April 28th - Day 5
Weight 160
Hey, honesty is the best policy right? Well, I'm certain that this weight gain is water. Probably a function of eating out/more salt last night. No sweat. ;) I bet this bounces back down quickly...let's see.
Sorry people out there, but I got a little behind on blogging over the weekend. I'm gonna hit fast forward a little to get us up to speed giving you the high (and low if needed) lights...
It's Saturday and the weekend is usually a little harder to stay on any "diet" whatever that word means. This is when we all usually have more time to eat whether it's for better or for worse and I am certainly no exception. These are good things to keep in mind. My plan is to stay the course overall giving myself a little breathing room here and there while I enjoy myself...always a top goal in my life!
Meals today:
I spent the day at a training seminar in orange county so, I got up bright and early (not so bright really right now in San Diego with this April gloom?) and made a bag lunch for later in the day. Just like mom used to send me off to Longfellow grade school with! Breakfast is always easy to get on target with. Easy and quick to get done too. Yes, PB and J on toast with some cottage cheese and a banana. Simple and pretty wholesome if you use whole grain bread and organic products. Lunch was a toasted bagel with PB and J with another banana. Hey, I said quick right? I had a granola bar and a V8 to finish out lunch. I'm shocked too that V8 actually tastes good to me now as an adult. Virgin bloody mary mix on the airplane ain't so bad either.
We had dinner with some friends tonight so, I got creative. They were grilling some chicken and having a nice little dinner...I opted to create grilled PB and J. A new idea for me personally. I toasted some bread, added the pb and j, wrapped them in foil, and then put them on the grill to melt gloriously into harmony...they turned out really good! Completely warm uniformly throughout. A very nice feeling going down. We snapped a few candid photos of my creation and had a nice time joking around as always. I had a dinner salad and some of that tasty bbq chicken to make sure I'm eating "right" along the way to wherever it is that I'm going with this "diet."
An average, but very good day I'd say. Turn the page.

Myles.... speaking of salt.... ckeck out the amount of sodium in a can of V-8. It's unbelievably high.
Don
V8 sure does pack a punch. I like the taste and have probably had 3 of them in my lifetime. No plans to make those a daily habit. My salt needs are sure to be greater than most from the amount of cardio training i do each week, but being mindful of sodium content is smart. THANKS!
