What I Ate Wednesday 8.24.16

 

I apologize if you had any trouble logging into my site yesterday. From what I understand, my site was causing problems somewhere on the server so they shut it down on me and then had me do traumatic things in FTP in order to get it back.

Please don’t ask me what I had to do or what exactly was wrong because I don’t even understand what I am saying but I think I fixed it for now. If I continue to have problems though, I am going to switch hosts but that scares me because I am not good with change although I may have no choice.

Anyway.

It’s What I Ate Wednesday which means we talk food but I often talk food just like I did yesterday when I told the old but important story of the time I had cookies for dinner.

Let’s discuss what I ate yesterday which might as well be what I ate for the last two days since I basically repeated most of what you will see below both Monday and Tuesday.

Breakfast:

The usual pre-run breakfast of a small bowl of oatmeal and a piece of a banana with coffee. I took the picture before heating the oatmeal and banana up in the microwave. I like my oatmeal to be really soupy before my run because I find it easier to digest that way.

After my run, I did something slightly different! I went back to eating greek yogurt this week and really enjoyed it both mornings combined with cold oatmeal and berries. I used to eat my post-run breakfast with greek yogurt just like this every day for a really long time which you may recall.

At some point last year, I stopped eating greek yogurt because I decided that I no longer liked it (which always happens after a stomach virus).

I am not ready to go back to eating plain greek yogurt though. I have to adjust to such a taste since it has been so long so instead I had some of my son’s Vanilla Chobani 100. I really liked it!

Lunch:

In between conference calls, I toasted a slice of cinnamon raisin Ezekiel bread and then topped it with peanut butter, raspberry jelly and banana slices. I had another slice just like this a few hours later just without the banana slices.

I like when I eat “lunch” this way because then my stomach never gets overly full. I cannot handle the overly full feeling during the day.

Dinner:

Simple yet delicious dinner of a Dr. Praeger’s Veggie Burger, oven baked fries and broccoli. It’s meals like this that I could live on forever.

I love when I have enough patience to let my oven baked fries cook long enough to get super crispy!

It had been a while since I made oven baked fries from a regular potato since I normally survive on sweet potatoes and Japanese sweet potatoes. Nothing quite like a regular white potato, you know?

Dessert:

I am sort of done with apples and peanut butter these days. I just don’t want the combo at night like I usually do and when I go to eat it, I realize it’s really not what I want! I am working on figuring out what it is I want after dinner but for now, Ralph’s Ices works really well for me.

Oh, and I had watermelon throughout the day. I almost forgot about that.
