Lots and lots of beans this week. Alas, I'm out of the elite super bacon beans, I think.
Breakfast: Coffee
May have to start eating a little something just to cut the acid.
Lunch: Super bacon beans with beef lil' smokies and cheddar cheese, a few potato chips, the rest of the sesame bread stix with cheddar cheese spread
Cleaning things up....
Dinner: Homemade pepperoni pizza, chips and onion dip, Dr. Pepper, < 12 oz Founders Rubeus
I wasn't super fond of the beer.
Exercise: Nope.

Fun With Liquids
Thursday, January 10, 2019
The human body is weird. Even though I haven't done a very good job of cutting the excessive carbs this week my body still decided that I was carrying around too much water and that it needed to let go of some.
Breakfast: Coffee
My schedule is still off, I'm getting up late, going in to work late. That won't continue. Felt a bit better this morning. Still coughing though I don't feel sick.
Lunch: Spicy bacony beans with beef lil' smokies and cheddar cheese, some sesame breadsticks with cheddar cheese spread
It's been a beany week.
Dinner: Jack's frozen bacon cheeseburger pizza, chips with onion dip, Dr Pepper, a hershey cookie bar and cup of tapioca pudding
Very late arrival home and a whole lotta junk.
Exercise: Nope.

Thoughts Back And Forth
Wednesday, January 9, 2018
Kind of going back and forth a little in my thinking today. Part of me says you should eat at home all the time. You'll save money, you control what you eat ... and did I mention you'll save money?
Then another part of me says yeah, right. Sure you'll save money. You just went to the store again and spent more money. That pot of soup you made was $30 because you bought good meat. You'd be better off just eating a cheeseburger sans bun or an omelet at the restaurant. And RIP taco salad you were the greatest.
I think the end result will be somewhere in between.
Regardless, I told myself I was going to eat at home for five days straight and dammit I'm doing it.
Breakfast: Coffee
I could just stop mentioning breakfast when I don't eat anything, I suppose.
Lunch: Spicy bacon beans plus cubed ham and shredded cheddar
Very good. If I ever go keto or carnivore giving up my spicy beans will be a sad thing.
Dinner: Sesame breadsticks with cheddar cheese spread, 20 oz Dr Pepper, homemade vegetable beef soup, a slice + crust of sourdough with lots of butter
This batch of soup was a little bland. I need to kick up the seasoning next time. Oh and again I'll probably have a couple scoops of Breyers vanilla with milk. Getting close to the bottom of the carton.
Exercise: Nope. Snowy, cold and windy day. Still coughing. Sigh.

Stocks (Of Junk) Dwindling
Tuesday, January 8, 2019
Well, I can say one positive thing -- I have successfully eaten only at home for two days.
That's a good thing.
The quality of what was eaten? Well .... not so good. A lot of junk. But I'm eating my way through it. I know I should just toss everything bad and be a food nazi. I just don't have it in me this time. It's enough of a struggle doing what little right that I am.
Breakfast: Coffee
Not eating felt more normal today than it did yesterday. I may decide to go back to eating a couple bites of something that's fat and protein, but for now I'm OK with just skipping it.
Lunch: Leftover vigo yellow rice and homemade chicken soup, salt and pepper pretzel crisps
Finished off each of these items. I do have more chicken soup in the freezer, this batch was a solid meh.
Dinner: 6 slices of toasted cheese bread with butter and garlic salt. A glass or so of Dr Pepper.
Nice quality bread, a half loaf of sourdough from a semi-local bakery. Too bad I can't show restraint. Oh, and I had a couple scoops of Breyers vanilla ice cream with milk in a glass too. I still have some of that left, at least another day or two.
Exercise: lol no
Another crummy day outside, tomorrow likely to be worse. I still feel like crap, though I'm coughing less tonight finally. Sleep schedule remains not conducive to walking, I may have to start with evenings when I feel up to it.

Okay Like I've Never Done This Before
Monday, January 7, 2018
Here we go. Not expecting perfection, but at least we're going to put a stop to some things. The endless fast food. Sugary crap. Pizzas by the dozens.
Major challenge this week -- eat at home. I have lots of stuff stocked in the freezer. Vegetable beef soup, stew, spicy beans. I can thaw, heat and eat. I have breakfast foods. I've got chicken soup I made yesterday. If I really need breakfast I have cheese and eggs. Maybe I'll hard boil a couple.
Go.
Breakfast: Coffee
Ugh. I hate first days. And it sure didn't help that I felt like complete garbage this morning. The illness I thought was largely defeated yesterday is back. Sigh.
Lunch: Spicy bacon beans plus a couple ounces of Mejier cubed ham
Freezer meal, plus I picked up a convenient package of cubed/diced ham (for whatever reason they offer multiple cut sizes). Always tasty, though I'm probably going to be hungry this afternoon.
Dinner: Salt and pepper pretzel crisps with bar cheez, raspberry lemonade, 5 slices sourdough with butter, garlic salt and italian cheese.
Epic fail, of course. You don't let yourself get that hungry. May clean up a little ice cream later too.
Exercise: Nope. Between feeling awful and miserable rainy weather no chance.

