Overload and Reload

Thursday, June 1, 2017

Hey, it's been a while.

Things have been in full meltdown all along.  I have reached the point of complete saturation work-wise and it's killing my home life.  The only saving grace is that it's summer and I've been a bit more active.  That's a very faint silver lining.

Need to get back at it.

Wet But Not Wild

Sunday, April 30, 2017

A rainy Sunday means no golf.  Probably office time instead and chores at home.  I wouldn't calll it fun, but I guess those things are necessary.

Breakfast:  2 eggs over medium, 5 strips Meijer thick cut bacon, hash brown mix in butter, coffee

Not sure how would improve on this.

Pretty much perfection.  About the only way I can think of to make it better is to use better quality bacon.

Old standby.  Kind of wish I had a donut though.  (Yeah, I know, donut bad).

Snack:  Leftover slice of yesterday's bread with generous butter

A very buttery weekend.

Lunch:  2 Culvers double deluxe, root beer float, Snyders pretzel pieces

Exercise:  Nope



Saturday, April 29, 2017

Breakfast:  McD sausage biscuit, coffee

Lunch:  Italian beef, chicago dog, fries, brownie

Dinner:  Grilled cheese on homemade bread, Campbell's chicken noodle soup

Okay.

I was pondering what to have for dinner.  The rain started so I didn't want to go out.  I didn't have anything thawed.  And then I remembered that I had picked up a can of chicken noodle recently.  What to have with it?  No crackers or other bread ... but wait!  Without specifically intending to do so I got the bread machine out of storage recently.  It can do a loaf in an hour.  I can shred some sharp cheddar.  Sold!  Grilled cheese it is.  Threw some italian seasoning into the bread, which came out mediocre but it does the job.

Dessert:  Root beer float

Obnoxiously good.

Exercise:  18 holes with cart

Linkage

Fundamental Lack of Under

Sunday, March 26, 2017

I just don't get it.  Here I had a bunch of pizza Friday.  Scale down.  Had a horrible blowout last night, no exercise (I spend most of the day reading), feel bloated and plugged today.  Scale down.  It's maddening.  But, then again, it's better than the alternative and I'll probably still pay for it later as things catch up to me.  But what a horrible stretch.  Yeesh.

Breakfast:  2 eggs over medium, 5 thick strips bacon, hash brown mix in butter, coffee

Glorious.

10/10, will eat again.  Second straight day of excellent oven bacon.  20 minutes at 375, flip once.  This is with the Wright thick cut applewood smoked bacon.  It's just the right mix of crispy and chewy.

Lunch:  Leftover hamburger patty, mashed potatoes with milk

Ended up being more like potato soup.

Dinner:  Chop suey casserole, cheesy beans, rolls with butter, cake and ice cream, 12 oz Miller Lite

Exercise:  Nope

Dam Bust

Saturday, March 25, 2017

Welp.  The messed up psyche won this one.  Late in the day, too.

Breakfast:  Some cheezits, coffee

Slept it.  Finished off the cheezits while lazing and reading a book.  No photo.

Lunch:  2 eggs over medium, 6 thick strups bacon, hash brown mix in butter

Perfection.  And a lot of it.

Extra bacon, lots of potatoes.  Didn't get me through.

Snack:  Greek Gods plain greek yogurt

Too lazy to thaw any berries.

Closed thing to a snack I had on hand, since I had already cleaned up the last of the Cheezits.

Dinner:  ~ 7 oz CF ground beef cooked oven slider style with dehydrated onions, mashed potatoes

Meat and potatoes, what could be bad?

Not bad, not exceptional.  I impulse bought a stick of Kerrygold butter with garlic and herbs at the store since it was new and on sale.  Added a nice flavor, but nothing over the top.  Terrible value, of course, but it was a cheap splurge and I still have most of the stick left.  The most annoying thing is that the stick is 3.5 oz, not the usual 4 oz, good thing I won't use it for anything measured, just on potatoes and veggies.

Blowout:  McD MacJr, cheeseburger.  Chili cheese fritos, no back cookies

Epic (and epicurean) failure.  I was not particularly hungry.  This was a pure failure of will, egged on by whatever defective part of my brain says this is OK.  No photo.  Awful.

Not Even Halfin' It

Friday, March 24, 2017

TGIF.

For McFood it was quite good.  It was still McFood.

Grossly excessive.  If I have access to pizza, I will eat it.  Ruthlessly.

Exercise:  Nope.

Halfin' It

Thursday, March 23, 2017

Large and caloric.

Dinner:  2 Wendy's singles (bogo coupon), some Cheezits, might have a cup of decaf later

Or Less Than Two Thirds

Wednesday, March 22, 2017

Got through the super stressful day.  Phew.

Lunch:  Some kind of deluxe italian sub.

No pic.  Was quite tasty, though rather heavily mayonaised.

Also:  Raspberry sorbet cone.

Dinner:  Taco salad, pork.   Hot sauce.  Might have a cup of decaf.

Sometimes you get it to go.

Not quite as fantastic as other times but still very tasty.  This particular salad was heavy on the pork, I'm not sure it had any beans.

Exercise:  No, not unless you count stress.

Two Thirds

Tuesday, March 21, 2017

Getting closer.  I even had a plan for dinner but cracked.  Stressful day coming up tomorrow, so I was weak.  So it goes.

Lunch:  Qdoba brisket bowl

Mr. Smooth with the iPhone

Another high quality Qdoba effort from my favorite burrito artist.

Dinner:  Domino's booklyn style pizza with pepperoni, ham, onion.  Decaf coffee.

Sometimes you just need cheap chain pizza.  No photo.

Exercise:  40 minutes mostly energy stuff.  Had really good pep, moved through things quickly.  Even the knees and ankles were on board, they didn't complain too much.

One More Day Of That

Monday, March 20, 2017

Slept well, just not enough after getting back from vacation semi-late night.  Ankles are a little grumpy, it will be interesting to see if they (and the achilles) are loose enough tomorrow for some exercise.

It was good to see that lots of walking on vacation offset a lot of bad eating pretty well.

Breakfast:  TB sausage crunchwrap, coffee

Lunch:  4 mexican tacos with hot sauce

Living near a good mexican place is a good thing.
Except for fatness.
