Ah, hump day ...
Still chilly tonight -- wasn't too bad during the day though. In fact, I
was so cold at my desk today I went outside to warm up during my lunch
break! Come on warm weather, I'm tired of being cold.
Today's menu:
Special K Choc Flakes (60g) with 1c choc soy milk,
1 medium sliced banana and 33 blueberries
Pizza Roll (no Toffutti) and
1/2 bag Pitango organic Tomato Thyme soup
Mexican beans and rice in a bowl*

* Mexican beans and rice in a bowl was just something quick I threw
together -- had a can of refried beans, a can of chili beans, a jar of
salsa, and 2 cups of cooked brown rice. Added about half a cup of
sliced Kalamata olives. Divided into 4 portions, and served up one
portion with diced tomatoes and a handful of my spinach/rocket/kale
salad mix. Stirred it all up. Basically like bean and rice burritos
but no tortillas, just served in a bowl. It wasn't quite as thick as
burrito filling either, maybe less salsa next time. That's all, keeping
it a lower calorie day today.
Also got in a 50 minute walk on the trail with several good inclines.
Next week is my shoulder surgery (unless they cancel me again) so who
knows what's going to happen to my schedule after that. Hopefully I'll
still be up to my walks. I'm really more worried how I'm going to
sleep! I sleep on my left side most of the time, and this is my left
shoulder so ... may have to find a new sleeping position for a while.
That's going to suck. I've tried sleeping on the other side, just to
try to get used to it, but I hate it and always end up back on my left
side. Maybe I'll just sleep on my back for a while. We'll have to see.
Anyway, that's it for today -- see you tomorrow.
