Okay, so staying up past midnight to finish binge-watching season 2 of Hemlock Grove on Netflix was a baaaaad idea. I realized this as soon as I tried to get up this morning. I’m definitely officially old.<\/p>\n

Today I was supposed to work out of our Cartersville office. \u00a0Unless I’m planning to be there quite a few days I don’t keep any food there, so planning my eats on those days can be a bit tricky. \u00a0In desperate need of caffeine, I hit the drive-thru at McDonald’s on the way up for a large Coke Zero and a Sausage McMuffin. \u00a0It’s not the worst thing on the menu and keeps me full until lunch. \u00a0I just can’t do this every day.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Usually when I’m up in Cartersville I end up going out to lunch with coworkers, unless I’m slammed during tax time, when I end up buying frozen crap to eat while I work. \u00a0Last night I managed to pack my lunch so all I had to do was grab it on the way out. \u00a0The restaurant selection up there is kinda on the meh side so I really wasn’t missing anything by bringing lunch today. Except maybe gossip, but I can get that without going out to lunch!<\/p>\n

Lunch today was a Greek turkey burger, spinach, whole wheat couscous, and carrot chips. \u00a0Once again I didn’t eat my berries. If I don’t eat them tomorrow, they’re getting tossed. \u00a0But they sure look pretty in my lunch.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Remember how I stayed up late watching tv? Yes, so that finally hit me this afternoon. \u00a0I had to make a Starbucks run for a cool lime refresher. \u00a0I love these during summer! \u00a0The venti is only 80 calories which is not too bad for \u00a0a big drink.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

So although I didn’t like last night’s yogurt, today’s wasn’t horrible. \u00a0It tasted much better and the texture was a bit better. \u00a0But I still prefer my Fage 2% blood orange. \u00a0Especially with a few dark chocolate chips mixed in. \u00a0Yum.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Dinner was some leftover sockeye salmon baked with jerk seasoning, baby spinach, and whole wheat couscous. \u00a0And some spicy lime pickle to perk things up.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

I got snacky after dinner. \u00a0I’ve got Pirate’s Booty in the little measuring bowl — this one holds 3\/4 cup in half the bowl and 1.5 cups for the whole bowl. One serving filled up the bowl. \u00a0I love love love Cadbury chocolate from outside the U.S., so when I saw Flake bars at the Indian grocery store I snatched up a few. \u00a0One bar is about 175 calories which isn’t too bad. \u00a0This really could have been worse — most days I’d probably snarf down the whole bag of Pirate’s Booty and eat more chocolate to chase it down. \u00a0I went a bit over my calories today but I was under yesterday, so it balances out.<\/p>\n
