DD, best not incur the wrath of Darth Angel, lest a smiting come your way.

If its any consolation, my gut tends to pitch a fit after a good cheat meal. It's already a little wonky. I'm gonna try to settle it with some caramel praline crunch ice cream...

Feeling sick? Eat some ice cream. I gotta remember that.

Pylon

Technically it was frozen yogurt. It may not have settled my stomach, but it did make me feel better in the grand scheme of things. I am still dealing with a sore throat, you know.

Don't be too angry with me, BG. Don't forget, I have to see it in my journal all week until the next cheat day.

Ugh. Feel like crap...again. My cough is still hanging around, and now my sinuses have joined in the act. This sucks.

Will probably skip the gym and try to recoup. I'm committed, though, to keeping diet clean. Blech.

I am going to give you the same advice you gave me over a year ago while I had one my many colds (I will paraphrase of course): rest from the cold. One or two days will not hurt your progress but lifting with a cold may hurt more than your proggress...

You will not be happy because you will lift less than you normally do and are bound to really hurt yourself because you may try too hard to do something that your body at the moment is not capable of doing....

Get well soon my friend....

Thanks guys. No worries, though. When I'm sick, the last thing on my mind is lifting. I'm just trying to eat clean and rest.

Speaking of eating, I was "kinda" clean last night. I made paella for the first time. Oh man, that stuff is good. And it's mostly rice (this one with shrimp and scallops.) Other than the olive oil (starts with 1/4 cup, but most of that gets poured off), it's pretty harmless. Except the quick carbs. And the fact you can eat the whole batch at once if you really want to. (Not that I did...I shared with the wife.)

Mr. Pylon, congratulations on your first paella. You haven't lived until you add squid (the little ones) and your assortment of mussels...then you have a real spanish paella...I am not sure if that's unhealthy, but it's so good....

Get well soon buddy, want to see you lift again...

I did include mussels, but forgot to mention them. I'm a big fan. I've got a recipe for one with chicken and asparagus that I'll be trying soon. Once I get the bottom to carmalize the right way, I'll look into buying a real paella pan for myself.

That sounds about like where I have been. With being sick, I allow myself a little leeway. For instance, I'm taking the night off and taking my boy to the hockey game, so there will be arena food in my future. (The Blues have a Tuesday deal where under 16 is free and gets a free hot dog and soda if they wear the team logo. )

Hey all-

Had a great time at the game. Feeling better today, but have decided to delay lifting just to make sure I get all the way over the cold this time around. May do cardio tonight if I'm feeling really good.

Hope everyone is doing well!

Good move Señor Pylon, by the way, on waiting to get stronger...
It is fun to take the kid to a sporting event with you.
A couple of weeks ago, I took Anthony, my 3 year old to see Monster Jams (first sporting event for him) and I had so much fun.....

Anyway, this is your journal, why the hell am I littering it with my crap..

Well, I figured I should try to get all the way healthy, rather than go through this again.

Hey, your litter is always welcome in here.
