breaky was a muffin(180) with an 2 eggs (170), lunch was mashed pumpkin(150) and Brussels sprouts(50). Arvo tea was a banana(100) and soda water with a twist of lime(70)
So far that's about 800 cals approximately, i tend to be a night time eater so pizza for dinner, and then ill eat before i sleep (cant sleep on an empty stomach!)

Just ate home made pizza (gluten free), toppings were cream cheese, chicken, bacon, hickory BBQ sauce and of course cheese. A cup of tea makes me feel full since i only had the one slice (it was a big calorie laden slice) plus nibbles whilst making it. Guestimating it at 500 calories, though its possibly less. This leaves me with room for night snack.

Had a muffin before bed last night, also did a good 30 mins on the spin bike.
Breaky
1 Muffin, 2 eggs, trim moccha (made at home!) 500cals (approx)
Lunch
Leftover Pizza from last night 500 cals
Dinner
Stir fry rice with beef and veg. 400cals
Kitten kept us up again last night coughing and hacking because hes got a loose tooth. Unlike humans they cant pull em out, they just do funny things till it comes out and they either swallow it or spit it. Either way no spin bike this morning, and i was playing with my heena tonight. I think an early night tonight happens, and spin tomorrow morning.

I forgot to do the spin in the morning lol, forgot to set my alarm :O
To top it off i didnt bike to work either because it was wet and the kids did not want to, and then we were late :/
On a plus side, the muffins ive been having i thought had 180-200 cals each were only about 100 each so i can probably deduct some calories off what ive been eating.
Breakfast today was muffins without eggs (forgot to bring em in the rush) and of course the trim moccha.
Today is going out to lunch day with work, *everyone* at work goes to lunch at a local eatery, and i suspect today is going to be indian so really fatty. I did bring my own lunch, so im going to stay in the office and eat that instead, then go to warehouse and find another pair of pants that fit me until i loose the extra again.

Yesterday Lunch i did end up going out, i had french toast because the breakfast was the best option on both taste and fat content (I really wanted the fries and BLT or at least eggs benni!). so 1.5 slices of bread, an egg, a tiny bit of bacon, and fruit. The only bad thing was maple and that wasn't to bad. ( 400 cals?)
Dinner was corned silverside with home made white sauce base with parsley and a bit of mustard, potatoes, & pumpkin. ( 600 cals).
Supper was a muffin (100 ) and then yogurt (50) because i couldnt sleep and it was 1am.
No exercise, still having sleeping problems. I'm up again early delivering papers with my daughter today, supposed to be cycling today but im just so tired i want to go back to bed :/
I think ill go back to bed, see if i can sleep again.

Not so great a day yesterday. Eggs benni for breakfast/lunch. Dinner was steak, veg soup, and a couple sausages plus a glass of wine. We ended up having a LOT of guests over and it was hard to not drink tons or eat tons. I think i did ok considering. I never did go for the bike ride yesterday with daughter because i was so tired from lack of sleep.
I slept well last night but daughter has a friend over so unable to go cycling today. Time to go move the the stereo and a TV screen into the garage i think and get on the spin bike

Ack i thought yesterday wasnt good. Today we had muffin with 2 eggs & hollendaise again, then another spicey fruit muffin + coffee (450-500cals)
Lunch was skipped, usual weekend thing. I get up late to breakfast becomes lunch and its usually larger,slower,etc
Friend came around with a box of 'Favourites' chocolates as a thanks, i ate about 3 or 4, plus some lollies (250cals) throughout the day.
Dinner i had 2 lamb chops, 2 small bacon sausage things, couscous (i skipped the deep fried chips the others had) (900 cal?)
I did the cross trainer for half an hour burning off 250 cals. Im heading out to do some cycling on the spin bike for a bit now also, then eating again before going to bed (as usual)

Okay, spin bike never happened, ate more chocolates. Not such a great outcome :/
Today i had 1.5 muffins for breaky plus coffee(300cals). Lite yoghurt for lunch(100cals), and an anzac cookie for afternoon tea (made by my son)(50cals)
I finished off the last 5 Favourite chocolates (250 cals)
Dinner should be shepards pie, or i may skip that and have a protein bar since im heading out for several hours.
Hopefully I'll get time to do a spin session on the bike.

