and back to work - for now

No adverse effects from the antibiotics yet - cross fingers! Coffee and two scoops of Whey Gourmet milk chocolate flavour protein shake.40g salami, 50g cheese, jicama, radish and celery.
Coffee.
Afternoon snack (there being 6 hours today between lunch and quitting time) 1/2 cup yogourt and two bits of celery with smoked salmon flavoured cream cheese.


Doug made dinner tonight. Taco salad. Lettuce, tomato, 120g of lean ground beef, 40g of shredded cheese and a big blog of sour cream.
Later while watching one of our new favorite shows "Chuck" I split a small bag of Power Pop, popcorn with Doug. Only 25g and very moreish - Doug talked me out of any more though. Thanks!
Total calories 1,656 and only 35g of carbohydrates. Yay me!

Well, that wasn't so hard...

Here I was thinking that getting back on track after straying further and further and finally giving up entirely for more than a week would be a real struggle. I guess I've been weighing and recording my food for so long now that it's pretty easy to get right back to it. Surprise!
Coffee.Two eggs fried in a little butter.
Didn't really feel like going out but Rob came and picked me up and took me to scooter coffee and then to do some groceries. Thanks Rob - I do feel better for getting out! I had a Moka-sized Americano at the Moka House at Shoal Point.
Snack on some celery when I was organizing the groceries and preparing dinner.
Roast beef (122g) and broccoli (60g) and our usual side salad. I made a few tablespoons of gravy with the pan drippings.
Having skipped most of a meal today I was a bit hungry in the evening. I had 1/4 of a pear and 15g of monchego sheep cheese and 25g of Bresse bleu. Yum!
Grand totals for today only 1,140 calories and 27 grams of carbs. At this rate I should hit my low weight from last month in a day or two.

Saturday's eatings

Thank goodness for the daylight savings to standard time change. I had a rough night and really needed that extra hour. My persistent sinus infection that has left me open to cold after cold is still with me and after procrastinating 5 days and hoping that "it would clear up on it's own" I've given in and started taking the antibiotic my doctor prescribed last week.

Started the day with coffee.Bacon and eggs (2 each).
Having not done groceries in awhile we both had a Flat-Out brand high-fibre wrap with salami, cheese and a handful of greens. I also made sure to take my acidophilus supplement to counter-act the antibiotic.
Doug had a package of these maltitol sweetened peppermint patties. I had one.
While rooting around in the depths of the fridge for anything for dinner I found a pomegranate so had that for a snack. Ate about 2/3 of the thing since bits of it were starting to go off.
With no meal planning in place we ended up with a cheese and mushroom omelet for supper (with a tiny bit of chopped bacon). Made a big salad to try and compensate for lack of vegetables today.
