Eating update
Categories: Food
Since Sarah has gotten here, my eating habits have returned to a normal range. I've returned to about 12oz of Coke per day (some days more, some days less). We're cooking at home quite a bit. Wednesday night Sarah cooked salmon with dill sauce, peas, and Rice (well, rice-a-roni). My big weakness so far is the wings at a local sports bar -- Lukes. The wings are great, with the best teryaki wings I've ever had. The place is pretty inexpensive, too. Since Sarah and I have yet to get cable, we end up there once per week to eat wings and watch baseball. Probably need to cut back on the wings.
We've also joined the local YMCA, so I was at the gym three times this week. That's a good thing. The Y isn't the fanciest place in the world, but it's inexpensive and convienent for us. It's only a couple of blocks from my office. We were spoiled in Charlottesville, since Sarah worked for the nicest gym ever and we got free memberships as a result.
Sarah's younger sister is here this weekend, so we'll be out and about a lot. I've no doubt we'll be eating out quite a bit as well. Next week, though, I'm going to pick a "no soda day" and try to avoid Cokes and the like on that day of the week from now on. In fact, I'll take suggestions as to what day it should be. I'll be teaching Tuesdays & Thursdays in the fall, so it should probably NOT be one of those days. But the other days are open. Thanks for all the encouragment on the new eating plan thus far.
