Day 6

Today's not over, so I'll edit this for dinner and such, but also not a bad day. I'm bad at controlling my eating around others, especially at the fire house. Not sure why that is. I think when other people deal with food or offer up snacks, I just jump on it (read "Fat Ass").

Breakfast - Two scrambled eggs with cheese and toast
Lunch - Chicken philly cheese (Not bad) - good chunk of an Onion Bloom (Bad)
Snack - Hazlenut Coffee Coolata from Dunkin' Donuts - doesn't feel too good right now.

Need to do good by dinner.

What isn't helping is that I skipped exercise the last two days (Thursday are off days anyways), but I'm just not motivated to workout right now. I came home and tried to lift some weights, but I was out in the sun at Tumbull Day for 6 hours and I'm nasty and hot and need a shower and just don't feel up to it. Did a few sets of weights, but just can't do any more.

I think I'm going to call it quits today, have a healthy dinner and a quiet night and start fresh tomorrow.

Oh, the other big news - I bought my bike yesterday! I got a Trek 2.1 which was a bit more than I wanted to spend, but the sales guy had some good arguments for the extra $300 over a Trek 1.2 or a Specialized Allez, so I decided to take the plunge. Not the cheapest thing I've ever committed to, but you gotta do what you gotta do. I'm hoping my 1k+ investment is good motivation and pays off in the end.

Edit: I hadn't mentioned that I also had Italian ice earlier in the afternoon too.And for dinner I had a chicken garden salad. Very healthy, very nummy. Feel pretty happy about life all in all. Cannot wait to get my bike!
