Slow Everything

Tuesday, October 23, 2012

The sad realization that I'm not likely to reach my end of the year goal set in this morning.  I just haven't been very consistent and I have allowed way too many grains to re-enter my diet.  The reality seems to be that if I don't pay attention, binge and otherwise eat starch I'm stuck in this general weight range.

Which is not acceptable.

I'm cognizant of the problem.  I have a pretty good idea of what I'd need to do to fix it.  Now all that needs to happen is that I actually have to DO it.  Dummy.

On the non-food front I felt like I accomplished a couple little things around the house last night.  I even cleaned out the coat closet, one of those projects that gets tackled every ten years whether it needs it or not. Uh, yeah, it needed to be done.  Much improved.

Breakfast:  Big bowl of leftover stew, coffee

Amazingly enough I managed not to spill any of this.  LOL quantity control.

Still good.  Big bowl, probably more than I really need to eat in the morning.  Going to cut down the quantity next time and also cut back on the carrot and potato portions to reduce the carb count a bit.  And I dunno, maybe I should call it soup.

Lunch:  Leftover oatcakes, 4 slices CF garlic/pepper bacon, coffee

I'm definitely not tired of the oatcakes.  Yum.

I think that I've pretty much mastered how to cook the CF bacon.  The first time I bought it many months ago I wasn't super impressed - I think I probably overcooked it.  Now, it's fantastic.  I definitely like the garlic/pepper flavor.

Dinner:  Little Caesars pepperoni pizza.  Yeah, oops.

Exercise:  None.  Raining yet AGAIN.  Did a little shopping and now going to spend a couple hours doing projects around the house.
