Second breakfast

More coffee with half and half, plus a packet of Irish cream flavored creamer in honor of St. Paddy's Day. A Jack Link's Original Beef Stick. Two hard boiled eggs. And a 1.25 oz packet of salt and pepper cashews.

Just the facts

McDonald's for supper. Ten piece McNuggets with sweet and sour sauce, medium fries, a McDouble cheeseburger, and a medium Dr. Pepper. So much for eating healthy Sunday.

Woke up hungry, had a 7 ounce can of tune, a big swig of EVOO, and a dark roast coffee with half and half. Still kinda hungry, may have another swig of EVOO later.

Starting fresh

Because I was still in the Pacific time zone, the XXL nachos, bean burrito, and brownie I ate at 2 am in Tucson don't count, so I'll be able to say I ate healthy all day today. Breakfast is two hard boiled eggs and hazelnut coffee with a couple tablespoons of half and half. The plan is to have canned greens, veggies, and fish for the rest of the day.

Bad breakfast

Two pints of fruit punch Kickstart and two Tornados gas station grill things. Only good part was that I was hungry, which made the Tornados seem extra crispy and tasty.

Dinner from cans

Determined to eat more offal , I had a can of sardines, a can of beets, and a can of olives for dinner.

And a pint can of Dr. Pepper. I suck.

Ugh. Payday.

I shouldn't have, but I got a chicken tender meal from Chester's Chicken in Buckets, AZ. Three deep fried chicken tenders, three potato wedges, and some deep fried okra, washed down with a Kickstart.

All together now: fuck you, pancreas!

Gorged on healthy food

After getting rid of some frighteningly yellow urine, had a can of mixed turnip and collard greens with EVOO and vinegar, ten ounces of canned salmon, and a quarter cup or so of mixed nuts. Time to get back on the wagon.

Weigh in

280.5, according to the scale at the Pilot in Jamestown, NM. Up from 278.4 a few days ago. This Is Not A Good Thing. Time to start eating the healthy food I've packed and stop eating Subway. Which is what I had for breakfast again today. Basically a repeat of yesterday, but with Cherry Coke.

Fuck you, pancreas!

Why I shouldn't be allowed to have money

Breakfast was a footlong flatbread sandwich from Subway-egg patties, steak food product, and bacon, topped with tomatoes, onion, olives, and the trinity of peppers-green, banana, and jalapeno. Shredded cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, and sriracha for garnish. That wouldn't have been terrible, but then I had to drink a 32 ounce cup of Hawaiian Punch and a couple of big soft Subway cookies as well.

I'm planning a trip to Australia and New Zealand next year and it would be really nice to only have to buy one plane ticket for myself.

Lunch meat

Supper was a pack of salami and a pack of pepperoni from the dollar store. No carbs to speak of, enough sodium to get two people through a day, a decent amount of protein, and a ton of fat.

Hot dogs for breakfast

Pretty much the least healthy breakfast ever. Spent the night parked at a Sheetz and felt guilty about using their restroom without buying anything,  so breakfast was two hot dogs with mustard, onions, Boom Boom sauuce (whatever it is, I'm sure it's chock full of HFCS) and chili, 1.875 ounces of kettle cooked salt and vinegar chips, and a 16 ounce Mountain Dew Kickstart. Fruit punch flavor, of course. A 20 oz coffee with a tablespoon or so of half and hallf will have to get me to lunch.

End of day wrapup

Lunch wound up being a big ol' feast. I had a jar of olives then a jar of mixed veggies (cauliflower, carrots, onions, peppers) from the dollar store, then a couple hot dogs with chili, onions, mustard, and slaw, then some corn chips and pretzels with hot dog chili on them, then a couple of pecan spinwheels. After napping a few hours to digest all that, I had a can of beefaroni with some more chips to soak up the leftover sauce, and a can of Dr. Pepper.

After that, I watched some TLC with my mom. My 600-lb Life was the show. Talk about thinspiration. I made sure to drink a glass of ice water after that.

Rough week

Wound up being too tired with too much going on to be able to keep up with the blog for a few days. Arby's played a part in what I ate though, along with rice and beans and a big can of baked beans on top of potato chips.

