Banzai Burgers and Biggest Loser


My picture belongs on Failblog. Yesterday was to contain a lovely trip to the gym. I was going to ride the bikes, row a bit, and do some strength training.

So there I was...about to change for the gym, when someone said, "Hey, want to go to Red Robin with us?"



One giant Banzai burger (1,040 calories) with yummy fries later (Oh, can't forget the tower of onion rings for an appetizer!), we decided it would be appropriate to invite our house guests over for Biggest Loser drinking night! Besides, I had already skipped my workout for the night...might as well just make it worse! So we turned on Biggest Loser, and every time one of the contestants cried, we had a drink. Ever watched that show? They cry a LOT! And so the evening went, until we finally went to bed (much later than I should have, just to make sure I really destroyed the night).

All day today I felt horrible. It is the first time I've deviated from my workout schedule. Until now, I was rather proud of the fact that I've never missed a workout. Alas, the pride was immediately followed by the fall, in the form of accumulating coronary artery disease and liver failure.

Ok, maybe I didn't take years off of my life beacause of one Red Robin trip. But nonetheless, I regretted it. And it didn't even taste that good. The beer was kinda good, though. Not gonna lie.

So my post-binge workout today was no doubt a tough one. I was dehydrated, bloated, and had very little energy. But I finished 4 miles. And tomorrow I'm going to eat healthier. And no more beer. For now.