A New Nadir Nearly
Tuesday, January 2, 2018
Ugh.
The rampage has continued largely unabated. Mentally I'm ready to get back on track, but I came down with something yesterday afternoon and I'm just not able to make a serious change when I feel like garbage.
It needs to happen though. Soon.

Much From Little
Tuesday, December 11, 2018
An unexpected (and if you think about it, utterly pathetic) bit of triumph this morning. Woke up at 4:45. Didn't need to go back to sleep, felt fine. Actually managed to get myself motivated and out the door for a short walk! Okay, it took a while to get there and it was a very short walk, but I got outside. I'll take it.
Yesterday evening was also unusually productive. I had a list of things to do and actually accomplished a number of them. It helped that I didn't turn on the TV or sit in the recliner. Time didn't zip by as fast. Happy.
Breakfast: Coffee
Lunch: Bowl of spicy beans with a little shredded cheddar, Wendy's single, 4 pc chicken nuggets
I probably should have had a little breakfast, it was a long time until lunch and I wasn't confident that I would be sated with the bowl of beans. Went with a cheap (coupon) fast food top up - a terrible choice nutritionally but I'm not going to fret.
Dinner: Dominos brooklyn pizza with pepperoni ham and jalapeno. Five Guys cheeseburger all the way and chocolate malt shake
EPIC FAIL. Tired and hungry, then seduced by free stuff.
Exercise: Yes! A very short walk, only a little over 10 minutes. A few blocks. I am counting it though since it was purposeful.
My feet did not feel good this morning although they seemed to hurt less once I got going. I am definitely concerned about them but we'll see if I can fight through and they improve over time. Also of note, I don't live in as nice of a neighborhood as when I used to walk consistently a few years ago now. It's not unsafe, just not as pleasant to walk. I'll have to think about routes to take.

Crashed Then Re-Crashed Then Added Gasoline
Monday, December 10, 2018
Yikes. That's about all I can say about a month of just abysmal eating. Binged beyond all reason. And my waistline shows it -- big time. Too many pizzas. Burgers. Sweets. Dr. Pepper. Pure garbage. I could re-create a decent portion of it since I save receipts until they're noted for budget purposes, but I'm already not feeling good about this.
So. Today is a transition day as I try to get back to doing better. Not perfect, certainly. Perfection is extra difficult this time of year. But better. Most of the time. I made up a batch of soup and a batch of spicy beans about a week ago so I have some of those tucked away in the freezer. I've been making homemade pizzas some and have dough in the freezer. One of my objectives this week is to think of other things I can make on the weekend, portion and freeze.
Breakfast: Coffee
Lunch: 3 egg omelet with bacon, ham, sausage, cheddar cheese, sour cream. 2 slices homemade wheat toast with butter
Out to lunch today, haven't been to this place in a while. Pretty good meal.
Dinner:CF ground sirloin in hamburger gravy with peas, 16" ham, salami and cheese grinder, mashed potatoes, Dr. Pepper
Edit: Left work late so I opted for the grinder. I did prepare mashed potatoes for the next couple days later in the evening and had a bit left over so I ate that.
Exercise: Nope. My feet have been feeling a little better of late, so that's a plus. I'm still not moving much though.

Sunday Rainday
Sunday, November 4, 2018
I'm actually hoping for rain. I'd like a convenient excuse to stay home and putter.
A little bloated this morning. Ate late and I shouldn't have.
Breakfast: 2 eggs over medium in butter, hash browns in butter, 4 strips bacon, coffee
I find that I like my hash browns less toasty.
Lunch: Homemade italian sausage pizza
Exquisite. That's 2/3 this weekend. Interesting that I don't really mind the taste of toasted cornmeal but the excess flour I tried yesterday to keep my pizza from sticking to the peel really detracteded from the flavor of the pie.
Dinner: hamburger, cheese, pickle and mustard, salad w ranch, 12 oz Miller Lite
Also: McD chicken mcnuggets w sweet and sour, double cheeseburger, Dr Pepper
Exercise: Nope. Rainy day.

A Bust So Standard
Saturday, November 3, 2018
Weekends, man.
Breakfast: 2 eggs scrambled, 4 strips bacon, small avocado, coffee
Honestly I think scrambled is my least favorite way to eat eggs.
Lunch: Ground beef and bean chili with lots of cheese, sour cream, jalapenos. 32 oz Miller Lite
Snack: Chips and onion dip
Dinner: Homemade italian sausage pizza
Not my best effort. Too much flour on the peel. I may have to try parchment. On the other hand, I did confirm that giving the dough more time to come to room temp makes for a better stretch.
Exercise: 18 holes with cart
Felt good. Even got in a little jogging while collecting wayward shots. Feet were a little cranky afterward, but not as bad as many times.