Today, though, I'm back on the wagon. Breakfast was a cup of coffee with half and half, a double fistful of pills (forgot to take last night's wistful), and a double dose of fish oil since I neglected that too. Lunch is going to be canned salmon and a bag of nuts. Some gum might get chewed as well.

Big breakfast

Eggs, potatoes, Canadian bacon, sliced melons and fruit, a bagel with cream cheese and strawberry jam, a small Danish, a cup of tea and a cup of coffee.

More than enough calories to keep my sedentary ass going.

Catching up

Didn't get around to posting yesterday. A chicken strip meal from Zaxby's with French fries, a trip to McDonald's, and a Chinese buffet were involved. "Fuck you, pancreas!" should probably be a label.

And now it is.

And a healthy dinner

Was feeling pretty hungry around 5, which I choose to interpret as a sign that I'm eating when I'm hungry and not just to avoid getting hungry. I devoured:

Two tomatoes
A six ounce can of tuna
Half a can of mixed greens in apple cider vinegar
About three ounces of kimchi
Ten bleu cheese stuffed olives
Two tablespoons of coconut oil

And now I am pleasantly full.

Addendum

Make that three pieces of pizza for lunch.

Why truck drivers are fat

Domino's for lunch. I managed to hold myself down to two pieces.

Double deuces

Had a big green BM around 0630, and another one around 1050. Good greens.

Catching up

Dinner last night was all kinds of healthy. A four ounce can of tuna, a small jar of red pepper stuffed olives (6 ounces or so), half a can of mixed turnip and mustard greens with apple cider vinegar, about ten olives stuffed with bleu cheese, and a couple ounces of kimchi. Fell asleep about 2130, woke up around 0400.

Breakfast was at the hotel breakfast bar and I kinda went overboard. Two large helpings of scrambled eggs, five pieces of Canadian bacon, a bagel with cream cheese and strawberry jam. a piece of raisin toast with butter  and apple jelly, a small glass of OJ, and a large helping of potatoes, covered in Tapatio. Oh, and two packets of honey with two cups of tea.

Needed a caffeine boost around 1000, so I bought a Pepsi from a vending machine, then a 20 ounce Gatorade. 380 calories of pure sugar. Fuck you, pancreas!

Lunch munch

Lunch today was about three ounces of the best kimchi in the world. Sanja's mild, available at Whole Paycheck, but oh so good. The garlic and ginger are an amazing combination. Since I was getting pretty hungry from skipping breakfast for the physical, I also had a can of pink salmon (5oz), about four ounces of sweet yellow cherry tomatoes, and one of my self mixed bags of nuts.

Now that the physical is over, I'm definitely feeling relieved.  Georgia's DOT physical is a little more intensive than North Carolina's. Not that I had any doubts about my ability to climb a ladder or lift 25 pounds, but I was sure that with a witness involved I would screw it up somehow.

Studying for a whiz quiz

Trying to get my blood sugar down for my physical today, so no food till after lunch other than about three tablespoons of coconut oil. Also took a couple ounces of apple cider vinegar and a couple cups of bilberry tea.

The hotel has a fitness room, so a little elliptical and Bowflex is in order before heading over to the occupational health center.

Hot tub=awesome

Staying at a pretty nice hotel tonight. It has an indoor pool and a whirlpool hot tub. I splashed around for about twenty minutes and it seemed to help some soreness in my shoulders from karate.

Catching up

Was otherwise preoccupied and didn't get to write up what I ate. Shame may also have played a factor. Friday night after karate, supper was four beers. Breakfast Saturday was three eggs hard cooked in butter and doused in Texas Pete with a splash of milk in coffee. Then lunch was the buffet at Pizza Inn with a couple glasses of Coke. Let's say, about 8,000 calories in carbs. This is how I got to my current size and blood sugar levels. Then supper was a big bowl of vegetarian chili with cheese and sour cream, a meatball stuffed with rice, and a big hunk of sugary Krusteaz corn bread. Around midnight Sunday morning I had a pint of Greek yogurt with three ounces of blueberries and two hard boiled eggs. Lunch Sunday was five more hard-boiled eggs and a couple pints of coffee with half and half. Finally, supper Sunday was about three tablespoons of coconut oil with a cup of bilberry tea. Have to try and get my blood sugar down to a normal-ish range for my DOT physical tomorrow.
