Vacation Is Over
Okay, I've eaten enough. My parents came to town, we ate out and ate *a lot*, my weight is higher than it's been in three years (though some of that is muscle weight, some of it is not!) and I'm both done with the campaigns and done with my vacation.
Well, one is never really done with the campaigns, since a contract campaign follows the organizing campaign, but the contract campaign is less stressful for me than the organizing phase, and my hours will always be crazy but not quite as crazy... for a little while... I think.
Anyhow, back to careful tracking, done with vaca.
I actually find it easier to calculate my nutrition at the beginning of the day, rather than at the end when it's usually too late to do anything much about it. That way I actually make a plan. This is extreme quotidian, with a little wiggle room left in for anything else I might want to eat over the course of the day. And I forgot to put in my salsa. Ooops.
This is:
breakfast:
cup of cottage cheese with hot sauce and flax oil
lunch:
quotidian salad (kale, napa, tomato, green pepper) cup of nonfat plain organic yogurt, almonds, salsa (which I forgot to enter)
snacks:
dried blueberries almonds
dinner:
brewers yeast soup with broccoli and cauliflower
another cup of cottage cheese
flax oil
red wine
wiggle room can include: another cup of yougurt, more nuts, some Quorn, something else.
No M&Ms.
Calories look low because I've allowed some wiggle room and I'm going back to 1200 since I've eaten out way too much lately and actually want to take off some weight. Having been weight stable for so long, it's weird to be up so much. Time to get back to serious CR.
Here's the crunch:
