What did you eat today?

[Crankin]

B: 2 waffles with walnuts, dried cranberries, 1.5 turkey sausages, strawberries, blueberries, coffee
30 mile ride, moderately hilly. Ate a Lara Bar during the ride, one bottle of water
L: farro burger patty, 1/4 avocado, small sweet potato, an apple, more water
S: nibbled on red pepper slices and carrots while I was cooking dinner
D: I made vegetarian lentil soup with dumplings. The recipe was in the newspaper... really good, but next time I am going to use the low salt veggie broth instead of the bullion cubes and probably forgo the dumplings. I feel all puffy from the salt this morning and my weight is up.
glass of red wine

Weight was down this morning by 3 pounds, I KNOW I've not been eating enough from being sick but goodness, probably just less water retention since I've not been on my usual workout schedule this week. This is not the way I want to hit my weight goal! Rest day today, though part of me really wants to go out and do some trail running. Sunny day, supposed to reach the high 50's today...but still have a pretty deep cough so...nope. I want to be 100%, or as close to it as I can manage, for my group training Tuesday, and kettlebell training on Wed. I worked out yesterday with kettlebells at home and am resisting that idea now.

B: 2 eggs over a few ounces of roasted butternut squash
L: crab salad (crab, veggies, an egg and homemade mayo)...there wasn't that much of it but I couldn't eat it all

I need some calories though, will probably have a banana and a couple squares of chocolate in a bit, or else some banana and coconut manna

D: don't know yet, will probably roast some chicken and kale with the remainder of some spaghetti squash, small salad with home-made dressing.

[Crankin]

B: eggs, lox, and onions, blueberries and strawberries, slice of spelt toast, coffee
L: 2 butter lettuce cups with home made chicken salad/walnuts, an apple
D: scrod in a curry sauce with veggies, over sweet potato. sliced mango. Friends came over and she brought some endive with sweet potato and bacon for apps. glass of red wine.
Today was an active rest day, with a 2 mile walk. I was pretty sore from riding yesterday

Weight down yet again this morning, at this rate I MIGHT hit 120 this week. I still think it is just due to water loss and being off my usual fitness schedule. I am getting back to that, slowly but surely as I recovery from this allergy/asthmatic bronchitis/plague thing I've fought for the last solid week. Whatever my weight is currently doing, it will bounce back to the usual range once I am recovered. I am making an effort to eat a bit more just in case my caloric intake is lower than I think it is:

Yesterday:

B: 5 ounces of my current ground pork/veggie/egg casserole
Group training session that featured a functional movement screen and correctives - much lower intensity level than usual
L: Big a*s salad with lots of veggies, pecans, raisins, chicken and home-made dressing
D: bone broth with lots of veggies, chard, more chicken and roasted butternut squash on the side with a bit of butter + a few pecans. Small amount of 85% dark chocolate

Today:

B: See yesterday, but a bit more of it
L: Big a*s salad with lots of veggies, pecans, chicken and home-made dressing
I do have a kettlebell training group at lunch, so I brought some extra egg casserole for a snack. Protein shake would be fine, but trying to get my calories up a bit...
D:???? Roast chicken and veggies if I don't feel like cooking, we will see

I AM starting to finally feel better though

[Crankin]

It sounds like you've had quite a time. I totally get the bronchial/asthma thing!
B: 2 egg omelette with spinach and grated cheddar, 1/4 avocado, an orange, coffee
L: chicken salad with walnuts and dried cranberries
rode to meet friends for coffee, 7.2 miles, had some decaf, then rode 14 miles home, the long way
S: slice of raisin spelt bread with sun nut butter
D: 2 chicken thighs, sauted and then baked with fennel and green onions. Whole wheat cous cous. 2 squares dark chocolate
