New Boot

Thursday, November 8, 2012

Trying again to get refocused.  I had some time yesterday to get the kitchen picked up, so a little progress there.

Breakfast:  1 oz hard salami, 2 slices Kraft Big Slice sharp cheddar cheese, coffee

The breakfast of non-champions

Grab and go, didn't have anything else planned out.  It'll do.

Lunch:  2 eggs, scrambled and cooked in a bit of butter, 2 leftover oatcakes, 1 small organic avocado.  Coffee.

Eggs.  Eggs.  Eggs.  Oh, and other stuff.

Basics.  Concerned this might be a bit light on protein but I think I'll be OK.  I should probably not have the starch of the oatcakes either but I think I'll be OK for the day.

Dinner:  CF grass-fed ribeye steak, salad (iceberg, cucumber, Ro-Tel and a couple pepperocinis) with Newman's Own olive oil dressing

Food pr0n

Steak was chillin in the fridge (vacuum sealed) for who knows how long.  Too long.  If I die or get deathly ill in the next few hours you'll know it was due to poor food safety.  It smelled and tasted fine so I went for it.  Cooked it 25 minutes in the oven, finished on a hot grill.  Mediocre crust and a bit overdone but still delicious.

Snack:  Wavy Lays potato chips

Other than the chips (which I'm eating as I type this), it was a pretty good day.  I think I need to subscribe to the adage "if you don't have it lying around you won't eat it you dumbass".  I think Ben Franklin said that.

Exercise:  How about that, I got in a morning walk.  About 2.5 miles I believe, took about 50 minutes.  There were a few nice hills so I was quite awake by the time I finished.  I don't know if this will become a trend (especially once the snow flies) but it felt pretty good.
