Such A Dip
Saturday, January 22, 2022
TGIS. So much more than I TGIF, although F eve is a worthy contender. Anyway, I have a massive list of stuff to do this weekend and ehhh not so much pep this morning. Oh well. Breakfast is done, let's see what I can get busy doing.
Breakfast: 3 eggs shirred in cream, 1 Meijer sausage patty, toast w butter, grapefruit, coffee
Good but not great. I'm not getting the eggs exactly the way I like them. Other recipes seem to bake them at a much higher temp, I'm going to mess around with that next time. Toast was also meh, glad to be done with that packet. Making a fresh loaf is on the agenda for today.
Lunch: Keto Bowl with ground beef
A fave.
Dinner: Home thin crust pizza w italian sausage, onion and red bell pepper, 24 oz All Day IPA
A fantastic pizza, didn't take much effort - I had dough and sausage in the freezer (thawed), snagged a little of the veg from the batch of spicy beans that is in proces. EZ game.
Exercise: Nope. Same story. Schedule way off, slept way too late, cold and windy out there anyway. I'll be Saturday active (though I won't be going to storage I don't think) just nothing specific enough to count.

A Very Airfryer Something
Tuesday, January 18, 2022
We will see if the internet issues have been resolved. It was stable for a while last night (after another reset) but who knows. It is certainly annoying. Next step if it is not working is to try a different router.
Edit: NOPE. It particularly hates Google sites, notably google photos. Oh, and blogger.
Breakfast: Coffee
Yup.
Lunch: Ham and potato soup, toast
Wow, that really turned out delicious. Not all that much different than my regular soup, just ham instead of ground beef and no tomato, add cream. I should have "finished" it before adding the cream, that way I could have frozen some of it and just added cream when reheating. Doh. Oh well, I don't really have any room in the freezer anyway. That's a project for this weekend, to get some stuff out of there.
Dinner: Ham and potato soup, 12 oz All Day IPA, air fried dill pickles with ranched sour cream
The soup was so good (and I have so much in the fridge) that I just doubled up. And then I played with the new toy, an air fryer that arrived over the weekend. Quite impressed with how the pickles turned out.
Exercise: Nope. Schedule is getting worse, not better. Could not get to sleep last night, was after midnight before I did. Felt lousy as usual (since winter) when I got up, the dry air and draftiness are a problem I haven't quite solved.

Wild Card Saturday Dunno If Super
Saturday, January 15, 2022
Having some internet issues at home lately. It's getting annoying. Just tried resetting the router, that does not seem to have solved it. Next up, the modem. If that doesn't work may be time to see whether I should be calling Spectrum.
Breakfast: 2 egg omelet with cheddar, guac and sour cream, 3 strips Meijer bacon, toast w butter, grapefruit, Meijer spicy veg juice
Another feast. All very good.
Lunch: Smoked meatloaf, mashed potatoes w gravy, roll w butter
Shopped longer than planned so I picked up lunch from the semi-local BBQ place. The first place I tried was closed so this was plan B. Good, a bit much and not so good for me.
Dinner: Home thin crust sausage pizza, 12 oz All Day IPA
Much smaller dough ball than usual. Still didn't roll it as thin as I could have, but whatever. Produced a nice plate-sized pizza and tasted great.
Exercise: Nope. Active day, did a bunch of non-grocery shopping and stuff around the house, but no formal exercise.

But For Lagging Elements
Tuesday, January 11, 2021
Slowly it's coming back together. Obviously I would like to have not had it take this long, but you cannot always control what happens. At least I'm back to feeling okay, which is a positive step. Now if I can just get the sleep schedule fixed - the last two nights have been big moves in the wrong direction - and it could warm up enough for me to get outside to walk. Those things will come, I just want it all right now.
Breakfast: Coffee
Yup.
Lunch: Soup and toast, 2 strips of leftover Meijer bacon
Yup. Cleaned up the last of the weekend's bacon.
Dinner: Taco bowl, 12 oz All Day IPA, mixed nuts
Too many nuts. Otherwise, standard.
Exercise: Nope. My schedule is shifted 2+ hours in the wrong direction as it is and I could have easily slept until 9:00 this morning. Need to work on that.

