There's barkin' in the kitchen...

I did not get up in time to run this morning.
I did not eat a good breakfast this morning.

I had a bagel with some "low-fat" (compared to what?) cream cheese and a bottle of water for breakfast - so much for the "King" of meals on this day - and yes I am also totally out of the pre-made shakes. My preparation really blew chunks today.

I had a liter of Yerba Mate over the course of the morning and a grapefruit.

11:00 am - 12:00 pm
I went to the Gym and spent 40 minutes on the Stair Climber (Avg 156bpm) followed up with 10 minutes of "Combat Conditioning" based stretching.

This afternoon the diet got better I had 2 scoops of Cytosport Muscle Milk Light w/ 12oz of water immediately post workout. Another liter of Yerba Mate throughout the afternoon with an orange, a serving of steamed fresh organic broccoli, a tomato and an apple strewn in for good measure.

For dinner I had 200gms of Tilapia (sauteed and seasoned) with more steamed fresh organic broccoli, and a tomato

And now I'm having a glass of Fat Bastard Chardonnay and going to bed.

Thus endth my Monday.

Cheers.

Went to see a movie today Never Back Down. It wasn't much more than I expected it to be - a teen movie designed to cash in on the UFC craze before it peaks. It'll probably scare some adults into thinking this sort of thing is deriguer amongst the phenonmenally wealthy and beautiful kids that their teens go to school with ...meh....it didn't suck
It was OK
The only reason I really went to see it was for the prominent shot of the protagonist training with what appeared to be a 20 or 24kg Kettlebell (sweet!). The movie actually had about 3 or 4 different shots of the protagonist swinging the bells. It should get some interest going among the teen crowd - interested in what they perceive to be a "cool" thing since it was in a movie supposedly targeted at their demographic. We'll see. Still it is publicity so lets take it.

16 oz Water on rising

It's Time

It's been basically since the 29th of December - around Flu time - since I actually did anything very healthy in any sort of meaningful physical, nutritional, mental, fiscal, or most of all spiritual sense. If you want to feel good then you have to do good things.

Or, more to the point:
"If you do good things, good things will happen."

Bottom line: It's time to get moving.

This morning: Run, 2 miles, 28:33, Avg BPM 129

Diet:
1 Bottle of water (pre-run)
2 Scoops Muscle Milk Light
16oz Yerba Mate w/2 Tbsp Cream
1 Grapefruit
Leftover steak (approx 3-4 oz)
1 Orange
1 Apple
1/4 Cup Peanut Butter with Handful of Raisins
