Alcohol does not make you FAT

- it makes you LEAN

…. against tables, chairs, floors, walls and ugly people.

04 Aug 08 The Daily Plate

No Gravatar

Not one for going on about it, or ever wanting to get labled a diet-nit or a food faddist, but I’ve keep under my daily guidelines now for the last five days.

I’ve found some major ways are to eat less bread, and drink less beer, and fill up on fruits. OK, not news to many of you of course, and not even to me now, but it’s easier said than done sometimes.

Still I go into another week on a positive note. I’m doing this as much to try and eat more healthily as to lose weight, so even if the pounds aren’t going down very quickly, I’m still pleased.

The urges to pig out at the Waffle House at 1am have gotten a lot less.

25 Jul 08 Gloria Jeans, Crimper, and Salad

No Gravatar
  1. After a fairly long day working across town in Mount Pleasant, it was good to meet Katy downtown and head home. I needed a new CAT5 crimper, so decided to check out Centre Point Radio Shack in North Charleston for one. I’d been in Radio Shack at Northwoods Mall yesterday, but they told me they didn’t have any. Well it turns out that the Centre Point store didn’t have any either (although the web site said they did), but they called Northwood store and they did have some after all. All ready for next week now, when I’ll need it.
  2. After that, I couldn’t resist the smell of the coffee in Gloria Jeans and we wandered in. We’d thought about buying some Hawaiian Kona, and some Jamaican Blue Mountain, but as the price for a lb of each is just shy of a hundred bucks, we decided to make that purchase another day, and instead enjoyed iced coffee sitting outside. It was nice a relaxing.
  3. As I’m doing this diet thing, I worked out I’d nearly got to my self-imposed limits today, but as I was still a bit hungry, made a salad for dinner, and broiled a small steak, which was most enjoyable. I’m actually getting to enjoy the salads as much as the steak!
