We had a power outage this weekend and didn’t notice for a couple of days that while the refrigerator did look and sound like it came back with the power (the fan was running and the light was on) that it actually wasn’t working any more. So we had to throw away a lot of […]

A Few Questions About Calories

November 19, 2007

I got to thinking this weekend about calories.  In particular, how many calories there were in some soup I was thinking of making from scratch.  Maybe this is a dumb question, but how do I figure out how many calories (and other nutritional data for that matter) are in something I make from scratch? I’ve […]

September 13, 2007

Yesterday was a good day overall; I put in 40 minutes of strength training in the morning and 25 minutes of cardio in the afternoon.  My eating was right on plan, in fact a little less than usual since I didn’t have much proteins that I would normally have for breakfast or dinner. At no […]
