Calorie Countdown - Tell us what you ate on Tuesday!

Good morning ladies (and again any men who happen to wander by) - How are you today?  I am tired, but perking up a little bit.  The neighbor is cooking something slow and its permeating our apartment too.  I woke up to this odd smell, not exactly good but not completely bad either.  Sort of like taco meat.  It solved my hunger dilemma though - nope I am NOT hungry right now.  I know you are supposed to eat breakfast, but its always kind of hit or miss with me.  I do best with a liquid like milk or a latte or some tea.  Anything more solid I need a few hours before I attempt.  I've always been like that, even before surgery. Today I plan to ignore my husband (someone is filling his shift so he can study for an exam Thurs).  We will go grocery shopping, since now its an emergency - we are out of cat food and toilet paper.   I will also complete the slides for another presentation that I am giving tomorrow.  Procrastination may or not be my problem - I'll decide and tell you later. 

B-scrambled eggs, 2 peice turkey bacon L-Tuna salad D- turkey cutlets S-cheese stick - protein shake

The things that constitute a grocery store emergency in my house include (1) toilet paper, (2) cat food, (3) cat litter, and (4) milk.  Anything else we can do without for a day or two!  Anyway, here's what I've eaten so far today and my plan for the rest of the day EDITED Wednesday to reflect the rest of what I ate in the evening!!!  My appetite really goes up during the week before my period starts and I was just hungry in the evening.  I'd eat something, wait 20 minutes or so, and if I still felt hungry I ate something else.  Did this until I wasn't hungry any more!!!!  Look forward to arrival of Aunt Flo and departure of increased appetite

In one of her past lives, my sister must have lived in a time where they did not have toilet paper, for running out of it is one of her biggest fears.  Consequently, every time Costco has a coupon sale for cash off their big packages of TP, she buys some.  I think we currently have five cases of TP in the garage.   What did I eat today?
