Day 15

So today was Easter and that meant eating a lot of desserts.  Since my most consistent readers happened to be at the same meal as me, there's not much use to trying to undersell how much of a pig I was today.  The only advantage I had as far as earning points on the day went was that since dinner occurred during the middle afternoon I ended up combining two meals into one.  Still was a big pig though, and when combined with no exercise to nurse the knee it meant a low scoring day.

Food today:  breakfast was the usual egg and cheese sandwich (300 calories), dinner was ham, some green beans (I think that's what they were) and some bread (800 calories), dessert though was a big piece of chocolate cream pie, some cookies and part of a cupcake (1200 calories total).  No exercise though to balance it out.

Today's Results:
Daily Food Total:  2300

Exercise:  0
Points Earned:  700
Total Points Earned:  20535
Points to go:  179465

Day 12

So there was one new challenge I had to deal with today.  I volunteered to make dinner rolls for Easter dinner, since we're looking at having 40 people there I need to find a way to maximize my baking.  Tonight was a test batch to see how they'd come out.  On the plus side I think I've got a strategy that should make sufficient baking only partially difficult.  On the downside, as tonight's test batch showed, that means a lot of extremely tasty fresh baked bread suddenly appearing in my house.  Needless to say, I had to sample to make sure it was good.

Food today:  egg and cheese sandwich (300 calories), PB&J (600 calories), penne, sauce and garlic toast (1000 calories), snacks included some chocolate and the aforementioned sourdough rolls (450 calories).  Exercise was a lunchtime walk and an hour of kickboxing (600 calories).
