Today’s Totals - June 19th, 2009

Today was a rather boring day, but at least it was productive.  The rain held off so I did get to walk this morning.  Just a nice, reasonably paced walk.  Then I made 6lbs of apricots into jam, perhaps a touch thin, but I’ll know tomorrow morning better.  I got the turkey smoked as well, and divided up (seems easier when it’s warm).  Tomorrow I’ll slice it up and divide it to freeze.  I’ll also make stock with what’s left and reduce it (maybe have to finish that up on Sunday to get the fat off it).  The weather cleared up in the afternoon so it was nice to actually have a swim when it was warm and sunny out.  Tomorrow it is supposed to rain off and on all day and then supposedly we’re getting a week of hot (and sticky) weather.  We’ll see.  I’m not sure that I believe them.

Food for the day:

Total: 2015 calories (27% fat, 37% protein, 36% carbs)

Breakfast: breakfast bake, citrus bread, jam, orange (367)
AM Snack: beef jerky (108)
Lunch: multi-grain tortilla, roast eye of round, mustard, lettuce, apple (438)
PM Snack: hummus, flatbread (231)
Dinner: sirloin steak, corn, butter, salad w/dressing (595)
Evening Snack: fruit salad, protein shake (276)

Yeah, someone finally had sirloin steak on sale this week, so technically steak Sunday’s are back on.  Okay, I know today was Friday, but since it was fresh we changed it around.  There was a limit of 3 packages (x3 steaks) so we froze 8 of them.  The guy is going to cut another 3 packages for my mother on Monday morning (new delivery) and that should keep us going for the rest of the summer.
