Well, well, well. Tony has a brother or a friend -- and he is a bit more aggressive. Now I have 2 of those birds to watch out for when I am working and/or sitting in the yard. They seem to get more territorial when I am on the ground. When I am standing they just walk around me and depending on how close they are to me, they may or may not be puffed up and tail feathers spread. The crazy thing is they hide in the woods and I am working out in the wide open space and they come out of hiding and come out to me.
I weighed myself this morning and I am down form yesterday but up from a couple days ago. I am hovering are a setpoint that I got stuck at in the past. I am thinking I have have to go with the Maximum Weight Loss guidelines if I want to lose. In other words, I will need to eat more nonstarchy vegetables -- every since the grandchildren were here I sort of took a break from those.
Yesterday I had some shredded wheat cereal - the sugared kind, I ate it because it was leftover. I added a banana to it and topped it off with cashew/coconut milk.
Then I went out and worked in the garden, fended off the 2 grouses at different times, and then started a campfire and made hobo dinner--onion, carrot, peas and potato wrapped in foil. I also made an apple pear cranberry dessert. Since the fire was going, I made some s'mores.
GD1 was here so we went for a walk down to the lake and back.
I really need to prepare my meal before I start my outside work. So today, I am going to make that bean soup I was planning to make the other day.
For breakfast, I ate some graham crackers that were left over from last night. I realize now that I saw and ate without giving it much thought other than, "Oh, this will taste good with my coffee."
Today, I plan to eat:
coffee
graham crackers
bean soup -- onion, carrot, celery, potato, beans
salad: romaine, sweet kale mix, beet, shredded carrot
