What's The Number

Friday, November 28, 2025

Part of the post-Thanksgiving fun is trying to guess how much the scale will be up.  I guessed a relatively small number, two pounds, since I didn't eat quite as much as anticipated.  Turns out it was only one pound.  Going to call that a big win.  

Speaking of which, I was actually able to speak one into existence.  Before I crashed last night, I verbalized a desire to get a good night's sleep from midnight to 8:00.  And what do you know, I went to sleep quickly and woke up just after 8:00, with only one minor 3:15 wakeup for a mild toe-curling cramp and water removal.  Big win.  

Been a lazy start.  I have more cleaning up to do, then I'll decide between office time and home projects.  Probably nothing too ambitious either way.  No shopping planned and I'm not going to go anywhere if I do not need to, the weather isn't great for driving.  I hit some ice yesterday and was lucky to avoid a mailbox.

Breakfast:  Roll w butter, 1 slice extra sharp cheddar, coffee

 

Had a last roll from the test batch, still good.  Very impressed by how well they kept.  Unsurprisingly I was not terribly hungry but I did want to eat something before coffee.

Lunch:  2 eggs over hard, hash browns in RCO, 4 strips thick cut bacon

 

If I want better eggs I'm going to have to use more butter/oil/grease, I just used an odd bit of RCO and it wasn't enough, the eggs stuck (to my nonstick pan).  Still tasted great though. 

Will have a glass of Pepsi later. 

Dinner:  Gardetto's rye chips, 12 oz Miller Lite, leftover turkey, stuffing and gravy, cranberry

 

Too many rye chips.  Going to pitch the rest.  Also need to never buy them again, that ingredient list is ugh.  I couldn't come close to eating the whole bowl of leftovers, I ate between a third and a half.

 

And tonight's capper, leftover lemon meringue pie and a glass of 2% milk. 

Exercise:  Nope.  Definitely not a very active day.
