Anybody else having a really bad dietary day?

This morning I said FUCK IT... I'm going to eat what I crave.

So I had two big bowls of buttery yellow grits for breakfast.

And for lunch two links of spicy smoked boudin.

And just now I had potato chips sprinkled with habanero sauce.

And tonight... who knows... I'm thinking a cheddar cheese quesadilla.

4. Remember when we used to open a bag of fritos

and pour some chili, cheese sauce, green onions, and sour cream in there?

That's what I want while quarantined.

No temptations. I do eat throughout the day and night, but it in small amounts (like tapas).

7. I had some soup, bread and butter too. And chocolate. Lots of chocolate.

Told my oldest granddaughter today that I have eaten all of her Easter chocolate. She just laughed.
I wonder if she knows I was serious?

And now I’m drinking wine. And trying not to think.

12. I'm actually losing weight...

...back in the days of civilization--and doesn't that already feel like another age of the world?--I'd eat two meals a day, and a late snack. Brunch-lunch would usually be an excursion to McDonald's or Popeye's, and an easy 1000 calories. Now, I just have a sandwich, usually turkey bologna and cheese, because I'm too stressed to eat more. I have a normal dinner, and maybe crackers and peanut butter before bed. I've lost six pounds the past two weeks...

13. I've had trouble with my appetite for weeks.

So I eat whatever I think I'll consume the most of. A few days it was 12 ounces of Haagen-Dazs Ice Cream for supper. They don't sell it in 16 ounce pints anymore.

A good time to invest in gym stocks while market is lower. They'll rise amazingly once isolation is over. Everyone will be #s heavier!

17. No, I had scrambled eggs and wheat toast

Then cheese sandwich with an apple and some carrots and celery.

Not eating out like I did a lot before the lockdown. So this might be a good thing for me, weightwise.

25. I've had one banana and some raisin bran

For dinner it is potato salad, 4 oz of pork, and strawberries. It is low calorie and small portions.

I would rather be gorging at a buffet, so, yes. It is a really bad dietary day.

26. Living in earthquake country, I've always maintained a well-stocked pantry.

Not necessarily the healthiest diet, but it's fine to bridge what the local stores can offer in fresh. And a good excuse to dig into the Haagen=Daaz taking up space in the freezer.

Mr. pig forages once or twice a week and says bread is in short supply. Lots of empty shelves that he can't remember used to be stocked with.

All I can say is, if the cable goes out we are in BIG trouble!

29. I eat whatever the fuck I want, at pretty much all times ...

A lot of times, I want something pretty healthy but by no means all. And even when eating well, I don't watch fat or salt all that much.

Although I'm mellow on the sweets, I like an awful lot of fried stuff. Chicken, chips, and french fries in particular.

But hey, Mr. L. is here for a good time, not a long time ...

30. Making a big pot of what my mother called 'refrigerator soup'.

A mish-mosh of leftovers from the refrigerator in a tomato base, fresh vegetables, and Italian seasoning. Will freeze the leftovers as a base for another pot later.

Since I haven't been working, I'm not burning the calories I used to, so making healthy lower calorie meals a few days a week.

31. I'm gaining weight

So far about 5 lbs. I’ve been moved to the kitchen at work and we snack. A lot. I never realized how much back of house eats, lol!

Plus, everyone has been bringing in homemade cookies and cupcakes and stuff to share amongst the 6 of us to keep morale up. My boss baked pizzas for us yesterday.

I need to take the snacking down a notch or three. I blame the dishwasher and his love of ice cream. He’s a bad influence.
