PWO Protein Drink

Was doing pretty good food-wise today until the bartender offered me a free drink. Why not?? Ugh, now I remember why I hate alcohol. One drink has given me a massive headache and my stomach is queasy. I'm getting so tired of having to go out to eat...

8 pm: 1 Glucorell-R

Meal 4: 8:15 pm

2 sesapure
1 Long Beach Iced Tea (made with cranberry juice rather than pepsi)
grilled chix salad w/ 3 oz chix and lettuce
1 T light dressing
12 oz water

Meal 5: 10 pm

1 T natty PB
Protein Drink

Totals: 1700 cals (33% protein, 31% carbs, 23% fat, 13% alcohol )

Will be on the hunt for plain egg whites and oatmeal again in the morning, but am going to sneak in some protein to mix in with the oatmeal.

Ugh, I have got to get out of this phuckin' hotel room NOW!!! I feel so out of sorts trying to make meals in a space I can barely move around in. My fridge isn't big enough to hold much, so I can't take all the snacks I need to work and end up eating something I shouldn't. Today was a dark choco candy bar!!

Not to mention the people above me last night were obviously out drinking. One of them must have passed out in the hotel room and locked the other one out. At 3:30 this morning I heard loud banging on the door and then "Steve, wake up!!" That went on for about 15 minutes, until someone in the room next to them started yelling, "Shut up, we're trying to sleep!" The yelling and banging went on for another 15 minutes before Steve finally woke up and let his buddy in. Talk about a 3-ring circus around this place. It would have been humorous if I didn't have to get up so early.

I did manage to find a roasted chix at the local grocery store. It was one of the best pieces of chicken I've ever eaten. Unfortunately, I devoured the damn thing due to hunger. White meat only - no skin! Think there must have been 8 oz or so there and I ate it all. It might have been healthy, but dang it was a lot of food. Now I have to go back and get another one and try to limit myself to 3-4 oz.

Gonna get up early and do HIIT cardio before work to punish myself for today. Then breakfast at Cracker Barrel. Seems to be the best place to get eggs (no butter or grease) and oatmeal. That may be my regular thing in the morning until I have a place of my own.

G'night all (I hope). I think Steve and his buddy are gone!

Living in a hotel and eating out when you are not on vacation really sucks, I feel for you. How much longer will this last?

 

[Roonytunes]

I definitely feel for ya, BG! Living in a hotel really gets confining after a while. I'm glad you've found a few decent dining options like Cracker & Barrel in the interim. Hang in there, girl, and I hope you'll be able to settle into permanent quarters soon

Thanks girls. It'll be AT LEAST another month. It's almost impossible to close on a house up here in less than 30 days, so I've been told. I haven't even found one yet...

I'm making the best of it though. Walked in to Cracker Barrel this morning and they already had my breakfast prepared. Oatmeal w/ bananas, egg beaters, whole wheat toast, water (no lemon) and no ketchup. This woman knew EXACTLY what I wanted. Gawd, I've become a regular and still have a month to go! It is awfully good tho. Snuck in my whey protein to throw in the oatmeal and it was just like eating at home.

BG, I'm not sure why, but that is just really cool. How awesome! That little bit of comfort and routine will make things a little better.

That is SO funny!!! Should have walked by them and grunted when you were done!!!!
