Tuesday's Gone

Not a great day training-wise, but not the bust of which I was afraid. Because of what was coming later in the day, I was really careful during the rest of the day. Had the usual yogurt/grapefruit/string cheese for breakfast. Had half a turkey and swiss sandwich, a small cup of seafood bisque and a small chocolate chip cookie for lunch. That's it. Even picked up a piece of candy in the office, but ended up giving it away rather than eating myself. (As an aside, like CS mentioned, you never realize how much junk food is out there until you're making an effort to stay away from it; for him it's kid's snacks, for me it's the candy bowls scattered throughout the office.) All in all, a good day, healthy-eating-wise. Then came the after-work festivities...


I knew yesterday that I was going to the 'topes game tonight and was very worried about the culinary minefield awaiting me. Adding to that, guys I was going with met at the nearby BBQ joint for a beer beforehand. Caught up with them there, went to the game and got out of the whole affair relatively unscathed: pint of Guinness, hot Italian sausage with peppers and onions and a few handfuls of roasted peanuts. Not great, but not nearly as bad as I was worried about.

No running today, but back after it tomorrow. CS?
