Accountability - Monday

First day of my week off. I was up at 4:00 and doing laundry and such..Today we also went out to an ancient turkey ranch. We had seen the images of the foundations from the zillow website and wondered what the heck they could be..40 x 300 feet and there are 11 of them in the middle of the desert..so we went and looked and walked the property taking pictures..I shared the photos with an oldtimer group on facebook..some people knew workers at the plant and lived there in the 50s..

Anyway, my eats for the day:

Coffee

Coffee

1/2 egg burrito from the other day

double espresso latte with sugar free caramel sauce

24 oz drink mix with ice, Hawaiian Punch Orange

24 oz drink mix with no ice, Grape

Lunch: 1/2 meatball marinara sandwich on flat bread..

hard boiled egg

Dinner: 1/4 lb bison burger on a sandwich thin with processed cheese, bacon and barbecue sauce

I need another couple bottles of water and I'm not doing well on my vitamins either..keep trying! On another front, the endoscopy I had on Wednesday did hurt my shoulder. I have a swollen joint and can't take nsaids so...we ice it. several times a day to 6 or 8 times, the therapist said..lovely. ouch.

Totals for the day:
Calories: 1572
Fat: 78.7
Carbs: 135.4
Protein: 87.5

Still not bad. Could have been much worse.

How did you do?

An ancient turkey ranch; how interesting! Too bad about the shoulder, it seems like you were getting some relief with PT prior to the endoscopy. How nice to be off all week. I am so far behind at work that I wi**** was not a holiday week, but I guess it will still be there on Monday! I finally made it to the YMCA today; it felt so good to sweat again! I got a B 12 shot today and will monthly from here on out. I do not absorb it anymore for some reason.
0900-crustless quiche
1100-apple
1300 black bean soup and 1/2 turkey on wheat w veggies
1600-other half sandwich
2000-black bean soup and crustless quiche
all my water and such. We are having that prime rib tomorrow before it goes bad!
I am tired, but thirsty from dinner so once I can chug some  more water or tea I am going to bed early!

Apparently Ralston Purina contracted a ranch here to see about raising 100 lb turkeys. They managed to raise them to 50 lbs but the bigger birds didn't happen and didn't catch on. In the 1950's the owner of the ranch was on What's My Line and they didn't guess his profession..It was a huge ranch. Five barns 300 feet long, full power and water connections. The only thing that is left are the foundations..Plus six more barns a bit away from the five we walked yesterday.

After seeing the PT yesterday, I had my first good night sleep since the endoscopy..ouch..so I'm back on the mend. I'm baking today for some gifts to give to the girls at my PT office and a friend I'm meeting tomorrow from Temecula up for the holiday..

I watch my B12 and all my vitamins..I hope that never happens to me but I keep watching in any case..

My water totals are hurting..but I'm drinking a big cup of tea (24 oz) before bed anyway..trying to keep it up to at least 3 containers if not the full five..and my vitamins..not great. but still remembering to take them throughout the day..

Have a nice holiday. I may or may not be able to post my lists for the next couple of days..but I'll be thinking of you all..

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
