Er…I guess that’s it. I really need to get moving and do…something. With my life. I guess.

Or at least walk downtown and get something solid to eat.

1 16oz bottle of orange juice

2 biscuits (from scratch. I was feeling fancy this morning)  
2 eggs

handful of walnuts  
for dinner, it’s either going to be:  
salad (spring mix with grilled chicken, feta, dried cranberries and walnuts)  
a piece of warmed Italian bread

or

vanilla yogurt with granola mixed in

And either some grapes or watermelon for dessert, if I go with the salad

This morning, I woke up at 10. I had a cup of milk and a slice of pizza.

Then, at noon, I had some beef, rice and some sort of Korean soup made from beans.

During the afternoon, I had a cupcake and a cookie. I’m about to have dinner, which is rice, Korean BBQ-ed beef, tofu, kimchi and some Korean soup made from fish.

Breakfast: most of a chicken, a potato, and a diet coke.  
Brunch: two cans of tuna and a diet coke.

You get the idea. No time or energy for anything that requires cooking.

1 protein shake [atkins stirrable, vanilla made with water, dash cinnamon]

salad - 1 cup spinach leaves, 1 tbsp toasted macadamia nut bits, 1 tbsp dried nonsugared cranberries, 1 piece bacon in crumbles, 1 tbsp crumbled blue cheese, balsamic vinegar

hm, 2 of 3 liters of lime water [3 liter ex soda bottle, chopped 2 limes, water and ice. shake the bejebus out of it and put in freezer until really cold and ice is starting to form.]

no clue what next snack will be, probably another cup of protein shake

dinner will be something involving a nice bit of ham we have in the fridge. it will include fauxtatos [cauliflower treated like mashed potatoes] and asparagus

I snacked on a few edamame this evening and then for dinner I really messed up and had about a dozen huge steak fries that I dipped in chipotle mayonnaise.  
I was going to have a salad. :smack: I have no self-control.
