My schedule is all out of whack because of this dumb winter weather so I ran out of time this morning and didn't get any breakfast in for the second day in a row. I did get my coffee made (just barely) and had that on the way to work.
For lunch I had brought some Buffalo Sneakers. They are like Pizza Rolls but lower in fat and calories and they go in the microwave. They are a little spicy and have good flavor to them. I also have a cherry cobbler yogurt and an orange.
I finished my eight cups of water in the afternoon.
For supper my wife made chicken fried rice. I love, love, LOVE her chicken fried rice and over indulged in it with two bowls. We use steeped chicken breasts, scallions, eggs (the cholesterol free kind in a box), white rice, soy sauce and fried rice seasoning packet we get at the grocery store. We also made mini egg rolls which I had six of. The best part of chicken fried rice is that we make a lot so there is extra for lunch tomorrow and more supper tomorrow night.

February 2nd Exercise Diary
I walked on the treadmill for twenty eight minutes today. I did ten inclined verticals and a light jog for a minute in the middle. I ended up going 1.5 miles. I watched the news and listened to my iPod while I was walking and it seemed to make the time go a little faster. Also there was no one in the workout room while I was down there which is the way I like it.
February 1st Food Diary
Mother Nature stepped in and caused me to miss breakfast with her snow and ice. So all I had this morning, after being out side in the cold, was a much needed cup of coffee with creamer in it.
For lunch I had a meatloaf and mashed potatoes frozen dinner, an orange delight yogurt and a orange.
I didn't finish my 8 cups of water today. The afternoon flew by today.
For supper we braved the freezing temperatures, wind and snow to get some Temperature Tuesday Runzas. I mean come on they were only one cent (with purchase of fries and a drink). In all reality I wouldn't have even thought about going out in the weather we were having if I didn't need to get gas. I had a Runza, Large fries, and a large lemonade. I also got some ranch dipping sauce for my fries. Then after supper I had a small bowl of Crunch N Munch while we watched TV.

February 1st Exercise Diary
I got up early to do a little snow blowing but it wasn't as bad as i thought it was going to be so it wasn't much of a work out. Then after work I had to do a little snow blowing again but once again it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Over all it didn't take a lot of effort to get the drive way snow free which was a nice change of pace from the last few snow storms we have had.
At lunch I went twenty eight minutes on the elliptical again. I averaged 6.3mph and went 3.0 miles. I did twelve speed intervals interval, 7 at a minute and 5 at thirty seconds.
I thought I had out lasted the lady in the weight room last week when she didn't show up last Wednesday and Thursday and then didn't show this Monday. Unfortunately she showed back up today so our battle of wills will continue. LOL

January 31st Food Diary
For breakfast I had a bowl of grape nuts and a glass of V8 Strawberry Banana juice and then a cup of coffee and creamer on the way to work.
At lunch I had a Three Cheese Chicken and Rice frozen dinner, a Strawberry Banana Yogurt and an orange.
I finished my eight cups of water with supper.
For supper we baked some chicken breasts and when they were almost done we put bacon and cheese on them and let the cheese melt. Then I dipped them in a little BBQ sauce. I ended up eating two breasts. I probably should have just had one but they were so good I caved in and had the second one. After supper I had a granola bar and a bag of microwave kettle corn popcorn.

Janaury 31st Exercise Diary
I did twenty eight minutes on the elliptical today with twelve speed intervals of 30 seconds or a minute. I averaged 6.3mph and went 3.0 miles. It felt really good to get back on the elliptical after a few days off. This officially marked the end of the month and I went a total of 30.9 miles this month between the elliptical and the tread mill. Since next month is a short month and I will be gone for a week I won’t be able to eclipse that mileage mark in February but in March, with the addition of an evening workout, I should have no problem going farther.
January 28th - January 30th Weekend Update
We ran some errands on Friday night and on the way home I finally gave in to the temptation of twenty chicken nuggets for five dollars at McDonald's. I also had a large fry and a snack size McFlurry.
On Saturday I weighed in and lost weight! Woo Hoo!!! Then for lunch my wife got some tacos from Amigo's on her way home from work. I had two soft tacos and two crunchy tacos. I didn't snack at all during the day witch I was very proud of. Then for supper we meet my family for my Mom's Birthday and had pizza at Ramono's Pizza. I had three cheese bread sticks and two pieces of meaty pizza. Then we went back to my sister’s house and had some TCBY Frozen Yogurt cake.
Sunday we got up early and went to meet my wife's family for her Uncles 90th Birthday. We ate a brunch buffet at the Outpost Grille. The food was not the best quality or selection, so luckily that meant I didn't over eat. I started out with the best item on the buffet a made to order omelet. Mine had ham, bacon, mushrooms and cheese. I also had a few waffles, they were pretty good to. I had two waffles with syrup on them and two with strawberries on them. The rest of the buffet was sad to say the least. I did have a piece of sausage with my second plate of waffles but it was really dry and looked like it had been laying in the warmer for way to long. To top off the meal I had a sad looking apple turnover that turned out to taste really good. By the time we got home it was late so we just ordered some sandwiches from Mr. Goodcent’s and had them delivered. I had a Turkey Artichoke Club. It was a new sandwich on their menu and it was good enough that I would order it again.
Over all it was a pretty good weekend, I didn’t feel like I over ate too much and I didn't binge or graze at all.
The exciting news of the weekend was that we got the call that our recumbent bike is in and it will be delivered at the end of the month. I am very excited to get the bike and start working out in the evening along with my lunch time workouts.
