Live and Let Diet

you bring enough fine cut?

Speaking of alcohol - What's in bourbon?

I looked up the nutrition info on 1 shot of bourbon, and it's about 100 calories.  However, there are no carbs in bourbon. 

So if it's not carbs, not fat, and not protein, where do the calories come from?

Doesn't alcohol convert to a sugar?  There's your empty calories.

Like I give a shit. If it's a choice between putting every one of those 15 pounds back on, or being sober for the clusterfuck on Saturday?  Call me Fatty McFaterson.

And y'all whine more than my 5 year old.

At the largest plate of chicken nachos I've ever seen in my life, but couldn't turn down a free meal.

Oooooo, Token's on the take.  Sold his sworn jackbooted thug soul for a plate of chicken nachos.

Damn, man.  Where's your dignity???

Oh, wait.  Bammer.  Forgot!!!

Calories from alcohol can be tricky due to multiple things, including whether you're a moderate drinker (one to two drinks a day) or a heavy drinker.  When consumed in "excess," the body essentially wastes calories from alcohol by turning them into heat as a means of ridding the body of the excessive toxins.

What's the takeaway from that?  Always drink heavily.

Can I save my two drinks a day and have them all on one day?  And still be a moderate?

If you save them for long enough you won't care whether or not your moderate, liberal, or conservative.   You might just go vote for Jesse Jackson as a joke.  But the next day you'll be like, "He fuckin' won?"

I’ve never been a big saver of the beers. If it’s in my fridge it’s just there getting cold and waiting on me for consumption.   

And I don't think I could ever be that fucked up to vote for the likes of him or his crew.

Been trying to mix up the workouts lately...do something different and not get stale.  Yesterday after church, I took the mountain bike to one of our rec centers here.  There are two tracks, one for running/walking and one for biking.  They are both 5K.  Made 3 hard rounds on the bike and in between each, I'd get off and jog a half mile. 

Doesn't sound like much but I hadn't done anything like that in quite a while and my legs were hating me the rest of the day and night.  I'm trying to think of more new things to do while I don't have any specific goal in mind.  I've watched a lot of Crossfit recently and am thinking about incorporating some of the things they do.  But, I know full well I'll never get totally involved in Crossfit.  I have no idea how those people aren't all in back and knee braces.  Maybe because they're half my age?  Naaaa...

No doubt. I used to have a heavy bag and gloves. Just throwing punches at the bag for a minute will get you incredibly winded.  I'd work up a routine in the garage where I'd hit the bag...do jump rope...push ups/sit ups...some dumbell work and start the round over. 

Would love to take a class.

go backpacking.  take a couple of long weekends up north.

But it's probably not a good way to get your balls back from her.  Seems like being nutless would make the cycling easier?  (Maybe that is Armstrong's advantage?)

One arm exercising is not going to help.

Need updates to guilt me back into the running!!!

I stepped on the scale this morning and hit 219...I have to stop the insanity!

Hit the gym at 5:00 a.m. for a light cardio session.  Will hit teh weights this evening.  Gonna' try and start back with a few morning cardio workouts added to my routine because that's where I make the most gains/losses. Still refuse to step on the scales because my weight fluctuates so much daily and I get depressed if I don't see what I want to see.  The diet is in place.  The alkeyhawl is kicking my sorry ass and holding me back.  I could be a contender if it wan't for the buzzes.

Here is an update.  My knee sounds like that tearing noise when twisting off a tree limb.  It hurts when I plant on it and it hurts when I turn in another direction on it.  I drank a shit ton of bourbon the past two weeks, but hey, they are empty calories, right?  I am at 215 and I don't see it getting any better until my knee stops hurting. 

Oh, wait, you wanted something where someone was actually doing good.  My bad.

I stepped on the scale yesterday and weight 165. 

I gained eight pounds in a month.  Whoop whoop.
