What did you eat today?

[Crankin]

OK, I'm back. I won't go into what I ate on vacation. Most of it wasn't awful, but it wasn't my usual, either. Lots of wine and beer, as well as 2 nights of gelato. Of course the breakfasts at the B and B were not spartan, but not the worst, either, in that they had turkey bacon, chicken sausage, and the portions were not huge.

Today
B: egg white omelette with lox and goat cheese, coffee
L: veggie burger patty on 2 slices of tomato, cole slaw, blueberries, half a cup of tomato red pepper soup
S: two pieces of Machengo cheese, whole wheat pita chips
D: "pizza" on whole wheat naan, with fig preserve pesto, goat cheese, toasted walnuts. I ate the whole naan; probably could have done with half.

I fail to see how two nights of gelato is a bad thing. (That was something I didn't take advantage of before I left Cleveland...)

B: Glass of milk with chai.
L: Bowl of cereal with milk
S: Cherries, slice of cake, wasabi peas
D: Sweet and sour chicken (homemade), with brown rice and some kind of vegetable (broccoli? Don't know what my mom threw in the pot when I wasn't looking!)
Dessert: Probably a slice of leftover cheesecake and fruit of some kind.

I've decided that I am eating too many carbs and too much fat on non-ride days. I've gained a little weight and body fat which I am not happy about - riding more will take care of that but I need to keep a tighter rein on my diet for non-ride days.

Yesterday:

B: Steel cut oats with blueberries, a little PB + skim milk and coffee
S: Chobani non-fat yogurt
L: two thin slices whole wheat sourdough bread with two slices turkey bacon, sprouts and tomato. Apple.
S: banana
D: Cliff bar
S: small amount of bran cereal with low-fat chocolate milk....I need to go shopping.

D: strawberry lassi and macrobiotic thai dumplings

B: Greek yogurt, strawberries, almonds, dried cranberries
L: half a ham and low fat provolone sandwich on whole wheat, Dijon mustard, an apple
S: packet of TJ's nuts and cranberries, little piece of Cojita cheese
D: Baked haddock with yogurt/parmesan topping, sweet potato, salad with goat cheese, walnuts, 2 pieces of dark chocolate

I finally got up the nerve to weigh myself today (after vacation and being sick). Not the worst, but I have work to do.
