Today went so well that it deserves a little of the Duchess of Cambridge up in here.
Then I went to the work gym to walk on the treadmill, but they were all taken. It was a true first world problem. So I did 1.5 miles on the elliptical in about 10 minutes, which the elliptical said burned 16 calories. And then I did 2 miles on the exercise bike for 10 minutes, which the bike said burned 82 calories. So I think the bike and the elliptical are drunk. But all I drank was 4 more glasses of water.
It began with little weird protein cheese (Andrew--protein!) and four glasses of water. Lunch was 3 ounces of a pork chop (Protein! Measuring!), a cup of blueberries (More Measuring!), and a salad that was 3 1/2 cups of veggies with 2 teaspoons of lemon olive oil (OMG All the Measuring!). And finally, a tablespoon of chocolate chips (will there be no end to the measuring?!?!?).

Then I did my upper body exercises. And THAT's why I win the gold medal of life. Suck it, Shame Squad!
We had a Cousins Dinner at Logan's tonight (Jonathan is the funny man, Josh is the straight man, and I always end up crying from laughing). Surprisingly, for a place where you throw peanuts on the floor, Logan's has an awesome healthy menu. Amy and I split an appetizer that was shrimp and black bean salsa, and then I had a lettuce/tomato/carrot salad with fat-free dressing, followed by a grilled chicken breast (I ate half and brought half home) and some mashed potatoes. I had two glasses of unsweetened tea to drink. And I ate half of a roll, but I didn't touch the butter! Or the peanuts!
So, to summarize:
Do all the cardio? Check!
Blog all the food? Check!
Measure all the things? Check!
Tomorrow's difficulty: pizza and beer with friends!
