Day 385A: Where The Crap Have You Been? Edition

Posted on by

[Insert so witty comment about blogging here]

So this kidney stone of a week has finally passed. It was painful when it was building up to this point and boy did it hurt when I got it our of my system. What’s on the agenda now? MORE HOMEWORK! The fun never stops here in Tallahassee (even when you’ve stopped and you’ve had enough.) [Insert Micheal Jackson dance move here.] Anyways, my eating this week has been pretty rough. I’ve tried to keep it in check, but it’s been hard with being so busy which has lead to eating out and grazing like a boss. However, soda has not touched these lips (no matter how tempting it’s been.) I have discovered the awesomeness known as flavored seltzer water which has no calories and no sodium so I’ve been throwing that back a lot this week. I’m finally going to get some exercise in this weekend with racquetball today and a morning run tomorrow. I’m running a 5k next Friday evening so I really need to get in to training mode to record a good time. I also still need to figure out my costume for too. Any suggestions? I really like the idea of just wearing a Flash shirt. It will be funny and ironic all in one. Hmmmm…

Anyways, in lieu of a Wordless Wednesday and such, here are a few pics from this week. Please note the food truck pics. Last night, we went out with some my friends from my department to this lot around Lake Ella where food trucks camp out on Thursday nights. Hipsters aside, it was pretty awesome. From a pulled pork taco with chipotle mac n’ cheese on top and a grilled pb and j, it was a good night. So ladies and gents, I give… PICTURES OF THINGS AND STUFF!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Day 360!!!

Posted on by

HI!!!!!

(Hello there! Thanks for reading!)

So I’ve been due for a decent weigh in, but for the past few weeks I haven’t been really sticking to it. This week, we have been working on our budget which has meant less eating out, which in turn has lead to less calories and sodium. Fun stuff. Anyways, this week I freakin lost 4.2 pounds! Which means I am down to 250.6 pounds! So close to jumping in to the 240’s! I’m so stoked. However, I really want to exercise this week, but my leg hurts really sore. I’m not really sure what I did during racquetball (I blame Jonathan) but it’s pretty sore so we’ll see what happens. Here’s to another week of weight loss awesomeness!

Breakfast: I just had a 4 point Nature Valley peanut butter bar. Yum.

Lunch: So on Friday, we got two large pepperoni pizzas from Pizza Hut for $11! (Thanks student discount/discount card!) Obviously, we didn’t each eat a large pizza on Friday (since this isn’t Nathan circa 2005 writing this) so we have a lot of leftovers. I had two slices which was still awesome! It’s pretty tight when you can spread an $11 food over at least 5 meals each.12 points.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Snack: After a nice Sunday afternoon nap and a few episodes of The Simpsons, we went and ran some errands around town. We stopped in to TCBY for some froyo! We also had a discount card for that so we got BOGO deliciousness. I had a waffle bowl full of chocolate chip cookie dough. It was pretty awesome. 8 points

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dinner: For dinner, we were both craving for some Chinese food, so we got some takeout from Panda Express. Before we got there, we looked up on the Eat This Not That app for the best entree. We both decided on beef broccoli which had an -A rating. For 3 points a serving, I had that with some brown rice we made at home. It was a pretty awesome 10 point Chinese dinner.

Then Megan made cookies… and they were awesome. I had 6 points worth.

So today, I unintentionally ate a lot of sweets, but that happens. This week I’m really going to be good with my food, not drink any soda (like I did this week. Water makes a difference folks!) and I’m going to try to at least go on a walk tomorrow and then turn it up a notch later in the week. 240’s or bust folks. See ya tomorrow.

Day 220: Done With Year One

Posted on by

Yes it’s true! I took my statistics final and I am cautiously optimistic about it. I knew the stuff and followed the steps which in statistics is all you can do so we will just see what happens! Either way, I’ll survive another day. I wouldn’t survive, however, if I keep eating the way I have been. I know I said I was going to do a better job this week with food, stress does some crazy things to your body (can I get a witness?) so I have eaten bad and have drank way too much diet soda and coffee instead of water so my I think my body is going in to reserve mode which eguals weight gain. I’m hoping to turn this rig around by Sunday so I’ll actually lose weight this week, but I’m also craving some bad food, like really bad (as you’ll see) because with the stress I’ve been craving comfort food and all I can think about it places to eat (which is what I used to always do which obviously didn’t turn out well.) I need to really detox my body and start fresh. I’m on a mental plateau and I need to get my head back in the game. This brainwash back to awesomeness will start tomorrow: summer.

