Calories were really low, and I've dropped but it probably won't last (at least not as low as it is right now) for Monday weigh-in, as I'm off to Philly (and to see Thomas!) for a few days. I'll have access but time to log in will be spotty. Will be back Monday, late. Have a great weekend, everyone!

B: Grapefruit, coffee, toast
E: 7+ miles, trotting, running, trotting, running
L: Tuna with celery and green onions on toast
S: A delicious pear
D: Made up some shrimp boil (You boil bay leaf, some celery,half an onion, half a lemon, some red pepper flakes and a few peppercorns for at least ten minutes. Strain out the veggies. When it comes time to boil the shrimp, get that soup really rolling and toss in the shrimp for EXACTLY two minutes. No kidding. Frozen or not. Two minutes does those puppies. Chill'em down or start on them while still steaming.)
Yesterday I took the last of the linguine package (about 1/3 of a pound) got the boil boiling and threw in the pasta, waited seven minutes, (the pasta take nine to cook) and threw in the shrimp for the last two minutes. Meanwhile, I put a little olive oil on a plate with some garlic salt and basil. When the shrimp/pasta was done, I strained them really well, poured them onto the plate and tossed them in all the oil and salt and basil. So good.
And I had two glasses of wine, one ehh and one Beringer Merlot 2006, pretty good.

Jes, interesting info on that Dirty Bulgur recipe, thanks. I use reduced sodium, ff broth. Also, 97% ff ground turkey (i.e. breast) if that makes a difference. Oh, and it was six servings. Sorry, I know that was two weeks ago, but thought I'd get back to it.

Bethie, I'm glad that the inside out eggroll recipe is a hit at your house. :-)

My weight dropped more than five pounds the last couple of weeks due to my lack of sleeping, eating, and drinking. (Helluva way to lose weight.) It'll come up a 2 or 3 pounds at Tuesday's weigh-in.

I hope all's okay with you, mac.
