What did you eat today?

[Crankin]

I'm going to skip the weekend eating. Not terrible food, just a lot of eating out.
Boot camp this morning, after a night with almost no sleep (always on Sunday)
B: 3/4 cup plain no fat Greek yogurt, wild blueberries, walnuts, a sliced peach, slice of ww spelt bread with almond butter, coffee
L:veggie salad with cannelloni beans, an apple
S: I came home for about 45 minutes before my last session; ate a 6 inch whole wheat pita with hummus and did paperwork
walked for about 40 minutes with my client
D: veggie protein with black beans, salsa, 2 corn tortillas, 1/4 avocado, tomato, glass of red wine
I am about to keel over from tiredness. Still have one more note to write.
Leaving for 10 days in Italy (8 days Torino, 2 Milan) on Wednesday. No cycling involved, but will be doing some hiking, maybe rent a city bike. Lots of walking, but mostly eating! Then, I'll be home for 5 days and fly out to Monterrey/Salinas for my former exchange student's party celebrating his wedding, which took place a few months ago, in Berlin. Just a 3 day trip, but again. lots of food (his wife is Mexican-American).

I'm back!
Our family has recently had to go gluten-/sugar-free. Gluten-free because my 4yo son was experiencing significant neurological development delays (disruption might be a better word than delay) and sugar-free because my daughter was having chronic bladder-/yeast-infections and other digestive tract issues. She is only supposed to have 12 grams of sugar a day for the next two months--that includes naturally occurring sugar. . . . Needless to say its been a challenge and I am the Health Hutt's new best customer! My poor daughter cannot even eat fruit right now while the rest of us have simply given up 'added' or 'refined' sugars.

Breakfast: Eggs and salad with homemade salad dressing (apple cider vinegar, dijon mustard, almonds, white wine, and a couple of raspberries)
Snack: Chocolate Chip Bar (made from coconut/arrowroot flour, Cream of Buckwheat, Quinoa Flakes, Coconut Oil, Sunbutter, and just a smidge of honey and Enjoy Life chocolate chips)
Lunch: Big Salad with homemade salad dressing, almonds and an apple
Snack: Carrot Sticks
Dinner: Roasted Vegetables: Beets, broccoli, cauliflower, onion, sweet potato and Kale
Dessert: Green Smoothie: Kale, parsley, scoop of Endura (recovery mix), coconut milk, frozen blueberries and raspberries.
Sometime today when I'm feeling hungry, because I will: A banana with a smear of Krema Peanut Butter (YUM!)
