Screwing Up Something Non Diet

Saturday, October 11, 2014
Day 6

Well then.  After last night's dinner FAIL, I had a routine do-nothing evening.  Went to sleep a little later than usual, actually fell asleep on the couch.

And then I woke up at 2:30.

2:30 a.m.  Ugh.  I tried to go back to sleep.  Got a drink of water, worked out a little cramp, crawled in bed.  No luck.  Shortly after 5:00 I got up and did a little reading.  I dozed lightly about 7:00 and finally gave up about 9:30.  Today is now TOTALLY screwed up.

Brunch:  2 CF jumbo eggs scrambled with a splash of whole milk and cooked in butter.   5 strips CF garlic pepper bacon.  Maybe an ounce of Kraft triple cheddar.  Alexia hash browns cooked in butter.  1 slice sourdough with ample butter.  Coffee

Oh yeah, and a little hot sauce.  Must have hot sauce.

How is that for a meal with lots of butter?   And lots of starch.  I could have skipped the toast but decided to have a slice before I put the loaf into the freezer.  Anyway, at least it was brunch.  I didn't eat immediately when I got up and hopefully now will be good until dinner, which might be shaded a bit early.

Snack:  Zucchini cooked in a bit of olive oil, topped with avocado, garlic, lemon juice and olive oil.

Waste of a perfectly good avocado if you ask me...

Some times you have to try something different.  This sounded like a good idea -- a recipe from a blog.  But ... yuck.  I ate less than half.  I just don't like zucchini.  Oh well.

Dinner:  Leftover pot roast, 3 small russet potatoes boiled, peas, 12 oz Bells Two Hearted Ale

Too many potatoes?  Well, yeah.  But yum.

A very solid dinner, topped off with a nice beer.  Not the most diet-friendly stuff, but it's cool.

Exercise:  If I had possessed just a little bit more zip at 5:00 I could have walked.  But given that I got maybe 3 hours of sleep before I woke up, it was not happening.  9 holes golf, with cart.
