Day 31: An entire month of eating clean

I didn't update yesterday, but it was because my food was pretty much the exact same as the day before. :) Today I realized my clothes don't really fit anymore. Considering that, and the fact that I'm nearing drum corps age-out skinny (some of you know what I mean), I decided to call off the diet-ing. I'm switching to maintaining, and gonna bump up my training. I feel great and don't feel the need to withhold anything from my diet anymore. :)

Breakfast:

• Oats with flax seed, bee pollen, and wheat germ
  
• Scrambled egg whites with 1 whole egg

Mid-morning:

• Venison
  
• Green beans

Lunch:

• Spinach Salad with red pepper and hearts of palm
  
• 4 boiled egg whites
  

Mid-afternoon:

• 1 chocolate peanut butter whey protein shake
• 1 pear

Dinner:

• garlic hummus with sweet potato tortilla chips
  
• Venison chili
  

Those sweet potato chips are AWESOME! Sooooo tasty and all natural. I decided to make some chili with the ground venison I have. Now, usually I am great about just throwing whatever into a pot and matching flavors really well. This might be the worst soup I've ever made. Now, that being said, it isn't inedible, but definitely needed a lot more salt to taste right. I tried using curry powder, and didn't really like it. Oops! Oh well! You win some, you lose some. (In the chili I used: onion, garlic, green pepper, tomatoes, red beans, pinto beans, curry powder, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and venison).
