Saturday Night Fingers

I baked a pretty fab looking loaf of bread today. It's really a shame that I won't get to eat any of it - it smells AMAZING.

The fam will get plenty of enjoyment from it, though, so I'm at peace with that. Will be the first time I've not eaten any of my baked goods in a long time, and the first time I've ever not eaten any of a full-sized loaf like this...  But the effort that I'm making to reach my health and fitness goals is worthy of some sacrifice.

Tonight we had Longhorn's Steakhouse for dinner. I studied the nutrition info for quite a while before placing our order online; it was a tough choice between the 6 piece tenders and the 6oz sirloin. I opted for the tenders; I've been craving fried chicken something awful, and the macros were actually a perfect match for what I needed in my last meal of the day. The sirloin would have been too lean, truth be told - I would have needed to have eaten some type of side to hit my desired calories and fat-to-protein-to carb ratios.

Letting the food digest a bit before getting a workout in. Part of me wants to take the night off from weight training, part of me wants to let tomorrow night be my off day. Who knows - might screw around and lift both nights.
