What did you eat today?

[Crankin]

This morning I went downstairs at 6 AM, to find 2 freshly made waffles waiting for me. I added 2 pieces of turkey bacon and a sliced peach from the farm stand, and coffee.
Oh oh. Writing this down made me remember that I forgot to take my calcium, and drink my V8. I guess the waffles startled me so much, I forgot my normal routine.
I wish I could have ridden to my internship today. I was jealous when DH rode off, even though it's 49 F out right now. I will ride (a very short ride) when I get home.

Oy, I started my day off in the wrong way again...but I was late so I skipped making my own breakfast (I need to stop this).

B: cinnamon chip scone, coffee w skim milk
S: none
L: 1 slice leftvover veggie pizza, 2 cups frozen veggies
S: none
D: not sure...probably leftover portuguese kale soup with french bread and a salad.

No snacking for me today since I'll be on the test floor or in the lab all day and no food or drink is allowed. I have to remind myself at least once an hour to go get a drink of water at least or I'll be terribly dehydrated by the end of the day, too.

I really need to stop reading this thread. Everytime I read a post, I get hungry. Some of the meals that you are eating sound sooo good. Question though - does anyone on TE ever have a glass of wine or bottle of beer in the evening to unwind? Or am I the only one?

You are not alone, believe me.

Whew! Glad to hear it.

Just a glass???

[pfunk12]

Okay, if I'm confessing...2 glasses. Preferably red wine since it's healthy.

Yeah for reals!!! More like a shot of gin or jameson for me, if that counts

8am wake
B: 2 cups of black tea with honey and soymilk. Orange mangos raisins and blueberries
L: Big Big salad with lots of veggies and 1/2 cup quinoa. 2 Corn Tortilla.
S: 1/4 chocolate bar. Shot of espresso with soymilk and sugar. Kombucha.
D: 3 slices plain french bread. Orange. Arugula salad. One belgium beer.

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...

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?
