This is pretty funny -
My sister just called me and asked me about my recent alcohol consumption.
Since I don’t drink, I had no idea what she was talking about.
She had been reading my site and was confused to see ‘Alcohol’ listed in my latest update.
After assuring her that I haven’t started to hit the bottle, I went back and checked my ‘Fitday’ account, and I noticed that I had entered several grams of alcohol where I should have entered protein.
As you can imagine, I feel silly, so I’ve written this post to clear things up. Thanks, Squirt!
Nope, I don’t drink. My drugs of choice? Krispy Kreme Donuts and Diet Mountain Dew!
Of course, when my little sister destroys me in the 5K we are scheduled to run, I might need a swig or two of something strong to ease the pain and humiliation. I know! REAL Mountain Dew - the hard stuff!
I have been away for a few days. I went to Atlanta, with my family, for a short mini-vacation. I will confess, I ate a lot more than I should have, but I haven’t ‘regained’ any weight. Frankly, I’m glad to be back home and back in my routine. I missed my workouts and my fruit! (Next time, I’ll try to do a better job of planning for the trip - taking some fruit with me, etc.)
I’m going to the gym in a few minutes…
I’m really, really, really looking forward to my interval training…
Did I just type that sentence? Exercise rocks!
I feel very sluggish and I’ve been researching “fasting”. I think I might go a day without solid food and see how things go. I’m not going to starve myself, but I want some time to spend in prayer - thinking about the next few months and focusing on losing weight. I’ve got a buddy who might join me here at No. Calories Needed for a little weight-loss challenge - he’s going to let me know in a few days - and I want to be in a decent frame of mind. I’ll probably have water and a little fruit juice - and spend most of the day in the Word and prayer. I am ready to lose weight, but I think a need to take a day and “forget” about food. I don’t want to have to worry about meals or meal planning - I think I just want to chill, have a mini-fast, and focus on moving forward. I’ll check in tomorrow and let you know how it goes.
