Bryan and I went Rollerblading on Saturday, cause you know, what better time to do it than the middle of the afternoon on one of the hottest days of the year. We ended up going approximately 10-11 miles round trip. Lots of hills on this particular trail too, so that was both grueling and fun. Anyway, I made two regrettable mistakes: First was assuming there would be water fountains somewhere on the trail. I don't think I've ever experienced thirst quite like that before. Second was wearing shitty socks, cause I ended up forming a blister about the size of Connecticut on my left foot. Afterwards it also felt like all of the bones in my foot had been welded together, but that pain subsided rather quickly. Celebrated surviving this by going out and eating more than I should have, but I think I deserve it.
Other thoughts on the two week mark:
1) Once you get used to not eating anything tasty, its not quite as bad.
2) Frosted Mini-Wheats may be the world's perfect food (fuck you Chicita Bananas).
3) Exercise is getting easier, may have to ramp up the resistance on the cardio machines.
4) Enough spices can make any meat taste like any other meat (e.g. Turkey Italian Sausage)
Here's the updated diet/exercise log:
Wednesday: 1300 Calories; Light cardio workout; 20 minute sauna
Thursday: 1400 Calories; 20 minute intense cardio; 100 crunches; 100 girl pushups
Friday: 1300 Calories; Day off to rest back and prepare for rollerblading
Saturday: 1500 Calories (including delicious lobster ravioli); 10 mile rollerblade to death
Sunday: 1100 Calories; 25 minute intense cardio; 36 bench press reps; 20 min sauna
Questions for the Commish:
1) At dinner, the waitress brought out free ravioli appetizers and refilled my pink lemonade before I could switch to water. I have a hunch that Bryan made some calls and set this up to screw with me. Do I need proof, or can I go ahead and have him thrown to the lions?
2) Still trying to determine how to set up the prize payout for this thing, any thoughts?
3) We need a decision on another important matter: What is the ruling on alternative forms of weight loss, especially the days leading up to the weigh in? Can we go get colonics? What about giving blood or starving ourselves? Is this a no-holds barred competition? And what's this about the office being behind. Where does our endless revenue stream go to if not for quick rulings on these matters? That is all.

3) Dan Akroyd/Harold Ramis: Seriously find a before/after picture of these guys. At least added a cumulative 150 lbs since the ghostbusters movies were made. The picture is of Harold Ramis (Egon) recently. Thats at least a 100 pound gain. Well played sir.

I would suggest trying bison meat for both of you. Here's an article about it here, but it's leaner than beef AND chicken: "Bison meat is very lean and has become popular in supermarkets. It contains far less calories and cholesterol than either beef or chicken. For example, bison meat contains 2.42 g. fat, 143 calories, and 82 mg. of cholesterol per 100 grams of cooked meat. By comparison, beef has 9.28 g. fat, 211 calories, and 86 g. cholesterol. Skinless chicken contains 7.41 grams of fat, 190 calories and 89 mg. of cholesterol."
The downside is that it's more expensive, but I find it to be delicious (I would say it tastes at least the same as beef and better than grilled chicken)
