Update

I've been a slacker this week in keeping track of my grazing, I mean eating. This being home all day, job hunting on the web is most certainly not conducive to avoiding snacking, much less being enjoyable. I do have the weight stats, though, so here they are.

6/26 - 278.2 lbs and 35.6% body fat.

6/27 - 278.8 lbs and 36.3% body fat.

6/28 - 277.4 lbs and 36.6% body fat.

I'm not doing as well as I'd hoped, much less as well as the other bloggers in our little competition, but this is the lowest weigh-in that I've had without the assistance of food poisoning! Woo hoo! I did track my food intake today, so I can give you those details here.

Breakfast
Instant Breakfast - 220 cal

Snack
R/F Wheat Thins - 240 cal

Lunch
Lean Gourmet Lagsana - 320 cal
Campbells Select Chicken Noodle Soup - 180 cal
3 pcs ghiradelli 70% cocoa dark chocolate (holy crap is this stuff good) - 140 cal

Snack
R/F Wheat Thins - 240 cal

Dinner
Chipotle Chicken Burrito - 1047 cal

Total for the day - 2387 cal. I honestly had no idea the burritos were that evil. For the record, I checked on Calorie King to see what the chicken burrito salad option checks in at, because that's the way I try to order when we eat at Chipotle. Getting the chicken salad instead of the burrito saves more than 300 cal (704 vs 1047). The major culprit is the flour tortilla at 340 cal. Good to know.

One thing I've tried to do, both to try and control my eating/physical activity and to simply help my mental state while I job hunt is to put myself on a schedule. No more coming in from walking the dog and plopping down in front of the computer to surf job listings while playing poker, and deciding to shower at 2 in the afternoon. Frankly it will probably help my poker game, too. Set time for the dog walks, set time for the gym, set time for job hunt/web surfing, set time for poker, and with the weather as fan-dam-tastic as it's been here in San Diego, set time for the beach. Hope life is good wherever you are.