Breakfast: I had a wafflewich because they are awesome and make me happy.

Lunch: So my final was from 12:30 to 2:30 so after we were done, we went to this cajun place called Po’ Boys to celebrate getting through the test and the semester. It’s a pretty awesome place with good, but super rich, creole cuisine. I had the Creole Sample with crawfish in this creamy sauce, bayou gumbo which was also cream based and red beans and rice. It was all delicious but I was stuffed after. Not sick, but just a lot more full than I’m use to.  As you can see, they didn’t skimp on the portion sizes either.

Dinner: I just had the other half of my burger from Monks yesterday which was just as awesome as it was yesterday. I also had some rice krispy treats.

Exercise: After an afternoon of cajun food and some residual stress from the final, I really wanted to hit the gym to burn some calories. (Warning: I am going to have a TMI moment, feel free to skip a few lines down… or you can just get over it.) So I haven’t bought new boxers in a while so as you can imagine they kind of look like I’m wearing a kilt when I’m wearing them. Well, I usually wear compression shorts to work out in but I forgot to put them on before I went to work out so I wore these flowy cotton boxers. When I got on the elliptical, the wedgie was unbearable, like turning into a sumo wrestler’s thong bad. So I had to quit, I went over to the bikes but it was still bad, then I did the rowing machine for around 15 minutes and by then I needed to go. I was a little frustrated that it was kind of a sucky workout but I’m playing racquetball tomorrow with Matt D. so that should make up for it.

So today was did have bad eating, but since you don’t get exercise points for using critical thinking during a final, I’m getting back on track tomorrow. Alright, time for bed. Royal wedding coverage starts in T-minus 3 hours and 35 minutes. See ya tomorrow.

Day 181: Weigh In Day!!!!!!

Posted on by

Why Hello!

It’s been way too long since I have posted and for that I’m sorry. I have gotten a lot of guff (yes, I said guff) from people about missing two posts in a row and for that I thank you. I really appreciate the support and accountability this community provides. It is a key contributor to my success so far and with the century pound mark in sight, your support is appreciated now more than ever. So thanks for calling me out Matt DC. I know you were just giving me a hard time, but it meant more than you know. So this morning I got in the scale with low expectations. We had to eat out the majority of last week due to the insanity of our schedule (somehow this week is going to be more insane. What what!) Anyways, for the few posts I did have, you saw the cheesey goodness that I consumed in mass proportions so I was just hoping to at least maintain (it would have been gained if I hadn’t worked out.) Well, my metabolism must be better than I think. I lost 2.2 pounds! Pretty awesome stuff!!! I am sooooo close to being in the 270’s now. I weigh 280.4 so super duper close. So with this week’s loss, I am 23.4 pounds away from 100 pounds. It’s getting there! Like I said this week is going to be bonkers, but we are going to be smarter with meals so 270’s: see ya soon!

Breakfast: So I made two packets of double fiber oatmeal but had it in the microwave too long. It always feels like when you make two packets, it either has the consistency of snot, or it blows up and gets all over the microwave. Well… the latter happened, and a large portion of my oatmeal was everywhere. (No, I did not eat the oatmeal shrapnel left in the microwave.) It was about 5 points worth of oatmeal. Yumtastic.

 

 

 

 

Lunch: After church, we needed to eat somewhere pretty fast so Megan could meet up with her friends for their study marathon. We ended up going to the Panera next to our house. Panera’s food is deceiving because you expect it to be healthy since it’s fresh but then it’s more points/calories than you hope. Regardless, it’s delicious so we still go there :). I had the half asain sesame chicken salad and half a Mediterranean veggie sandwich. It was really good and the salad was huge for just being half a salad. For the salad, the sandwich and the yummy baguette, it was 14 points. Not bad for how good it tastes.

