Weigh-In Info: I am back to my pre-weekend binge weight, as expected. So now the February losing starts!
Actual Footage of Today in Norwood :-)
I have to say, I feel really good after not eating late last night. It was hard to do, just another habit to break, but totally makes a difference.
Breakfast - 2 cinnamon toast waffles with a little syrup. The picture shows ONE (it's actually one, cut in half.) I had to of what you see. These are delicious, quick, easy, cheap and much better in terms of portion control than my usual deli stop.
Lunch - For lunch, I had some leftover pulled buffalo chicken over basmati rice. This is a meal that can really never get old. I'd prefer to have them on Kings Hawaiian rolls, but the rice is really a better choice. THis particular type of rice is basically white rice but apparently has much better nutrition facts. Also, it comes in a bag that can just be microwaved for 90 seconds and it's ready, so it's pretty much AWESOME.
By the way - get an instant pot! The buffalo chicken recipe:
1) Dump frozen or thawed chicken in
2) dump in half a bottle of Frank's Red Hot
3) Turn on
4) take 2 forms and shred once cooked
5) Eat
Snack - I threw down the last 2 of the home made cookies from yesterday. I could not resist. This is why we can't have cookies in the house. :-)
Dinner - Kristyn was at it again! TOnight's new concoction was General Tso's cauliflower with baby corn and chicken. I threw a little more rice on top of it just to add a little gearth to it all. I actually thought this came out pretty nicely. Could have used a little more of the sauce. Basically, it was General Tso's cauliflower from Costco. She added the baby corn and seasoned chicken. I think if there was a little more sauce and it was on the chicken, it would have sealed the deal for me. THat being said, I have never enjoyed cauliflower as much as I did last night, and that's saying a lot, because really, cauliflower is a pretty neutral and tasteless situation with a yukko texture. So for it to be not only better than neutral in taste, but also softened up to perfection - what a victory!
Snack - For my birthday Zoom hang, Kristyn had gotten me a bag of Doritos, but I never actually ate them. The bag was opened though . . . . . so I hand picked some doritos from the bag. Not too many - I'd imagine about 3/4 of a regular "Serving size" but about 25% of my usual intake in a dorito binge.
I'm on the wrong computer right now, so I can't add the photos that are in my OneDrive, so sorry kiddies - no more photos today. I'll try to get this done at night in the future so I can include the photos.
Exercise - Did a bunch of more shoveling today, and also played in the snow with the kids for a little bit. I will say, I was soooo lucky that one of my neighbors did a surprise snowblowing of the back half of my driveway and the apron, which was freshly plowed into over night with the last bit of snowfall. Likely saved a good hour of work and a lot of pain. My goodness and I a lucky dude to have a great neighbor.
But even luckier, thanks to some amazing people in my life, I'll be getting a snowblower soon, so the days of back breaking shoveling will come to an end as soon as they come back in stock and I can find the one I want. WAHOO!!!
