Ongoing Bloat

Thursday, March 9, 2017

Feeling bloated this evening. (Edit:  Oddly less so after eating dinner?!)   Had a carby lunch late, but this has been kind of a theme.  I may need to reduce the carbs further - cut out the rice and remaining potatoes too.  I have to admit that I'm not too excited about that - giving up potatoes may well be more annoying than giving up (most) flour.

Breakfast:  ~2 oz sharp cheddar, a few slices of salami, coffee

Ran out the door this morning, so forgot the photo.  Even took the coffee with me.

I could use a prior pic as a stock photo, but I'm not going to bother.

Early lunch (noon):  Taco Bell shredded chicken burrito

I decided to test a theory - let's see if it makes any difference in my workout if I have some food - carbs and protein and fat - a while before my workout.  Verdict:  No discernible difference.

No photo, was eaten in car.

Lunch (2:00 or so):  Qdoba brisket bowl

Pretty standard Qdobowl.  

Having a good burrito artist make your bowl is a good thing.  The young woman who made mine recognized me as a regular and did a fine job.  Quite tasty.  I thought about getting chicken instead of brisket due to the calories in the earlier burrito but figured nah, let's stick with the good stuff.  Few regrets.

Dinner:  2 eggs over medium, rest of the CF beef bacon, hash brown mix in butter, vegetable juice

Yum.  10/10, would eat again.

6 strips of the "bacon" today.  Seems like 20 to a 1 lb package.  I like the stuff and will get some more when I go back to the farm, which could be as soon as tomorrow.

Will probably have a 12 oz Bells Smitten Ale.  I think I have two of those left and a couple Two Hearted.  Might need to wack the beer too.  We'll see.

Exercise:  45 minutes "all body".  Solid workout but perhaps not quite as intense.