 

 

Snack: While I was studying, I had 3 points of pretzels. That’s 30 pretzels. Holy cow.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dinner: So this was a little different. While Megan was studying with our friend Catherine, I was at my small group and they had gotten dinner. By the time I was done it was 9:00 so I was starving. Megan texted my with news of leftover Chinese so I headed over there. I had Megan’s left over orange chicken with rice and an egg roll. I was good at the time. It took me back to my favorite super cheap Chinese place in Abilene where you could get a mountain of food for about $4. While the savoring moment lasted for a while, I still have the sodium taste in my mouth as I’m writing this. Not good. So it was high in points, and I have no real way of figuring it out, but here is what I know: I’m not the same guy I used to be. A meal like this was what I ate at least 3 times a week and it didn’t phase me at all. Tonight, I tried to go back to my old self and it wasn’t near as good as I remember. That’s so encouraging to me. To me it means that it would take a lot to get back to where I was, and that’s how I want it.

Snack: We went to Publix to get some groceries including watermelon and Cinnamon Toast Eggos which I have never had. They were delicious and  2 points.

So today wasn’t the best, but I have learned from my mistakes and I plan to work hard this week to lose a good chunk of weight. It’s going to be an interesting week. Bring it on. See ya tomorrow.

 

 

FSU WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SWEET 16 BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Day 114: Wednesdayness

Posted on by

Sup Champs!

Before I start my typical ranting and food pictures, I just want to congratulate my good friend Christi for joining Weight Watchers Online! I’m really excited to watch her progress and celebrate her success. Definitely check out her awesome blog, The Frugal Novice. She has some great tips on saving some change and really awesome giveaways so check it out…. now!

Breakfast: I just had a bowl of cereal (4 points) and I forgot to bring a snack to my noon class so I was pretty hungry the whole time.

Exercise: So Matt and I had planned on getting some lunch and then get our racquetball, but then we decided to play first (which was smart. I’ve never played racquetball when I was full but I imagine it would not end pretty.) Anyways, it was a lot of fun and I worked up a really good sweat.

Lunch: As you can imagine, I was pretty hungry. We decided to try Jersey Mike’s which is pretty new to Tallahassee. It was the first non-subway sub I have had in… forever and it was pretty good, but no Jimmy John’s. I had the Turkey Breast and Provolone because the sign said the turkey was 99% fat free. Way to be tricky Jersey Mike! I got home and looked up the nutrition information and it was rough. My sub still had 15 grams of fat and it was 11 points. It also had almost 70% of my daily sodium. Pretty nuts, you could say I couldn’t get any nuttier OR CAN I!?! I kept looking at the nutritional info and most of the hot subs actually have trans fats. Those are still legal???? Pretty crazy. Overall, it was good, but I’m not sure when I’ll be back.

Snack: Megan and I went and studied at Starbucks. They just came out with a “skinny” Carmel Macchiato so I gave it a shot. It was actually pretty good and didn’t taste much different. I had the Iced Grande and it was 3 points.

Dinner: So far this week we have been pretty good about eating early, but tonight we ate a little late. I put some chicken in the oven and while that was baking, I made an awesome salad with all the fixins. 4 points. Then I steamed some broccoli to go with the chicken. It was really good. The chicken was only 3 points too!

So overall today, I ate 25 points while is not a lot but the sub really filled me up, but not in a good way. I’m really at the point where I don’t care how many points food is, rather I care about what I put in my body. Anyways, TOMORROW IS MY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!! Which not only means I’ll be 24, but I’ll find out if I beat my challenge to break 300 before tomorrow. I’m really nervous to weigh in tomorrow but we will see how it goes. Either way, I will break 300 and if it doesn’t happen tomorrow, it will happen soon. [Thinking thin] See ya tomorrow.

Day 79

Posted on by

I’m feeling sick. No bueno.

Megan has been sick and I have been fighting it pretty hard but I woke up with a little drainage in the back of my throat so that’s awesome.

Breakfast: in efforts to fight off the crud, I had a glass of orange juice (2 points) and when Megan had said that she was getting sick on Facebook, one of our friends suggested this home remedy that involved unfiltered apple cider vinegar, honey, and water. I wasn’t skeptical, I figured it would work, but I figured it was going to taste disgusting. And it did. I got it down and it actually really helped. It burned where it was hurting so I just equated that with healing.

 

 

 

 

Lunch: Since we were sick, we had some other food with healing power: chicken noodle soup (or as my dad called it: German Penicillin because that’s what my grandma made for him when he was little.) It felt so good down the pipe. Since it was only a point for a cup (2 points) I had two Hebrew National 94% ff hot dogs with buns which was 6 points. Not too bad of a lunch.

