This boring game again? Sure. It serves as a kind of mindfulness; as long as it does not devolve into an act of self-supervision and reproach...
The day began non-ominously but nom-nom-inously with a glazed stick donut (440 cals) and an iced hazelnut coffee with skim milk and two Splenda (30 cals). Then a lunch at Starbucks. One string cheese (80 cals) and a tall (small) S’mores Frappuccino (320 cals). In the afternoon, I had five peanut butter pretzels from the massive barrel we keep in the reception area of our department (80 cals). On the train ride home, I had a Diet Mountain Dew (10 cals) and an almond Nature Valley Sweet & Salty Granola Bar (160 cals).
For dinner, I sautéed kale with onion in olive oil, and added chicken and some leftover garbanzo bean salad, to make a warm dinner salad. For one serving, say: 600 cals? On the side, half a round of grilled pita with homemade zaatar: 130 cals. Drank water. (On reflection, I did not drink enough water this day.) Dessert was a Hannaford’s ice cream sandwich: 160 cals. Had a glass of water at bedtime.
For the day, a calorie total of 2010. For a person of my size, and for someone who has been overeating the past few weeks, that’s good! But still, that’s not a loss figure, especially considering how sedentary I am during the work week...
