@Newlife , have you been to Chandlers in east Knox? Good for a cheat day!!

 

Usually sirloin, skirt, or flank. I tried bottom round last week too chewy

 

I don't think I've been to chandlers I may have though what kind of food


My wife just confirmed we have not been and it's fried chicken which I don't eat. Even on a cheat day. But thanks for looking out.

 

Finally remembered to log everything I ate today in MyFitnessPal. Wow. I need to step up my eating game. I don't eat nearly enough.

 

They do have fried chicken but also ribs, pulled pork, collard greens, etc. Good soul food

 

Most people don't. But you don't realize it until you actually track it.

 

No kidding. I need to gain weight.... guess it's time to start eating nonstop.

 

Hmmmm then you may have my interest

 

My friend took us to Sweet p's also..pretty good

 

Just to give us an example: from waking up to now, what has been consumed today?

 

Not enough. 2 cups frosted mini wheats, PBJ, complete cookie, chipotle burrito bowl, protein shake, 2 bratwursts

 

Time to add eggs, oatmeal, toast, etc to those mini wheats just to get goin

 

I know. I'll probably start hard boiling some eggs again and take 2 with me to work. I struggle to get out the door in the mornings on work days so my breakfast lacks. Weekends I always do it up with eggs, bacon, toast, etc. Used to keep the instant oatmeal at work, gonna have to buy some more of those

 

For 10 years, since I wasn't a morning person or didn't feel like eating 1st thing in the a.m. during the work week, I'd drink a meal replacement shake. Sleep is basically fasting so a protein shake before bed and 1st thing in the morning set the pace. Take some advice from this thread, keep researching, and go Big on eating and you'll get results!

 

Wake up earlier. I get up at 5 every morning so I have time to eat before leaving at 7:00

 

Love sweet p's but not as good as Memphis bbq.

 

Or California! I can't wait to check out Memphis! Never been to n. Carolina either but I like their style.

 

I'm up at 5 to leave at 6. I can't do any earlier. I already go to sleep at 9 most nights haha

 

Can't or won't?

 

Yes