Putting The No In November
Friday, November 2, 2018
Glad it's the end of the week. Had enough.
Breakfast: Coffee
Lunch: Southern sausage omelet, coffee
Didn't seem like it had mushrooms this time. Which was fine.
Dinner: Homemade pepperoni pizza
I like the homemade pizza. A lot. But man I'm not used to having dinner between 7:30 and 8:00. It takes a while for the dough to warm up and the baking steel to heat sufficiently.
Edit: This was insanely good. Seriously, I think homemade pizza with 72 hour crust is going to ruin most same day crust commercial pizzas for me.
Exercise: Nope. Feet are about normal today at least.

I wasn't expecting the scale to be down after last night's pizza but OKAY!
Breakfast: Coffee
Lunch: Ham sandwich with bun, potato salad, coffee
Work event, this was the best of the buffet -- I skipped the chips and cookies. About all I can say is at least I kept it moderate.
Dinner: Qdoba brisket bowl. In: small scoop rice, queso diablo, sour cream.
Good as always.
Exercise: Nope. I did quite a bit of extra walking, including a few blocks for a work event, but not sustained to the point where I could count it.

So Close
Wednesday, October 31, 2018
Today really should have been the day. I woke up at 4:15. I was awake. Awake enough that I didn't get back to sleep until 5:30 or so. It would have been a trivial exercise to get dressed and go walk.
I didn't.
Maybe if I hadn't struggled with falling asleep until well after midnight. Maybe if I hadn't just known that today would suck -- as expected it was very hard to get going when I woke up again. Maybe.
Maybe it'll be tomorrow.
Sigh.
Breakfast: Coffee
Lunch: Half farmer's breakfast with reduced potato, 4 strips bacon
Got more potato and an extra strip of bacon today. I did manage to pull out some of the extra potato.
Dinner: Pepperoni pizza.
Oops.
Exercise: Nope.

Ready For A Leap
Tuesday, October 30, 2018
Here's hoping for a leap forward in November. I've been kinda floating around the same range here for a while now -- due to extensive fail, of course, but also due to my unwillingness to make more changes and inability to get going on exercise.
Breakfast: Coffee
Actively wanted some breakfast today. But it wasn't like I suffered by not having any.
Lunch: 1/2 Farmer scramble with reduced potato, 3 strips bacon
Good as usual. Nailed the reduced potato today too which was a bonus.
Dinner: Qdoba brisket bowl. In: small scoop rice, queso diablo. Out: Sour cream
Satisfactory.
Exercise: Nope. Very tired this morning, no way was I going to get up. Raining tonight.

Honestly I have no idea what to expect most days when I step on the scale. Today, I guessed up. It wasn't. Now if I could just exercise consistently and cut some more carbs.
On that subject, I didn't wear foot sleeves yesterday, just socks and house shoes and my feet felt great. Today, again no sleeves but tonight they're barking a little. Back to the sleeves tomorrow I think. I have to say it was awful nice yesterday to have a zero pain day.
Breakfast: Coffee
Didn't even have time for two cups.
Lunch: Jimmy Johns italian night club plus pickle and peppers on wheat sub bun
Speaking of no time. Again the wheat sub bun was a major upgrade over regular JJs.
Dinner: 4 ground beef tacos mexican style plus cheese and hot sauce
Forgot to take a picture. Standard stuff.
Exercise: Nope.

Weak End
Sunday, October 28, 2018
Dedication is kinda shaky right now. I should get focused, break the cycle of weekend slacking. This weekend won't be as bad as last weekend, but still, it's not good.
Breakfast: 2 eggs over medium, 4 strips Wright thick applewood bacon, Alexia hash browns in butter, coffee
Just the GOAT with a bit less bacon. Went with less due to the use of smaller pan.
Lunch: Homemade italian sausage pizza
Last of this week's dough balls. Exquisite.
Dinner: Roast beef, gravy, four cheese potatoes, carrots, roll with butter, 12 oz Miller Lite
Excessive.
Exercise: Nope. Dreary, rainy day.

