The Sh*t I Do Eat

July 19, 2012 By 7 Comments

athletesplate_vegetarian_triathleteYesterday I posted More Sh*t To Avoid which was a follow-up to Sh*t I’m Never Eating Again and one of the comments from Jeff Irvin over at Dangle The Carrot was to do a post on sh*t we can actually eat and that it would be a short post.

With that in mind I am posting my dinners from the past week.  This is the foods that I do eat and an interesting thing occurred to me this week while I was following this diet.  I gained weight, and yes a part of that can be attributed to the Ultra-Sherpa’ing I did for Karen during her El Scorcho 50K.  I was eating to stay awake but in looking at my food journal I notice that I was incorporating a lot of whole grains in my meals.  Normally I may have a serving of whole grains per day, but that wasn’t the case in the past week.  There were days where I had 3 servings (breakfast: slice of Alvarado St Rye Bread with sliced bananas.  Lunch: Sandwich on Alvarado St Rye bread.  Dinner: Tempeh Adobada with homemade tortillas made with whole wheat flour.

Once I noticed this I adjusted my intake and dropped nearly 3 lbs in two days.  Amazing what a small change in your diet can result in.

So the results from the announcement of D-Day: Determination Day are as follows:

  • Weight Loss: 4 lbs
  • Body Fat: Down 3%
  • Muscle Mass: Up 2 lbs

Things are taking shape for a good presentation at Rev3 OOB on August 26th.

    Jeff is funny!

    All looks great to me. New documentary for you to watch, btw–American Meat. I think you’ll find it interesting, even though you are veg.
