If a donut joined the break I would have had a chance to catch them. Mmmmm donut.
Homemade stuffed squash at my cousin's house tonight.
Followed by some awesome homemade pecan pie.
There's a reason I refuse to learn to make dessert. It's all I'd ever eat...
I ate like 2 slices and then ate tons of ice cream. Delicious.
The only thing sub par about the dinner was the beer. The microbrew someone got kinda sucked. Too many ipas. I hate ipas...
Learning how to make Kheer from my mom tomorrow. I'm so excited...

The calorie counting starts today for me.
I'm purposely underestimating the calories burned (just using straight kJ, no factor), and overestimating the food calories of food I don't have data for.

or, you don't have to cook them.
1) pour milk,
2) eat
I started doing this when living out of the US, didn't believe it as possible at first... finally caved to conformity, started doing it, eat them that way at least 1/2 the time now.

Breakfast: Triple espresso, yogurt and "Nutty Nuggets" (generic Grape-Nuts)

I'm the world's forgotten boy. The one who's searchin', searchin' to destroy.
Completed: Glass of apple juice. On the to eat list: 3 packs of instant oatmeal (fruity and sugary). Scoop of protein powder in the oatmeal. And that half banana, half pear I ate yesterday? I'll be finishing the two remaining halves today. Maybe a PBJ before heading out for 47 flat miles. I'll probably have a piece of pizza plus a Sprite at the mid-way point.
This is BF. Nothing is ever that simple.
Bathroom scale after getting home from 102 miles, drinking about 1-L of various liquids (water, Vitamin Water, espresso), and eating lunch (half a gyro left over from last night and a banana) showed 190 lbs on my 6' 2" frame. I have been pretty consistently around 195 lbs, so I'm probably a couple of quarts low right now. We'll see what it says tomorrow morning.
This past Spring when I was in OK shape I was briefly down to 186 lbs at the end of "base" season. That time is always my low weight for the year. This year's goal is 180 lbs at that time.