Delay of Game
Saturday, October 27, 2018
I've noticed lately that I've been eating later. No breakfast most days and the last couple lunch has been at 2:00 or so due to business. Dinner last night was 7:30 or so. Most of the time hunger really hasn't been an issue at all.
Breakfast: McD sausage patty with cheese, coffee
I mean, except for today. Stopped for coffee so I grabbed a dollar menu sandwich, hold the english muffin.
Lunch: Chips and cheddar jalapeno dip, 16 oz Miller Lite
Garbage. Pure garbage.
Dinner: Homemade italian sausage pizza
Exercise: 18 holes with cart

I've noticed lately that I've been eating later. No breakfast most days and the last couple lunch has been at 2:00 or so due to business. Dinner last night was 7:30 or so. Most of the time hunger really hasn't been an issue at all.
Breakfast: McD sausage patty with cheese, coffee
I mean, except for today. Stopped for coffee so I grabbed a dollar menu sandwich, hold the english muffin.
Lunch: Chips and cheddar jalapeno dip, 16 oz Miller Lite
Garbage. Pure garbage.
Dinner: Homemade italian sausage pizza

At Least You Made It
Friday, October 26, 2018
Phew. Made it through the end of the week. Without being ended or leaving a trail of bodies in my wake. The latter would have required a lot more energy than I had. I'm just fried.
Breakfast: Coffee
Lunch: Meat lover's omelet with bacon, ham, sausage and cheddar cheese. 2 slices raisin toast
Second time I've been to this place and this was much better than what I had last time. A little on the pricey side, but lots of food and pretty good.
Dinner: Homemade pepperoni pizza
If I'm going to have pizza this is a decent way to do it. By making the dough ahead a few days it's possibly a bit easier to digest (plus it tastes great) and I can keep the size manageable. Other than burning the roof of my mouth all good. We'll see what the scale says in the morning though -- there may still be some wheat bloat.
Exercise: Nope

Increasingly Drained
Thursday, October 25, 2018
It's been a long and draining week. I'm tired. Looking forward to making it through tomorrow and then shutting down for the weekend.
Breakfast: Coffee
Lunch: Jimmy Johns italian night sub on 9 grain wheat
I'm not a big JJ's fan but this was a very good sandwich.
Dinner: Bowl of spicy beans with some shredded cheddar cheese, 4 leftover oatcakes, 1 oz raisins
Nothing sounded particularly good tonight. I had thawed the beans, so eventually I settled on them. Ate the raisins while waiting for them and then the oatcakes afterward when still hungry.
Exercise: Nope.

Flood Ungated
Wednesday, October 24, 2018
The release of water retained during the binge continues. It is quite interesting how much a couple pounds of liquid impacts how you feel and look.
Breakfast: Coffee
Lunch: Omelet with sausage, mushroom, green pepper, onion and cheese, topped with sausage gravy. Coffee
This was pretty good. Will get again.
Dinner: Qdoba brisket bowl. In: rice, queso diablo. Out: Sour cream
A lot of my favorite burrio artists working tonight. Good stuff.
Exercise: Nope.
One of these days I will get up. I will wait out the plantar fascitis pain. And I will walk.

Off It Goes In Part
Tuesday, October 23, 2018
At least some of the bloat has left. Now if I can just not eat six million carbs again anytime soon. And exercise. Yeah. That.
Breakfast: Coffee
Lunch: Farmer's breakfast half with less potato, 4 strips bacon
Good, but not their finest effort.
Dinner: Qdoba brisket bowl latest version plus a scoop of rice
The customer after me did it better, getting double pork, no beans or rice ... but then she got tortilla strips. Never mind.
Exercise: Nope

Bender Bloat
Monday, October 22, 2018
It's hard coming off a bender and this was one of my worst ones ever. By last night, I was in rough shape. I feel more normal tonight and eliminated extra liquid today, so things are more or less back on track. I was extra hungry tonight, resulting in the "dessert".
Breakfast: Coffee
Lunch: Wendy's double, no bun, plain (just meat and cheese)
Dinner: 4 mexican style tacos plus cheese and hot sauce
Dessert: Fage 5% plain yogurt with frozen raspberries
Exercise: Nope. Sleep schedule is a mess too.

Yikes. I did restock a few things at the farm.
Breakfast: GOAT, extra bacon. Coffee
Lunch: Chips and jalapeno cheddar dip, Dr. Pepper

I guess I had two dinners. Or a really late lunch and a dinner. Anyway, delicious.
Exercise: Nope.

Acidity Too Much
Friday, October 19, 2018
Not feeling it again today. Crashed last night about 9, woke up at 2, back to sleep at 3, up at 8. I think the thing that will finally get me off the pizza kick is the fact that my stomach just can't handle the acidity of the tomato sauce at night. I end up with heartburn or reflux or something and it's unpleasant.
Lots of bad stuff on today's menu. Hoping to get to the farm tomorrow, it would be nice to restock a few things.
Breakfast: TB steak crunchwrap, coffee
Lunch: Qdoba brisket bowl, old school
Dinner part 1: McD double cheeseburger, Dr Pepper
Dinner part 2: Homemade pepperoni pizza
Exericse: Nope. Still fighting this sinus thing that's going around.
