What did you eat today?

[aquamoose32]

Ha, I haven't had that time of the month in 9 years...

Well ****...what's your secret? BC? That must be nice! I used to not get my period for about 3 years, but I still noticed each month I had very very slight symptoms like bloating and being cranky once a month. Maybe it's just your body telling you you need to rest? We are living breathing things, we flux, if you know what i mean.


B: black tea with honey
1/2 cup oatmeal
i pear

35 mile ride
1/2 power bar

L: Mushroom and Sorrel salad with buckwheat and rice
2 beers
more tea herbal

S: 3/4 cup or so of granola

D:2 glasses of wine, 1 slice of bread with spicy red sause, 1 glass orange juice

I think i drink too much

Aquamoose, you must be young....
I am 9 years post menopause. Yes, I was pretty young (48) when it happened, but I was so thankful, after ten years of horrible peri-menopause symptoms.

Feeling a bit better today and weight is almost back to normal. But, as you can see, I ate hardly anything yesterday and I woke up in the middle of the night, ravenous.

non fat Greek yogurt and blueberries, herbal tea

2 cups of coffee, egg white omelette with tomato pesto and goat cheese, an apple

baked sole with a panko and parmesan topping, whole wheat cous cous with zucchini and grape tomatoes, 2 squares dark chocolate

watching portion sizes now

Yesterday:
Cereal with 1%

No ride for me--I've been exhausted lately for no reason that I can think of.

Two slices of whole wheat-sunflower seed toast with garlic hummus
Handful of wasabi peas

Wine tasting at Whole Foods--equivalent of ~1.5 glasses of wine (I split the remaining half glass between my parents because I really didn't like it!), small amounts of salad, pork, salmon, bread, ricotta, and pound cake...all but the salmon had blueberries in it. (I think there was a blueberry surplus!)

Salad with mixed greens, carrots, celery and tomatoes, bread with a few different types of cheeses, grapes

[goldfinch]

I went to a dutch oven cook-off. No idea how many calories I had. A thousand maybe?

[Crankin]

2 slices low salt ham, blueberries, slice of cheese, coffee

brunch with son and DIL (we always do father's day on Saturday to avoid being around screaming kids): the "salad plate" which was a scoop of curried chicken salad, hummus and whole wheat pita chips, veggies marinated in oil and vinegar, coffee

friends came over for dinner. we made home made sangria... sat out on the deck and drank that, with guacamole, pita, and cheese
spicy flank steak with home made salsa, sweet potatoes, salad, fresh strawberries and blueberries

[Owlie]

Cereal with 1%
Glass of milk with chai stuff
Gazpacho, grilled cheese sandwich, grapes
Possibly the most bland Indian food in existence: Rogan josh (lamb in a cream-based red sauce), half a veggie samosa, 2 vegetable pakoras, a summer squash and cauliflower mixture (covered with butter, it appeared ), a couple scoops of basmati rice, and a serving of pistachio ice cream.

I never want to eat again.

yesterday

2 eggs, 2 slices ww toast
English muffin with cheese
Indian lunch. My life is complete now that there's a new Indian restaurant nearby! Saag paneer, alu gobi, rice, samosa and naan. Heaven.
Had the leftovers for dinner, but it wasn't quite enough. So...
Cereal with blueberries
a peach and a pear
slice of ww bead with pb

[spokewench]

2 eggs, 1 piece wg toast, coffee, 1 peach
S: 1 bowl of shredded wheat
2 singles matches - 1 granola bar in between; 1 bottle gatorade, lots of h20
couple of slices of meatloaf, ear of corn, 1 beer

I will be starving tomorrow after playing two matches back to back and not eating much. First match started at 12, second a couple hours later, so it is really hard to eat much on days like that.

Oh yes, duh! I didnt think of that haha. I'm 25. Gosh that will be the day when I no longer have to deal with this crap every month. Although at least I have something nice to blame for the fact I am 5lbs heavier each month and NEED Chocolate in my life.

B: pear
tea with honey
apple

No ride today, too many miles this week, my knees hurt. Did yoga instead.

L: Sorrel soup with beets
slice of pizza no cheese
3 tangerines

S: handful of fresh peas
1 fig bar
kombucha
black tea with almond milk and lots of honey

D: 2 slices of french bread, cranberry juice

I REALLY REALLY REALLY LIKE FRUIT.

Oh good, someone else on here in my age range!

Today:
3 slices low salt ham, an orange, 3 thin slices Machengo cheese, coffee
about an hour later, a slice of whole wheat bread with soy nut butter

50.3 mile ride. I nibbled on about 3/4 of a Luna Bar up until mile 24. At lunch, I had a turkey sandwich on a bulkie roll, with lettuce and tomato, mayo, half a packet of nuts and cranberries. Drank some plain water. I drank 1.5 bottles of Nuun on the ride and finished the Luna Bar at mile 38. Drained the bottle of plain water when we got home and finished the nuts and cranberries.

Dinner out: portobella burger with grilled red pepper, onions, mozzarella, on a bun, coleslaw. 16 oz. Blue Moon
