1. food: ok fine i had a mcdonald's bacon and egg mcmuffin. they are sinfully delicious and no one should be ashamed of eating such a beautiful creation. for lunch i had chili, added corn, and then ate some more canned mandarin oranges. so far today i have consumed 591 ml of water. later i am going to make a caesar salad w/bbq chicken & penne, and then some more canned mandarin oranges.

2. fitness: great workout and, following the suggestion from the Self Challenge, made sure to include 30 min. cardio (i have not been doing too much cardio in the past couple months). the Self Challenge goal is 3x30min. of cardio/week, and 2x25min. strength training. great start to monday!

3. after my beautiful shower i will continue reading the collection of essays edited by balch etc. my goal is to read 6 books today, b/c i am delusional. however, i do have until tomorrow 6pm, and at least i have the book reviews for 4 of them.
