Cafeteria Challenge

Day four: complete! (Uhh...only 26 more to go. Eek!)

So after my routine breakfast shake (that my lovely roommate so graciously makes for us every morning!), I trekked to work for a ridiculously busy Thursday. I tried to give the cafeteria another shot for lunch, but it's just so hard to find things that are detox friendly. While everyone stood in line to get ice cream for Sundae Thursday, I set up camp at the omelette station for some scrambled eggs and veggies. Not a bad lunch, but it also wasn't spaghetti and ice cream. Blerg. Megan made dinner tonight and it was delicious. Fresh veggies, free range chicken, and brown rice mixed together in a stir-fry fashion. Yum!

The things that have been challenging so far aren't the obvious lack of caffeine in my life, the strong urge to eat every carb in sight, or my affinity for beer. Instead, my biggest challenge thus far has been boredom. I'm not sure if eating disgusting foods and drinking beer took up more time than eating healthy or what, but it seems like the evenings last forever now!

I love having extra time, but I think I'm going to need a new hobby (read: something other than knocking out my instant queue on Netflix) before this month is over. I'm sure there are things around the house I could do (lame), but I need a new project or social activity. Any suggestions? You can leave them in the "comments" section that you all refuse to use. :)

Tomorrow is going to kick ass. Watch out!
