Slow Jan

January 24, 2009
People are pretty much gone these days for school. It’s all been pretty chill with sitting around at my place and stuff. Kenny, Miah, Hasan, and I are around in Great Neck. The Jets are playing today. Things are planned really poorly. I wanted wings today, but end up getting chicken at Wendy’s. We get some soda and beer at Walbaum’s. I’m still working these days and need to get cracking on the LSATs.
Other than that, I’ve been trying to stick to my diet and workout. The workout has been going out pretty well, but it’s been really cold recently and I haven’t really been able to run. I ruined by diet for the past few days with Chinese food, fast food, and drinking. It’s the weekend though and when people are gone, all of that will be a treat once in a while. During the week though, it’s good. Keep the workout going. Keep the protein high, calories and fat low. I’ve stocked the house with proper food so I either don’t have anything to eat or go healthy. That’s the way to do it.
After working out, I go to make some food. Grandma is staying at my aunt’s so I have to cook for myself. There’s fish in the fridge, so I want to cook that. It’s mostly bones with some meat, so that’s perfect for a fish soup. Cook that in water to make a stock, remove the bones and get the meat off for the soup.
Sweat some onions and celery. Add the stock until a boil. Add broccoli, frozen veg (peas, carrots, beans), a can of beans, pasta, and bay leaves for aroma. Badda bing, delicious.
For dinner, blueberry yogurt, ice, skim milk, half an apple, half an orange, a banana, and half a scoop of whey in the blender. Delicious smoothie.
For lunch tomorrow, I have leftover chicken. Only keep the white meat. Cut it up. Add celery. Mustard, pepper, low fat mayo, salt. You got chicken salad that’s healthy. Put it on with protein fortified whole wheat with lettuce and tomato. I guess that’ll be for breakfast. Along with probably some soup that I just made that can be microwaved. Some Special K protein. Some ice coffee without sugar.

Jenn’s back from Seoul, though she’s back at school. I tell her that she has a lot of stuff to fill me in on and I tease her with some of the shit that’s been going on here. Come to think of it, there has been quite a few fun stories.
Haven’t really been doing much these days. Chilling with the dudes here and there. Corinne was in the city the past two days so we hung in the city. Tonight is Kenny’s b-day, so I guess we’ll see what happens.
I’m really disappointed that I haven’t hit up restaurant week yet. However, they don’t do Saturdays, which messed things up because I made ressies earlier in the week and didn’t realize. Tomorrow is a meh day because restaurants have to go out of their way to participate on Sundays. Also, it’s the day before so I can’t reservations. Hopefully something will work out soon.
