As If More Proof Were Needed That This Isn't Science

Day 140

Getting an early jump on the post today, just because.  I took a short break and walked down the hall - it was nice to feel light on my feet.  That's a rare feeling.  I also have pretty good energy today after a very sluggish (and late) start.  I had fewer cramping issues last night but my sleep situation remains well below optimal.  I need to do something about that but really don't know how I can.

It's kind of funny, after Saturday's failfest I had a pretty decent day yesterday and when I weighed myself this morning things were good, a new low achieved.  I'm still not doing great this month but I'm happy that the numbers continue to inch downward.  I do think a periodic "cheat" is a good thing -- it keeps the metabolism guessing -- but I really don't need to do the all day blowout thing.  I'm sure I'll get another test this upcoming weekend since it's a holiday.

Breakfast:  ~ 2.5 oz ham, 1.5 oz jalapeno white cheddar, chipotle mayo on a light italian Flatout bread

Decided to try something different for breakfast and this was quite good.  The Flatout added nice flavor, albeit at a modestly high (~ 7g) carb count.  I don't know that I'm going to make them a regular part of my diet since I truly don't need the starch and they contain (ugh) soy, but for this week at least I'm going to be eating them.

Lunch:  Wendy's spicy chicken guacamole club

Dinner:  About 2/3 of a taco salad, spicy pork with salsa;  flatout wrap with ham, cheddar and mayo just like breakfast

The taco salad just wasn't right tonight.  I might be burned out on it.

Exercise:  Tested out a new basketball (needs more inflation) for a few minutes, but not enough to count.  Likely to try and go to bed early.
