yesterday, i had a slice of peanut butter bread in the morning, before i met Marc for brunch. 

i had country fried steak, scrambled eggs and rye toast.  gravy on steak, strawberry jelly on toast.

dinner was meatballs, broccoli and salad. 

no night snack needed. 

October 25th, 2018

that would be yesterday, I believe.  for breakfast, i had a two-egg omelet, with spinach, kielbasa slices, tomato, red onion and aged white cheddar.  for lunch, i had a buffalo chicken salad, which i regret as it had fries on it.  for dinner, i had the other half of the salad with soup.  better than a month ago.  the weight is coming down, according to my shirts that will button around my belly again. 😎

sorry about the delay...

quite a bit going on, as you know if you are following The Journey but i'll try to do better.

today i had no breakfast, a pack of crackers at some point on the ride back from 1st runs.  for lunch i had a gyro salad and a pita.  for dinner i had two chicken legs and soup.  no evening snack, at least so far, HA!  haven't gone off the food rails, just need to get back to exercising.  that's about it.  now on to sleep, perchance to dream about something nice...

October 20th, 2018

gotta do this one, will probably have to do another one later to log my lunch and dinner, should they occur.  but i have to get yesterday down. 

on 10/20, i had a cup of chili for breakfast.  i had two cheeseburger patties with tomato and spinach salad for lunch.  i had one hamburger patty for dinner, and a bowl of honey-nut Cheerios for a snack last night. 

on Friday, the 19th, i had kielbasa and eggs for breakfast, a gyro salad for lunch and black beans and rice and some kind of meat for dinner.  i am amazed that i can't remember what kind of meat i had on friday.  anyway, that's the update.  i'll try to log meals for today from today.  good bye for now. 

October 17th, 18th, 2018

okay, yesterday i didn't have breakfast, i had wings for lunch, and i had chicken, soup and scalloped potatoes for dinner.  no breakfast today, lunch was chili, dinner was pork chops, cali blend veggies and again scalloped potatoes.  the potatoes aren't the worst, as i'm not doing carbs through the day, but they're far from the best option and i threw the rest out, because i'm not going to keep rationalizing my meals.  had half a peanut butter sandwich as my snack tonight.  i'm out. 

October 15, 16, 2018

tired, but i got to get this stuff down. 
yesterday i danced and i went for a walk. today i didn't do anything physical. 

no breakfast either day, but yesterday had a pack of breakfast cookie thingies from Da Boss.

lunch was salad and sausage, onions and peppers.

dinner was a chicken quesadilla from down the street with a small salad on the side.

no breakfast today. 

lunch was 2 egg rolls, hot and sour soup and chicken and garlic sans rice.

dinner was two hamburger patties, topped with sauteed spinach and tomatoes, and some of my purgatory soup. an orange for dessert. 

move your ass tomorrow. 

October 14th, 2018

breakfast: two eggs, kielbassa
lunch: chili, chicken & ribs (lawd...)
dinner: chicken, rib and scalloped potatoes (again...lawd.)
snack: sugar free pudding

october 12 & 13, 2018

honestly, what is my problem?  i don't know why i didn't publish the last update here, left it in as a draft for 2 days.  sorry about that.  anyway, here's another 2 days, but i will publish this when i'm done. 

so, friday.  did a bit too much, admittedly.  not breakfast.  breakfast was bacon and eggs.  lunch was chicken parm, fried zucchini and eggplant with sauce and cheese.  dinner was cod, wings and a salad, and soup, half a slice of bread.  cereal at night for a snack.  got to stop that, as it raises my sugar too much.

saturday.  breakfast was meat loaf and eggs.  lunch didn't happen.  dinner was soup and meat loaf, slice of bread.  dessert was an apple and cheddar cheese. 

this eating thing is getting kind of weird.  need some variety. 

October 9th and 10th, 2018

i missed yesterday.  i was weary, just mentally i think, and i ate and put it down.  but still, no excuse.  so i'll try to recap.

on Tuesday, i had no breakfast.  still skipping sometimes, and i'm still okay with that.  lunch was a thin breast of grilled chicken on grilled italian bread (open face, one slice) with provolone, greens, peppers and some other crap on it, with some grilled asparagus on the side.  dinner was wings and applesauce.  see? not hard.  ate some cheese crackers on the bus.

Today.  breakfast was a steak omelet and applesauce.  lunch was a chicken breast and a cabbage roll.  dinner was meat loaf, a small baked sweet potato and steamed chopped spinach.  good stuff.  eating is going well, exercise is spotty, and that has to change.

more stuff at the Journey.

October 8th, 2018

i am not always inclined toward breakfast these days, a sure change from the old days.  nor do i feel i am missing it, when all i do in the morning is sit on my ass and drive, getting up twice to put a client on the bus and strap their wheelchair down and to unstrap them and take them off at their workshop. 

that said, yesterday, the 8th of October, no breakfast.  lunch was six garlic parm wings and a salad.  dinner was a steak fajita, made at home, steak and peppers and onion and red beans in a tortilla shell with cheese, and applesauce.  i had peanut butter on the spoon after that, and before bed, applesauce and cottage cheese. 

October 7, 2018

breakfast:  eggs scrambled with green peppers and american cheese, sausage links and one piece of rye toast

lunch (more or less): 10 chicken nuggets, one chicken thigh, one biscuit

dinner: 3 alfredo wings, eggplant spaghetti made with spaghetti squash

had a bowl of honey-nut cheerios before sleep.

October 5th, 2018

so, five days in, five pounds down about.  I guess.  it's a start, but I need to get more active.  regardless, this is the Dining Room, not the Gym.

Friday, 10/5
breakfast: kielbasa and a boiled egg
lunch: 4 wings, 2 jojo fries
dinner: fish (perch, walleye & cod), sautéed spinach with onion, tomato, garlic and mushrooms, touch of cheddar, and homemade applesauce
had a 4 pack of peanut butter crackers on my afternoon runs, cup of sugar-free pudding after dinner and three teaspoons of peanut butter before bed.\

October 3rd & 4th, 2018

had a rough day yesterday, going to have to play catch up again in the Journey as well, but at least it's 24 hours worth, not days and days.  but i can recall the meals, pretty well.

on Wednesday, October 3rd, i started the day with a sausage patty and two eggs, scrambled.  for lunch i had a gyro salad from Ghossain's, and for dinner i had a wonderful roasted lamb with peppers and onions and a salad.  my in-between, when i can't seem to help it, is pork rinds, zero carbs.

today, i had a half a cup of oatmeal, leftover and heated from the fridge.  for lunch, i had chicken fries and chicken nuggets from BK (still trying to keep the fast food out, but i had to put something in me, and that was the most loyal to the plan i could remain), and for dinner i just had two parmesan chicken tenders made as a chicken marinara, broccoli and cheddar and a garden salad, very tasty all.  i've got sugar free pudding for dessert, but i'm not sure how i'm going to get down on that.  but that's the current status, and i thank my Heavenly Father for keeping me moving.
