Uh, since I completely forgot to post a What We're Eating Wednesday. Sheesh!

Breakfast: coffee (and peppermint mocha creamer). I woke up weirdly un-hungry today! I brought a couple of clementines to work, in case I want something before lunch.

Lunch: will be a grilled turkey-and-cheddar sandwich and salad.

Dinner: thin crust bacon lovers' pizza (frozen, for I am a true gourmand), steamed broccoli and cauliflower.

Snacks: assorted Halloween candy, what are you gonna do, such is life.

I'm having a pretty basic/boring food day over here -- what are the rest of you enjoying?

    Breakfast - 1/2 pot of coffee, two boiled eggs, Caveman paleo bar, low sodium V8

    Lunch - Turkey and cheese sandwich with avocado, spinach, and tomato. Roasted beets on the side.

    Snack - Beef Jerky

    Snack - Apple and almond butter

    Snack - String Cheese

    Dinner - This Tuscan inspired tomato and cod fish thing I do with asparagus and mushrooms and onions

    Other - a couple beers

    As a side note, I'm not paleo, but I like the "Caveman" bars...I just find it kind of ironic that paleo shuns processed food...unless it's their own marketed processed food...just think it's funny...

    Breakfast-2 eggs, 4 slices of bacon
    Lunch-Tuna salad, 22 pretzels
    Dinner (planned)-Coffee with hazelnut cream, chicken and cheese sandwich, 22 pretzels, and probably a piece of candy for dessert

    After all that I’ll still have ~200 calories left. Not sure what I’ll do with them—maybe have a couple bites of ice cream or have extra coffee.
