What did you eat today?

[goldfinch]

I have been losing weight since January with only one brief plateau. The weight loss has been about a pound a week. The past week I have been on a trip in insufferably hot weather and have been riding little because of a neck/shoulder issue. For the first time in a long time keeping the calories down has been difficult. Yesterday I had a Dairy Queen kid cone. I also had three cookies and milk. And craved more junk. Ack! I ended the day with a Mike's Hard Lemonade to add 220 useless calories. But it was good! My total for the day was 1500 calories. I might even gain weight on a sedentary day on 1500 calories.

Today I am back on track. Apple and smoked fish for breakfast after walking two miles. Spring rolls sans meat for lunch--with plenty of veggies and fish sauce but few rice noodles. Black beans (with lots of Kale cooked in it) for dinner on a rice/dal homemade dosa. 1100 calories. I feel good and not near as hungry as yesterday.
