Dietary dream

I was in an expensive restaurant with some friends and they had a funny menu with items like "Myocardial Infarction" for a 72-ounce steak and "Cardiac Arrest" for some other yummy portions-out-of-control dish.

I was trying to order a small filet, rare, and a plain baked potato when I woke up.

I guess this calorie counting is affecting my sleep, eh?

But even in my dream, I really, really wanted to order the "Myocardial Infarction" instead.

I was in the Netherlands during the Clinton scandal with Monica. They had a Lewinski steak over there. I had the restaurant make a copy of the menu.

You're doing Steelhead too?! That was my "gone and signed up for a race that's beyond me" race.

How are you liking fitday.com? I used Spark People and am wondering how the two compare.

we jokingly refer to big cheeseburgers out here as a 'Double Bypass with Cheese'

I wonder what they'd call the big brownie with ice cream that I splurged on this weekend?? Good for you for keeping up with the calorie counting. I am now obsessed with Fitday. I went ahead and paid for the upgraded version. I love it.

I think you've got something there. I'd certainly pay a visit to a restaurant that had those items on their menu, just for the fun of it!

I have trouble finishing 8oz....couldn't even imagine attempting 72oz. Oddly enough I however have no problem devouring a large pizza...lol.

Ugh... i hate calorie counting. Now that I have my training plan on training peaks (a perk of my new coaching job) I may try their nutrition software out.

Wow, talk about willpower! You were even being good in your dream!! A plain baked potato? That is strength.
