What did you eat today?

[Crankin]

B: when I came downstairs, DH had made me blueberry waffles, a treat for the weekday. I added 2 turkey sausages, and an orange, coffee
S: I ate half a banana at around 11. I was starving already.
L: I decided not to add the weight of full tupperware to my pannier today, so I went to the hospital cafeteria to get something. I tried the salad bar, instead of the prepared salad I've had before. Meh, not enough protein. That, with my apple was not enough.
S: had the second half of the banana at 2 and a Lara Bar at 4. By 6, when I was getting ready to leave and ride home, I snagged 2 animal crackers from the kitchen.
D: ate the left over chicken and fennel, with pureed parsnips. 2 squares dark chocolate.

Today:

Brekkie was the usual eggs, veggies, coffee

Lunch: big a*s salad with mixed greens, an assortment of veggies, roast chicken thigh, a few pecans and raisins with small amount of homemade dressing

30 minutes trail running/walking. More running than walking

D: last of the current batch of chili over spaghetti squash. 1/2 cup dark chocolate "Coconut Bliss" ice cream. Yummy, but I think a need a new rule for ice cream. I only crave it when it is in my freezer. So...from now on I have to actually go out to get a small dish of ice cream the rare times I actually really want it. AND, IMO, Indianapolis has one of THE best gourmet independent purveyors of ice cream out there It is too much of a temptation in my freezer and that is just too much sugar. VERY good though I've been allowing too much sugar to creep back into my diet. My weight is still lower from when I was sick but it would be nice to not re-gain the 3 pounds I lost when I was ill.
