FOOD BLOG #2

SO

For this weeks food log its kind of....uh...disgraceful.

Not only did I not really log anything but I think I had one "balanced" meal the whole week, which was a wrap on a spinach tortilla (which I only ate because my mom made me lunch) with buffalo chicken lunch meat and humus with some pop chips and a fruit mix.

At work they extended nurses week an extra few days so I ate there because I have no will power, I opted for the veggie burgers to save on fat and also because they're super good, no bun because the bread makes me sick with beans, coleslaw (much better this time) and some chips and I had that about three times through the week, along with chick fil a one day because we were busy and I had cake 5 times 💩, it was graduation for one of my coworkers kids and she brought in an extra cake she had like a devil and cake is my absolute favorite so....y'know.

I don't really even remember what all I ate besides that, its just been a mess, the only good thing is since I was so about eating healthier and all that shit it made me really disappointed reflecting on all the decisions I made. I knew it wouldn't be something I did 100% at the beginning so the guilt is a good thing I suppose, it means I still have this idea that I'm going to do better in my mind.

FOOD VLOG #1

Starting 4/29

Sunday

• breakfast - nothing 
• lunch - spicy miso ramen noodles (maruchan) around 250 calories I think
• dinner - a pina colada pureed popsicle (solero) and then about 30 minutes later I decided I wanted another one so I got a mango one, about 160 calories each

Monday

I slept most off and on most of the day because I felt awful with allergies and couldn't really breathe or taste so I had some crackers every couple hours

Tuesday

• breakfast - nothing 
• lunch - canned mini raviolis (chef boyardee my actual fucking weakness right here) at 460 calories with a small bag of plain potato chips at 200 calories
• dinner - spicy chicken ramen noodles at 210 calories

wednesday

• breakfast - caramel walnut brownie protein bar (luna) 190 calories and a sugar free redbull  at 5 calories
• lunch - 4 sesame seeds wasa thins at 160 calories, tuna with relish and mayo at 100 calories and 2 spicy pepperjack cheeses (laughing cow) at 70 calories
• dinner - uncrustable at 320 calories and bean and rice chips, barbecue flavor (beanfields) at 140 calories

thursday

• breakfast - caramel walnut brownie protein bar (luna) 190 calories
• lunch - tuna with relish 70 calories on sesame seed wasa thin crackers at 80 calories for 2
• dinner - frozen ziti with sauce and cheese (lean cuisine ?) at 310 calories

friday

• breakfast - nothing
• lunch - went to applebees and I ate soooooo much we had wonton tacos, brisket quesadilla, honey bbq boneless wings, and mozzarella sticks and I kind of looked at the calories and I'm guessing I probably had around 1800 - 2000 calories

And I didn't eat anything for dinner this day because I had a gallbladder attack around dinner time and I'm pretty sure its because of the ONE MOZZARELLA STICK I ATE. I don't really like them that much but my mom was like, "nooo these are so good try one". By the time it passed (about 15 or 20 minutes) and my stomach was finally settled I was exhausted so I just went to bed.

Saturday

• Breakfast - caramel walnut brownie protein bar (luna) 190 calories
• Lunch - Broccoli cheddar soup at 250 calories and 2 wasa thins with laughing cow swisss cheese at 150 calories together
• Dinner - Tuna with mayo and relish at 100 calories and 2 wasa thins at 70 calories ( we got really busy at work with emergencies so I didn't have time to eat all of my dinner)

Sunday

• Breakfast - 2 mini tortillas 150 calories filled with egg and cheese at 100 calories, totally not worth it I don't know why I keep fucking with eggs because they make my stomach hurt so bad.
• Lunch - DELICIOUS Veggie burger with the worst coleslaw I've ever had and the best baked beans I've ever had. They had a cook out at work in honor of nurses week and the last day all staff were invited to get food so I only have a rough estimate of the calories, between 700 - 800.
• dinner - a solera pina colada fruit puree popsicle - 160 (we got super busy at work and I was still feeling those eggs so I wasn't hungry)

intro to food vlogging

I want to try and do a kind of "food log" type thing every week or so and see if that also helps me out, maybe if I have a few days of too much indulging or not a lot of activity I can maybe reflect on the type of week I've had or what was maybe going and really see how things in life are affecting my diet and stuff.

I'll try to include calories of each thing if I can remember, I use the fitbit app to log my eating also but I'd like to do it here as well, I feel like maybe writing it all out will affect me, or give me time to reflect on something more than just logging something as I'm eating and then forgetting about it.

This weeks will not be too impressive, I finally succumbed to allergy season and have been feeling really fucking puny all week long, so I definitely did not do my at least 30 minutes of physical activity on my off days nor did I really make sure I was eating breakfast lunch and dinner each day, there are lots of skips of the meals going on, not purposely but because I either forgot, got busy or...as for breakfast, wasn't awake. 

I have to post queued up to post after this one, I originally had it all together but the post was just getting super long.

I'll try to make future ones look a little nicer and maybe include picture every now and then but I wanted to get in my first one before I started forgetting what I had eaten ( which I'm sure will happen in the future anyways ), but as I was typing and reading over my meals for the week I was unimpressed at the decisions I made and I already want to make next week better. While I knew I had a lot of not so healthy things, which is fine to go out and have a lil' sumin sumin with family or friends every now and then, I really thought I made way more good decisions than I actually did.
