Yesterday Lunch:
-that chicken kabob salad that i love with all my heart and stomach
-green tea
-fish oil

Dinner:
-chicken and broccolli from a new local chinese place. pretty good actually. it came with like a garlic sauce and the broccolli was cooked well and the sauce was not greasy. my girlfriend didn't seem to like hers as much (spicy chicken w/ peanuts) but that could be because she still was nauseous from the incredibly hazardous cleaning products we were breathing in the floor and bathroom of my new room (my girlfriend put her body and possibly her ability to bear children on the line for me so that i may have a nice place to live. this selfless body-sacrifice is just the tip of the iceberg of why she is the best girlfriend ever and i am an amazingly lucky guy for having her in my life. for this i am extremely grateful.) i was also nauseous and had a headache, but that did not stop my eating. i am moving into a new room that i am pretty excited about. it is bigger, and for the first time ever i do not have to plan my furniture configuration to maximize available floor space. there is enough space so that i could put my bed almost anywhere and it would be fine. i don't even know what to do with myself.
-vitamin water (grape)

Today Morning:
-coffee
-protein bar

Lunch:
-steak tips and broccolli from KnowFat. this place just opened and it still had all the new problems you would associate with a new place. the empoyees were still getting the hang of the menu, and the line got a little backed up at times. still, i like the idea of publishing the nutritional information and paying attention to whether the food served is healthy or not. the menu looks good: the steak i had was delicious and the broccolli was pretty crisp. there was a sauce on the side that for some reason immediately reminded me of a dentist's office, so i didn't really use it. the place was a little expensive and i have doubts about the accuracy of their nutritional information, but overall it was impressive.
in a corner they have like a mini-GNC with sports supplements and stuff which i found a little odd. i can't imagine they will sell much whey protein or anything there. no one really needs that stuff unless they're an athlete or something, and even then it's iffy. i wonder if the supplement companies are trying to expand their market from gym meatheads to the general health-conscious populace. for marathons i've always just had gatorade during the race and something sugary after and i've been fine with that. the fancy sports drinks with electrolytes can be awesome for hangovers, though. its probably just psychological, but i feel like i'm drinking my hangover away with those.
