We'd love to have you there as well. So we have a busy fun day today so let's jump in. Well hey I thought I'd hop on really quick and let you guys know about today's what I eat in a day. It's a little bit different than my traditional what I eat in a day. So if you watch the ones that I upload literally every single Wednesday and you follow my channel and you know that my preferred caloric intake every day is between 1800 and 2000 calories. That still puts me in a deficit. I still lose weight as I have for the last six plus months that I started tracking calories and points together. So that's where I like to fall calorically wise. My whole mission is to eat as much as I possibly can and still lose weight and that seems to be a good caloric number for me. But in my last several what I eat in a day staying within my WW points I'm only eating between 1300 and about 1600 max calories every day and that's to stay within my 32 allowed points every day on WW. I do eat a lot of whole food. Yes I eat some processed food in those what I eat in a days as well but because it seems to put me pretty low calorie wise anywhere from like I said 1300 to 1600 which can be upwards of five or 600 calories less than I want to be eating in a day to be in a caloric deficit. Today I wanted to change it up a little bit so today I am eating my calories. My goal for today is 1900 calories. I'm going to focus on real whole food. I am going to have a couple of snacks throughout the day today and let's see where I fall WW point wise in order to reach my calorie intake for the day. I've done several videos on points versus calories I'll link that entire playlist down in the description box for you guys but I am really trying to focus on my calories really making sure I'm eating between that 1800 and 2000 so I may do this in my future videos eat my calories and then let you know how many points I ate to reach those calories so let me know down in the comments if you guys would be interested in that just to see just exactly how many points I I'm eating to reach my desired calories even at the 1800 mark what is the number of points that on average I'm eating and of course that's going to change depending on the foods that I choose but you guys know I eat a lot of the same thing I'm very protein focused my goal is 140 to 170 grams of protein every day I did go ahead and track all of my food today and today I'm at 153 grams of protein so that is fantastic and you'll see I'm even sprinkling in a couple little snacks here and there as well so let me know down in the comments if you like this format where I track calories first and then just let you know how many points I ate in order to hit my calories so here is my breakfast you guys know this is my new very favorite breakfast lunch dinner snack I'm obsessed the hash browns that I use I have gotten a couple questions are these ones from Trader Joe's you can really use any frozen hash brown patty I just pop it in my toaster you could throw it in your air fryer pan fry it throw it in the oven just get it nice and crispy and then I just add some smashed up avocado and a hot over hard egg and that makes this really delicious spin on avocado toast and then I have some watermelon which looks like a lot but I will be sharing it with my dog speaking of dogs you can hear Palmer in the background and then I have my second cup of water for the day so my breakfast is four points for the hash brown three for the avocado everything else is zero so it's seven points excuse me mr mr Palmer mommy's filming what you doing what you doing is it time for me to share my watermelon with you guys okay let's do it here go bud oh here go baby girl so here's my morning snack I'm keeping it pretty simple and I'm not super hungry I just want a little something something to keep me satisfied until lunch so I'm going to have the synergy watermelon wonder kombucha I love this one this one is so good it is all the summer vibes ww counts this is three points I count this as one point it is only 60 calories for the entire bottle and then I'm going to have these utopia snacks you guys know I love these they're 130 calories they have eight grams of protein and they are four points this espresso obsessa one is my very very favorite go espresso cookie puffs roasted almonds and then the star of the show is the chocolate covered espresso beans again this is four points the kombucha is one point so that is five points for my snack let me open these up and show these to you guys seriously such a great snack they have bananas for chocolate which is my second favorite and then if you like a more savory snack they have a honey mustard one that's really good as well I will make sure they are linked in the description box with the discount for you so here is what the snack mix looks like you get a lot in the package you can see the almonds the chocolate espresso beans and the little cookie puffs seriously so good definitely pick them up all the different flavors are four points per package so I wanted to show you guys this vacuum that I actually got off of amazon they did not send this to me I bought this with my own money actually saw this in a subscription unboxing video on someone else's youtube channel and I have been looking for a portable vacuum not only to vacuum my car because sometimes I like to just vacuum out my car because I always have dog hair on me food whatever else falls on the floor in the seats of your car and I really wanted this to vacuum off the couch in my formal living room because I have to haul in our shop back in order to really get the hair off of it and I heard that this vacuum is amazing the other thing about this vacuum is that it has an air purifying setting so you can actually put this in your car for example or in a room shut the door no pets no humans and it will completely detoxify and purify the air so I'm pretty excited about it it charges usb it's super quiet it has an attachment to really get that with a brush to get the hair out or a thinner vacuum attachment if you need to get into a smaller area like the crevice the seats of your car so I'm excited for this it was really affordable I'll link it down below for you guys I just picked it up off of amazon but we're gonna try it out in my car and then I also want to see if it picks up the dog hair on my couch and again it's just chargeable usb it's really pretty it's aesthetically pleasing you don't have to worry about a cord or battery so let's test it out really just sucking up all this dog hair all right I'm officially impressed my salad this looks so good I can't wait for this I have been craving craving salads the recipe for my dressing is on my website as well as a