Thursday

Keeping the sugar low. Could have halved the late night snack (walnuts and almond butter)

Hump Day

Just was not that hungry. Had a small snack and then after long workout had dinner.

Interesting article. http://www.ultrarunning.com/features/health-and-nutrition/the-emerging-science-on-fat-adaptation/

Tuesday, closer to Friday

Weight down 1.5 lbs (282) So moving in the right direction. Less stiffness in the morning. Run went well last night.

pretty good day

Monday, Monday

Good low on sugar. Need more green veggies. Dinner was rushed. I substituted the flax bread for veggies. Low for calories for the day but I feel good.

Running went well. Did a better job today of doing the stretching.

Sunday

The breakfast was the mashed cauliflower So I am estimating the contents in my portion. (I had made it for Laurie's party but then could not make the party.)

Lunch was the flax seed bread. I eliminated the stevia and that helps the chemical taste. I lowered the flax seed from 2 cups to 1.5 cups and added .5 cup of almond meal and a little coconut flour.

Dinner was downtown on a gras fed burger (no bun) with tomato and a little onion and lettuce with cole slaw on the side. The slaw was not sweet, unlike a lot of deli slaws. So I think it was lower in sugar than indicated.

Good day

The lunch entry should be in the dinner entry;  Good day.

I can't believe I ate the whole thing.

Ran almost to the Jefferson Memorial in the morning. Cold but good. We were treated to Morton's steak house. So the dinner was a bit heavy. They did have mashed cauliflower , parmesan cheese, and truffle oil.  It was very good.  

Bussiness day 2

Did the work out. Will run tomorrow and it will be a little cold. Drank a lot of water.

business travel day 1

all in all not too bad. Dinner was terrible Chinese food with too much corn startch etc. Avoided the rice and no drinks.

Post Holiday Weekend

Started off Friday and Saturday well. (food wise) Friday was Ben's 21st and I went heavy on dessert. Saturday was good, but the Ugly Christmas Sweater Party I had a drink and some snacks.  Must avoid drinks, It hurts my metabolism (slows it down) and makes me feel tired for a couple of days.

Drank a lot of water and non-alcoholic drinks and tried to rehydrate.

Breakfast at the Hyatt was meeh. The veggie omelet was way to greasy and not enough veggies. Have to work on finding a better set of foods.

Day Two

While it says 66 grams for the day The onion and walnut and avocado are high in carbs. I think it is okay.

It is one thing

Okay it took me awhile to come down to 1 goal. I thought I could Do what Thornton Melon did in Back to School with Rodney Dangerfield (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIroRqO_BpM) Have 1 goal with 27 parts. ( Very funny movie) But that really isn't focusing in on a goal. It is A goal not a list of goals.   (drum roll) Health starts in the kitchen. I have to master that. I could train by running a marathon a day and eat terribly and it would not do me much good. (not suggesting running a marathon a day is a good general strategy)  So the 1 goal is to eat as few carbs as possible this month. To aim for less than 5 grams a day. Eat only what is on the Green List.

Looking at the above I find it hard to believe I had 75 grams of carbs and 44 grams of sugars.  Does plain roasted Cauliflower have that much sugar?
