They say confession is good for the soul, so here goes: I not only am four days behind in posting menus, I stumbled tonight. If I'd looked at a calendar I could have pinpointed the day. Family dinner out, happens every year on this date, they chose an italian place. Right back on top of things though.

Day 8
Breakfast: ~ 3 oz ham, coffee
Late again. This is a recurring theme this week.
Lunch: I actually forgot to eat lunch.
Snack: 2.6 oz Spanish peanuts.
Finished off the can.
Dinner: 2 beef brats with jalapeno mustard, 2 slices sharp cheddar, 2 pickle spears, 4 oz V-8

Day 9
Breakfast: ~ 3 oz ham, coffee
Uh oh, that's the last of the ham, what am I going to do?
Lunch: ~ 4 oz Armour roast beef, 2 slices sharp cheddar, 2 pickles, 2 carrot sticks, 2 celery sticks
Dinner: 3 eggs scrambled with 3 strips bacon, jalapeno, 1 slice American cheese, 1 large avacado, 1/2 grapefruit, 4 oz V-8

Day 10
Breakfast: 2 big slices sharp cheddar cheese, coffee
Lunch: 1 Slim Jim (large size), water
Dinner: 3 beef brats, 2 slices sharp cheddar, 2 pickle spears, 4 oz V-8

Day 11
Breakfast: 2 slices American cheese, coffee
Lunch: 1 beef brat, ~ 6 oz Armour roast beef, 8 oz V-8 juice
Dinner: 1/2 of a 14" pizza, thinnest crust, pepperoni, meatball, green pepper. 2 servings of salad with house italian, roll with garlic butter, 16 oz Miller Lite
Yeah, there is the stumble. To make it worse, I ate a piece of pizza after my stomach already said "enough".
OK, self pep talk time. It's a fail. But it's not the end of the world. Don't compound the fail. Stay on track and in a year's time you won't even think to have that 3rd slice of pizza. You're still early enough in the process that this is still a lot better day than you had a month ago. Other than the roll and the pizza crust, the rest of it was OK.
Also: Remember how awful you feel right now. Ugh. Again thinking positive -- a long week with more than 60 hours in so far and all that food has me tired enough that going to bed early is sounding mighty appealing. That could be helpful in one of the next phases of this project: Getting up and going to bed early! (... and at consistent times)
