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

[Catrin]

The thighs baked with fennel sounds interesting Crankin - but I always seem to just narrowly avoid an ER visit every time I try to start cutting fennel. Fennel and Jicama

Dinner turned out to be another healing bone-broth "soup" (for lack of a better name) that was filled with chopped sweet potato, roasted chicken, an egg, chard and spices. Followed with a bit of 85% dark chocolate Still had to do the protein shake though to bump my numbers up a bit. Made another batch of mustard-glazed baked chicken thighs for the next few days, and set some things into the fridge to thaw for chili.

KB training session was far more a butt-kicker than my group yesterday was. Very different instructor, but he has started to lay it on me - and my body took it better than I had hoped. I seem to be on the mend. Now I just need to lose the last of this cough...

[Crankin]

I use my biggest knife to cut the fennel bulb.
half a banana before boot camp
B: small bowl of whole wheat organic flakes and almond milk with blueberries and a slice of Machengo cheese... I was rushed to get to the school I go to on Thursdays
L: I met my old boss for lunch. Had a very small and nouveau type salad Nicoise, but I did sample one piece of pita and some sort of won ton thing with hummus and a few olives, more coffee
S: 6 inch whole wheat pita with hummus. I had to go to the office at 5 and stay until almost 7, and that lunch was not doing it!
D: salmon salad with arugula, 2 squares dark chocolate
