I'm trying to get the most out of my salads. I've started making them mostly out of spinach, and I always add a handful of edamame. This week, I'm throwing in a little cabbage to up the fiber content. It's also a little crunchier than spinach and lettuce, so it's more to chew. I need to chew. Major oral fixation.

1/31 Breakfast: 2 eggs, ER blueberry oatmeal, 1/2 grapefruit, coffee Workout: 5 min walking 3.5 mph 5.0 incline, 55 min running 5.8 mph 0.5 incline. Lunch: Subway 6" Turkey Breast on Wheat, Sun Chips Dinner: Monkfish, red potatoes, salad, 2 glasses of Cabernet, and two pieces of Ethel's Chocolate. Marky and I cashed in our loose change that we've been collecting for quite a while, and went out to Davis Street Fish Market with the booty.
2/1 Breakfast: ER blueberry oatmeal, 1/2 grapefruit, yogurt, coffee Workout: 1 hr alternating 5 min walk 3.5 mph, 5.0 incline/5 min run 5.8 mph, 0.5 incline Lunch: Jimmy John's Turkey and Ham on wheat with dijon, Skinny chips and diet soda Snack: Apple, cheese stick Dinner: ER Sesame Chicken, salad, beet, asparagus, 1 beer. It was the Big GAME, for crying out loud!
2/2 Breakfast: ER blueberry oatmeal, 1/2 grapefruit, yogurt, coffee, Super Bowl Table at Work: 8 pretzel sticks with sweet mustard, bowl of black bean soup, salad. I would like to take a moment and talk about the black bean soup that KT brought for this crazy spread. The soup was pretty basic, vegetarian, even. But there were add-ons like jalapenos, pepitas, onions, cilantro, lime wedges, avocado, and diced ham. I had it all, in small portions, with a cheese stick crumbled and melted on top. It was filling and delicious and reasonable, and a free lunch that made my day. Snack: Pear, cheese stick Workout: 30 min walking 3.5 mph 6.0 incline, 30 min elliptical trainer, 25 min kickboxing (jabs, hooks, crosses, straights, uppercuts, roundhouse kicks), situps with jabs, push and pull.

I made brownies, and they are a little more than the 100 calorie bars, but we're doing well on working out this week, so what the hell? I also picked up a cookie midday, and put it down. That's a triumph. Oh, and I cut the brownies really small, and we only ate one each.

I went to have a couple drinks with Kelly after work, and of course, ate a couple brownies that were intended for the rehearsal that never was.
2/5 Skipped breakfast--boo. Lunch: 1/2 Chipotle Chicken Panini and a cup of black bean soup from Panera, with French bread on the side--I should have gone with the apple, but Panera apples are always mealy and the other alternative was chips. Snack: Pear, 2 slices of Swiss Cheese, 5 pcs Turkey pepperoni Workout: 10 min walking 3.5 mph, 6.0 incline, 48 min run 5.8 mph, 0.5 incline Dinner: ER Butternut Squash Ravioli, beet, asparagus, salad, Slim-A-Bear ice cream sandwich.
