Shallow Thoughts

Today's workout was hard. I had pulled pork nachos with a beer for dinner and told myself I would just double up the workout tomorrow (which never works). After putting the girls to bed and taking care of a few work emails, I started to feel a bit antsy, so I just jumped into the workout without thinking. I feel great now enjoying my fruit, yogurt, and sore muscles, but am reminded once again how miserable it is to work out on a full stomach. Maybe I'll remember that for next time. Maybe not.

Deep Thoughts

One of the contributing factors to last night's restful sleep was spending a solid 2 hours before bed reading this book:

I'll dedicate a daily blog post to a book review once I've finished. I spent a decade as a trader and usually approach financial decisions with a trader's mindset. . . Taleb looks at EVERYTHING with a trader's mindset and takes it to a whole different level. It's a fascinating read so far, can't wait to get to the meat of it.

Bonus Thoughts

I finally found some!

Dude, enjoying the good things in life is a vital thing to do.

I also workout at the gym 3 times per week, eat healthy, but damn, sometimes you just have to get a "trash day" and binge whatever you feel like getting hehe.

Cheers

Indeed, a good "trash day" in the diet keeps life interesting! I just have to remember to get the workout done before I go off the rails, not after ;-P

Been there, done that.... suffering :D

And where is the nachos :D
Iam waiting for food hihi 😂

I'm too embarrassed to post a picture of the nachos ;-P

Its okay if look so delicious

Interesting post, successful and healthy always for you @grolelo😊

I imagine how it feels to exercise and work with a full stomach .. So torture according to me ..

Yes very bad idea to workout with full stomach. Its is very nice to see that you are health conscious.
