Weigh in bright and early Friday: 121.4

I gained almost a pound. This is the first time since December. I did eat more calories, a lot more. I had problems with my appetite all week. Plus, I think last week my weight was artificially low as a pound and a half loss seemed too much.

Out of cereal, so I had something else for breakfast today!

3 slices bacon, two slices cinnamon toast, chai with milk and sugar
Pulled pork sandwich with BBQ sauce
Iced matcha latte
~2 glasses of wine (white and red), bits of salad (with strawberries and melon pieces), chicken, bean and orzo salad, some nice cheese and a less-nice dried fig, banana with almond butter and chocolate.
Bread with red pepper hummus and slightly too much salami. It was tasty, though...

I've been having a hard time with food lately. My appetite has been tremendous since I upped my exercise. Plus, I have been traveling and there are many temptations on the road. Yesterday I started fine with some no oil added granola, blueberries, raspberries, and a third of a banana, with milk for breakfast (400 calories worth). Then I had a ride and afterwords an ounce of cheese and two dates (150 calories). Now I am already up to 550 with a daily limit of 1200. Then I really blew it, I had a homemade bar made by a neighbor. It had to be 400 calories. Now I am up to 950 and it is barely noon and I only have 250 left. I struggled and had some salmon pasta salad with lots of cilantro, totaling about 300 calories to finish out the day barely over my limit. But what I ate was terrible, I can't afford a 400 calorie bar and still get good nutrition. And no vegetables to speak of!

Today I started out with an egg and Canadian bacon, plus two carrots, totaling 200 calories. I hope the dose of protein helps keep my appetite in check. And today I eat some veggies!
