Day 177

247.  Going backwards.  Not a happy thought but understanding how this works helps a bit.  As most everything in life it's cyclical so I just have to get back in the proper cycle.  In the next couple of weeks I'm going to experiment with eating and working out.  I'm committing to working out 6 days a week instead of 5 and I'm going to try to eat less at nite.  Lunch is going to be my biggest meal of the day and mostly protein.  I think I've been fooling myself when it comes to how much I'm really eating.  So there we go moving forward.  Here's how day 177 went:

Breakfast: Since I was meeting L at 7am I only had an Apple Pie Larabar and 20oz of cold water.

After the work out I went for an hour and a half bike ride and when I got home I had a two egg frattata made with a chicken thigh, broccoli, cottage cheese, and salsa.  I also had a Fiber One bar.  About an hour later I was still feeling hungry so had a turkey sandwich on whole wheat bread with almond butter, tomato, spinach and avocado.

Lunch: Later in the afternoon I had a small spinach salad.  It contained brussel sprouts, avocado, tomato, and cottage cheese.

Dinner was once again a mess.  Went to friends for the DnD game and as always it's tough to handle the food issue.  I was going to try something a bit different and took a Mahi Mahi fillet and a skinny bun to make a sandwich with.  As it turned out someone else brought Chili Mac.  Pretty much macaroni mixed with chili and cheese.  I had two bowls of that and of course then had chips, some weird cookies, kettle corn and carmel corn.  Also ate some peanuts but ended up only drinking water.  So very much junk food once again.  Gotta see about shaking that up.  Maybe I will try to bring an apple and maybe try again to bring some type of actual food that will make me feel satisfied and full, instead of chips and junk food.  We'll see.

So had another great workout with L and then went for the bike ride.  I wasn't planning on making it a long one since I just finished a workout at the gym.  It was great though as once I started riding I just went with it and I ended up doing the long ride.  Was glad I did as it was quite enjoyable.
