a Hillbilly diary

well I don't have to worry about my calories being over today. with both pieces of toast and a scrambled egg with two more pieces of toast I'm up to a grand total of

350 calories.......

I'll probably try and get some crackers or some such down down for a grand total of 500 calories.

anyway my trip to sanantonio is tomorrow or today rather. The way I feel is after that I'm do for at least one solid day of sleep.......nite all.
 
you sure you added those calories up properly Hillbillie?
I have a thin piece of whole wheat bread at about 92calorie each, and medium sized eggs at 67
Thats 365 cal for just the toast + 67 for a medium sized egg

Maybe im reading it wrong (what you said).
 
the wheat bread i use is 70 calories each and the eggs are 70 calories. so 4 pieces of wheat is 280 then the egg at 70 makes...... 350 calories.
 
I can't say I'm feeling better but the day quil seems to help some. Since all my back surgeries my immune system is still low and the smallest cold hits me like the flew but it should pass soon.
Today is the day I go to sanantonio for the job fair so wish I felt better but should still be a good trip all the same. Just the 3+ hours on the charter bus each way is really gonna bite. It's always more boring when your not the one doing the driving. I wasn't sure about going but they had me a buffet lol. My appetite still isn't totally back yet so we will just have to see how that goes.
 
I LOVE San Antonio...it's one of my favorite places in the whole wide world! :) I hope you get to feeling better soon. Try and enjoy the day as much as possible. Easier said than done, I know. And try and get some fuel into your body.

Whitewheat bread, by Nature's Own is my favorite. I've converted many friends and family to it. It comes in a white bag with blue and red writing.

It has 55 calories per slice, 1g fat, .25g sat fat, 0 chol, 125mg sodium, 11.5g carb, 2.5g fiber, 1g sugars, 3g protein.

15% calcium, 12.5% thiamin, 10% niacin, 10% iron, 12.5% riboflavin, 5% folic acid.

It tastes good, the texture is between that of white and wheat bread. Made with unbleached enriched whole wheat flour. It costs more than a loaf of white bread, but doesn't go stale as quickly, so you can use it all up and not waste any of it.
 
Oh, I'm always looking for a better bread source. My bread ranges from 110 to 120 calories a SLICE! I rarely ever want to give that many calories to what ONCE was one of my favorite things to eat!

Randy, I hope you have a great day!
:)
 
I have noticed the cheaper brands seem to have less calories rather than the high end stuff. The wheat taste doesn't seem quite as strong but right now I'm looking more for the reduced calories rather than a strong tasting bread.
 
Well the job fair went went other than getting home very late; or early rather.
So didn't make it to school but I do have an interview later this week. It's not the exact job I want but it will at least get more money into the house. If the job goes well I can to another location after school is over and they are splatted all over. They kept pushing west coast; ummmm I don't do California lol. I'm thinking up around Dallas or possibly Illinois or Massachusetts.

Massachussetts and southern New Hampshire have tons of technology type jobs for you smart engineer types.. downside to it - cost of living is astronomical... but if you like 4 seasons, wacky accents, beautiful colors on the trees, clam chowdah, Red Sucks it's the place to be :D


and crapola -=I missed your birthday - i hope it was a terrific one.. Happy belated birthday to you...
 
Weight Watchers also has a wheat bread that tastes exactly like 'regular' white bread...it's yummy! I'm starting to think that Weight Watchers really knows what they're doing!

Anyway...just poppin' in to say 'HI!!! and Happy Birthday!!!'
