It's tricky to log when you are driving and away from any service... but I did pay a lot of attention to what I ate, and tried to stick to a plan as much as I could - packed Almonds and Pretzels pre-measured. Our trip that was supposed to take us from 8:00am - 10:00pm was more like 9:30am - 2-30am. Let's see about my daily tally here:
1) 8:00am Slice of Bacon 45 cal
2) 8:00am Mini Bagel with 1/3 fat Cream Cheese 170 cal
3) 11:00am 1/4 cup Almonds 140 cal
4) 11:00am 50 pretzel sticks 110 cal
5) 1:00pm Chocolate Granola Thin 80 cal
6) 4:00pm Chicken Pesto Wrap
5 slices of chicken lunch meat 120 cal
1 flour tortilla 90 cal
Spinach & Walnut Pesto 130 cal
1/4 Avocado 40 cal
7) 4:30pm 1/3 of a banana from Marshall 30 cal
8) 7:00pm Fruit Leather during hike 40 cal
9) 8:00pm Finished 1.5 mile hike with 300 ft elevation -200 cal
10) 8:15pm Saltines in the car (no restaurant in sight) 70 cal
11) 10:30pm Chicken berry salad from Wendy's (gross) estimating I ate 300 cal worth
12) Rouge bits of cashews since everyone else was eating them 50 cal
13) Finishing the kids Chocolate Milk 85 cal
Calorie Total: 1,300 - not shabby
I felt hungry, especially between 1:00 and 4:00. Our whole schedule was crazy. Phil bit off a bit more than we should have attempted in 1 day, but we made it to the farthest NW corner of the lower 48 states. The hike took us about an hour and a half, but we stopped a lot along the way for photos, there were about 5 or 6 viewpoints. Here's a family shot at the end of the trail. It was probably 7:30pm here, so a little early for sunset.
All in all, I'd say success.
For water, not sure I got my 64 oz in for this week's challenge if I only count water. Let's see, here is everything I drank with 0 calories, but I needed to stay awake to make sure Phil stayed awake:
12 oz of Diet Dr Pepper first thing in the morning
20 oz of Vitamin Water Power C
20 oz of Water from my first water bottle
36 oz of Diet Dr Pepper purchased with the kids lunch
20 oz of Vitamin Water Power C
20 oz of Water from another water bottle during the hike
36 oz of Diet Coke purchased to stay awake
I got 40 oz of regular water, and another 40 of flavored water, maybe that counts. I had to pee a TON, including a midnight roadside stop along 101.
