What I'm Reading This Week #14

Annnnd we're revving into Friday. source I must start with a teary goodbye to Val Kilmer.  No lie, three days before he passed I got the song " How Silly Can You Get " from the movie Top Secret in my head out of nowhere.  I hadn't seen a reference, heard anything about him and definitely hadn't heard that song in 20+ years.  I said to the Mr "I wonder how Val is doing?" then I soon got my answer.  I remember seeing Top Secret at the drive in with Mom when it came out.  When Real Genius came out on HBO, it was one of the few movies my Dad and I bonded over, is in my top five movies of all time and is the Mr and I's love language after I make him king of the winter carnival.   source Anyone who followed Val's career and personal life over the decades knows he got a little out of the box and didn't settle for norms which also included his approach to his throat cancer.  He lived authentically himself which is something we all hope to say when o...

2/24/12- Food Journal

Today was the first day it didn't feel like an anvil was firmly crushing my skull.  Progress.  Sadly, no sense of taste again so yeah, just have to assume my stuff was delish.  Though I did have little hints of flavors where I was like "if I were blindfolded, I would assume this is chili!"  Hoping for more tomorrow, fingers crossed!"

Let's eat...

I'm gonna be honest with you, I should just say "see 2/23's entry" because I ate the exact same thing as I did yesterday!

Breakfast was green tea and a bowl of oatmeal with 4 oz skim milk, 1 tsp chia seed, 1 banana, 1 tbsp almond butter and 1/2 tbsp of honey.




Lunch was brown basmati rice with chicken breast and veggies.  Fruit salad, raw veggie medley with 1/2 tbsp dip, pink lady apple with apple dip, TJ's oat brownie bar and a glass of light chocolate skim milk.


Dinner was a bowl of chili with a few shaves of Asiago cheese and a serving of reduced sodium oyster crackers and 1/2 slice of TJ's whole wheat fiber bread.


Night snack will be a skinny cow ice cream sandwich.


Calories for the day, 2091.  A little higher than I'm comfortable but I'm bumping the calories this week and with the lighter workouts and Aunt Flo joining the party, that should be interesting for tomorrow's weigh in.

You eat anything good today?

    Hooray for no anvils! You've reached the point where you know you're going to live, even if you're not yet sure you want to.

    Did I eat anything good? Well, we took my friend out for her birthday because her hubby's flight home got cancelled for a non-existent weather scare and he couldn't make it. She and I split a 'fisherman's catch'--fish 'n' chips with fried shrimp added, a caesar salad, and the three of us split artichoke dip with veggies. You'd think I would have enjoyed one of my old favorites, but all I could think was I was so glad I didn't eat the whole thing. When did I stop enjoying fried food?