 

 

 

 

Exercise: Matt and I played some racquetball again today to try to sweat this crud out. I apologized to him in advance if I started to reek of apple cider vinegar half way in to it. (I don’t think I ever did smell, but I did sweat a lot more than I usually do.) Anyways, it felt good to get a good cardio work out. We played for a hour and a half so it was 22 exercise points which was just epic. After, I had 6 points of snacking which was baked lays and a chocolatey chex bar.

Dinner: I made some vegetarian chili at home because we just felt like staying in and recooping from this semester. I added a lot of Tabasco so I could clear my sinuses and it worked… for a bit. Anyways for two servings of chili and rice with cheese and a big glass of milk it was 19 points which is a lot but it really sticks to your ribs and keeps you a lot fuller than 19 points from a restaurant.

 

 

 

 

So today I got up to 35 points but with the workout points I’m alright. I have been bad and I haven’t been doing my sit ups and push ups so I got back on track by doing 75 of each between commercial breaks during the Biggest Loser. Feeling pretty good. See ya tomorrow.

 

Day 65! PaPaPaPaPaPaPOWER!

Posted on by

Thanksgiving Break (aka Christmas Break Jr.) has officially begun! And not a moment too soon at that. I can’t believe how fast this semester and even this year has gone by. It feels like only yesterday I started this blog. I guess this what happens when you are old… or having fun! Anyways, on to my day.

Breakfast: I knew that I would be out and about all day so I looked for something that would stick to the ol’ ribs. I found some Quaker High Fiber Instant Oatmeal deep in the bowels (pun intended) of the pantry. One packets was only 3 points so I made two for 6 points. It was definitely worth it and definitely delicious.

 

 

 

 

 

Lunch: I met with Megan for Lunch at Pitaria for a light lunch. The special today was vegetable lentil soup so since it was super cheap, we both got that. Don’t let this picture deceive you, that bowl is massive and totally worth the $3. The soup was 3 points and the pita was 4 points. It was a very filling soup and it felt even more filling because it took FOREVER to eat with this tiny spoon. (Hence my confused face.)

Exercise Matt is flying home tomorrow so we played racquetball and it was 2 hours of complete bedlam (yes… we played for 2 hours.) It was exhausting but it was soooo much fun. After 3 games, I won game No. 4! When we were playing, Matt was getting me to work on my serve and it came it handy. After we had played at least 6 games, the guys in the court next to us asked us to play doubles, and we said “bring it sons!” I went on 2 really good serving runs, one of which helped lead to another win! So That was win No. 3 this month! Granted it wasn’t against Matt but regardless it was awesome. We were better than them, but we were both really tired when we played doubles. Anyways, Matt keeps wanting me to get an action shot of us playing. I forgot again (which is actually for the best because we were both really sweaty and gross) but I did get some video footage of us wreckin’ shop on some little Freshman: So, I did some calculating and for 2 hours of high intensity racquetball, it was a whopping 21 exercise points. Holy Crap. After we were done, I got a Raspberry Royale smoothie which has low fat yogurt (legit) so it was only 5 points!

Din-Din: Once again, we went to Tijuana Flats (I know I know, we go there a ton. Enough that I am already the Foursquare Mayor. I think we have a problem.) It was Taco Tuesdaze so I did the chicken and black bean burritos. Like always, I dumped said burritos to act like I was eating nachos without queso. The meal was a little steep and I don’t think we can do taco tuesdaze anymore. Their website is really cumbersome, but from what I calculated, dinner was approximately 21 points. Ouch! Luckily I had the points but still I don’t think that’s going to work out anymore.

 

 

 

Today, I got to 39 points, but with the exercise points, I’m really only at 18 points but I’m full and feeling good. See ya tomorrow. THANKSGIVING IS THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW!!!!!! GET STOKED!!!!!

Day 63: The Ballad of My 10th Weigh In Day!

Posted on by

This is going to be an awesome week. How can you not love Thanksgiving? I love this time of the year so much, but I have never experienced it while being healthy so this is going to be quite a test. Bring it on yo!

If you recall last week, I had a really rough time at the wedding taking my eyes off the prize and focusing on a beautiful chocolate fountain. Well, I worked hard this week to try to make up what I didn’t lose last week and I think I did okay. I lost -3.6 this week! I’m really happy with it! What could make me happier? Um.. I don’t know, maybe being in the 310’s for the first time since my freshman year of high school!!!! It’s such an awesome feeling when you realize that you have found a system that works for you and works so well. What’s even cooler is that I am only 2.6 pounds away from being at the 40 pound mark (I can’t believe it as I just typed that!) So right now I am at 319.6 and I am 79.8 pounds away from my goal.

Breakfast: Didn’t happen. Yikes.

Lunch: After church, we went to Tijuana Flats and had their super awesome burritos. We had a BOGO coupon so it was super awesome cheap too! I had the Chicken and Black Bean burrito on a Wheat Tortilla with fat free sour cream and low fat cheese. The burrito looks small in this picture, but I was so stuffed after lunch. They pack it in there. I just emptied the contents of the burrito and put it on my chips to make nachos. So good, and the burrito and chips was 14 points.

 

 

 

 

So after lunch, we drove around and did some clothes window shopping. We went to Old Navy and I tried on a few things. It nice to actually to be a chooser and not a beggar while clothes shopping again. There was a time when if it fit, I bought it because it was slim pickens. I got a nice V-neck t-shirt for like 4 bucks. Then we went to Dillard’s which is where I buy most of my nice clothes because they have a pretty good Big and Tall section. One of the last times I was shopped there it was August and I needed to buy a pair of khakis. I had a hard time trying to find my size (which was a pretty high number. There are 3 numbers I will probably never say on this blog: my GRE score, my social security number, or my pant size (that is until it is much lower.)) Anyways, I just remember all of the frustration and the internal embarrassment of walking out of the fitting room time and time again trying to find a bigger size, trying on pair after pair of pants with them being too tight. Today, I tried on a pair that are 6 sizes smaller than the pair of pants I bought that day. They fit, maybe not perfectly, but the button didn’t shoot off killing an old women while I put them on. They fit. That’s when I realized I’m actually doing it. This is actually working. So after that awesome experience, we went and registered for the Turkey Trot and the shirt sizes on the registration form only went up to a XL but when they got there they had XXL’s so that was pretty cool. The shirt is legit. It’s a Under Amour-like long sleeve and it’s pretty light. I actually almost wore it to racquetball today it was that comfortable. Do you like my action pose?

Dinner: There are some days where I think I could become a vegetarian, then there are meals like this… We got some Turkey brats from Wal-Mart (as if we aren’t going to have enough turkey this week…) and we bought this huge vat of sauerkraut which will probably last longer than me because it was the only size. Anyways, the brats were only 3 points and they were really good. Plus sauerkraut is only 10 calories for a 1/4 cup! The buns were 3 points because we got white instead of whole wheat (oops.) I had the two legit brats pictured and then had one more with no bun. (Of course it came in a pack of 5 so we had an extra one so I took one for the team. ) It was a 15 point dinner which was so worth it for how good of a dinner it was.

 

 

Racquetball: Well I figured since tonight was a Blue Moon, I would have a good chance at winning. I got really really close 2 games, but I couldn’t pull out the W (I would make a terrible closer pitcher.) It earned about 13 exercise points.

So today I had only 29 points which is pretty awesome for how well I ate. See ya tomorrow.

Day 59: Things To Hang My Hat On

Posted on by

Song of the Day: I was a Lover by TV on the Radio. Listen to it now.

Today was such a good day. I worked on some homework and got to hang out with my awesome wife. I then played some racquetball, but more on that later.

Brunch: We (or I) slept in this morning (like until 9) and it was a little chilly outside which was nice because it actually felt like Fall for the first time in a few weeks. Anyways, yesterday I mentioned the yearning to make omelets but didn’t due to time constraint; well I actually made them this morning and they were delicious. All they had in them were onions, jalapenos and cheese, then we had bacon on the side. It was only 9 points for the omelet and bacon which was good for a brunchish time (we didn’t actually eat until around 10:30.) Also, next time you make eggs of any kind, definitely add some green Tabasco to it. It really hits the spot.