Embracing Pure Random
Monday, January 10, 2022
Okay. Back on track. Mostly. I hope.
The human body is weird and ridiculous and random. I was decidedly not active yesterday. Ate way too much including lots of bad stuff. Stayed up way too late. And yet, some time after dinner my body was like yeah let's get rid of a whole bunch of water and boom away it went. Yeesh.
No exercise this morning between schedule being way off, lack of sleep and subzero wind chills. I knew last night that this morning and tomorrow morning are unlikely. Still a little irritating. Oh well. Let's get the eating train back on the tracks and chip away at the schedule first. At least I felt pretty decent once I got moving, had a little more pep than usual.
Breakfast: Coffee
Yup.
Lunch: Soup and toast, Cabot reserve sharp cheddar cheese
My dumb ass forgot to bring home my phone. Oops. So no photo. New batch of soup - fantastic. Smaller quantity as I went to the pint jars hoping for easier storage for a bigger batch. New loaf of bread, new recipe and pan. Excellent. Added the end of a package of cheese, thinking it may not have been needed but we'll see how the afternoon goes.
Dinner: Tacos, 2 mexican 2 american. 12 oz All Day IPA
Taco Monday strikes again. It was good. For whatever reason they packaged them separately.
Also: Some mixed nuts. Last of the Christmas treats I believe.
I'll be fine when they're gone.
Exercise: Nope. As mentioned above.

Blockades Are No Fun Blockhead
Thursday, January 6, 2022
A rocky week continues. Predictably the system wasn't real pleased with yesterday's dietary choices. At least the issues there are gradually getting worked out. But ugh, it would be nice to not have things to complain about.
I was dehydrated last evening so between drinking a ton of water and eating way too much rice a lot of the liquid stuck around.
Breakfast: None
Just water. Didn't even test out coffee.
Lunch: TB chipotle grilled chicken burrito, deluxe sub later
Tried lunching in stages.
Dinner: Haagen Dazs chocolate ice cream
Nothing sounded good. Guts weren't too happy going in but seem to be taking this well so far. We'll see.
Update: Still going well. Added a couple slices of toast w butter.
Exercise: Nope. No chance. Winter storm going on too.

Fresh After Purge
Wednesday, January 5, 2022
Losing whatever was bothering my stomach seems to have been a real turning point. I got a good night of sleep afterward and feel much, much more normal today. Very happy about that.
Breakfast: Nice! vanilla wafer cookie bites
Not exactly the breakfast of champions, this was the $1 size package. Pure sugar. I should have found something else but I did want to test out the stomach with something non-acidic and this is what I had handy. Seems to have gone OK.
Lunch: Jimmy Johns #5 vito, salt and vinegar chips
Nasty day out there, was OK not leaving my desk. Good to have a normal appetite and I seem to be tolerating it just fine. Now, let's see if I have enough pep this evening to make a batch of soup.
Dinner: Yellow rice
And way, way too much of it.
Exercise: Nope. Soon, I hope.

Let's Get New
Saturday, January 1, 2022
Happy New Year. As expected, I did not make it midnight. Didn't try. I was perfectly happy to go to bed. Did get in my traditional pizza and bubbly though.
I am ready to get back on track. Got a little bit of a head start this morning, as I managed to get up at the right usual time and get myself out the door to walk ... though it did take a good 20 plus minutes longer than it should have to motivate. Oh well, it's Saturday. I was surprised to encounter more urban deer (3) than people out getting started on their resolutions (1). It was a perfect morning for exercise, right around 32F with no wind.
Ended up a few pounds for December, no surprise given what I've put on the last 10 days. Hoping much of it will disappear quickly once sanity returns to my eating.
Breakfast: Marble cornbread scramble, redskin potatoes, coffee
Lived it up and went out. Always good.
Also: Donuts and a glass of whole milk
I was going to make cinnamon rolls but too lazy.
Lunch: Five Guys cheeseburger all the way plus jala, little fries w ketchup
Another quasi-tradition. Much busier than the last time I did it on NYD, must be fewer diet resolutions this year.
Dinner: Ham, scalloped potatoes, corn, rolls w butter, pecan pie w vanilla ice cream
Another traditional meal, and while it was good I'd never do it myself, way too many carbs.
Exercise: Walk, 1.8 miles, about 40 minutes. Didn't time it exactly, but did get back a couple minutes earlier than I would have guessed. Really good pace for the first mile, the last hill did get me a little. Also quite active around the house so far today, getting up and down, hauling laundry, you name it.
