Chinese & the gym

Last night my husband & I went out to a Chinese restaurant because he was craving their food. I really was nervous going because I LOOOVE all their food but it’s soo packed with grease & salt! But, gotta make exceptions once in a while (that’s what he said), so I ordered the singapore chicken.  Good thing was that it came with lots of vegetables, but had some rice on the side! I told my husband I wasn’t going to eat the rice but again he said I should eat some of it. Ate about a quarter of the rice & most of the dish, and had a fried chicken wing (it was TOO yummy to pass up)! Packed the little leftover I had left because I hate throwing away food :( I had the leftover for breakfast.

Therefore, because of my splurge last night, I worked extra hard at the gym this morning. 1 1/2 hrs at the gym. I swear I have not sweat that much in a LONG time! I felt great!

Do the gyms you all go to have air conditioning? One thing I hate about the campus gyms is that they are not air conditioned! The weather is starting to get warmer & more humid here in WI, so the gym is usually twice as warm as it is outside because of all the people sweating inside the gym! It’s kind of gross. Like today, the second I stepped inside the gym, I felt the warmth & the atmosphere was totally different from the (air-conditioned) lobby…………

    Yeah I am glad I am not a gym go-er. First its smelly, tho sometimes we can see cuties here and there but they smell! ANd its such a turn off.. LOL! Working out at home is also an option.

    On the chinese resto. Err.. I ate chinese food for all my life, then switch to healthier choices (but cant control the portion) when I came here. Most are westerns. I know how u feel. Bokchoy is still ma best friend tho. U can do anything with it! Take a good look on hotplate menu tho, they r usually great veggies, right. And perhaps u can ask them to lower the grease and salt. Juz say for health reason??

    the gym in my apartment building is tiny AND unconditioned -___- sigh…
    it looks like you handled your chinese restaurant outing super well! I’m temporarily avoiding eating out cause I have less self control, haha
    good job!
