It is like midnight my time, or close to it, and am exhausted after that meal & very long travel day + first conference session. I will have to do much better if I've any hope of weighing the same Thursday.
Alarm is set for a very early trip to the fitness center ;)
That sounds like a very tasty day!Quote:

I've taken myself to a diner this morning and I'm waiting for my French toast, bacon, and homefries! Yum.
B: half c. cornflakes, tea and some strawberries. Cycled just for 10 kms. to go shopping. Then:
eggs benedict (with 2 poached eggs), with bechamel sauce over peameal bacon slice. Honest, I 'm glad there was no hollandaise sauce. I haven't eaten this amount of real eggs in the past 5 months! Homemade hash browns. Coffee with milk

I feel guilty but haven't had eggs benedict in almost 2 yrs.!
Today:

One gravel bike ride...enter Cujo

the more I ride, the more I eat
yesterday:
3 slices challah french toast, blueberries/banana, one slice of low salt ham, coffee
half a Luna Bar and some nuts and cranberries during a 23 mile ride I was sweeping. It involved me staying behind people that were too slow for the group they were in, finally convincing them to wait for the slower group, and then me sprinting like crazy to catch up with DH and the rest of the group.
half a turkey sandwich on whole wheat with provolone and tomato, cup of Italian wedding soup, and a side of Israeli cous cous
dinner at my 40th HS reunion (of the school I didn't get to graduate from when I moved) glass of red wine, salmon, asparagus, whipped sweet potato, one roll, and a small fruit tart.
Yeah for reals!!! More like a shot of gin or jameson for me, if that counts :DQuote:

D: 3 slices plain french bread. Orange. Arugula salad. One belgium beer.
DD: gin and juice!
2am bed
No ride for the past few days. Did about 250 miles last week so I'm taking it easy this week. Do you think it matters what time you wake up and go to bed?
Getting better and back to normal:
B: 3 scrambled egg whites & no-fat cottage cheese with whole wheat English muffin
S: apple with little bit of PB
L: small skinless roasted chicken breast with a small piece of turkey sausage, steamed green beans and a few broccoli sprouts.
D: 1 slice toasted Exekial bread with a couple slices uncured turkey bacon, onion, and romaine lettuce, fresh strawberries with no-fat plain yogurt. Delightful Porter to go with it :)
No exercise today, sadly, but the leg probably needed a break after the insult it was given yesterday...
Gee, let's see if I can remember it all - had a long ride (for me) so ate a LOT!
B - cereal with fruit, protein powder, walnuts, almond milk; 2 c. coffee
46 mile bike ride.
Snacks on ride - homemade oatmeal/raisin bar, Pepperidge farm gold fish, scoop of coffee ice cream w/cone at an ice cream parlor :D
Late lunch - salmon wrap w/lettuce, limeade, lite beer (rehydrating!)
S - carrot/celery/spinach/oj blender drink
D - kale enchiladas, black beans w/sour cream, pile of lettuce w/salsa, chips, 1 (strong) margarita
I have tried mixing protein powder in milk for my cereal, but can't abide the taste - how do you manage it? What brand do you use?
I use 1 scoop of Trader Joe's Vanilla soy protein powder onto my cereal before I put my (vanilla almond) milk on. Curious what others do - the little bit of powder doesn't bother me at all.
B: one blueberry pancake and a slice of ham, coffee
L: veggie burger (plain, no roll), cole slaw, Israeli cous cous with cranberries/nuts
D: 2 homemade chili rellenos. quite a labor intensive process, but they were good and since the recipe was from Cooking Light, not deep fried with a side of black beans, one beer
2 eggs, 2 slices multigrain bread
slice of ww bread with pb
4 slices of no cheese veggie pizza (with vegan friend)
1 pate de fruit
potato chips
cheese quesadilla with salsa and sour cream (I'm not vegan :rolleyes:)
a slice of blueberry cake, and the last bit of chocolate fondant
mixed nuts
2 eggs, 1 english muffin, coffee
2 leftover pork ribs, watermelon
1 glass of wine watching motorcycle racing
1 large salad, lettuce, tomato, red bell pepper, tomato, roasted beets, blue cheese crumbles and italian dressing, 1/2 grilled chicken breast, 1 glass red wine
1 drumstick ice cream treat
Mine barely tastes, and the taste it does have is not unpleasant at all, very bland. Gets lost in the much more flavorful almond milk I use. It's a vanilla whey powder, no sweeteners. I buy it from trueprotein.com. You can make up a custom blend, add various things, whatever. I've been very happy with their service and product.Quote:
