Healthy Food

OK, I know I just said this wasn’t going to be a diet blog, but I’ve been searching for healthy recipies and just remembered one I already know how to make. I posted a recipie for a breakfast casserole some time ago but I can’t find it. Anyway, here is the healthy version:

Ingredients:
Egg Whites
Fat Free Cheese
Whole Grain Bread
Skim Milk
Pam cooking spray or similar
Turkey Bacon
99 % Fat Free Ham
Mrs. Dash or Spike
Cracked Black Pepper

Spray a casserole dish with the cooking spray. Rip up the bread (maybe two slices or so) and coat the bottom of the dish with it. Kind of mush it down a little. Whisk together the egg whites (about 7 or 8), the skim milk (about a fourth of a cup), the turkey bacon (chopped up), the ham (chopped up as well), the fat free cheese, and season it with some Mrs. Dash or Spike and some cracked black pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the bread. Refrigerate overnight to let the flavors mingle. Pop it in the oven at 350 degrees for about a hour. Serve with hot sauce or ketchup, if you want to.

Am a Pig

So I counted calories all week, made good choices about what to eat, wore my pedometer and counted steps, and tried to be more active during the day. Except for Friday. And yesterday. Well, and today so far, but it doesn’t count because I have a migraine.

Friday I started the day with a cheese omelet, bacon, hash browns, and a biscuit from the cafe at work. I only ate about a fourth of the omelet, two bites of the hash browns, and half of the biscuit. Oh, and both pieces of bacon. The worst part about all of that was that I drank an enoromous Pepsi, which I’d been avoiding previously.

Then, for lunch? McDonald’s. So good. So bad for me. Combo 2 with no onions and a Sprite. Another soda! Bad me!

Then I ate about a whole fried chicken, some soup, and drank ANOTHER soda.

Yesterday I did OK for breakfast, BAD for lunch at TGI Friday’s with my mom (damn you, tiny delicious cheeseburgers!), and then ate a piece of fried chicken when I got home.

So in essence, I undid all the good work I did Monday through Thursday. Going to start again tomorrow with renewed vigor and dedication. Don’t worry, this isn’t going to turn into a diet blog. I’ll start a new blog for that if it turns out to be something I want to write about. I’ll just tell you about my backslides and disgusting things I eat in the hopes it will either a) make me feel guilty enough not to do it anymore, or b) make you feel better about the crap you eat.
