Monday breakdown

Breakie: Low-cal full-meal shake (chocolate). A bottle of water.

Loonch, the looniest of the meals: a leftover steak tip with Montreal seasoning. Zucchini slices cooked in butter. Some mashed potatoes (known locally as "mashies") made preternaturally smoove with the addition of what I think was ranch dressing. A Pillsbury crescent roll. A scooped of sauteed onions and green peppers. An iced coffee with sweet powder from a pink packet, and some soy milk.

A glass of water in the afternoon.

A snack!Some whole wheat Tostitos chips (maybe 6) and a dab of salsa. WHY OH WHY don't they give you a jar of salsa with enough salsa for the bag of chips? Make the bag smaller or the jar larger, guys. This isn't the Goldbach conjecture we're talking about.

Dinner: a "Caesarus" salad (small, not large) at Sunset after el workout at el gym, consisting of shaved cheese and shredded cheese (cheese is healthy right?), lettuce (as in, lettuce eat more cheese), roasted/marinated red pepper strips, and croutons (which could have been safely replaced by more cheese without any complaint from me). Several diet colas. Several.

At North Station: a small vanilla "ice cream" cone from McDonald's (note the dubitative quotation marks) and a medium diet.

At home: I was hankering. I found ham in the fridge, and had a piece as large as half a playing card in area (though a bit thicker depth-wise). I found a tiny container with shredded lettuce (as in, lettuce see if we can find more cheese), marinated in juices and spices, leftover from Thai-ish food night Saturday. I ate that too. Then up in the Room, Jenna saw what I had pilfered -- pig meat, wet lettuce -- and said, oh no no that doesn't look delicious enough. SHE pattered downstairs and came back before too long with a big boy slice of triple layer chocolate cake. Vanilla frosting.

Did I say triple? Well by the time it made it up the stairs, one of the layers had mysteriously vanished. We shared what remained, but I can't help but think she knows more than she is letting on about the case of the missing chocolate cake.