couple different variations of my favorite salad but for the one that I'm eating today it is four points for the kid fresh chicken nuggets one point for the avocado oil one point for the balsamic vinegar makes six and then one point for the tablespoon of sesame seeds makes seven so my salad is seven points I cannot wait to dig in so here's Palmer's pool here it comes pumpkin look look oh get it get your ball get your ball oh good boy can you get it it's so cute it's like he's bobbing for apples with that ball oh and then he drinks the water of course there's diesel see how he's still limping poor guy only a couple more weeks tell your surgery buddy this is his spot right here where the shade is of this tree he will literally lay out here all day long six seven hours get your ball Palmer get your ball get it get it give lola well get your brother get him hi honey hi oh oh shish yeah what's happening over here well are you gonna go in the pool you want to go in the pool so for my afternoon snack i'm having my very very favorite protein powder in the entire world and i'm going to make a protein shake so i'm going to use my live well plant-based protein powder i have talked about this in so many videos i truly truly love live well they do carry several flavors this is the vanilla what i love the most about this protein powder besides the fact that it has extremely clean ingredients it is also free from gmo's soy gluten and dairy each one scoop serving has 16 grams of amino acids 17 grams of complete protein and only 2 grams of all natural sugar is also usda certified organic the ingredients as you can see are extremely extremely clean it's 91 calories per scoop and again 17 grams of complete protein it doesn't taste like plant-based protein or that chalkiness you get from plant-based not at all it is smooth it's creamy it truly is in my opinion the best protein powder out there so today i'm using the vanilla the vanilla is one point per scoop the coconut cacao which is their chocolate and the unflavored are two points per scoop so if you're like me and you just want to clean delicious protein highly recommend live well i do have a discount for them i will link it at the very top of the description box for you head on over support them pick up the best protein powder out there hands down it blends like a dream and it's also my favorite to add to protein oatmeal or just to shake it up in a shaker bottle and drink it because it doesn't have any chalky aftertaste and then i'm going to do a cup of the silk almond coconut milk a small frozen banana and then today i'm going blueberry so i have these yummy organic wild blueberries from trader joe's i'm just going to make it here in my magic bullet it just makes it easy just a single serve protein shake so first i'm going to add my cup of almond milk i always add my liquid first just because i don't want the protein powder or anything to really stick to the side and then i'm going to add my scoop of my vanilla live well protein about a quarter of a cup or so maybe a third of a cup of frozen blueberries and my frozen banana now the frozen banana is going to just help make it nice and creamy look how pretty she is so we're just going to blend it so if you haven't picked up live well this is your chance to get it at a really good price again the vanilla is one point per scoop so it's one point for the protein powder one point for the almond milk i do not count points for blended fruit so two points and i'm getting almost 20 grams of complete protein for dinner tonight i'm making cheese steak quesadillas i am going to pop a bag of frozen vegetables in my microwave as well but let me show you what's in dinner first you're going to need some top sirloin steak my steak is from butcher box you guys know how obsessed we are with butcher box if you're in the market for grass fed grass finished high quality meat for an affordable price highly recommend butcher box i will have it linked down in the description box and you get 30 off of your first box so we're using the grass fed top sirloin steak 18 ounces of steak total a bell pepper and onion and then i'm actually going to use this seasoning in place of the seasonings in the in the original recipe i will link the original recipe on my recipe website but this is tuli's southern style all-purpose barbecue rub and seasoning so here's your ingredients salt pepper cayenne pepper garlic powder onion powder paprika and brown sugar tanny tuli is one of my lovely subscribers she's also in my facebook group she's a doll and a half this is her company she reached out and offered to send me the seasoning and of course i said yes so that i could try it out and share it with you guys i will link tuli's barbecue southern style rub down below for you can't wait to use this in tonight's recipe we're going to do a provolone cheese and then the law bandarita low carb one point tortillas so i went ahead and put my steak in a ziploc bag and then i'm going to put in some of the tuli's barbecue seasoning and just rub that around all over the steak i will tell you this seasoning smells delicious so i went ahead and added my steak to a pan that i sprayed with non-stick cooking spray make sure that you don't overcrowd the meat once your steak is done go ahead and remove it from the pan and then we're going to re-spray with some non-stick cooking spray and pop in our bell peppers and onions so you should pick up all that yummy steak seasoning which by the way is absolutely incredible it is so delicious so we're going to saute these down and then we'll be ready to start assembling the quesadillas the onions and bell peppers are done so i'm going to pull those out of the pan and put in the first tortilla for the first quesadilla so i'm going to spray my pan again with some non-stick cooking spray add in the tortilla and then add in your steak and your veggies cheese fold it over and let it cook the cheese a chance to melt i kind of like to push on it to make sure that it seals in everything we'll flip it over cut it into triangles i'm going to throw a bag of frozen green beans in the microwave and i'll be back to share points and calories so here is my dinner i have some of the microwaved green beans and then one cheese steak quesadilla which looks absolutely delicious with the steak veggies and melted cheese so just for the steak mixture it is three points on all plans the way that i have it it is eight points on the blue plan which is the plan that i'm on it it would actually be eight points on all plans 372 calories just the steak mixture with the veggies is 257 calories and that's when that entire batch makes only four quesadillas so my dinner is eight points here's dessert
