21DSD: Day 20
I didn't get a chance to post last night, because last night B and I were out late, first to dinner at a fun, new restaurant here in Uptown that specializes in Southern style cuisine called the Boneyard, followed by a night at the Orpheum theater to see AZIZ ANSARI! It's our second time seeing Aziz perform live in Minneapolis, and for the second time, he didn't disappoint.
Of course, the hardest part about today (and weekends in general during the duration of this thing), was no alchohol when we went out to dinner. That drink menu looked TASTY! Man, I feel like a lush, that the thing I miss the most, and the thing I keep talking about over and over and over is that I miss being able to have a glass of wine, beer or a cocktail. Maybe that's a sign I need to cut back, which I've already promised to do. My rules on this will be limiting drinks to the weekend, and allowing myself a glass once during the work week if out for a happy hour or evening with friends. There. Concrete, clear, manageable.
Here's the DAY 20 (SO CLOSE NOW!) rundown:

Here's the DAY 20 (SO CLOSE NOW!) rundown:
Time Went to Bed Last night: 12:30 am.
Time got up this morning: 9 am. weeeee! so much sleeeep!
How I felt when I woke up (excellent, good, fair, poor): good
General Mood/Energy throughout the day (excellent, good, fair, poor): good/good. put in a few hours of work in the morning, which was no fun on a Sunny Saturday, but hey, gotta stay in the good graces of my employer and keep earnin' 'em dolla dolla billz.
Exercise (type/duration): Low impact today. Went to the driving range. Handled the woods pretty well today (heh! get your mind out of the gutter! Oh, that wasn't what you were thinking? Liar.)
Breakfast: Coffee with cream, bacon and scrambled eggs with onions, peppers and cheese.
Lunch: Snacked for lunch - apples, cheese, almonds
Dinner: As I just mentioned, went out to dinner at the Boneyard. I actually was able to choose a (mostly) detox friendly option, the "sweet tea" brined grilled chicken breast, with succotash, braised kale, creole aioli. The only "off plan" item was a little bit of corn in the succotash...imho its nbd!
Snack: see: lunch
