Day 003: Remembering How to Say No

Managed to avoid going out for drinks with co-workers today. That would have probably ended up in about 5 beers and misc appetizers and a bowl of my room mate's cereal when I got home, and no gym. I hate it but I have no self control so the only way I can keep myself in check is to outright avoid social situations. I know that sounds really unhealthy and unrealistic but hey, it's what got me to this point thus far.

That said I'm about to go out and meet a friend for dinner, and HOPEFULLY a single gin and tonic.

A little concerned on the workout front. I think my bum wrist may be headed back towards tendonitis. I will go for a cortisone shot much earlier this time. I think I injured it last week on flat db presses, I'm just going to stick with barbells. Back also not feeling 100%. I may do a deload early and do it next week. I was really looking forward to heavy deadlifts next Friday :(

Edit -- Escaped a social event without too much damage. Salad and 2 G&Ts, not bad at all.

Diet

Breakfast:

1/2 cup raw oats

1 cup unsweetened almond milk

1/2 cup blueberries
6oz nonfat greek yogurt

Lunch:

Salad from whole foods. Arugala, spinach, beets, peppers, onions, garlic, green beans, asparagus, chicken, cashews, parasean. A couple of these almond bar things that I stole, probably loaded with carbs, need to stop doing that.

PWO:
1 apple
1-1/2 scoops whey
1-1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk

Dinner:
Chicken ceasar salad at The Ledge in Dorchester, no dressing. I drunk-ate the croutons but there was only like 10 small ones.
2 Hendricks + tonics
