What did you eat today?

[Crankin]

Yea, the dinner was awesome and the restaurant is in a 200 year old house. But, both DH and I woke up with ah, upset stomachs. It was either the soft serve (I forgot my Lactaid), or the very strong coffee this morning. The breakfast at this B and B is meh... Yogurt, fruit, and fattening muffins. I need my protein. Thankfully, I found some Pepto in my bag before we went on a 38 mile ride. It worked enough so I could have a burrito in the middle of the ride . But, I am just exhausted and probably a little dehydrated.

Crankin, it just sounds like fun - though sorry about the tummy problems. I am also jealous that your weather has been kind enough to get all of those good rides! It's been crazy here, it seems like the only time it is nice riding weather is when I am in the office That will change soon enough though.

Today:
B: Kashi Autumn shredded wheat cereal with 6 almonds and a few raisins, 2 whole scrambled eggs in a tsp olive oil, skim milk, coffee

2 hour spinning class (the first hour wasn't like anything I've seen before, we just rode with our eyes closed to the beat of the music and I spent much of it on my feet. Yoga-cycle class - the second hour was what I considered a way-too-easy spin class)

L: chicken curry sandwich with cashews and grapes, along with a small banana (at the gym, was starving and had errands to run before homeward bound)

S: 1/2 cup no-fat cottage cheese and 1 cup of fresh cut fruit (melon, strawberries, apple, pineapple)

D: Sweet-basil chicken sausage, last of the fruited wild rice over mixed salad greens, kale and skim milk - with a 16 ounce wonderful Oatmeal Stout.

I did finally make my workout calorie goal today

OK, to finish the rest of yesterday's meals:
When we got back from the ride, before dinner, we had 2 glasses of wine with the inn owners and some other guests. Our dinner wasn't until 8 PM, so I was ready to eat.
We went to an awesome Italian place, we had been to once, 4 years ago. I had a cup of Tuscan white bean and spinach soup (some crostini in there, too) and chicken al chianti. I ate about half of the full chicken breast, with some onions, mushrooms, in a sauce. Also ate 3 -4 of the roasted potato pieces. That was enough. I was sorry we couldn't take it home.
Today:
half a Luna Bar before 10 mile fast ride along the beach. Then we ditched the B and B breakfast and went out.
B:veggie omelette with a a little provolone, 2 slices whole wheat toast, 2 chicken apple sausages, coffee
L/S: I didn't really have lunch. On the way home from the Cape, we had to stop and sign papers for my new car, which I am getting tomorrow. I ate the rest of the Luna Bar and when I got home I ate a slice of Ezekial bread with hummus and some nuts and cranberries
D: ratatouille (from a Paleo recipe) over some pasta made of quinoa and amaranth, 2 squares dark chocolate
S: apple slices with soy nut butter
back on track tomorrow...

Yesterday:
B:Cereal, 1%. Black tea with half-and-half and sugar.
L: some seriously questionable peanut noodles. I think they were in the fridge a little too long...
D: Cheese on toast (white cheddar on one, Cotswold on the other), strawberries, a couple pieces of chocolate

Today:
Cereal with 1%
Half a bottle of coconut water stuff
19.2 mile ride. I booked it on the way back to avoid rain, which never materialized.
McD's at the turnaround point. I think I need to eat more before I ride. (6 chicken nuggets, small fries, 3/4 of a small Coke (incl. ice))
Chai latte on the way home.
Tiny bag of chocolate caramels, the other half of the coconut water
Onion+egg fried in butter, with grated white cheddar and Red Dragon on whole wheat toast. SO good. (Bacon would be an interesting addition...) Strawberries.
Water's on for decaf tea and a mini pastry.

I need to eat more veggies. Fixings are in the fridge for a mango-strawberry lassi tomorrow morning, and I have to work out what I'm eating for lunch and dinner for the rest of the week...Hm.

Today:

B: Kashi Autumn shredded wheat cereal with 6 almonds and a few raisins, 2 whole egg + in egg white, skim milk, coffee
S: a few almonds and raisins
L: Went to an Indian restaurant with a friend and had a little of this and that - a piece of bread, a little chicken, a taste of goat (curious), a little rice, some spinach, 2 fried zucchini, a little salad, a bit of rice pudding.
S: banana

90 minute workout

Cliff Builders bar on the way home - so I just had a banana, a bit of PB and some skim milk to finish off my impromptu "dinner". It is really hard to track calories when I've eaten out... I don't think I did too badly at lunch but it is hard to say.

[Crankin]

B: Irish oatmeal with blueberries, 4 turkey roll ups with low fat chive cream cheese, coffee
L: left over ratatouille, an apple

I may have to try to make ratatouille. Sounds pretty good to me.
