Happy Birthday! Enjoy your beer, and have some food too.

Today I have eaten: egg white omelet w/ham & veg, and a chicken salad. And a chocolate chip cookie.
I've also had:

1. Delerium Tremens
2. Ommegang Witte
3. about 3oz of Avery's The Reverend
4. 12oz Avery IPA
mmmmmm

I brought 3 & 4 to work with me and shared with about 5 other people. They loved #3 (one guy said it made him want to discover beer, LOL) and talked me into bringing a "beer of the week" to work every friday. Next week I'm bringing in some Belgian Trippel. I thought I'd bring in 2 different ones for people to try out.

I definitely made some friends today.

Indeed!!

Dinner: NZ sav blanc, yellowfin tuna ceviche, 3 tomato soups (about 2Tbsp each of brandywine, yellow lemon something-or-other, and tomatillo), 3 slices of different breads with 3 different butters, filet mignon with a truffle-veal-reduction sauce, asparagus, brussel sprouts, and a molten chocolate cake with graham cracker ice cream.

And to top it all off, a phenomenal 40-year old Tawny port that I could have sipped on all night. Wonderful, delicious, fantastic, spectacular.... mmm, birthday...

We bought a ConceptII rower from someone on Craigslist yesterday (used of course). It's a model C but the guy put a model D handle on it.

I did a workout yesterday - 2 miles on the rower (a little over 15 mins) and 25 minutes on the bike. I LOVE the rower. I think I'm going to add a couple miles of rowing to my 'off' workout days just to get in some exercise. It was fun, and it'll be a challenge to see how long it takes me to be able to row 2 miles in less than 15 minutes.

Nice catch - I mainly use the rower for a warmup, but have been known to do HIIT on it too.

NROL Fat Loss I, B5

Bulgarian Split Squat
3x10x25e

Romanian Deadlift

Good workout overall. I'm happy about DLing 3x10 more than I weigh now. Next up - squatting my weight. Only 35 pounds to go.

Yesterday's eats:

1. egg white omelet w/ham & veg
2. salad & laura's lean beef patty with 1oz tillamook sharp cheddar
3. 3oz baby carrots & half a chocolate chip cookie
4. salad with ff strawberry balsamic vinaigrette & a slice of PN hawaiian pizza & about a dozen grapes
5. a 1"x2"x2" piece of a chocolate torte I got on my bday Friday.

probably a little too much sugar yesterday.

I also got my bday present yesterday. A Nikon D40 with two lenses - 18-55mm and 55-200mm. I'm VERY excited about it.

LOL except for Friday. All food is zero calories on birthdays though.

Thanks, though... it's been a hard but great/rewarding year. I was just thinking yesterday how my arms look better than they have in my whole life. I've never had great arms or anything, but now they're actually curvy even when they're at rest. It makes me feel good about what I've been able to accomplish this year, not the least of which is my struggle with confidence and always feeling like the Chubby Girl(tm). You know, the pretty girl's chubby friend. The one the wingman talks to.

It's bled through into my job and hobbies as well. I'm oozing confidence now.
