Things Not to Try Again

 

Oh look, another chicken salad ... 

I'm thinking I really need to measure out the chicken. I just eyeballed it yesterday, and good LORD was I tired after I finished. Probably somewhere between 3.5-4 ounces of the chicken would be sufficient. My eyeballs are not scales, so who knows how much chicken I actually put in there. It was still good though. 

Dare I say, of course, now that I have at least 10 more servings of birria chicken, that I'm seeing the end of the road with regards to my current "Southwest Chicken Salad" for lack of a better term. 

At least it was filling. I did not eat again til about 8:00 pm. Then, because I didn't learn about weighing out the foods, I made an ENORMOUS bowl of Greek yogurt with not a few, but rather TOO many fresh berries, and some peaches, along with the standard hemp hearts, chia seeds, and crushed pecans. It was rather spectacular in flavor. I might have been fine, had I not finally made and tried that Boursin-cheese-replica recipe ... I had some of those parmesan crackers for dipping: 

Not only did I add far too much garlic, it was just one of the richest things I've eaten in a long while, and my gut fought back. So, yeah ... No. I'm thinking I will use it for either a sauce or just bake it on top of chicken boobage, or possibly use some of it to make cauliflower mash. Gotta temper it with some logical REAL food. I didn't take a picture because I just shoved it in a plastic container, but it looks pretty much like the recipe picture did, here.

That all being said, I still PROBABLY came in at significantly less calories for the day because I was too miserable to eat more than a handful of Elote almonds later. 

Today, I track, and see what happens. 

Happy to report that I am fully recovered from the weekend's poor choices, and back down below 210. 

Nettie and I enjoyed a long walk around the estate. It was gloriously warm, and only moderately windy. The sun was out, the birds were out. It was a great afternoon. 

All kinds of things were odd yesterday, but everything still worked out. 

I really don't have a lot to talk about. Got a lot of work to do today, so I should probably get to it. 

Have an excellent day!
