Time At Fast Forward Speed

Saturday, March 29, 2014

Wow.  One week from right now I will be on vacation.  Yikes.  That's a scary prospect.  A lot of work needs to be done before I can go.  And the thought of being away for a full week is always terrifying.  At least with a phone and laptop I can do stuff that's urgent but maybe not right-at-that-minute critical.  Oh, and it will be APRIL on Tuesday.  March has gone by so fast.

In a pretty positive mood.  Saw some good things on the scale this morning.  Feel decent.  Really want to get out there and walk, weather is slowly getting to the point where that's easier.

Breakfast:  2 eggs cooked in a bit of butter, 4 strips Plumrose bacon, "2 C" Alexia hash browns fried in 2 T evoo, coffee (750 calories)

Weekends were made for this

It wasn't my finest breakfast effort - the bacon and hash browns were just a shade less done than I prefer, but it was still good.  Love breakfast.  Of course now I have to watch my calories the rest of the day, but given that I plan to just have pizza/salad and tacos and I know what the numbers are on those it shouldn't be too hard to manage.  No dessert though.  Oh, and I did weigh the hash browns this morning - I was definitely shorting myself using volume measurement and that explains why I got so many more servings out of the bag.  I think I might actually dial back from 3 servings to 2, when weighed 3 is a lot!  #fatguyproblems.

Lunch:  Einkorn/parmesan crust pizza with ham, salad (625 calories)

Another tasty salad variation, even without dressing

Bumped up the cheese on the pizza to 3/8 C.  No avocado today, just iceberg lettuce, pickle and red salsa plus whatever part of the ham I didn't put on the pizza.  I'm also out of pickles and iceberg ... guess I need to restock a couple things!

Dinner:  Homemade beef soft tacos (675 calories)

Adios, bottle of Tapatio.  Kaput.

Good as always.  Very simple this time, just iceberg, a little red salsa and hot sauce.  And lots of beef.  Good CF beef.  It occurs to me that I have been eating a lot of hot sauce.

Day Totals:  2,050 calories.  Just a shade high.  I guess I could have skipped a tortilla or that extra 1/8 C of cheese.  Oh, well.  It's the weekend and I've been active.

Exercise:  Nope.  I had hopes for walking this morning.  Got up again.  Didn't get out there.  At least it was a very active day doing stuff around the house.
