It is hard to see May 24 without thinking Victoria Day. It’s one of those moveable holidays – the Monday before May 25. Anyway, that was last Monday which is what made it possible to head down to Ohio for the half. This weekend is Memorial Day in the US. Also a moveable holiday – it’s on the last Monday of the month and honours the men and women who died while serving in the US armed forces. Births and deaths. Sigh.
Okay that got a little sad. On to other things.
We definitely did not stick to plan in Cleveland. After my half in Cleveland we went to a place called Melt with my friend. She stuck to her guns food-wise but I couldn’t pass up “the big popper.” Jalapeño peppers, herb cream cheese and cheddar sandwiched in between yummy bread oh and then the whole thing is deep fried! Sigh. And two pints.
We slid right back in to keto eating on Monday though. Tracked food every day on myfitnesspal and am now down another 2 pounds which means I’ve lost 14.5 pounds since May 1. New this week – I ate cauliflower. Seriously, this is a big thing. Usually the smell of it makes me gag but not this time. Toby made it with a keto-friendly cheese sauce and while not my favourite it was definitely edible.
Sorry for the short post today we’ve been a bit crazy around the house this week. And I have another half tomorrow and some laundry to catch up on!
