Swiss chard with bacon- decadent dinner for sure!
Will need to eat a snack later to hit my protein target, but carbs and cals are in great shape
Exercise- a bit over an hour on the elliptical, and ony a little sore (surgical soreness) so super happy about that! Feeling like it is doable to work this in twice a week, albeit against doc's orders.

Long work shift today. I haven't had time to cook, sadly, so today's a bit more dairy heavy. Still on the cusp of being sick, but trying to at least get more calories in. I skipped many meals this week having been sick.Still on the cusp of being sick, but trying to at least get more calories in. I skipped many meals this week having been sick.
