A Tale of Beer & Bacon


 
I Sucked Yesterday 
  
That's not even counting the after midnight waffle house binge that I counted as today's breakfast (more on that later).
 
The day started off so good.  This is my first Saturday without the kids since I started this adventure.  When I woke up I did my daily workout.  I'm doing the Free 5 Day Workout Challenge for Busy People from Fitness Blender.  This was day 2.  I dropped the kids off and then went to the gym.  I spend 30 minutes on the treadmill walking at a pace of 3.5 on a 4 incline.  It was a tough workout.
 
Lunch 
My gym is behind Third Base Grill. Leaving the gym I could feel a grilled cheese and a beer calling my name.  I responsibly-ish gave in.  I'll log these calories and eat in moderation the rest of the day, it will be fine.
 
Afternoon Snack
Around 2pm it seemed like a good idea to go over to chips for ONE BEER.  I went to Chips, had one beer and left.  Success! How's that for will power bitches!
 
Dinner
I want prosciutto bread from The Boot so bad.  That's it - I don't care! I'm having prosciutto bread from The Boot and a beer to go with it of course!


2nd Afternoon Snack
I'll have ONE BEER with my homie.  Everything in moderation?  Except there ended up being several friends there and then *poof* the beers were flowing.  Enter a gentleman friend of mine and I leave for the night after 3 beers.

3rd Afternoon Snack
Let's have a beer on the porch with my neighbor! 

2nd Dinner AKA After Midnight Waffle House Binge
(Actually I decided to count it as today's breakfast since it was after midnight.)
The aforementioned gentleman friend kidnapped me and took me to Waffle House.  It was a harrowing experience.  It's hard to talk about so I've created this artistic rendering of the event:



I'll Do Better Today
615 Calories are already gone from my After Midnight Waffle House Binge.  I'm heading out for lunch - Mexican - grilled chicken and grilled veggies.

Tomorrow is weigh in for the challenge at work.  Here's hoping to a couple pounds lost in spite of Saturdays' shenanigans.
