Crazy Monday
General August 18th, 2008Hey Kids,
I had a super fab weekend, though the food wasnt entirely on track..such is life. I tried. Well, today has been exactly on plan except i have been deceived at starbucks. i was deciding between an iced latte and an iced coffee and i thought that surely an iced coffee with just a tad of milk and coffee would be less than an iced latte! its like a 20-40 calorie difference, so nothing crazy but i just didnt think coffee had so many calories. im confused i must say. also today was kind of a wasted day because the power went out at work so i couldnt do anything, so i left to go do errands etc, and now it came back on, so I think I’ll go back and work for a few hours.
So, food so far today:
Breakfast: 1 tofu dog and ketchup (60), ½ bottle of kombucha (35), ½ blueberry muffin (100), ¼ cup of cottage cheese (45) with ¼ cup of berries (15), ½ banana (55)-310
Lunch: 2 turkey burgers (200) and ketchup (30), carrots (40), small plum (30)- 300
Snack: 12 almonds (103) and iced coffee with nf milk (140) [update, i think this was less than 140 because i had it unsweetened, so I’m gonna call it 140 to be safe, but im pretty sure its much less since i said unsweetened and then just put a little bit of nf milk in), and 1 green apple (70) - 313
Dinner: a bit more than 1/2 cup of pasta (150), 2.5 turkey meatballs (125), 1/4 cup of sauce (25), parmesean (45), Some veggies with balsamic but not full salad (50)-395
Total: 1318–> a bit over but i overestimated a few things on purpose, and still not a bad number
Workout: I went back to work this afternoon once the power came back on and I stayed late to the point that the gym was basically closed when I got out. I ended up going on a late night walk with a guy I know. It was about 1.5 hours, and somewhere between 4.5-5.5 miles, cuz I tried to map it, but I couldnt remember our whole route since we zigged and zagged around, but I’m definitely glad I walked and burnt off dinner. not sure what the situation is with the guy, and dont want to think about it too much. i guess we’ll just see..
night all.

a note about starbucks iced coffee: I am pretty positive that s’bucks automatically adds in a sugar-syrup, because regular granulated sugars don’t dissolve in cold liquid. I ask for mine unsweetend and I think/hope that cuts the cals. Also you reminded me of the kombucha kick I used to be on at college! I think I’ll get back to it, that stuff seems full of goodies for the bod.

great job with the foods….starbucks is deceiving, i’m always disappointed when i get home and check the calories…so i try to stay away from them period. i make my coffee at home and then ice it over.
a lil work, but at least i’m positive of the calorie intake.

Try making it at home & take some of your leftover coffee from the morning & pour it into ice cube trays…better than water cause they don’t water down the flavor as they melt…& if you like the flavors, check out the coffee aisle at the supermarket. I used to buy a sugar free vanilla syrup that made coffee a tasty adventure without all those crazy calories.
Okay, that’s my coffee advice…now, what the heck is kombucha?

Where the heck are you? It’s been a week and no posts! Did you run off to Vegas with a stranger for a quickie wedding? Have aliens abducted you? Did you smill a magnum of champagne on your keyboard and fry your computer? Joined the circus? Fled the country with a fake passport?
Sadly, I could go on with these all night because I have no LIFE other than cruising blogs and letting my over-active imagination run away with me.

You need to post. You DO NOT want a bunch of Fat Chicks coming to your campus/apartment/town and searching you out. Believe me. You Do Not want that.
