carbs/fat/calories for the tomato, some bread crumbs, and regular ranch dressing.

Cost for meal: chops $2.79, eggs about .40, tomato .88lb .. call it $3.75

note: the ballpark number of only eating about 30grams of protein per meal is a myth, i can send you a youtube link saying otherwise

After workout meal

slept in hard today till noon and left for gym at 2pm. its common for gym members to eat right after their workout / drink protein shake, etc to get those nutrients in during that anabolic window that i think is bullshit.. regardless after a workout , everyone is starvin like marvin.. i make this before leaving and leave it in the truck, eat in the truck after workout while listening to some tunes. pretty easy

the catfood looking stuff on left is one packet of tuna mixed with packet of sweet/spicy salmon and some onions. i still have 15 or so of these packets im working thru from previous kroger runs or else this would be a standard can of tuna.

on the right is an avocado / roma tomato / onion / some cheese spread from kroger deli and 2 hard boiled eggs.

im targeting about 500-600 per meal. totals for this meal: 

Protein: 41

Fat: 42

Carb: 10

Calories 610ish

a few more carbs from the cheese dip. technically more carbs in the avocado and tomato but carbs from fiber are not counted but are added in the final calorie total. the sweet and spicy tuna packets im working thru have some sugar so in the future can deduct 8 carbs after i run out. without the flavored its nearly a net carb free. it looks like alot of food by volume but not really.

on side note, i keep some old travel size aspirin bottles in my bag filled with vitamins that i take with this meal. currently, a "one-a-day" type multi vitamin, Vitamin C (1000mg size) (take 2), and some B-12.

Cost: since i love getting deals at Kroger , i pounce when that mack daddy discount hits. Packet of tuna 69cents, salmon packet is over $1 per, i will not get these anymore, since i have to go to a non Kroger to get. Current medium eggs 30pack for $4.00. Avocado 88cents, roma tomato 88cents/lb - so the meal is just a few dollars for a few minutes of effort vs fast food or sit down restaurant likely at least $20 per person.
