Health, Day 2

Alright blog followers (all 2 of you).  Didn't get a chance to post yesterday, but at least I was vigilant in taking some pictures.





Breakfast, 8 AM:  Butter chicken + palak paneer + basmati rice.In keeping with the advice of the Ferriss book, I opted to eat breakfast within 30 minutes of getting up.  Normally, this would be rare, since I don't have much food around the house.  Luckily, I had leftover Indian food.  Suffice it to say, things were not up to par once reheated in the microwave.  Reheated palak paneer definitely makes the list of foods that were not awesome for breakfast.

In more positive financial news, eating breakfast at home saved a few bucks that would usually be spent on hitting up the deli in my office.  Still, y'know, I enjoy getting a VitaminWater Zero to break the monotony of being in my cubicle all morning.


Lunch, 12 PM:  Chipotle burrito bol (black beans + fajita veggies + steak + mild/medium/corn salsa + cheese + lettuce) and a Diet Coke.  I had the same thing as I had for lunch the day before.  So sue me.  I do this all the time.


Happy hour, 6:15 PM:  As is the usual tradition on Wednesday evening, we hit up the Galaxy Hut for happy hour.  I started off with a porter from Ballast Point, and followed with an Allagash White.  




Dinner, 7:30 PM:  Cheeseburger + mushrooms & onions + Harp lager.  Look, lets be honest.  This was not a healthy dinner choice.  But it was half price burger night, and everyone else was going.  What kind of asshole was I to ditch out on that?  Anyway, the only minor healthy choice made here was to avoid the 20 varieties of fries that I had as options for a side and go for vegetables...sorta.


In a very minor saving grace for this day, I've gotten back in the habit of walking to the Metro, rather than driving to work.  This meant I walked a total of at least 2 miles yesterday (as well as on the day before).  Baby steps...
