Diet Log: Week 5, Day 4

So, after yesterdays partial fast, my wife accused me of being grouch because my bload sugar was probably low. I did not think I was grouchy. However, I have this one (and only one - in every other way I am perfect) personality quirk... I am usually one of the most cheerful people you will meet, but nothing makes me grouchy faster than being ACCUSED of being grouchy. It's weird - it's always like a self fulfilling prophesy (or at least a wife-fulfilling prophesy). So anyway, I WAS grouchy after she said that and decided not to repeat that today. Another downside was that I woke up ravenously hungry - it was actually painful. An upside though was that it helped me get back on track somewhat (of course, going into a weekend, who knows WHAT will happen)

Workout: 45 minutes on the treadmill. 30 situps and pushups - each without any rest in between.

Weigh-in: -14.5. woohoo!

Breakfast: I was all out of fruit salad, and I knew I had a lot of meetings at work again today, so in order to avoid the problems of yesterday I had a HAM SALAD sandwich from the local Gas Station. mmmm.. yummy. I was hoping for chicken salad (in my opinion, the king of all mayonaise-based salads). About 500 calories.

Lunch: nothing.

Dinner: Started out with a regular salad, followed by chicken salad sandwiches. I made my own chicken salad out of Light Miracle whip. It was ok. As far as Miracle whip goes, the light stuff isn't that bad, but Miracle whip is a little too sweet and doesn't quite give the same flavor as Mayonnaise. Calories: 700 (half of which was in the bread)



Total Calories for the day: 1200
