By the same token, I tend not to post here when I'm not trying to accomplish something in training or with fat loss. It just helps to write this stuff down somewhere for me.

Yesterday was weird because my body just wasn't that hungry.
3 eggs with parmesan for a late breakfast
half a bag of buttered movie theater popcorn
16 mile bike ride
1 oz cheese
beef shawarma on basmati rice with pickled beets

I guess I just wasn't that hungry. Today my brother and sister and their SOs are coming down to my mom's for dinner so I am putting on my chef hat.
I'm making pork butt braised with apples and herbs (optional bbq sauce and rolls), warm german potato salad, carrot and purple cabbage slaw, deviled eggs for starters (mmm).

I'm trying to find a sexy new deviled egg recipe. Maybe something with craime fraiche and herbs? If anyone has any ideas I am all ears!
I can't help with the deviled eggs, but shawarma...drool. Anyway.

Yesterday:
Cereal with 1% milk
Small white chocolate mocha
the equivalent of 2.5 glasses of wine, small amounts of salad, jambalaya, California roll, vegetarian paella (good, actually, but I think it needed that flavor from that comes from browned meat bits), chocolate truffles and peanut brittle. Yes, I was a little tipsy by the end.
12 oz frozen yogurt (non-fat strawberry/low-fat cheesecake swirl, with strawberries on top, then a layer of low-fat coconut with shredded coconut on top. I have a coconut problem.)

Today:
Big bowl of cereal with 1%
Tea (with 1% milk and sugar), 2 chocolate cookies.
Chickpea and cauliflower "curry" (really, they're just in a spicy tomato sauce...), brown rice, salad (1/2 arugula, 1/2 spring mix, with sliced radishes and Caesar dressing--it was what I had in the fridge.)
