Food and exercise - 18 August 2004

Food:

08.30 1 banana

12.45 Instant noodles with egg and tomato; 2 slices of wholemeal bread
made into a sandwich with Camembert cheese
(N.B. this was a crap lunch, and I regretted eating it! I really didn't
need the sandwich *and* the noodles. Still, it kept me full until
supper.)

20.15 Fish stew and home-made noodles - the stew was made from cod,
calamari, tomatoes, sweetcorn and flageolet beans, white wine (a
mistake, as it turned out, it would have been nicer without) and a
teaspoon of "rouille", a French fish-and-garlic mayonnaise. The noodles
were made from 1 cup wholemeal flour, 1 egg and 2 tablespoons cold water
(for 2 people). This was not what I had planned for supper; it had been
going to be butternut squash risotto, but I found, when I got that far,
that I had no risotto rice left!

1 organic apricot yogurt

22.00 1 nectarine

Exercise: Ice-skating 08.30-10.00, including 30 minutes' lesson.

Steps: 4162, but I kept my pedometer on while on the ice, and I'm not
sure how well it registered that. I won't do that again.

90/88/80kg

B.F - 1/2 cup cinnamon life
1/2 cup 1% milk


Lunch - (at a family friends house, she's 89)
1/2 an italian bun w/margarine
1/2 bear paw cookie
1/12th of a small caramel coffee cake
Tea


Dinner - 1 veal cutlett (breaded, baked)
- 1/2 cup brown rice
- 10 slices of cucumber dipped in french dressing


Snack - (playing scrabble at a friend's)
Handful of mixed nuts

Exercise - nothing substantial. An approx. walk of 15 minutes to the
grocery store and back (total 1/2 hr) for the 89yr old friend

Water - 4 ltrs

Total calories - 1246

I accepted the cake so as not to offend. I did notice that it affected me
almost immediately. My heart began to race a little quicker, my head felt
lighter. Both signs of the fact that it had too much sugar for me. I did
eat it slowly, taking 15 minutes to eat a piece the size of 3oz of cheese
(1x2in). I also drank plenty of water after as that seems to dilute the
sugar somewhat.

Once again I'm seriously missing veggies. That's partly due to being away
from the house as well as groceries need to be done here!!! As of yesterday
we are all out of cereal and we have no fruits in the house and the only
veggies are green peppers and cucumbers (grown in my sister's FIL's garden).

I have also aquired a guess pass at a nearby women's gym that I plan to
join come september. This way I can find out specifics on join up costs and
user fees as well as see the shape of the equipment. I'm excited about
that!!!

What is cinnamon life? I notice you eat it nearly every day, but I've
no idea what sort of food it is.

It's cereal. LIFE cereal with cinnamon. Not the greatest, but it was the
only thing on hand. Do you remember the commercial... Give it to mikey.
Hey! Mikey likes it!
