Pork n Dairy

Saturday, January 25, 2020

Glad for a weekend.  I have ambitious plans, even if I may not be too strong in the ambition department.  We'll see how things unfold.

Decided to try starting on the bed last night, switching to the recliner if needed.  I managed to fall asleep reasonably fast and stayed asleep until just before 5:00.  Wasn't too exhausted when I got up and I was not able to fall back asleep in the chair.  Gave up before 6:00 and decided to just start the day.  Remains to be seen how this will impact my productivity.

Felt a bit leaner -- of course we are talking fractionally, not significantly -- this morning even if the scale didn't show it.  I've been pretty liberal in my starch consumption this week and should probably reduce it some, but I'm not going to worry too much as long as it's primarily a carrier for butter instead of a standalone.

Breakfast:  3 strips thick cut bacon, bread and butter, medium avocado, coffee

A very enjoyable breakfast.  Easy too since I had cooked the bacon yesterday.  Avocado was just perfection, completely ripe and so good. 

Lunch:  Homemade spelt buttermilk biscuits with homemade sausage gravy w CF sausage

Wasn't entirely sure how this was going to turn out, but it turned out quite good.  Used up a sausage that's been sitting in the freezer for a while.  As for the biscuits, note to self:  Butter the pan.  Doh.  The parts that didn't stick were pretty good, though they didn't rise as much as hoped.

Pretty frustrated right now with how I feel right now.  It's physically hard to do much of anything, between the leg and just generally feeling, I dunno, strained.   Fatigued isn't quite the right word.  Weak, tired and hurting.

Dinner:  Homemade pizza with pepperoni, bacon and mushrooms

Yeah, I love pizza night.  Not super impressed with myself and how I ate today, but at least it was all home cooked.  And once again I'm not tempted by the other half of the pizza, I'll have a great quick lunch on Monday.  Also:  I finally have been feeling better since late afternoon.  Got some things done, it's all good.  I was pretty worried earlier.

Exercise:  Not really.  I mean, I was active.  I moved a bunch of stuff -- slowly and gingerly in most cases, but I moved it.  Maybe even for long enough to count it.  But nothing intentional.
