Back under control.

My Brazil Bodum coffee maker ready to pour. I'm still drinking the Caddysaurus blend from Pepper's market almost every day.Boring old bacon and eggs. Tasty though.
Went to physio/exercise and felt much better today. Home just in time to freshen up and eat a big bowl of my homemade chicken soup and a little bowl (120g) of cottage cheese before heading out to work
Note to self - don't take pictures of cottage cheese (or yogourt) in a white bowl with a flash.For my coffee break (singular - only working four hours today) I have 60g of soft cheeses and 60g of cantaloupe melon.
Dinner is a great big bowl of romaine lettuce (137g) with a small grilled chicken breast (87g) some caesar dressing and a light shredding of stinky hard cheese.
With only 300 calories for dinner I knew I would have to have something more before bed. Sugar-free ginger-ale and a 40g of pork rinds. They always really fill me up but have to be eaten with pop - they're quite awful with water.
Today's total: 1,452 calories. Yay me!

still not great


Still feeling sickly but not nearly as bad as yesterday. Slept in, had coffee.
Thought about making scrambled eggs but just grabbed a heel of salami and some left-over jicama sticks for breakfast.

Decided more was necessary, bowl of yogourt. Continued the Ginger-ale therapy from yesterday. It's just what I want when I feel under the weather. Or when faced with neat rye whiskey.


Late afternoon, I grilled the other chicken breast that I took out of the freezer yesterday and put it on top of the rest of our lettuce with a generous helping of bottled Caesar dressing and some grated parm. Was actually really good. Felt good enough to go to the store and pick up some lozenges and among other things diet butterscotch pudding. Not my favorite flavour but it has fewer carbs than chocolate or vanilla. Made it up with 1 part coffee cream to 1 part water to keep the carbs down. It was really nice and I had to resist eating the entire thing all at once.


Shopper's didn't have my favorite throat drops so I got these ones as they were the only sugar-free variety I could find.



Around dinner time I was thinking more soup - used up a few dried shitaki mushrooms I found in the back of the pantry and a package of shiritaki noodles (konnayku only as noodles) they have practically no nutrient value at all, virtually all fibre.


More pudding. Don't worry I gave the rest to Doug so I wouldn't have any more.


Another lozenge, and around 9pm upon finding my fitday calculation at less than 1,100 calories had a tin of sardines just because I could. And more gingerale.
