This week was no fun. I ended up getting sick and then not working out at all until Sat. It was a case of ear infection and cold causing my voice to go away. I was happy though to find I'd lost 8 of the 10 pounds I'd gained the week before.
Breakfast was my usual bran cereal and banana and the famous frittata and 20oz of cold water. Lunch was weird as I only ate lunch twice at work due to going home sick in the latter part of the week. There was a steak sandwich, a spinach salad with steak, an egg scramble with chicken, and one of my fave's, fish tacos with beans and rice.
Dinner also was all over the place with pot sticker soup and chicken strips with onion rings, and stir fry broccoli with Chinese finger foods. I also had some Greek yogurt and bran cereal and a banana with some peanut butter.
Lite food day was the usual frittata for breakfast, Greek yogurt for lunch and a protein smoothie for dinner.
On the weekend I was finally able to get back to working out and went to the gym. I combined two of Lorinda's previous workouts into one giant workout. After that I had a turkey, bacon, and avocado sub sandwich with potato salad and the last of my beans and rice from the day before. Dinner was a spinach salad with a spinach stir fry in egg with pot stickers. Sunday I went for an hour walk and came home to a club sandwich to which I added an egg and guacamole plus chips (single serving size bag). I was craving a Blizzard so for dinner I had one along with a bacon cheeseburger and fries with a soda (my first in a couple of months).
So besides being sick it was a good week. I lost eight pounds of weight I shouldn't have gained and I'm okay with that. I wasn't feeling the workouts but when I got back in the gym it felt good and right. Now I just need to get over the ear infection and life will be back to normal. And normal is good.
