Free Food

An entire weekend has passed without me blogging and I am certain you couldn't live on. But for those of you who did survive you won't be impressed with today's writings. I didn't log what I ate this weekend, although I can tell you Sunday was dinner at nanny's and there was lots of delicious carbs and scrumptious homemade desserts that would make even the most avid of dieters cringe. Things like; deer sausage, dove, and aside from the gamey meats, sweet brownies & homemade chicken pot pie! My family is made up of avid hunters, please take me seriously when I say this, they are indefinitely...for lack of a better word... obsessed with the sport. I'm fine with it so long as I get to eat their trophies in the different forms of protein-packed deliciousness.

The great thing about my family is that I am sure to never go hungry. Someone is always bound to feed me whether it is during the holidays, on a Sunday afternoon or even just 'because'. Unfortunately, free food does on occasion have its pitfalls. Like the trash bag full of left over Panera breads that we receive from Jeff's grandpa. I know you are curious how I get truckloads full of free Panera bread, but I cannot disclose that information. Now it is really killing you, isn't it? Just know, that it is not stolen and it is given at liberty. Back to the pitfalls, why free food can be bad. It is bad because it is so easy to accept these gracious gifts and even easier to consume them, unfortunately enough, my diet cannot always benefit from the menu at hand.

So over the course of the next couple of months, I will be pulling out loaves and bagels from the freezer and eating them at my leisure. Is it the best thing for me to eat? No. Is it free? Yes. Do I make any money right now? No. Therefore I am eating all the free food I can get.

Yesterday I did 1hr20min on the elliptical, no lifting.
