Ugh...lessee, a "regular" cup of Chocolate fudge ice cream at 31 Flavors, 1 largish bag of Peanut M&M's I picked up on line at OSH and 2 Reeces crunch bar things. Compared to my normal capacity to power down huge amounts of junk food, this is relatively small, but still...
Oh well, today's another day

Ugh.... finishing the third is never a chore. I wish!
I've been on a pseudo business trip since Wednesday and besides not riding, my eating has been less than desirable Saturday lunch featured several slices of pizza, dinner was several hot dogs... blech.
I do love pizza though, holy cats do I love pizza.

Not safe for work
The ice cream I had last week because it was ridiculously delicious (peanut butter ice cream with ribbons of chocolate fudge and marshmallow). I'm blanking on the name because I must not go out and search for it because I will bring it home and I will eat all of it -- like I did last week.
Jeez, I even had a dream about it.

Sugar.
Creme.
Pie.
If you've not heard of it, I'm not surprised. It's apparently an Indiana thing. A coworker of mine bakes once a month in honor of that month's office birthdays. I'm an October birthday, and she knows Sugar Creme is my favorite. Normally I can avoid the (barely) brownies or zucchini bread that she brings in... but this hit me where I'm weak.

Is sugar cream pie anything like a Krispy Kreme vanilla cream donut?
So I ran a little tonight and either burned 378 cal (Runkeeper) or 486 cal (HRM). I also have a blackout cupcake that's 450 cal. So I'll either still be up 36 cal. or down 72 cal. Then again, I rode my bike too so that cupcake doesn't have a chance. Woohoo! Math is fun!

It's basically like a pumpkin pie, except it's white. And instead of tasting pumpkin/nutmeg, you get vanilla and cinnamon.

Old and in the way.
one way to crash at the one yard line
So today was my second consecutive 25 mile day (a first since getting back in the saddle. To put this in perspective my longest bike ride thus far was 32 miles) and by the end (despire eating before I left) I was famished- not bored, peckish, expectent but starving- when I rolled down the avenue of bad decisions (the fast food places by my hotel) the smell of grease and fried potatoes had me drooling.
So I get to my hotel and make a decent dinner. Then I add a sandwich to it making it a kinda big but still ok meal for after a long ride- lots of greens and protien over all. Feeling sated if still tired, I figured it was all good cause I was done eating for the night. So shower, then head back to work for my night shift where the foreman has bought pizza! Before I know it three pieces are down- and when I look online I realize I have just added 1000 calories to my day, and between the work and exhaustion there really is nothing I can do. I am done, beat, shot, bine-tired... I try and walk around a little but my legs are shaky tired.
This all highlights the struggle I feel all the time. I love everything that is bad for me- burgers, fries, ice cream, pizza, shakes. I really feel that I cannot eat these things in moderation, so I have (for the last month anyway) avoided them. but one tired moment and *bam* 3 pieces down the hatch. Sometimes I think the only way I could ever eat healthy would be to go live in a cave- every fast food, steakhouse or pizza add has me craving junk food.
Ok well the end of today sucked. Only thing to be done is get back up and start again tomorrow.

So I signed up for the cocktail party/wierd food thing. A friend of mine who works at the place says they plan to have kangaroo scrapple bevause muskrat is out of season. Don't know if she's joking, but there will defintiely be edible insects there:
Join us for Cuisine From the Collections, a new Academy cocktail party featuring food and drink inspired by the 18 million specimens in our scientific collections. Sample bugs, fungi, buffalo, and more at this exotic celebration of food.
Cuisine From the Collections is the Academy’s fun, new event for adults featuring edibles from the everyday to the exotic. The cocktail party features food and drink inspired by the 18 million specimens in the Academy’s scientific collections. A variety of food stations will include ingredients not usually found in most kitchens––everything from bugs and snakes to snails, sushi, and more!
While many of the collections are easily represented through food—think fish (ichthyology), fowl (ornithology), meat (mammalogy), and veggies (botany)—even ingredients not normally thought of as edible will be on the menu. A tasting bar will offer a surprising variety of salts representing the Mineral Collection, and adventurous guests interested in Entomology can taste insects that people eat regularly in many parts of the world. Buffalo, ugli fruit, fungi (mushrooms), and more unusual items are also on the menu. Academy scientists will be on hand with scientific specimens to answer questions guests may have about what exactly it is they are enjoying.

Bought 2 lbs of something labeled "Pork Fat". Sliced, salted and into a pot for 1+ hrs. and now I've got the greatest food ever.

Thursday evening after a particular long day at the office and after a moderate spin class we went over to a micro pub for beer and snacks to celebrate a birthday. Anyway two pints of beer and 3-4 small lemon bars, a couple chocolate covered graham bars, one other confection and I thought my blood sugar would be high. I was surprised to find it was only 98. My diet this past week has allowed me to lose weight in spite of the beer and sweets one night and less activity due to season and having to commute to the out of town office.

I was sick for a few days last week, and when I am sick I often crave sugar. Much of the Halloween candy now has to be replaced...

Rats,
Junior wanted to stop at Roy Rogers on the way home from Philly.
After 7 hours since breakfast and a nice walking campus tour, the double burger seemed like an OK idea.
I skipped on the fries, but the thing showed up on the scales this morning. So did Friday night's Cherry Garcia ice-cream. First ice-cream in months, but after driving the ticker down to a low of 202.4 we're headed in the wrong direction.
Lunch today ... salad, and a couple of brown rice cakes. Back on track. And gotta stay there. Hurricane nosh is not likely to be plentiful for a while anyway.

Not a good weekend for food intake. Handing out candy for a halloween event, bright eyes. it wasn't the size of the little candy bars, it was the number of them. Then it was a youth group event in the park where the hotdogs and chips and chocolate covered rice krispie bars and tonight, hosting the area college kids....pizza. Add to this, no rides this weekend. I am blimped. Tomorrow, back on it.

Hurricane shopping also yielded Little Debbie snack cakes and HD ice cream. Put the two together, and it's not a bad dessert.

Yesterday Mrs. Tractorlegs made cookies - Oatmeal Raisin and Snickerdoodles. I ate two, one of each type.
A year ago I would have eaten 8? 10? 12? and then it would have been difficult to stop.
The cookies were delivered to very grateful grandchildren

I've been hesitant about posting this. Tuesday, Aug 28, I rode 24 miles after work to catch a later train than usual. On the Amtrak I had a Jalipeno Cheese burger and a 20 oz Arrogant Bastard Ale. The chest pains hit just as I was riding the short distance through the station parking lot to where I had parked my car.
I did about thirty miles last Saturday, my longest ride since the "incident" Planning on the Bike The Coast 1/2 C next Saturday, and truly paranoid about eating crud.