Got home last last night after my younger daughters cheerleading. Older daughter had done 1.5 hours of cycling whilst i was out, but i only managed to do 30 mins. Our 'Gym' is in the garage and we have a boarder in the room that backs onto the garage. I was very aware that he wanted to go to bed so I didn't want to make any noise, hence why i stuck with a very hard out 30 min workout.
Tonight I'll do more exercise which i *need* to do .
As for food, last night i managed to eat a few spoonfuls of the cottage pie before dashing out(200cals?), then had a BK ice cream (100cal) whilst out. I got home, did my 30 mins spin, then had my usual muffin(100) & tea before bed.

Todays meals
Breakfast was muffin + coffee (as usual, they were on special last week lol) 300
Lunch was light yoghurt and a carrot (nicked off co-worker) 150
Dinner was not to great. I ran outta veg, couldn't be buggered shopping since its raining etc. Ended up making beer batter (with beer!) and doing potato and kumera/sweet potato cubes, then crumbed schnitzel. Fat content was rather ... high? for dinner. 800cals (guessing here, i didn't eat a big portion, but it was high fat)
On the plus side i did just shy of an hour on the spin bike.
Just about to have my night time muffin and tea and head to bed.

Ive been a touch broke, and muffins were on sale, hence why im living on that for breaky
yesterday breakfast and lunch was 2 eggs on a muffin (its also yummy!)
Dinner was a protein bar since i was a hurry to go out. Second dinner was some meat, tomato,potato thing
Then i had another muffin before bed.
I did 30 mins on the spin bike which revved up my system so bad, i was starving whilst waiting for my daughter to do her cheerleading.

Ack got sidetracked and busy and never updated. Diet was going fine until last night. Yesterday me and the daughter cycled to Rotorua from Cambridge on the tandem, its a round trip entirely uphill of 85km. A hard task i tell you, especially considering it was raining off and on the entire time!
We were 50-60km in when i heard an odd noise like a leaf in the brakes so i stopped. I noticed the noise was still there after stopping at which point i saw something green on the tyre. I flicked it off at which point the rest of the air left in the tyre just went 'woosh' and i was left staring at a large slice in the tyre.
I was just beginning to become annoyed at this point and turned to tell my daughter, when a car went past and honked as it did, i looked up to see my husband (who was meeting us at the other end of the ride) go past, so i waved him down. Talk about fantastic timing! We hitched the bike onto the back of the car and took off our wet shoes and drove the rest of the way.
So we had lunch, i did well with a sandwich and fruit, then dinner was a BBQ for geocachers at which point i was really hitting the wall tired and started to overeat. On the plus side the foods i ate were mostly meat and veg, with only a couple of chippies and bits of other things. Woke today feeling rather hungover (much like the possum we saw yesterday hanging over a fence dead!).
Today i'm resting and drinking a ton of water

been back on eating healthy diet, except for a couple slices of banana cake yesterday (but thats a fruit so its ok right?) The muffins ran out, so been having a lot of vegetable stews and soups with meat chunks or steak, its great!
Boarder is totally happy that he's loosing weight without even trying heh. Feeling a bit headachy today, and yesterday i had an allergy day so very little exercise has been done. Ill get on the spin bikt either tonight or tomorrow morning.

Okay, scales say a couple kg down, diet went out the window on the weekend but hasnt been too bad otherwise. Had a couple small things that have been just annoying me, chocolate (small amount), butter chicken for dinner etc. Today im countering some of that with veg and bacon bone soup. Also, I have been doing more on the spin bike again, and have a 90km bike race/ride this weekend. The forcast is for pouring rain, so im sure its going to be mega enjoyment (NOT!)
