Happy Monday Menu Peeps! I played 4 games of baseball on Saturday! What a long day, but so much fun!
Yesterday went 4 wheelin' with friends, again so much fun! Back to the grind today. Gym this morning for some cardio.
Eats for today:

Total Cal 676, Carbs 60, Protein 73
May have to add a snack tonight, will be going to my Trucker's ball game so maybe after that. Or a protein shake throughout the day to get the numbers up.
Have a good day!
WARNING TO SELF AND TO ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN!!! AVOID 'BAD' CARBS AT ALL COSTS!!! THEY ARE ADDICTING!! THEY WILL SLOW DOWN YOUR WEIGHT LOSS DURING THE LOSING STAGE (and you won't even notice)!! THEY WILL MAKE THE SCALE GO UP AFTER THE HONEYMOON PERIOD IS OVER.

I feel I need to repeat this: I am a FIRM believer in Good Whey Protein Drinks!!!!! It is sooooo much harder to do Maintenance without them!
It's almost Eclipse time here in PA. Pappy and Grandkids are waiting anxiously. The 9 yr. old loves the stars and planets and he is so excited and I'm hoping it isn't disappointed.
Well eating salad has definitely not helped my scale. I was at 121 today which is out of my "perfect" range. As soon as I finish up the things I bought I'm going back to my regular scrambled egg lunch.

Good morning and TGIF! I've been rogue the last couple of days as I had a girlfriend come in Tuesday night and we spent Wednesday lounging by the pool! Which means I didn't really do any planning for yesterday! So I just threw the protein in my lunch bag and logged as I went. Didn't turn out too bad.
Back to diligence today. Took a break from the gym and man was it nice to get the extra 40 mins of sleep and shower and eat at home. Managed to do 5.5 kms at lunch at a good clip so I'm happy about that.
Today's plan
B - 1 egg, 1/4 cup egg white scrambled, slice of cheese and 2 strips of bacon
S - skyr vanilla with 2 oz raspberries (these berries are mutant size LOL)
L - 3 oz chicken, 109 gr cucumbers
S - deli kielbasa, slice of light marble cheese
D - taco salad
Total Cal 980, Carbs 38, protein 91
Have an awesome weekend! I'll be playing in my final ball tournament of the year! Hopefully we pull out some wins!
Cheers

Morning LW's!!! I decided to change it up a bit today. It is rare for me to eat salad but all of the girls at work eat them and they always look so good so I researched what the healthiest toppings were and placed a Walmart pick up order. It's not bad but I don't think I could eat it every day.

Best theory is over use. I was swimming last Wednesday and focusing on form with the swivel kicks, then I was running/walking in shoulder deep water. Thursday I rode my bike to the office and didn't feel sore but was kinda weak (no real power). Friday I rested then on Saturday I was trying to move a log out of a road bed at my parent's farm, lifting with my legs, and I felt something go in my butt. The working theory is it's my piriformus muscle on the left side, that was activated when swimming, after years of sloth...

I've been resting since the weekend when I injured my BUTT, yes my butt. Left side, can't walk up steps without serious pain... This afternoon I have a one hour orientation with a swimming based exercise physiologist and after that I'll walk and or run for a couple of miles if I'm feeling OK. I haven't biked to work while I try to recover from the ouchy. I'm hoping I'll be able to return to that by the end of this week!
Fun Fact - I'm in the 150s!!!!! 45 lbs to go until goal weight!!!
