My food is so erratic. So much stress. So much stuff to do. NONETHELESS, I am going to be here, even if dinner ends up being "bowl of fro yo because cooking sounded hard" (my grandpa and his long term girlfriend, who has dementia, just moved into an assisted living facility near us. My grandpa is having some adjustment issues, and have had to take on a LOT and go over twice a day for the past month). Scale is still OK, but there is some junk going on (I had fast food THREE TIMES in the past month. That never happens. Ever).
OK, with my whining done...
Today:
B - Sandwich thin with PB, jam
S - Pear
L - Leftovers - Pork tenderloin, broccoli, teriyaki sauce, soba noodles
S - Protein Shake
D - Roasted chicken on a bed of mixed veggies.
S - NSA Ice Cream
Actually made my calorie target yesterday. Well, within the estimates that are inherent in calculating recipe calories...
Thursday:
B - oatmeal, ls jam, skim milk
L - leftover mex beef & pasta + cheese
S - banana, minneola, flour tortilla, mini hersheys
D - leftover lasagna, salad w/lf dressing
E - none
This whole cooking separately from DH thing is weird. I keep cooking things that say they make 8 servings and then realizing I don't have to cook again for nearly a week. Typically one DH-sized serving is three me-sized servings.

Yesterday was all real food. I ended up switching dinner to a grilled chicken skewer, wild rice pilaf, and roasted asparagus. We'll have the salad tonight. Another complication - Sarah is working insane hours this week (Whoever scheduled Mother's Day and Prom on the same weekend must hate florists), so we're eating at 9:30 or 10. Just trucking through is the goal.
Today:
B - Go Lean, strawberries, almond milk
S - Greek yogurt w/ a sprinkle of go-lean
L - Leftovers: Grilled chicken, rice pilaf, roasted asparagus
S - Protein shake
D - Grilled chicken w/ lots of veggies over lettuce, a little honey mustard dressing, croutons.
S - NSA Ice Cream, strawberries
E - 80 min cardio (although my meeting schedule today is conspiring to not allow me to have it!)
Friday:
B - oatmeal, ls jam, skim milk
L - leftover fried rice
S - banana, nf greek yogurt w/honey
D - leftover mex beef & pasta w/cheese
S - frozen cooked winter squash
E - none