Lupper?: I’m not really sure what the time frames are for respective meals (I’ve been in college way to long to really know. Maybe you can let me know.) So since we were still full from brunch, we didn’t go to find lunch until around 2:30. I had a coupon for this new sports grill by campus and Megan needed to do some stuff up there anyways so we went to try it out. We walked in, sat down, looked at the menu options, saw that they served their nachos on a large pizza tray, and left. It was not the place we needed to be. I don’t know what made us think it would be any different. Don’t get me wrong, the food looked really good, but after this weekend I didn’t think I needed to eat anything else that would be disastrous to my colon. So we did what we needed to do on campus, and went to Monk’s grill. It was a beautiful day and they have picnic tables under trees so it was a nobrainer for us. I ordered the Vegan Veggie Burger with their Hot Chipotle BBQ sauce on wheat berry bread with a side of sweet potato fries. Oh boy was it good. I really have taken a liking to veggie burgers and I’ve been looking for a good recipe. If you have a good veggie burger recipe, send me the link!!! Anywho, Their sweet potato fries are so good but they have cinnamon and sugar so I’m sure they are not great for you but they are the best fries I have ever had. I went all Harriet the Spy on this meal to figure out the points. McCain’s sweet potato fries, which I’m pretty sure that’s what they are, were 7 points. Not bad for happiness. The bread was 3 points, and the patty was about 4 points. I was stuffed after and I had only eaten half of the burger and the fries! So awesome! For dinner part II I had the rest of the burger.

Racquetball: After Lupper, I was went and played racquetball with Matt. Probably not my smartest choice. We played pretty hard and I was exhausted. This weekend was catching up with me but it felt good to get a really good sweat going. 12 exercise points of awesomeness.

Snack: After church we stopped at Starbucks and I had my iced chai which was 6 points. I really need to make my own at home to save some money.

A few things to hang my hat on: So during grad school orientation, they handed out FSU grad school shirts and the biggest size they had was a XL. Since then, that shirt has been hanging up in my closet, laughing at me. You see I haven’t been a XL since… 4th grade. I have flirted with that XL/XXL line in the past but never have fully been there. Well, today I tried on the shirt and it fit. Not just fit, but it fit comfortably. In fact, I wore it to church tonight. It fits like most of my XXL use to fit. Keep in mind, I still have a long ways to go, but it’s a great start. I look forward to the day where I’m too small for a XXL and a XL (or even further in the future, a L) is all I can wear. Someday, and when that day comes, it’s going to be legit (and skinny!)

Now, Page 2. Megan and I took a lot of pictures this weekend and I am so stoked about how much better I look. It’s one of those things where you have this image of what you look on the outside, but when you see pictures of yourself you cringe in gluttonous horror.

After looking at these pics side by side, I really feel great. It was just what I needed after the frustration of this weekend. Definitely something to get me through next week which will be full of temptations.

So today, I got to 29 points. Legit. See ya tomorrow.

Day Double High Five!

Posted on by

Curt Schilling had the bloody sock, I had the bloody finger (I cut open my finger this week while chopping onions and holding the racket was torture.) I had lost two games already and was at the threshold of loss #3. I stood my ground, dug deep and went berserk. I finally beat Matt. It was glorious. As I was in the zone and gearing for win 2 (well.. maybe not,) the the room went pitch black. No, I didn’t pass out, all of the lights went out in Leach with no flood lights. So I think it might have been God saying “quit while you’re ahead” or something along those lines. And that was my exercise for the day.  I know this is out of order but I figured this would make a good introductory paragraph.

Breakfast: Before my group meeting, I grabbed two waffles for the road hooray for a 3 point breakfast. When I got to Club Stroz, I got a venti iced non fat chai latte from The Bucks. 6 points of caffeine happiness.

 

 

 

 

 

Lunch: I’m sure you’re thinking “Wait a cot dang minute! This isn’t Monday or Thursday! Why are they eating at Chick-Fil-A!?! WHAT KIND OF CHICANERY IS THIS???” Don’t get your chaps in a wad, Megan and I signed up for a Facebook fan appreciation day at our local Chick-Fil-A. We each got a free chicken sandwich and then we split a diet coke. I haven’t had a chicken sandwich there in such a long time since it’s more points than the nuggets, so it was a real treat. It was particularly delicious for 9 points.

 

 

 

[This is when the racquetball victory happened]

Dinner: Megan, my stud wife, whipped up this awesome dish we had a while back. What is it you ask? Oh, I don’t… maybe THE BEST PASTA DISH EVER!!! (That’s not Alfredo based.) You got it: The WW Pasta Primavera with Provolone. It’s a vegetarian dish with bell peppers, steamed tomatoes, onions and cheese. Keep in mind that this bowl pictured it pretty big so this is a big heaping helping. For this much it was 10 points which totally hit the spot after racquetball.The 1 point glass of milk was also a good choice here.

 

 

 
So right now I’m at 29 points so I think I might have some cereal or something. Maybe some fruit? See ya tomorrow.
