The slow points week, otherwise known as "rest the knee so I can go on my trip in May without problems" week (less catchy), continues on pace. Despite doing the math at the end of the last challenge, I hadn't realized how significant the nearly daily exercise really was towards my point accrual. More importantly, this week's lack of exercise is really bringing down my daily average. I'm still netting points, but I'm just not feeling productive.
On an unrelated note. I know there's a lot of tasty healthy food out there, but sometimes switching from the junk food I love to a healthier version just doesn't work. At lunch today, instead of the traditional bag of normal Lay's chips (240 calories) I got a bag of Baked Lay's (120 calories). Unfortunately they do not taste even close to the same. Maybe it's the salt, maybe the lack of deep frying, but the Baked Lay's did not satisfy my chip craving at all. What they ended up seeming like was a thin, kind of disappointing, cracker rather than a chip.
Food today: egg and cheese sandwich for breakfast (300 calories), 6-inch meatball sub and a bag of Baked Lay's (600 calories), snacks were a few little pieces of chocolate and jelly beans (100 calories), dinner was pasta, sauce and garlic toast (1000 calories). No exercise again.
My meals have been repetitive lately, but I am still trying to load up on more fiber than protein. So lots of pasta.
