Hot dog.

Or hot veggie burger, I should say. I am eating a Boca "all American" veggie burger and it is the bomb. And it only has four grams of useable carb. I'm having my second one, no bun, with a blob of bleu cheese dressing with it.

I have had way too many refined carbs today. First, Suzanne brought me some belated Christmas goodies, one of which was some cashew brittle.....omg. I am not usually a huge fan of brittle, but this was excellent, not overly sweet or hard on the teeth. I made a pig of myself with it.

Then when I took the boys to the playground this afternoon, I brought along some of the wheat germ PB cookies I made yesterday. There is no white flour in them, but still. I ate three this afternoon because I was really hungry.

Then at Beth's I ate a small, but very rich and sweet, piece of fudge.

I did make it to a hot 90 tonight, a class filled with New Year's resolutioners. (Is that a word?) Me and one other guy were by far the most advanced practitioners. I just wanted to shout at them all "Don't be overwhelmed by the heat or the poses! Just stick with it and it'll be so worth it, I promise!"

I am going to buy myself a David Swenson "Short Forms" ashtanga video for a home practice, since I won't be able to do the intro to ashtanga series at DHY and it doesn't look like there'll be any chance of me getting to either of the ashtanga studios any time within the next few years.

I'm putting the rest of the cashew brittle out of its misery. Yum.
